Ode 1.11 (Latin)
Quintus Horatius Flaccus
65 BCE to 8 BCE
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.

spem longam reseces. Dum loquimur, fugerit invida
seu pluris hiemes seu tribuit Iuppiter ultimam,
quae nunc oppositis debilitat pumicibus mare
Tyrrhenum. Sapias, vina liques et spatio brevi
temptaris numeros. ut melius, quidquid erit, pati!
finem di dederint, Leuconoë, nec Babylonios
aetas: carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero.
Tu ne quaesieris, scire nefas, quem mihi, quem tibi
