According to the above interpretation, <u>“the dying of the light”</u> is another metaphor for death in this poem.
“Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night” is a villanelle in which the poet addresses his father how he ought to die. Dylan Thomas advised his father about how he needs to defy death. The poet also gives an overview of the characterization of the people who defy death and had anger towards it. He uses metaphors and imagery to explain life and death.

Somebody cannot answer this unless they have seen the cartoon this question is asking about.
Answer:
The correct answer is oxymoron.
Explanation:
Oxymoron is a type of figurative language used when trying to illustrate a rhetoric point.
Here, it is obvious that Queen Elizabeth had a purpose for saying this quote.
What she <u><em>did not</em></u> do was compare two objects (simile or metaphor), give inanimate objects human qualities (personification), use words of noises (onomatopoeia), or use words that start with the same letters (alliteration.)
Therefore, t he correct answer is oxymoron.
Hope this helps! :D
