At that hour when all things have repose
James Joyce
1882 to 1941
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.

Awake to hear the sweet harps play
At that hour when all things have repose,
Soft sweet music in the air above
Of harps playing unto Love to unclose
Do you hear the night wind and the sighs
When all things repose, do you alone
Whose way in heaven is aglow
At that hour when soft lights come and go,
To Love before him on his way,
O lonely watcher of the skies,
Till night is overgone?
And the night wind answering in antiphon
And in the earth below.
Play on, invisible harps, unto Love,
The pale gates of sunrise?
