Calm is all nature
William Wordsworth
1770 to 1850
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.

Dark is the ground; a slumber seems to steal
Now, in this blank of things, a harmony
Those busy cares that would allay my pain:
The Kine are couch'd upon the dewy grass;
Calm is all nature as a resting wheel.
Is up, and cropping yet his later meal:
That grief for which the senses still supply
The Horse alone, seen dimly as I pass,
Oh! leave me to myself; nor let me feel
The officious touch that makes me droop again.
Home-felt, and home-created seems to heal
Is hush'd, am I at rest. My Friends, restrain
O'er vale, and mountain, and the starless sky.
Fresh food; for only then, when memory
