Answer:
Q1. The poem 'Casabianca' was written by Mrs. Felicia Dorothea Hemans. It starts out with the
well known line, "the boy stood on the burning deck". The story relates to an extraordinary
incident of devotion and heroism witnessed during the Battle of the Nile.
It was on the evening of July 28 of 1798 that the English naval squadron under Lord Nelson
sailed in. They had caught the French fleet at anchor and unprepared. The French flagship
was the L'Orient and it soon found itself flanked by English ships attacking from both sides.
A fierce battle was soon raging and the flashes of 2000 guns lit up the ships in the gathering
darkness. L'Orient was caught by the English broadsides and was set ablaze.
It was then that the English sailors saw an amazing sight. There on that burning deck they
saw a boy standing alone. He was Cassabianca, the 12 year old son of one of the ship's
officers. There he stood, alone at his post. He was surrounded by flames and facing the
astonished English foe. Soon afterwards the fire reached the powder magazine deep down
in the hold. The boy perished when the whole ship erupted in a massive explosion.
The sound of L'Orient blowing up was heard at Rosetta 20 miles away. And the glow of the
fireball was seen in Alexandria. It was an enormous explosion of a magnitude rarely seen
back in those times. The English sailors stood in awe at what they had just witnessed. For
some twenty minutes the guns were silent. The English officers and men were absolutely
horrified at the carnage that had taken place. They sent a ship to rescue the survivors from
the water. About 70 French sailors were saved.
The account of that boy who stood on that burning deck was told and retold. Eventually it
passed on into legend. The story remains a classic example of devotion and faithful service.
And the poem continues to serve as a source of inspiration and wonder for many throughout
Christendom. That boy who stayed at his post on that burning deck has not been forgotten.
And the story of his heroic stand is remembered right up to the present day.
