As practice, and experiment, I am creating illustrations for the seven verses of Jabberwocky. This is a work in progress, as you can see. I will add more images as I get to them.

Each image is a thumbnail link to a larger (400x400) image.

Yes, the image called "borogove2" actually shows two toves. I feel pretty silly about that.

Jabberwocky

Lewis Carroll

Illustrations copyright 1999 by Andrew Plotkin

'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 has thou slain the Jabberwock?  Come to my arms, my beamish boy! O frabjous day! Calloh! 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.
