1. Telemachus

[11] —Come up, Kinch! Come up, you fearful jesuit!
[39] the current, will you?
[58] We must go to Athens. Will you come if I can get the aunt to fork out
[76] thinks you’re not a gentleman. God, these bloody English! Bursting
[77] with money and indigestion. Because he comes from Oxford. You know,
[78] Dedalus, you have the real Oxford manner. He can’t make you out. O, my
[79] name for you is the best: Kinch, the knife-blade.
[86] —A woful lunatic! Mulligan said. Were you in a funk?
[90] shooting a black panther. You saved men from drowning. I’m not a hero,
[108] snotgreen. You can almost taste it, can’t you?
[115] ponton. Ah, Dedalus, the Greeks! I must teach you. You must read them
[128] —The aunt thinks you killed your mother, he said. That’s why she
[129] won’t let me have anything to do with you.
[133] —You could have knelt down, damn it, Kinch, when your dying mother
[134] asked you, Buck Mulligan said. I’m hyperborean as much as you. But to
[135] think of your mother begging you with her last breath to kneel down and
[136] pray for her. And you refused. There is something sinister in you....
[160] —Ah, poor dogsbody! he said in a kind voice. I must give you a shirt
[169] stripe, grey. You’ll look spiffing in them. I’m not joking, Kinch.
[170] You look damn well when you’re dressed.
[185] says you have g. p. i. He’s up in Dottyville with Connolly Norman.
[193] —Look at yourself, he said, you dreadful bard!
[207] Wilde were only alive to see you!
[217] —It’s not fair to tease you like that, Kinch, is it? he said kindly.
[218] God knows you have more spirit than any of them.
[225] thinks you’re not a gentleman. His old fellow made his tin by selling
[226] jalap to Zulus or some bloody swindle or other. God, Kinch, if you and I
[233] one that knows what you are. Why don’t you trust me more? What have
[234] you up your nose against me? Is it Haines? If he makes any noise here
[244] don’t want to be debagged! Don’t you play the giddy ox with me!
[256] quite frank with you. What have you against me now?
[261] —Do you wish me to tell you? he asked.
[271] —Do you remember the first day I went to your house after my
[279] —You were making tea, Stephen said, and went across the landing to
[281] drawingroom. She asked you who was in your room.
[285] —You said, Stephen answered, O, it’s only Dedalus whose mother is
[295] —And what is death, he asked, your mother’s or yours or my own? You
[298] thing and nothing else. It simply doesn’t matter. You wouldn’t kneel
[299] down to pray for your mother on her deathbed when she asked you. Why?
[300] Because you have the cursed jesuit strain in you, only it’s injected
[303] picks buttercups off the quilt. Humour her till it’s over. You crossed
[304] her last wish in death and yet you sulk with me because I don’t whinge
[328] —Are you up there, Mulligan?
[416] Touch him for a quid, will you? A guinea, I mean.
[422] —If you want it, Stephen said.
[453] you?
[459] —Have you the key? a voice asked.
[489] —O, damn you and your Paris fads! Buck Mulligan said. I want Sandycove
[496] —The blessings of God on you! Buck Mulligan cried, jumping up from his
[507] —I’m giving you two lumps each, he said. But, I say, Mulligan, you
[508] do make strong tea, don’t you?
[521] send you don’t make them in the one pot.
[533] —Can you recall, brother, is mother Grogan’s tea and water pot
[538] —Do you now? Buck Mulligan said in the same tone. Your reasons, pray?
[546] and blinking his eyes pleasantly. Do you think she was? Quite charming!
[601] —Are you a medical student, sir? the old woman asked.
[614] —Do you understand what he says? Stephen asked her.
[616] —Is it French you are talking, sir? the old woman said to Haines.
[620] —Irish, Buck Mulligan said. Is there Gaelic on you?
[622] —I thought it was Irish, she said, by the sound of it. Are you from
[635] us out some more tea, Kinch. Would you like a cup, ma’am?
[637] —No, thank you, sir, the old woman said, slipping the ring of the
[642] —Have you your bill? We had better pay her, Mulligan, hadn’t we?
[665] —Ask nothing more of me, sweet. All I can give you I give.
[703] —I intend to make a collection of your sayings if you will let me.
[714] —Wait till you hear him on Hamlet, Haines.
[729] —You put your hoof in it now. What did you say that for?
[734] —I blow him out about you, Buck Mulligan said, and then you come along
[745] —To tell you the God’s truth I think you’re right. Damn all else
[746] they are good for. Why don’t you play them as I do? To hell with them
[771] —Are you coming, you fellows?
[774] out, Kinch. You have eaten all we left, I suppose. Resigned he passed
[785] —Did you bring the key?
[792] —Down, sir! How dare you, sir!
[796] —Do you pay rent for this tower?
[804] —Rather bleak in wintertime, I should say. Martello you call it?
[818] —You couldn’t manage it under three pints, Kinch, could you?
[822] —You pique my curiosity, Haines said amiably. Is it some paradox?
[868] —I’m the queerest young fellow that ever you heard.
[899] —O, Haines said, you have heard it before?
[903] —You’re not a believer, are you? Haines asked. I mean, a believer in
[912] —Thank you, Stephen said, taking a cigarette.
[919] —Yes, of course, he said, as they went on again. Either you believe or
[920] you don’t, isn’t it? Personally I couldn’t stomach that idea of a
[921] personal God. You don’t stand for that, I suppose?
[923] —You behold in me, Stephen said with grim displeasure, a horrible
[939] —After all, I should think you are able to free yourself. You are your
[951] —Italian? Haines said again. What do you mean?
[960] like that, I daresay. We feel in England that we have treated you rather
[1004] —Is the brother with you, Malachi?
[1028] —Going over next week to stew. You know that red Carlisle girl, Lily?
[1054] —Are you going in here, Malachi?
[1062] —Are you not coming in? Buck Mulligan asked.
[1085] —We’ll see you again, Haines said, turning as Stephen walked up the

