Read the last stanza from "The Charge of the Light Brigade." When can their glory fade? O the wild charge they made! All the world wonder’d. Honor the charge they made! Honor the Light Brigade, Noble six hundred! In what way does the last stanza’s short length contribute to the poem’s meaning? It reflects on the fierce battle scene described in earlier stanzas. It describes the practice of war as destructive and unjust. It provides a simple and to-the-point tribute to the soldiers. It shows that people wondered about the outcome of the battle.
