Omnia - 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!
Beare the Jubjub bid and shun
The frumious Bandersnach!”
He took his Vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the mancome foe he sought
So resterd he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought And as in uffish thought he stood
The Jabberwork, with eyes of flame
Came whiffling trough the tulgey wood
And burbled as it came
One two! One two! and trough and trough
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead and with it’s head
He went galumphing back
“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock
Come to my arms my beamish boy
A 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
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!
Beare the Jubjub bid and shun
The frumious Bandersnach!”
He took his Vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the mancome foe he sought
So resterd he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought And as in uffish thought he stood
The Jabberwork, with eyes of flame
Came whiffling trough the tulgey wood
And burbled as it came
One two! One two! and trough and trough
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead and with it’s head
He went galumphing back
“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock
Come to my arms my beamish boy
A 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
