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.

From misty shores where ravens call, a legend's flame begins to sprawl
Her golden hair, a battle rage, her voice commands a turning page
Though victories stacked, a final stand, Suetonius' legion met her hand
The Iceni rise, a vengeful tide, for fallen kin, they'll take no side
With chariots thundering, warriors bold, they crushed the Ninth, a story told
Camulodunum fell in flame, Verulamium shared the same
They plundered wealth, they took her pride, her husband's death, she couldn't hide
Poison's kiss, or battle's strain, her spirit lives, though victory's wane
The Romans came with greed and might, but freedom burns a fierce, bright light
Her daughters raised their blades on high, Britannia's wrath will fill the sky!
Outnumbered, trapped, a desperate fight, Boudicca's dream took flight at night
A queen of fire, a warrior's heart, Boudicca stands, her anger's art
Londinium choked in smoke and ash, Boudicca's fury, a deadly crash!
Boudicca, Queen of Briton's lands, a warrior's legend, forever stands!
