A Dream
Edgar Allan Poe
1809 to 1849
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.

Hath left me broken-hearted.
Turned back upon the past?
Hath cheered me as a lovely beam,
What could there be more purely bright
A lonely spirit guiding.
While all the world were chiding,
I have dreamed of joy departed—
In Truth's day star?
That holy dream—that holy dream,
But a waking dream of life and light
To him whose eyes are cast
So trembled from afar—
Ah! what is not a dream by day
On things around him with a ray
What though that light, thro' storm and night,
In visions of the dark night
