Read the excerpt from "Do not go gentle into that good night."


Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

How does the event described in this passage move
the plot forward?
The first time I visited Meg's house, she took me upstairs
to her room, and I wound up trying on her clothes. We
were pretty much the same size, since Meg was shorter
and thinner than average. Maybe that's how we became
friends in the first place. Wearing Mog's jeans and T-
shirt, I looked at myself in the mirror. I could almost pass
for American - from the back, anyway. At least the kids
in school wouldn't stop and stare at me in the hallways,
which was what they did when they saw me in my white
blouse and navy blue skirt that went a couple of inches
below the knees.

It is as though the population of these cities had been brought down to the river-side, year after year, there to be taught patience; and as though, in this Bridge, after these many years, patience had had her perfect work.
