I Find No Peace
Sir Thomas Wyatt

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.

I fly above the wind, yet can I not arise;
Likewise displeaseth me both life and death,
I find no peace, and all my war is done.
I love another, and thus I hate myself.
Nor letteth me live nor die at my device,
And nought I have, and all the world I season.
Without eyen I see, and without tongue I plain.
And holdeth me not—yet can I scape no wise—
And yet of death it giveth me occasion.
I feed me in sorrow and laugh in all my pain;
That loseth nor locketh holdeth me in prison
And my delight is causer of this strife.
I fear and hope. I burn and freeze like ice.
I desire to perish, and yet I ask health.
