The Phantom
Thomas Hardy

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.

Foremost in my vision
Ah; 'tis but her phantom
And the taper nigh,
Never once do I, Dear,
Beckoned, "Here am I!"
Shape so sweet and shy, Dear,
Who can say thee nay ?
Moving at the pane;
She abides with me.
Everywhere goes she;
Shining from within there
Borne within my brain! —
Change dissolves the landscapes,
Wish thy ghost away.
That was once her casement,
Now, as then, I see her
