Jabberwocky

JabberwockyQuod hoc nomen varias formas Latinas habet, titulum Anglicum hic conservavimus. est poema nugax a Ludovico Carroll insertum in librum suum fabulosum, quo de Aliciae per speculum transitu (1871) narravit. Quod poema primo aspectu nugas agere videtur, quippe cum in dictionum ex binis verbis in unum confusis factarum consecutione consistat. Exempli gratia dictio slithy in versu primo commixta est ex verbis quae sunt lithe ('gracilis') et slimy ('lubricus').

Jabberwocky cum Latine tum in alias quoque linguas conversum est. Nomina Latina, ordinata secundum primam litteram nominis cuiusque interpretis, haec sunt: 
 Gabrobocchia, et Taetraferocias Caruthers 
 Gaberbocchus Hodgson
 Iabervogas, Strugnell
 Iabrochius, Vansittart
 Iubavocus, Watson

Etiam versionem Graecam (Ἰάμβροξ) his subiecimus. 

 Poema 
'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 rested 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 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 mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
