Generate Lewis Caroll's Jabberwocky [FINALIZED]
The task is to generate the text of Lewis Caroll's Jabberwocky. The text, quoted from [Wikipedia,](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jabberwocky) is as follows (I've replaced a non-ASCII character with ASCII, otherwise it's direct copy&paste from the linked Wikipedia article): ``` '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 hast thou slain the Jabberwock? Come to my arms, my beamish boy! O frabjous day! Callooh! 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. ``` The text above has to be produced verbatim, including newlines (you can use any of the common newline characters or character sequences, provided you stay consistent). Note that there is a newline character at the end of the last line. This is code-golf, so the shortest entry per language wins.
