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.

    Alas, not original like Sprog, just an individual with quite refined tastes quoting from the excellent classic poem by Lewis Carroll https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/42916/jabberwocky
