To a Butterfly
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.

Hath found you out among the trees,
I know not if you sleep, or feed.
Stop here whenever you are weary,
Sit near us on the bough!
And calls you forth again!

My trees they are, my Sister's flowers;
Self-pois'd upon that yellow flower;
Sweet childish days, that were as long
How motionless! not frozen seas
We'll talk of sunshine and of song;
And rest as in a sanctuary!
This plot of Orchard-ground is ours;
And, little Butterfly! indeed
I've watch'd you now a full half hour,
And summer days, when we were young,
Come often to us, fear no wrong;
What joy awaits you, when the breeze