2. Nestor

[1115] —You, Cochrane, what city sent for him?
[1143] —You, Armstrong, Stephen said. What was the end of Pyrrhus?
[1149] —Wait. You, Armstrong. Do you know anything about Pyrrhus?
[1198] —Where do you begin in this? Stephen asked, opening another book.
[1309] to you, sir.
[1313] —Do you understand how to do them now? he asked.
[1318] —Can you do them yourself? Stephen asked.
[1347] —Do you understand now? Can you work the second for yourself?
[1372] —You had better get your stick and go out to the others, Stephen said
[1381] —Run on, Stephen said. Mr Deasy is calling you.
[1393] —Will you wait in my study for a moment, Mr Deasy said, till I restore
[1436] —Three twelve, he said. I think you’ll find that’s right.
[1438] —Thank you, sir, Stephen said, gathering the money together with shy
[1441] —No thanks at all, Mr Deasy said. You have earned it.
[1447] —Don’t carry it like that, Mr Deasy said. You’ll pull it out
[1448] somewhere and lose it. You just buy one of these machines. You’ll find
[1459] —Because you don’t save, Mr Deasy said, pointing his finger. You
[1460] don’t know yet what money is. Money is power. When you have lived
[1469] but an Englishman too. Do you know what is the pride of the English?
[1470] Do you know what is the proudest word you will ever hear from an
[1481] —I will tell you, he said solemnly, what is his proudest boast. I paid
[1486] —I paid my way. I never borrowed a shilling in my life. Can you feel
[1487] that? I owe nothing. Can you?
[1499] —I knew you couldn’t, he said joyously. But one day you must feel
[1508] —You think me an old fogey and an old tory, his thoughtful voice
[1510] famine in ’46. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal
[1512] of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some
[1538] —That reminds me, Mr Deasy said. You can do me a favour, Mr Dedalus,
[1573] the joust of life. You mean that knockkneed mother’s darling who seems
[1601] Thanking you for the hospitality of your columns.
[1603] —I want that to be printed and read, Mr Deasy said. You will see at
[1633] —They sinned against the light, Mr Deasy said gravely. And you can see
[1649] —What do you mean? Mr Deasy asked.
[1658] What if that nightmare gave you a back kick?
[1676] —I am happier than you are, he said. We have committed many errors and
[1691] —I foresee, Mr Deasy said, that you will not remain here very long
[1692] at this work. You were not born to be a teacher, I think. Perhaps I am
[1697] And here what will you learn more?
[1708] —Yes, Mr Deasy said. You have two copies there. If you can have them
[1713] —I will try, Stephen said, and let you know tomorrow. I know two

