1700 To 1799

I am the University of Yale 
Opens its door. 
   I am the beginning of the 
 Revolutionary War. 

   I am one of the 13 
Colonies. 
   I am the Sons of Liberty 
Ideologies. 

   I am the Pilgrams at Plymouth 
Rock. 
   I am the Boston Tea Party thrown 
Off the dock. 

   I am the day the Navy was 
Created. 
   I am Paul Revere the midnight 
Ride awaited. 

   I am Ben Franklin and 
Nathan Hale. 
   I am the Declaration of 
Independence in detail. 

   I am the Bill of Rights and 
Betsy Ross. 
   I am George Washington he 
Is the boss. 

   I am the making of the U.S. 
Marines. 
   I am a patriot breaking away 
From the Queen. 

   I am the Bunker Hill 
Battle. 
   I am Benedict Arnold and  
His psychobabble. 

   I am Samuel Adams and 
Thomas Payne. 
   I am the Boston massacre 
Independence gained. 

   I am the colonial era and 
The Sugar Act. 
   I am the Pilgrams and natives 
Made a pact.
