Unto my books so good to turn
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.

It half endears the abstinence,
Enamour in prospective,
And it is bells within.
As flavors cheer retarded guests
It may be wilderness without,
Their countenances bland
I thank these kinsmen of the shelf;
So spices stimulate the time
Far ends of tired days;
And pain is missed in praise.
Far feet of failing men,
And satisfy, obtained.
With banquetings to be,
Till my small library.
Unto my books so good to turn
But holiday excludes the night,
