"Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night" by Dylan Thomas

Write a Q26 and Q27 response to "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night" by Dylan Thomas and "Because I Could Not Stop for Death" by Emily Dickinson.

Directions for Q26 and Q27 are here.  Please note that I made a mistake on some of your sheets.  The controlling idea is "death."

If you were absent on Monday, you have not received the second poem.  You will not be allowed to make up that worksheet unless you have a note.  If you were absent you should look the poem up online and use it to respond to the prompts.
