Mosese Light Brigade

The Charge Of The Light Brigade  

Alfred Lord Tennyson

LI: to understand the story behind this narrative poem

Half a league, half a league,

     Half a league onward,

All in the valley of Death

     Rode the six hundred.

'Forward, the Light Brigade!

Charge for the guns!' he said:

Into the valley of Death

     Rode the six hundred.

'Forward, the Light Brigade!'

Was there a man dismay'd ?

Not tho' the soldier knew

     Some one had blunder'd:

There's not to make reply,

There's not to reason why,

Theirs but to do and die:

Into the valley of Death

     Rode the six hundred.

Cannon to right of them,

Cannon to left of them,

Cannon in front of them

     Volleyed and thundered;

Stormed at with shot and shell,

Boldly they rode and well,

Into the jaws of Death,

Into the mouth of Hell

     Rode the six hundred.

Flash'd all their sabres bare,

Flash'd as they turn'd in air

Sabring the gunners there,

Charging an army, while

     All the world wondered:

Plunged in the battery-smoke

Right thro' the line they broke;

Cossack and Russian

Reel'd from the sabre-stroke

     Shatter'd and sunder'd.

Then they rode back, but not

     Not the six hundred.

Cannon to right of them,

Cannon to left of them,

Cannon behind them

     Volleyed and thundered;

Stormed at with shot and shell,

While horse and hero fell,

They that had fought so well

Came thro' the jaws of Death,

Back from the mouth of Hell,

All that was left of them,

     Left of six hundred.

When can their glory fade ?

O the wild charge they made!

     All the world wondered.

Honour the charge they made!

Honour the Light Brigade,

     Noble six hundred!

At the Battle of Balaclava in 1854 during the Crimean War, the ‘Light Brigade’, (a group of British soldiers), charged down a narrow valley to fight the Russian soldiers who had captured British guns. The Russians were at the end of the valley as well as on each side of it. The attack was not a wise choice and happened because of a misunderstanding of an order sent by the commander-in-chief. After following orders less than a third of these men survived.

Answer these questions in full sentences:

1. “If you were in the military and you were given an order, would you obey it – even if it meant putting your life on the line?  Why or why not?”No incase that they might say to do something bad and silly.
2. What is a brigade?

3. “Theirs not to make reply/Theirs not to reason why/Theirs but to do and die” - What did this mean for the soldiers?

4. What makes this a narrative poem?
