ASSESMENT AND APPLICATION
“Invictus,” written in 1875 by William Ernest Henley, is arguably one of the iconic poems
ever written that offers a strong message about the meaning of self. A Latin word meaning
“unconquered,” its last two lines are notably utilized speeches of the historical figures, like
Nelson Mandela, Aung Suu Kyi, and Barak Obama, as well as the other literatures and
movies, such as Casablanca, Star Trek: Renegades, as the biopic Invictus.
Read the poem and answer the questions.
INVICTUS
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloddy, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet menace of the years
Finds and shall fine me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charges with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
