Jabberwocky - Lewis Carroll

This quote was added by user13934
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!

Actually, he invented a lot of those words. That's pretty cool.

He invented the word "manxome" himself, I found out. It means "fearsome"
