"Jabberwocky" by Lewis Carroll

'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 Jabberwocky, 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 he 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 tugley 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, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
He chortled in joy.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

GENERAL DISCLAIMER: The characters and universes described in these fanfictions are the property of their respective owners. I do not profit monetarily from these stories, and I intend no copyright infringement.

Note as of 7/2/2014: I apologize for not finishing In the End, although I had promised to. It was too emotional for me to write about, so while it might be finished someday, for now, please do not expect it to happen. My new story, Halo, is a Star Wars fanfiction. It is a rewrite of a fanfiction abandoned several years ago by Helena of Trebond, with her permission. There will be significant differences between her original work and mine, however. I hope everyone enjoys it.

Happy reading!
