There's a certain Slant of light
Emily Dickinson
1830 to 1886
Track 1
Reconstruct the poem by dragging each line into its correct position. Your goal is to reassemble the original poem as accurately as possible. As you move the lines, you'll see whether your arrangement is correct, helping you explore the poem's flow and meaning. You can also print out the jumbled poem to cut up and reassemble in the classroom. Either way, take your time, enjoy the process, and discover how the poet's words come together to create something truly beautiful.

On the look of Death –
That oppresses, like the Heft
An imperial affliction
We can find no scar,
Where the Meanings, are –
Winter Afternoons –
Of Cathedral Tunes –
Tis the seal Despair –
When it goes, 'tis like the Distance
There's a certain Slant of light,
None may teach it – Any –
But internal difference –
Sent us of the Air –
Shadows – hold their breath –
When it comes, the Landscape listens –
Heavenly Hurt, it gives us –
