Explanation: This excerpt from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's "Paul Revere's Ride" introduces the character of Paul Revere and, most importantly, the mission he carried out.
In this passage, the author explains in the form of a poem, the actions that were taken by Paul Revere. It explains how Revere indicated his friends to hang lanterns in the North Church tower if the British started marching towards their territory. Then, if Revere saw the signal, he would ride to spread the alarm through Middlesex so that the villagers would be ready to defend themselves.

Answer:
Beth has always been the type of girl that was "you only live once", "I can do whatever I want with my life" girl and she was having a very good time as a result of her perception of life.
She lost her virginity at age fourteen to the captain of the football team, had her first abortion at age sixteen, started doing drugs six months later, and seemed to do whatever she wanted. She was on the fast lane and the sky was literally her limit.
Before long, she got hooked to meth and dropped out of school and started rolling around with dregs of society- small-time thieves, other juvenile delinquents, and other junkies.
When Beth was twenty, she had done six abortions and was now only a ghost of herself as she aged at least fifteen years. She had been in and out of drug rehab many times with little progress.
Last thing that was heard of her was that she joined a robbery gang, got caught, and is serving twenty years in a federal penitentiary.
This shows that whatever you sow, that you shall reap.
