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.
