Love's Unity
Alfred Austin
1835 to 1913
Track 1
Reconstruct the poem by dragging each line into its correct position. You can also use the up (↑) and down (↓) arrows to move a line one place at a time, or the top (⇑) and bottom (⇓) arrows to move a line directly to the top or bottom. 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.

And still beginning, never most nor least,
See, what is day but night bedewed with rest?
Wanes in the west that flameth in the east,
And 'tis love's difference, not love's decay,
I only know I love thee every way,
So rounds my love, returning where begun,
But fixedly various, all love's parts in one.
And what the night except the tired-out day?
His fervour nowise altered nor decreased?
Plumed for love's flight, or folded in love's nest.
If now I dawn, now fade, upon thy breast.
In rapture or repose? how shall I say?
How can I tell thee when I love thee best?
Self-torturing sweet! Is't not the self-same sun
