attempt.

Or a pulling by the ear.
[008]
This Rectory has been supposed to have been built in the
time of Edward VI., but recent discoveries clearly assign
its origin to a much earlier period. A stone has been
found in an island formed by the river Tees on which is
inscribed the letter "A," which is justly conjectured to
stand for the name of the great King Alfred, in whose
reign this house was probably built.
[009]
The poet entreats pardon for having represented a donkey
under this dignified name.
[010]
With reference to these remarkable animals see "Moans
from the Miserable," page 12.
[011]
A full account of the history and misfortunes of these
interesting creatures may be found in the first "Lay of
Sorrow," page 36.
[012]
It is a singular fact that a donkey makes a point of
returning any kicks offered to it.
[013]
This valiant knight, besides having a heart of steel and
nerves of iron, has been lately in the habit of carrying
a brick in his eye.
[014]
She was sister to both.
[015]
The reader will probably be at a loss to discover the
nature of this triumph, as no object was gained, and the
donkey was obviously the victor; on this point, however,
we are sorry to say, we can offer no good explanation.
[016]
Much more acceptable to a true knight than "corn-land"
which the Roman people were so foolish as to give to
their daring champion, Horatius.

Lewis Carroll composed this poem while staying with his
cousins, the Misses Wilcox, at Whitburn, near Sunderland.
To while away an evening the whole party sat down to a
game of verse-making, and "Jabberwocky" was his
contribution.
[018]
Coesper from coena and vesper.

Lubriciles, from lubricus and
graciles. See the commentary in "Humpty Dumpty's
square," which will also explain ultravia, and, if
it requires explanation, moestenui.

Egnia: "muffish"—segnis; therefore "uffish"
= egnis. This is a conjectural analogy, but I can
suggest no better solution.
[022]
Susuffrus: "whiffling," susurrus:
"whistling."
[023]
Spicula: see the picture.
[024]
Burbur: apparently a labial variation of
murmur, stronger but more dissonant.
