What did paul revere tell his friend to do if the british were going to attack by sea? a) hang two lanterns in the belfry arch. b) hang one lantern in the church tower. c) signal those in the north church tower. d) ride through the country to spread the word.

A) Hang two lanterns in the belfry arch.

Explanation:

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."

the words “strangest” and “unusual” suggest that the narrator is about to tell the story of an odd or puzzling group of people.

wordsworth tends to see nature as 'out there'; a presence which surrounds humans, and contributes to human life, but is different from humans. if you look at a typical wordsworth poem (there was a boy, ye knew him well ye rocks) - wordsworth talks about nature as something that needs to be learned about and understood, nature is different from us.  

if you look at a byron poem (the isles of greece is a good one) - byron looks at nature mainly for what it already means to man. wordsworth will look at a landscape and see the mountains, trees, valleys, and rivers as almost spiritual presences - wordsworth wants to get to know nature.  

byron will look at the same landscape and he will want to know who lives there, what are the villages? are there any farms or mines, is there some history?  

wordsworth looks at nature for what it is; byron is forever asking what it means.  

wordsworth thinks that humans are part of nature; byron thinks that nature is part of being human
