Finding Respite in My Studying

Jabberwocky
by Lewis Carrol
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

There isn't anything to get. It's just part of a famous poem by Lewis Carrol. They talk about it on Alice and Wonderland (Alice and I think the Rabbit). Some scholars say it represents something (the entire poem) others say it's just non-sensical. There is a whole genre of non-sensical literature from the 1800's and this is what that is classified as.
