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. Meanwhile, his friend, through alley and street, Wanders and watches with eager ears, Till in the silence around him he hears The muster of men at the barrack door

Biography of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Probably one of the best loved American poets the world over is Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Many of his lines are as familiar to us as rhymes from Mother Goose or the words of nursery songs learned in early childhood. Like these rhymes and melodies, they remain in the memory and accompany us through life. There are two reasons for the popularity and significance of Longfellow's poetry. First, he had the gift of easy rhyme. He wrote poetry as a bird sings, with natural grace and melody. Read or heard once or twice, his rhyme and meters cling to the mind long after the sense may be forgotten. Second, Longfellow wrote on obvious themes which appeal to all kinds of people. His poems are easily understood; they sing their way into the consciousness of those who read them. Above all, there is a joyousness in them, a spirit of optimism and faith in the goodness of life which evokes immediate response in the emotions of his readers. Americans owe a great debt to Longfellow because he was among the first of American writers to use native themes. He wrote about the American scene andlandscape, the American Indian

The Romantic Period, 1820-1860: Essayists and Poets: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882)
Index The most important Boston Brahmin poets were Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Oliver Wendell Holmes , and James Russell Lowell. Longfellow, professor of modern languages at Harvard, was the best-known American poet of his day. He was responsible for the misty, ahistorical, legendary sense of the past that merged American and European traditions. He wrote three long narrative poems popularizing native legends in European meters "Evangeline" (1847), "The Song of Hiawatha" (1855), and "The Courtship of Miles Standish" (1858). Longfellow also wrote textbooks on modern languages and a travel book entitled Outre-Mer , retelling foreign legends and patterned after Washington Irving's Sketch Book . Although conventionality, sentimentality, and facile handling mar the long poems, haunting short lyrics like "The Jewish Cemetery at Newport" (1854), "My Lost Youth" (1855), and "The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls" (1880) continue to give pleasure.

Longfellow presided over Harvard's modern-language program for 18 years and then left teaching in 1854. Some of Longfellow's sonnets and other lyrics are still among the finest in American poetry, and Hiawatha, “The Wreck of the Hesperus,” Evangeline, and “Paul Revere's Ride” have become inseparable parts of the American heritage.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow was the most popular and influential American poet of the 19th century and had the widest range and greatest technical skill of all the poets of "the flowering of New England." He influenced the poetic taste of generations of readers throughout the English-speaking world. Combining gentility with the common touch, he was equally successful in lyric and narrative poetry and during his later years became a master of the sonnet. Ballads like The Wreck of the Hesperus and Paul Revere's Ride were familiar to every schoolchild, and Evangeline (1847) became the first enduringly successful long poem written in the United States. His exploration of Indian lore in The Song of Hiawatha (1855) showed his skill in the use of American subject matter, and as a pioneer in the teaching of modern languages, he helped introduce Americans to the literature of Europe.
Longfellow was educated at Bowdoin College, from which he graduated in 1825. He then pursued further studies in Europe and in 1829 became a professor at Bowdoin. From 1835 to 1854 he was Smith Professor of Modern Languages at Harvard. He was twice married, first to Mary Storer Potter in 1831 (she died in 1835) and then, in 1843, to Fanny Appleton, who became the mother of his six children; their extremely happy married life ended tragically in 1861 when she was burned to death. He commemorated her shortly before his own death with the sonnet

In 1826 he went to Europe to master the necessary languages, and in 1829 he returned and assumed the professorship and the librarianship of the College. In 1835, Longfellow became Harvard's Professor of French and Spanish. Although he had been publishing steadily throughout his teaching career, he resigned from Harvard in 1854 to concentrate on his writing.

George Peter Alexander Healy Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882), author of such poems as Evangeline , is too well known to need any introduction here. His son, Ernest Wadsworth Longfellow (1845-1921), a painter of somewhat inconsistent achievement but enjoying a considerable reputation in his day, bequeathed $200,000 toward the acquisitions budget of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
Longfellow and his brother and biographer, the Rev. Samuel Longfellow (1819-1892), were grandsons maternally of Peleg Wadsworth (1748-1829), a graduate of Harvard in the class of 1769, who afterwards worked as a surveyor, served as a brigadier-general in the Revolutionary War, and served from 1793 to 1807 as a congressman for Portland, Maine. More distantly through the Howlands, the poet was a sixth cousin of another eminent American literary figure of the period, Ralph Waldo Emerson

Boston Houghton Mifflin, 1901) Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth. Me.,18071882. The most widely read of American poets. He was born
http://etext.lib.virginia.edu/eaf/authors/adams/hwlAd.html
From Oscar Fay Adams, A Dictionary of American Authors , 4th edition (Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1901): Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth. Me., The most widely read of American poets. He was born in Portland, Maine, and graduated at Bowdoin College in 1825 in the class with Nathaniel Hawthorne. After three years of study in Europe he was professor of modern languages at Bowdoin College, 1829-35, and filled the same position at Harvard University, 1835-1854, his home being at Cambridge from 1835. The range of his thought is not wide, and his genius was rather adaptive than creative, but his poetry appeals to a larger number of readers of verse than, perhaps, any other poet of his time. Its finished execution is especially noteworthy in most of his later work, his sonnets, for example being nearly flawess specimens of their kind. See Lives by S.
