I could hook you up with the warez copy.... errrrrr I mean "Where's copymachine?"

Let me recite you a bit of "Alice" the book:

"Twas brilig and the slithy toves
did gyre and gimble in the wabes
all mimsy were the boragoves
and the moomwraiths outgrabe

Beware the Jabberwock my son,
the jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the jub-jub bird and shun
the fumerous bandersnatch!

He took his vorpal sword in hand,
long time the maxium foe he sought,
so rested he by the tum tum tree
and stood a while in thought

And as in offish thought he stood
the Jabberwock with eyes of flame,
came whiffling through the tulgy wood
and burbled as he came!

One two, One two and through and through
his vorpal sword went 'Snickersnack'
he left it dead, and with its head
he went galumphing back

And hast though slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms my beamish boy!
O Frabjoyious Day! Callouh, Coulua
he chortled in his joy.

Twas brilig and the slithy toves
did gyre and gimble in the wabes
all mimsy were the boragoves
and the moomwraiths outgrabe."

Read through this poem a few times and compare and contrast it to the play and Alice's story. For your info, she found this in a book she opened. It was written reversed due to the mirroring effect of Wonderland. Gl on your paper!
