Ariel's Song
William Shakespeare
1564 to 1616
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.

Cry, Cock-a-diddle-dow.
But doth suffer a sea-change
Full fathom five thy father lies;
Hark, hark!
Ding-dong.
Come unto these yellow sands,
Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell:
Bow-wow.
The wild waves whist,
Bow-wow.
Hark! now I hear them - Ding-dong, bell.
And, sweet sprites, the burthen bear.
Of his bones are coral made;
Hark, hark! I hear
The strain of strutting chanticleer
Nothing of him that doth fade,
Those are pearls that were his eyes:
Into something rich and strange.
Foot it featly here and there;
The watch-dogs bark.
Curtsied when you have, and kiss'd
And then take hands:
