Nix.... They most certainly 'outgrabe' although you got the usual mistake of borogove correct....

>Jujub

Nix.... It's 'Jubjub'....

But you did quote that from memory, yes?

But there are any number of incorrect versions around.... Lot's of them have 'tulgey wook' for instance. Yuck....

See http://www.jabberwocky.com/carroll/jabber/jabberwocky.html for the real thing, and the home page from that http://www.jabberwocky.com/carroll/jabber/ is just wonderful.

(Or, just, um, check out your 'Annotated Alice', which you _do_ have, don't you?)

And, we Carrollians need to stick together.

'Alice' has always been one of those volumes I would not want to be on a desert isle without.
