excerpt from "paul revere's ride"
by henry wadsworth longfellow

paul revere was an express rider who, on april 18, 1775, was charged with delivering a message and alerting communities about the approaching british troops.

beneath, in the churchyard, lay the dead,
in their night encampment on the hill,
wrapped in silence so deep and still
that he could hear, like a sentinel's tread,
the watchful night-wind, as it went
creeping along from tent to tent,
and seeming to whisper, "all is well! "
a moment only he feels the spell
of the place and the hour, and the secret dread
of the lonely belfry and the dead;
for suddenly all his thoughts are bent
on a shadowy something far away,
where the river widens to meet the
a line of black that bends and floats
on the rising tide like a bridge of boats.

Read the following passage: he roamed from chamber to chamber with hurried, unequal, and objectless step. the pallor of his countenance had assumed, if possible, a more ghastly hue— but the luminousness of his eye had utterly gone out. the once occasional huskiness of his tone was heard no more; and a tremulous quaver, as if of extreme terror, habitually characterized his utterance. there were times, indeed, when i thought his unceasingly agitated mind was laboring with some oppressive secret, to divulge which he struggled for the necessary courage. which of the above ideas might be considered foreshadowing? he is wandering all over the chamber his skin tone is really pale his voice is quivering the narrator thinks he is laboring with an oppressive secret
