Answers
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
'Paul Revere’s Ride' is a poem written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. The poem is about the famous ride by Paul Revere on April 18, 1775.
The poem is written to inspire his readers rather than detailing out the historical event. Longfellow, through this poem, wants to convey to his readers that they should look at Paul Revere as a symbol of a national hero.
Therefore, the speaker's point of view in the poem is that he believed that Paul Revere was an inspiration who united the nation in the fight against the British. Thus option D is correct.
