The statement “The refrains emphasize the importance of resisting death” describes the effect of the refrains in this excerpt

Option C

Explanation:

The line from poem “Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night" by Dylan Thomas. Here, the son delivers the four different categories of men to his father. And, states to father that, plead for some time to mark something in his life. So, mention in a clear way, be furious and act against his dying. Also, not let simply gentle to the good night.

A refrain is something which re-emphasizes the importance of something. Here in Ozymandias although history talks about him being a very mighty king who owned a massive kingdom, time is a very powerful factor. Time can reinforce the inevitability of death. Death was inevitable for Ozymandias too, regardless of him stay as a very powerful king.

read this passage from the crisis. what rationale is paine using for going to war with great britain? my own line of reasoning is to myself as straight and clear as a ray of light. not all the treasures of the world, so far as i believe, could have induced me to support an offensive war, for i think it murder; but if a thief breaks into my house, burns and destroys my property, and kills or threatens to kill me, or those that are in it, and to "bind me in all cases whatsoever" to his absolute will, am i to suffer it? what signifies it to me, whether he who does it is a king or a common man; my countryman or not my countryman; whether it be done by an individual villain, or an army of them? if we reason to the root of things we shall find no difference; neither can any just cause be assigned why we should punish in the one case and pardon in the other.

Time is not always change. time can also mean continuity, and it can mean keeping acknowledged truths in mind despite differences in circumstances.there is no better example of this in things fall apart than the retellings of the proverb about the bird named eneke, the language in both retellings is almost identical despite the length of time that has passed between their repetitions. in comparing the usages of the same proverb, achebe allows his readers to note the similarities and differences between the situations, and he them understand how this story can be applied to their own lives.
