'Twas brillig and the slithy toves. Did gyre and gimble in the wabe.. All mimsey were the borogroves. And the mome raths outgrabe.. "Beware the Jabberwock my son!. The jaws that bite the claws that snatch!. Beware the Jubjub bird and shun. The frumious Bandersnatch!". He took his vorpal sword in hand:. Long time the manxome foe he sought â€”. He rested 'neath the Tumtum tree. And stood awhile in thought.. And while in uffish thought he stood. The Jabberwock with eyes aflame. Came whiffling through the tulgey wood. And burbled as it came!. One two! One two! And through and through. The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!. He left it dead and with its head. He went galumphing back.. "And hast thou slain the Jabberwock ?. Come to my arms my beamish boy!. O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!". He chortled in his joy.. 'Twas brillig and the slithy toves. Did gyre and gimble in the wabe.. All mimsey were the borogroves.
