Lines eleven and fourteen give gruesome pictures of the aftermaths of war‚ “trampling the terrible corpses – blind with blood‚” and “his face is trodden deeper into the mud.” This is done because the poet wants the reader to have a clear mental image of how grisly war is‚ and also remember what it results in. Using blood and corpses to paint images had a strong effect on stressing the brutality of war. Glory of Women conveys its message very well because of the ways
