Answer: Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin. (Gypsies)

Step-by-step explanation:

Gypsy camp slow and noisy

moving around Bessarabia.

They are by the river, near the old road

poor queens crucified.

This is part of Pushkin's poem "Gypsies." It represents one of the most representative pieces of Romantic literature. Romanticism also tempts the idea of freedom. Pushkin wrote the work in exile, so it is not surprising that the part mentioned above of the poem is imbued with the desire for freedom.
