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.

Disdain, that Torrent will devour
Give me more Love, or more Disdain.
Either extreme, of Love, or Hate,
Bring equall ease unto my paine;
Like Danae in that golden showre
The Torrid, or the Frozen zone
Of Heaven, that’s but from Hell releast:

The Temperate affords me none:
Is sweeter than a calme estate.
Give me more Love, or more Disdain;
Give me a storme; if it be Love,
