One, two! And through and through <br />The vorpal blade went <a href="/words/snicker-snack">snicker-snack</a>! <br />He left it dead, and with its head <br />He went <a href="/words/galumphing">galumphing</a> back. <br /> <br />'And <a href="/words/hast">hast</a> <a href="/words/thou">thou</a> <a href="/words/slain">slain</a> the Jabberwock? <br />Come to my arms, my <a href="/words/beamish">beamish</a> boy! <br />O <a href="/words/frabjous">frabjous</a> day! <a href="/words/Callooh">Callooh</a>! <a href="/words/Callay">Callay</a>!' <br />He <a href="/words/chortled">chortled</a> in his joy. <br /> <br />'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves <br />Did gyre and gimble in the wabe: <br />All mimsy were the borogoves, <br />And the mome raths outgrabe. <br />--Lewis Carroll http://www.wordnik.com http://www.wordnik.com/words/borogoves Fri, 28 Sep 2007 12:45:13 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/borogoves http://www.wordnik.com/words/brillig Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:49 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/brillig http://www.wordnik.com/words/slithy Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:44 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/slithy http://www.wordnik.com/words/toves Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:43 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/toves http://www.wordnik.com/words/gyre Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:41 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/gyre http://www.wordnik.com/words/gimble Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:39 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/gimble http://www.wordnik.com/words/wabe Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:37 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/wabe http://www.wordnik.com/words/mimsy Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:34 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/mimsy http://www.wordnik.com/words/mome Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:28 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/mome http://www.wordnik.com/words/raths Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:26 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/raths http://www.wordnik.com/words/outgrabe Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:24 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/outgrabe http://www.wordnik.com/words/jabberwock Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:15 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/jabberwock http://www.wordnik.com/words/jubjub Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:11 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/jubjub http://www.wordnik.com/words/frumious Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:03 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/frumious http://www.wordnik.com/words/bandersnatch Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:23:01 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/bandersnatch http://www.wordnik.com/words/vorpal Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:53 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/vorpal http://www.wordnik.com/words/manxome Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:47 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/manxome http://www.wordnik.com/words/tumtum Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:42 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/tumtum http://www.wordnik.com/words/uffish Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:38 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/uffish http://www.wordnik.com/words/whiffling Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:33 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/whiffling http://www.wordnik.com/words/tulgey Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:30 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/tulgey http://www.wordnik.com/words/burbled Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:25 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/burbled http://www.wordnik.com/words/snicker-snack Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:22 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/snicker-snack http://www.wordnik.com/words/galumphing Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:19 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/galumphing http://www.wordnik.com/words/hast Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:16 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/hast http://www.wordnik.com/words/thou Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:14 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/thou http://www.wordnik.com/words/slain Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:12 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/slain http://www.wordnik.com/words/beamish Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:09 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/beamish http://www.wordnik.com/words/frabjous Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:06 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/frabjous http://www.wordnik.com/words/callooh Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:03 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/callooh http://www.wordnik.com/words/callay Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:22:01 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/callay http://www.wordnik.com/words/chortled Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:21:47 +0000 http://www.wordnik.com/words/chortled
