    One of the most popular American poems, "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe, was published on January 29, 1845. "Once upon a midnight dreary," the poem begins. That poem brought fame to its author, but it did not bring riches. Did you know that Poe was paid just $15 for his masterpiece? Each year in Baltimore, Maryland, a mysterious visitor leaves roses at Poe's grave on the eve of his birthday.

    Explanation:

    There are punctuation mistakes, such as omitted quotation marks in ''The raven", and "Once upon a midnight dreary". There is also a missing coma at the end of the appositive in the first sentence. Instead of an exclamation mark at the end of the fourth sentence, a question mark should be put, as the sentence is interrogative. The correct genitive form of Poe is Poe's. Spelling errors include the following: the correct past tense form of the verb 'to bring' is brought; past participle of 'to pay' is paid; verb 'to know' is not correctly spelled; there is no need for an apostrophe in 'its author', because its is a pronoun, and not a past simple form of the verb to be. There is also no need to capitalize the word 'birthday'.
