The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Written April 19, 1860; first published in 1863 as part of "Tales of a Wayside Inn" Listen my children and you shall hear Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere, On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-five; Hardly a man is now alive Who remembers that famous day and year. He said to his friend, "If the British march By land or sea from the town to-night, Hang a lantern aloft in the belfry arch Of the North Church tower as a signal light, One if by land, and two if by sea; And I on the opposite shore will be, Ready to ride and spread the alarm Through every Middlesex village and farm, For the country folk to be up and to arm." Then he said "Good-night!" and with muffled oar Silently rowed to the Charlestown shore, Just as the moon rose over the bay, Where swinging wide at her moorings lay The Somerset, British man-of-war; A phantom ship, with each mast and spar Across the moon like a prison bar, And a huge black hulk, that was magnified By its own reflection in the tide.

Billy Collins , U.S. Poet Laureate "You will be hanging on every word..." CDBaby.com "Layne Longfellow not just revives Longfellow, but gives the poetry the personal and human context for which it is meant. I especially like his version of "The Children's Hour," which dispenses with the syrupy sentimentalism readers have associated with it and restores the poem's original power." Christoph Irmscher, author, Longfellow Redux The Poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is one of the best loved American poets the world over. Many of his phrasings remain in the memory and accompany us through life. Although he was a serious and internationally respected scholar, Longfellow was blessed with the gift of easy rhyme. He wrote poetry as a bird sings, with natural grace and melody. Once read or heard, his rhyme and meter cling to the mind.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882) American Poet Fame comes only when deserved, and then is as inevitable as destiny, for it is destiny. Age is opportunity no less Than youth itself, though in another dress, And as the evening twilight fades away The sky is filled with stars, invisible by day. For after all, the best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain. Give what you have. To someone it may be better than you dare to think. I shot an arrow in the air, It fell to earth, I knew not where. If we could read the secret history of our enemies, we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm any hostility. In this world a man must be either anvil or hammer.

Born in Portland, Maine (then in Massachusetts), Longfellow was educated at Bowdoin College. After graduating in 1825 he traveled in Europe in preparation for a teaching career. He taught modern languages at Bowdoin from 1829 to 1835. In late 1835, during a second trip to Europe, Longfellow's wife, Mary Storer Potter, died in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Longfellow returned to the United States in 1836 and began teaching at Harvard University. In 1843 he remarried, to Fanny Appleton. After retiring from Harvard in 1854, Longfellow devoted himself exclusively to writing. He was devastated when in 1861 his second wife was burned to death in a household accident. He commemorated her shortly before his own death with the sonnet “The Cross of Snow” (1879). In 1884 a bust of Longfellow was placed in the Poets' Corner of

Fellow ship > The Story Behind "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day" Web WStS The Story Behind "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day" by Tom Stewart December 20, 2001 One of America's best known poets, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow , contributed to the wealth of carols sung each Christmas season, when he composed the words to "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day" on December 25th 1864. "Glory to God in the Highest, and on Earth peace, good will toward men" (Luke 2:14) . The carol was originally a poem, "Christmas Bells," containing seven stanzas. Two stanzas were omitted, which contained references to the American Civil War, thus giving us the carol in its present form. The poem gave birth to the carol, "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day," and the remaining five stanzas were slightly rearranged in 1872 by John Baptiste Calkin , who also gave us the memorable tune. When Longfellow penned the words to his poem, America was still months away from Lee's surrender to Grant at Appomattox Court House on April 9th 1865; and, his poem reflected the prior years of the war's despair, while ending with a confident hope of triumphant peace.

In America as in Europe, fresh new vision electrified artistic and intellectual circles. Yet there was an important difference: Romanticism in America coincided with the period of national expansion and the discovery of a distinctive American voice. The solidification of a national identity and the surging idealism and passion of Romanticism nurtured the masterpieces of "the American Renaissance."
