And Mark Brainlist

"After Blenheim"

is an anti war poem which was written by an English Romantic poet laureate Robert

Southey in 1796. It conveys the message of futility of war. The battle is not

described directly. It is through the conversation

between an old farmer and his grandchildren that it becomes known that the

setting is a former battleground. Peterkin finds something 'large and round', so

his grandfather explains that it is a skull, and many of them could be found in

the earth nearby. He says that it is some poor fellow's skull who fell in the

great victory.