[2790] You are my lookingglass from night to morning.
[2791] I’d rather have you without a farthing

[3376] —Well, glad to see you looking fit, he said. Meet you knocking around.
[3380] —Tell you what, M’Coy said. You might put down my name at the
[3381] funeral, will you? I’d like to go but I mightn’t be able, you see.

[3472] I got your last letter to me and thank you very much for it. I am sorry
[3473] you did not like my last letter. Why did you enclose the stamps? I am
[3474] awfully angry with you. I do wish I could punish you for that. I called
[3475] you naughty boy because I do not like that other world. Please tell me
[3476] what is the real meaning of that word? Are you not happy in your home
[3477] you poor little naughty boy? I do wish I could do something for you.
[3478] Please tell me what you think of poor me. I often think of the beautiful
[3479] name you have. Dear Henry, when will we meet? I think of you so often
[3480] you have no idea. I have never felt myself so much drawn to a man as
[3481] you. I feel so bad about. Please write me a long letter and tell me
[3482] more. Remember if you do not I will punish you. So now you know what I
[3483] will do to you, you naughty boy, if you do not wrote. O how I long to
[3484] meet you. Henry dear, do not deny my request before my patience are
[3485] exhausted. Then I will tell you all. Goodbye now, naughty darling, I

6. Hades

[3896] —After you, Mr Bloom said.
[3914] will touch you dead. Wash and shampoo. I believe they clip the nails and
[3984] a gate. I’ll tickle his catastrophe, believe you me.
[4021] Do you follow me?
[4035] —Unless I’m greatly mistaken. What do you think, Martin?
[4103] —O, draw him out, Martin, Mr Power said eagerly. Wait till you hear
[4113] —Did you read Dan Dawson’s speech? Martin Cunningham asked.
[4167] —How do you do? Martin Cunningham said, raising his palm to his brow
[4170] —He doesn’t see us, Mr Power said. Yes, he does. How do you do?
[4200] good idea, you see...
[4202] —Are you going yourself?
[4205] county Clare on some private business. You see the idea is to tour the
[4206] chief towns. What you lose on one you can make up on the other.
[4210] Have you good artists?
[4244] there is no carnal. You would imagine that would get played out pretty
[4491] municipal funeral trams like they have in Milan, you know. Run the line
[4493] and all. Don’t you see what I mean?
[4605] with their pants down. Never forgive you after. Fifteen.

[4784] shook it again. Then he came back and put it back in the bucket. As you
[4785] were before you rested. It’s all written down: he has to do it.
[4850] —The reverend gentleman read the service too quickly, don’t you
[4874] every day. One fine day it gets bunged up: and there you are. Lots of
[4876] the thing else. The resurrection and the life. Once you are dead you are

