**FIRST RIGHT ANSWER GETS MADE THE BRAINLIEST**

’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.

Respuesta :

In the first stanza of 'Jabberwocky' Carroll jumps right into the text using strange and nonsensical words. He describes the scene as “brillig” and filled with “slithy toves”. ... This word could reference a creature or some kind of plant. It sounds similar to another word “grove,” such as a grove of trees. All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe. Consider Carroll's use of (invented) words in this stanza. ... Carroll is using both 'slithy' and 'mimsy' as portmanteau words: slithy, for example, is a blend of slimy + lithe, while mimsy suggests miserable + flimsy. In "Jabberwocky," Carroll uses nonsensical words throughout a typical ballad form to tell a tale of good versus evil, which culminates in the killing of the fearsome Jabberwock. “Brillig”: four o'clock in the afternoon — the time when you begin broiling things for dinner. “Slithy”: lithe and slimy. ' Lithe' is the same as 'active'. “Toves”: curious creatures that are something like badgers, something like lizards, and something like corkscrews.
