In Time of 'The Breaking of Nations'
Thomas Hardy
1840 to 1928
Track 1
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.

Though Dynasties pass.
From the heaps of couch grass:
Only thin smoke without flame
Only a man harrowing clods
Yet this will go onward the same
War's annals will fade into night
Come whispering by;
Half asleep as they stalk.
In a slow silent walk,
Ere their story die.
Yonder a maid and her wight
With an old horse that stumbles and nods
