Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

It sustains the comparison of death to night.

Explanation:

The excerpt from Dylan Thomas' "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night" illustrates the theme of death. The speaker is distressed by his father's deteriorating health and urges his father to struggle with death. He suggests that there is no bravery in crying. He says those who would survive would see the brightness and goodness of life which only comes from fighting against death.

<em>The words "night", "close of day", "dying of the light", and "dark" sustains the connotation of comparison of death to night. However, he elaborates on the inevitability of death yet encourages the old people to stand up against the fierce nature of death. </em>He attempts to convey a strong message that "do not go gentle into that good night" and suggests that one should never fear death and realize the meaning of life before giving their consent to mortality(death).
