Tennyson imagines that a lady of high birth in ancient times receives the dead body of her husband, killed in a battle.When they brought her husband-the slain warrior- home, the lady neither fainted nor cried out. All the servant girls who were watching her at this time said that she must either weep or she will die in sorrow. Her servant-women are afraid when they see that she does not move or shed tears, and try to make her weep by reminding her of her husband.

All the servant girls praised their dead master in a soft and a low voice and said that he is worthy of all their love. He is the best and the truest friend and noble and diplomatic even towards his sworn enemies. Yet she did not hear them speak and she herself did not speak nor moved. Then another servant girl moved quietly from her place where she was mourning and went quietly to the altar where the slain body of the warrior laid. She took off the cloth covering the face of the dead warrior for the lady to see but she did not break down into tears nor moved.

Finally, an old nurse of ninety years old came up with the most noble idea. She took the newly born child of the warrior and placed it on the lady's knees. Then suddenly like an out break of heavy rain, thunder and lightning of Summer, she broke down into solid tears and wept profusely. She looked at her child and vowed to continue living and watch her child grow. In the old nurse solution, Tennyson shows a good knowledge of the workings of the mother's heart.

Home They Brought Her Warrior Dead

Home they brought her warrior dead:

She nor swooned, nor uttered 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--

'Sweet my child, I live for thee.'

In his poem Home they brought her warrior dead Tennyson shows how the purpose of grief is to allow us to survive hurt (such as losing a loved one); and that we need to survive because our children are more important than we are.

Summary of the poem home they brought her warrior dead?

the poem is about suppressed grief. the body of a dead warrior is brought home to his wife and she has no reaction to this and is in too much of shock to show any emotion. the maidens conclude that if she does not cry, all the bottled up grief will kill her. the first try to make her weep by praising the warrior, calling him a true friend and i noble foe, but this doesn't change her state of shock then a maiden goes over to the dead body and removes the cloth that covers his face, hoping for grief to flow out of the wife, but it doesn't. finally a ninety year old nurse places their child upon her knee, and her tears roll down like a summer tempest (sudden and furiously) and she(warriors wife) says "sweet my child,i live for thee".
