A Jewish Duet
As abalone clings
The cabaletta lingers,
The Ealdorman sings
His gaberdine in his fingers.
They sing Jabberwocky songs;
A cabala tune it doth sound,
As the leavy hillsides long;
Nae but to be able to sing along.
That pachydermous man and his lady
To each other roband under trees shady.
P.S. In this context the word "Jabberwocky" means: meaningless syllables that seem to make sense
.
