Every Day in the Year. 1902.November 17The Defence of LucknowBy Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1809–1892)The Siege of Lucknow was one of the most terrible incidents of the Indian Mutiny. It was prolonged for 87 days and was finally relieved by General Campbell on Nov.

III.Ay, but the foe sprung his mine many times, and it chanced on a daySoon as the blast of that underground thunderclap echoed away,Dark through the smoke and the sulphur like so many fiends in their hell—Cannon-shot, musket-shot, volley on volley, and yell upon yell—Fiercely on all the defences our myriad enemy fell.What have they done? Guard the Redan!Storm at the Water-gate! Storm at the Bailey-gate! Storm, and it ranSurging and swaying all round us, as ocean on every sidePlunges and heaves at a bank that is daily devoured by the tide—So many thousands that if they be bold enough, who shall escape?Kill or be killed, live or die, they shall know we are soldiers and men!Ready!

Take aim at their leaders—their masses are gapp’d with our grape—Backward they reel like the wave, like the wave flinging forward again,Flying and foiled at the last by the handful they could not subdue;And ever upon the topmost roof our banner of England blew. IV.Handful of men as we were, we were English in heart and in limb,Strong with the strength of the race to command, to obey, to endure,Each of us fought as if hope for the garrison hung but on him;Still—could we watch at all points? V.Then on another wild morning another wild earthquake out-toreClean from our lines of defence ten or twelve good paces or more.Riflemen, high on the roof, hidden there from the light of the sun—One has leapt up on the breach, crying out: ‘Follow me, follow me!’—Mark him—he falls!

Then another, and him too, and down goes he.Had they been bold enough then, who can tell but the traitors had won?Boardings and rafters and doors—an embrasure! Make way for the gun!Now double-charge it with grape! It is charged and we fire, and they run.Praise to our Indian brothers, and let the dark face have his due!Thanks to the kindly dark faces who fought with us, faithful and few,Fought with the bravest among us, and drove them, and smote them, and slew,That ever upon the topmost roof our banner in India blew. VI.Men will forget what we suffer and not what we do. VII.Hark cannonade, fusillade! Is it true what was told by the scout,Outram and Havelock breaking their way through the fell mutineers?Surely the pibroch of Europe is ringing again in our ears!All on a sudden the garrison utter a jubilant shout,Havelock’s glorious Highlanders answer with conquering cheers,Sick from the hospital echo them, women and children come out,Blessing the wholesome white faces of Havelock’s good fusileers,Kissing the war-hardened hand of the Highlander wet with their tears!Dance to the pibroch!—saved!—we are saved!—is it you?

Nintendo was apparently thinking about releasing a game controller for Smart phones, so attaching that to your phone could emulate a Wii U gamepad. Maybe have that controller come with a free digital copy of Nintendo land For Switch?

Is it you?Saved by the valour of Havelock, saved by the blessing of Heaven!‘Hold it for fifteen days!’ we have held it for eighty-seven!And ever aloft on the palace roof the old banner of England blew.
