The correct answer is "He makes Samson's story symbolic of the potential outcome for denying others their freedom". Henry Wadsworth Longfellow was an American poet and educator who wrote "Paul Revere's Ride", The Song of Hiawatha, and Evangeline among others. He was also the first American to translate Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy and was one of the five Fireside Poets from New England.
