This essay discusses that the closing stages of these literary articles reveal that both of Yeats and Moss agree to die but neither of them is willing to come back to life because the treatment in earth is the same. Yeats says in the last stanza, “of what is past, or passing or to come”. The narrator argues that even though he is dying he has made a history and he has left a legacy that forever he shall be remembered hence his last words in the poem as already indicated above. This is a similar prosthesis that engulfs Moss who is ready to die but he knows he has left a legacy to his disturbed family. Despite having such money, he does not wish to come back to life due to the suffering and pursuit he faces in his life.

This paper has analyzed all rhetorical reflections in the poem and the novel and has compared their similarities and meanings. Both artistic works indicate that the human life, as well as many other organisms, undergoes a cycle of birth, life, and eventual death. The authors have also been keen to illustrate that old organism mostly lose their status in the ecological niches are mostly neglected and left to die. Both authors have also been keen to illustrate that choices have consequences in life and whatever the choice it will have a positive or a negative influence in life. The authors have also concluded their works by expressing that history is important and it forms the basis of our culture. In conclusion, the novel no country for old men by McCarthy was ideally inspired by sailing to Byzantium by Yeats.
