In Isaac Rosenberg’s poem "Louse Hunting‚" a motley collection of World War I soldiers rise from their beds one night to wage battle-against the insects that dwell on their persons and in their uniforms. After months of serving on the front lines‚ living and fighting in the squalor of the trenches‚ these men have become infested with lice.

In his poem “To a Louse”‚ Burns reveals the extent of damage that vanity inflicts socially and personally on women (Burns 1).
