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 wonder’d.
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.
—“The Charge of the Light Brigade,”
Alfred, Lord Tennyson
In which two ways does the fourth stanza’s long length add to the poem’s meaning?
It slows the poem down to show the thoughts of the poet and the soldiers.
It creates room to focus on the Russian Army.
It makes the battle the biggest focus of the poem.
It shows that all of the six hundred make it back alive.
It keeps the action going by not breaking the scene into parts.
