Hey dear...

Here is your summary of poem

The eve of waterloo

The Eve of Waterloo’ relates the events that took place a night before the Battle of Quatre Bras fought near Brussels, capital of Belgium on June 16, 1815. This battle was a precursor to the Battle of Waterloo fought two days later.

Three nights before the Battle of Waterloo, the Duchess of Richmond Lady Charlotte organised a ball and invited many officers of the English and Prussian armies. Among the invited was the Duke of Wellington Arthur Wellesley, the commander-in-chief of the English army. It was during this ball that he received a word from a messenger that Napoleon-led French army was advancing towards the city for a surprise attack. Unwilling to create any panic, the Duke managed to get the officers to their regiments without much noise and left for the field himself.

The English and the Prussian emerged victors of the war. The war marked the end of the all-conquering career of Napoleon and his subsequent capture and exile to St. Helena.
