Page 16 - So through the night rode Paul Revere ; And so through the night went his cry of alarm • To every Middlesex village and farm, — A cry of defiance and not of fear, A voice in the darkness, a knock at the door, And a word that shall echo for evermore!
Page 16 - The belfry-tower of the Old North Church, As it rose above the graves on the hill, Lonely and spectral and sombre and still.
