Listen, my [noun-plural], and you shall hear
Of the midnight [verb] of [first name] Revere,
On the [number]th of April in Seventy-five;
Hardly a [animal] is now alive
who remembers that [adjective] [unit of time] and year.

He said to his [noun], "If the [Nationality] march
By land or [noun] from the town tonight,
[verb] a [noun] aloft in the [room]
Of the Old North [building] as a signal light,-
[number], if by land and, [number], if by sea;
And I on the opposite [noun] will be,
Ready to [verb] and [verb] the alarm
Through every Middlesex [noun] and farm,
For the country [noun] to be [direction] and to arm.

Then he said, "Good Night!" and with [adjective] oar
Silently [verb-past tense] to the [city's name] shore
Just as the [Noun] [verb] over the bay,
Where [verb]ing wide at her moorings lay
The [name], [Nationality] man-of-war;
A [adjective] [type of transportation], with each [noun] and spar
Across the [Noun] like a prison bar,
And a [adjective] [color] hulk, that was magnified
By its own reflection in the tide.
