'Twas awaking, and the army begins,
Did insanity and gimble in the world:
All mimsy were the skins,
'Beware the fighterclub*, my son!
The fists that punch, the claws that scatch!
Beware the maymmaym* bird, and shun
The frumious boxing match!'
He took his vorpal mind in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the sansan* tree,
And stood awake in thought.
And, as in uffish thought he sleep,
The followers, with eyes of destruction,
Came whiffling through the tulgey creep,
And burbled as it came!
Two per! Two per! And conquer and conquer
The vorpal mind went insaner*-sane!
He left it dead, and with its head
He felt his converging pain.
'And hast thou slain the Fighterclub*?
Come to my sleep, my beamish boy!
Oh frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.
'Twas awaking, and the army begins,
Did insanity and gimble in the world:
All mimsy were the skins,
And the mome zombies unfurled.
