Casabianca (poem)
"Casabianca" is a poem by the English poet Felicia Dorothea Hemans, first published in '' The Monthly Magazine'', Vol 2, August 1826. The poem starts: ::The boy stood on the burning deck ::Whence all but he had fled; ::The flame that lit the battle's wreck ::Shone round him o'er the dead. It is written in ballad meter, rhyming ''abab''. It is about the true story of a boy who was obedient enough to wait for his father's orders, not knowing that his father is no longer alive. It is perhaps not widely realised that the boy in the poem is French and not English; his nationality is not mentioned. History The poem commemorates an actual incident that occurred in 1798 during the Battle of the Nile between British and French fleets on 1 August aboard the French flagship ''L'Orient''. Giocante, the young son (his age is variously given as ten, twelve and thirteen) of the ship's commander Luc-Julien-Joseph Casabianca remained at his post and perished when at 22:00 the fire reached t ...
