Do not go gentle into that good night is metered how?

English

pychu [463]3 years ago
5 0

Dylan Thomas’ “<em>Do not go gentle into that good night</em>” follows an iambic pentameter. For that reason, each line of the poem (except the second one of the fifth stanza <em>Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,</em>) has ten syllables (five feet).  Each foot follows the same pattern: one unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable and so on as in the example

Wild men | who caught | and sang | the sun | in flight

The stressed syllable is in bold.

  • Top-left: Wealth worship. The landlord is so impressed and intimidated by the bank note that he barely dares to take it.
  • Middle-left: Impending doom. You can tell that the narrator is experiencing a sense of upcoming catastrophe through phrases like "I judged that there as going to be a crash." The situation the narrator is in also involves danger: "I must swim across or drown."
  • Top-right: Rags to riches. Taken literally, this expression means going from the poorest to the wealthiest one possibly can be. But in this context, it is more about 'social riches:' the character goes from being insignificant in the eyes of others, to widely influential.
  • Middle-right: Wealth worship. The landlord is willing to accept any of the narrator's whims simply because he is wealthy, but at the same time, he fears him and his power: "he hoped he wasn't afraid to trust as rich a gentleman as I was."
  • Bottom: Impending doom. The threatening danger here is expressed by the fact that a "thin crust" is all that keeps the narrator from falling into the crater.
