He bent his knees to slithe and sprawl,

Till, fagged and flausted by disdoot,

He brooded by the wall.

And, as in broody ease he lay,

The Jazzerwock, with shoulders bare,

Came swhiffling through the juggly fray

And grapped him by the hair.

One, two! One, two! And through and through

The prancing maze they reeled and pressed,

Till both his feet ignored the beat
