so patient with little sufferers and Tommy Caffrey could never be got to

of winsome Irish girlhood as one could wish to see. She was pronounced

ointments could make them though it was not true that she used to wear

way to tears, she could have a good cry and relieve her pentup feelings
[16881]
just thinking would the day ever come when she could call herself his
[16882]
little wife to be. Then they could talk about her till they went blue in
[17018]
oldtime chivalry through her lattice window. You could see there was a
[17031]
could down towards the seaweedy rocks. Needless to say poor Tommy was

expressive, but could you trust them? People were so queer. She could

her kick the ball and perhaps he could see the bright steel buckles of
[17131]
a protestant or methodist she could convert him easily if he truly loved
[17135]
to know all, to forgive all if she could make him fall in love with her,
[17144]
heart. Gerty could picture the whole scene in the church, the stained
[17153]
hair for fear he could see, not to be troubled because that was only the
[17158]
was so kind and holy and often and often she thought and thought could
[17180]
long because it wasn’t natural so she could just go and throw her hat
[17185]
because she was a good runner she ran like that so that he could see
[17198]
mistake in all her life because Gerty could see without looking that
[17218]
mile before you found a head of hair the like of that. She could almost

tingling in every nerve. She put on her hat so that she could see from
[17230]
no-one could get on with her poking her nose into what was no concern of
[17248]
So over she went and when he saw her coming she could see him take his
[17251]
Gerty could see that he had enormous control over himself. One moment he
[17257]
right time and Gerty could see him taking out his watch, listening to it
[17268]
flowers and Father Conroy got up and settled it all right and she could
[17271]
could see and he was looking all the time that he was winding the watch
[17290]
her but Gerty could pay them back in their own coin and she just
[17311]
for Mr Reggy with his swank and his bit of money she could just chuck
[17314]
pieces. And if ever after he dared to presume she could give him one

thither, with a tiny lost cry. And she could see far away the lights of
[17367]
that she too could write poetry if she could only express herself like
[17421]
call. If they could run like rossies she could sit so she said she could
[17426]
alone without the others to pry and pass remarks and she knew he could
[17439]
something not very nice that you could imagine sometimes in the bed. But
[17441]
all the difference because she could almost feel him draw her face to
[17459]
entrancing blush from straining back and he could see her other things
[17599]
Dust. Shark liver oil they use to clean. Could do it myself. Save. Was
[17657]
could whistle. Mouth made for that. Like Molly. Why that highclass whore

scarcely and often not even scarcely could subsist valiantly and for an
[18291]
the board that no wight could devise a fuller ne richer. And there was
[18380]
overmuch drunken and the best word he could have of him was that he
[18420]
could save so dark is destiny. And she was wondrous stricken of heart
[18592]
he had in his bosom a spike named Bitterness which could not by words be
[18595]
could he not have endeavoured to have found again as in his youth the
[18599]
Why, he could not but hear unless he had plugged him up the tube
[18623]
but notion and they could conceive no thought of it for, first,
[18712]
a bare tester in his purse he could always bring himself off with
[18726]
who could ill keep him to school to learn his letters and the use of
[18777]
could doss and dung to his heart’s content. By this time the father of
[18778]
the faithful (for so they called him) was grown so heavy that he could
[18809]
but he could never learn a word of it except the first personal pronoun
[18898]
passage that had late befallen him, could not forbear to tell it his
[18902]
assistance we could give? Who, upon his offer, thanked him very
[18957]
cloak along! I could weep to think of it. Then, though it had poured
[19013]
when I say that if need were I could produce a cloud of witnesses to the
[19060]
and inglorious retreat. Not but what he could feel with mettlesome youth
[19084]
potency of the old bucko that could still knock another child out of
[19164]
line so that (as he said) one ear could hear what the other spoke, the
[19334]
a hand on the shoulder near him. Have no fear. He could not leave his
[19335]
mother an orphan. The young man’s face grew dark. All could see how
[19342]
Even Phyllis could not contain herself. She waved her scarf and cried:

was mentioned in dispatches. I did all a white man could. (With quiet
[20901]
somnambulism in my client’s family. If the accused could speak he
[20902]
could a tale unfold—one of the strangest that have ever been narrated
[20930]
to do anything ungentlemanly which injured modesty could object to or
[21013]
he said, he could conjure up. He urged me (Stating that he felt it

STEPHEN: (Murmurs.) Continue. Lie. Hold me. Caress. I never could read

[25395]
marauders ready to decamp with whatever boodle they could in one fell
[25421]
tell him where on God’s earth he could get something, anything at all,
[25504]
remotest idea when. Being a levelheaded individual who could give points
[25559]
pride, quite legitimate, out of you. You could go back perhaps, he
[25572]
and he could drink it with the oatmealwater for milk after the Friday
[25597]
exceedingly plucky deed which he could not too highly praise, so that
[25598]
frankly he was utterly at a loss to fathom what earthly reason could be
[25637]
Fitzharris, the invincible, though he could not vouch for the actual
[25665]
Stephen, who was trying his dead best to yawn if he could, suffering
[25719]
As for Mr Bloom he could neither make head or tail of the whole business
[25775]
Mr Bloom could easily picture his advent on this scene, the homecoming

success, providing puffs in the local papers could be managed by some
[25910]
fellow with a bit of bounce who could pull the indispensable wires and
[26068]

could truthfully state, he, as a paterfamilias, was a stalwart advocate
[26190]
and concentrate and remember before he could say:

genuine? He could spin those yarns for hours on end all night long and

[26480]
became general and all agreed that that was a fact. You could grow

could not spare a single one of her sons.
[26531]
time went on, that turned out to be how the cat jumped all he could

He could hear, of course, all kinds of words changing colour like those

little thing like that could militate against you. It was in fact only a

matter of months and he could easily foresee him participating in

had some I could easily have slipped a couple into my muff when I
[31072]
after one days wear I could have brought them back to Lewers this
[31129]
crib at Inchicore in the Blessed Virgins arms sure no woman could have

side because how could she go to the chamber when she wanted to and she
[31138]
they could put him up on a throne to count the money all the day of
[31142]
advertisements when he could have been in Mr Cuffes still only for
[31143]
what he did then sending me to try and patch it up I could have got him
[31158]
to bring him into and she as insolent as ever she could be with her
