Jabberwocky
 ‘Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble
in the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves, And the
mome raths outgrabe.
 “Beware the Jabberwock, my son! The jaws that bite,
the claws that catch! Beware the Jubjub bird, and
shun The frumious Bandersnatch!”
 He took his vorpal sword in hand: Long time the
manxome foe he sought—So resteted he by the
Tumtum tree, And stood awhile in thought.
 And, as in uffish thought he stood, The Jabberwock,
with eyes of flame, Came whiffling through the
tulgery wood, And burbled as it came!
