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.

Spend my whole day in the quest,—who cares?
Yet the day wears,
Range the wide house from the wing to the centre.
Left in the curtain, the couch's perfume!
Heart, fear nothing, for, heart, thou shalt find her—
I try the fresh fortune—
Such closets to search, such alcoves to importune!
And door succeeds door;
But 'tis twilight, you see,—with such suites to explore,
Still the same chance! she goes out as I enter.
I hunt the house through
Room after room,
Yon looking-glass gleamed at the wave of her feather.
Next time, herself!—not the trouble behind her
We inhabit together.
As she brushed it, the cornice-wreath blossomed anew:
