Read the following poem carefully:
Home they brought her warrior dead
She nor swooned, nor uttered a cry;
All her maidens, watching, said,
‘She must weep or she will die’.
Then they praised him, soft and low.
Called him worthy to be loved,
Truest friend and noblest foe;
Yet she neither spoke nor moved.
Stole a maiden from her place,
Lightly to the warrior stepped,
Took the face-cloth from the face;
Yet she neither moved nor wept.
Rose a nurse of ninety years,
Set his child upon her knee-
Like summer tempest came her tears
_____Alfred Lord Tennyson.
