Answer 1

Answer:

After Blenheim is an extra-ordinary poem penned down by Robert Southey. This poem highlights the destruction of war and how it affects a common man's life.

Explanation:

Kaspar is one fo the main characters of this poem. He plays the role of a farmer. The poet elaborates on one of the biggest battles of the 18th century.

The poet thinks that wars are unnecessary and hundred of lives are laid after a certain cause when problems can be solved peacefully between two opposing parties.

After the war in Blenheim, there were dead bodies of young, old, and ever newborns everywhere.

The poet also describes how common man is ignorant towards all these losses. He cares for victory and will praise the victors forgetting all the sacrifices made.
