jamēþena
Line 7 of the KÄ“len Jabberwocky:
il jÄ«la þŠñi macÄppacÄe matÄλisse rÄ xÅ rÄ jamēþena jaxÄ“la kiÄ“;
(See Nov 7th’s post for an introduction.)
jamēþena is a new word, meaning “woods, set of trees”. It is related to the word jamēþa ‘tree’, which I haven’t blogged yet. rÄ jamēþena jaxÄ“la kiÄ“ is “through the dark woods”.

In the afternoon, the circular lizards did gyre and gimble around the shadow-stick.
The easily-annoyed thin-winged bird-spiders were annoyed.
The lost chicken-pigs make cough-cries!
Beware macÄppacÄe, its biting teeth, its many catching claws,
the frumious makÄ«maþÄlen, the macÅ«cÅ« bird
Be away from them.
For 1/8th of a day, he searched for his enemy, a deadly blade in his hand.
Therefore, leaning and still, he thought under the jasÄtsÄtena.
At that moment, mercurial macÄppacÄe came to there through the dark woods.
