Reseña del libro "Evangeline: A Tale of Acadie (With Introduction, Notes and a Plan of Study) (en Inglés)"
Evangeline by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Evangeline, A Tale of Acadie is an epic poem by the American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, written in English and published in 1847.

A line must begin with an accented syllable, the last accent but one be followed by two unaccented syllables, and the last by one.
