The poet brings forth the horrors of the Industrial Revolution and the cruelties of child labour through this poem. We see how the children have almost become corpses- with red eyes and exhausted bodies that cannot work anymore. The poem is a critique of child labour and shows us how it takes away children’s dreams and childhood.