[4990] sleep. Have you ever seen a ghost? Well, I have. It was a pitchdark
[4993] if taken young. You might pick up a young widow here. Men like that.
[5002] Sitting or kneeling you couldn’t. Standing? His head might come
[5032] Keep out the damp. You must laugh sometimes so better do it that way.
[5036] Seems a sort of a joke. Read your own obituary notice they say you live
[5037] longer. Gives you second wind. New lease of life.
[5039] —How many have you for tomorrow? the caretaker asked.
[5051] I’d give a trifle to know who he is. Always someone turns up you never
[5057] you come to look at it.
[5060] How could you possibly do so?
[5061] Poor Dignam! His last lie on the earth in his box. When you think of
[5096] Well, it is a long rest. Feel no more. It’s the moment you feel. Must
[5099] yet. Then darkened deathchamber. Light they want. Whispering around you.
[5100] Would you like to see a priest? Then rambling and wandering. Delirium
[5101] all you hid all your life. The death struggle. His sleep is not natural.
[5107] People talk about you a bit: forget you. Don’t forget to pray for him.
[5111] We are praying now for the repose of his soul. Hoping you’re well and
[5115] Does he ever think of the hole waiting for himself? They say you do when
[5116] you shiver in the sun. Someone walking over it. Callboy’s warning.
[5117] Near you. Mine over there towards Finglas, the plot I bought. Mamma,
[5127] to get shut of them as soon as you are sure there’s no.
[5143] —L, Mr Bloom said. Leopold. And you might put down M’Coy’s name
[5151] Charley, you’re my darling. That was why he asked me to. O well, does
[5155] —And tell us, Hynes said, do you know that fellow in the, fellow was
[5220] bucket. More interesting if they told you what they were. So and So,
[5247] you are now so once were we.
[5249] Besides how could you remember everybody? Eyes, walk, voice. Well, the
[5253] hellohello amawf krpthsth. Remind you of the voice like the photograph
[5254] reminds you of the face. Otherwise you couldn’t remember the face
[5291] Enough of this place. Brings you a bit nearer every time. Last time I
[5295] gravesores. Give you the creeps after a bit. I will appear to you after
[5296] death. You will see my ghost after death. My ghost will haunt you after
[5299] yet. Feel live warm beings near you. Let them sleep in their maggoty
[5334] —Thank you, he said shortly.
[5344] Thank you. How grand we are this morning!

7. Aeolus

[5387] —Just cut it out, will you? Mr Bloom said, and I’ll take it round to
[5422] —Don’t you think his face is like Our Saviour? Red Murray whispered.
[5510] —If you want to draw the cashier is just going to lunch, he said,
[5513] —Did you? Hynes asked.
[5515] —Mm, Mr Bloom said. Look sharp and you’ll catch him.
[5527] —Excuse me, councillor, he said. This ad, you see. Keyes, you
[5536] —But wait, Mr Bloom said. He wants it changed. Keyes, you see. He
[5565] —You know yourself, councillor, just what he wants. Then round the
[5566] top in leaded: the house of keys. You see? Do you think that’s a good
[5572] —The idea, Mr Bloom said, is the house of keys. You know, councillor,
[5573] the Manx parliament. Innuendo of home rule. Tourists, you know, from the
[5574] isle of Man. Catches the eye, you see. Can you do that?
[5579] —We can do that, the foreman said. Have you the design?
[5582] house there too. I’ll just run out and ask him. Well, you can do that
[5583] and just a little par calling attention. You know the usual. Highclass
[5603] I should have said when he clapped on his topper. Thank you. I ought
[5630] —Then I’ll get the design, Mr Nannetti, he said, and you’ll give
[5662] ox and the dog kills the cat. Sounds a bit silly till you come to look
[5701] —Agonising Christ, wouldn’t it give you a heartburn on your arse?
[5774] —How are you, Dedalus?
[5788] —You’re looking extra.
[5806] breath. Wouldn’t know which to believe. One story good till you hear
[5865] —Getonouthat, you bloody old pedagogue! the editor said in
[5878] —Will you join us, Myles? Ned Lambert asked.
[5919] —That’ll be all right, Myles Crawford said more calmly. Never you
[5963] —Out of this with you, professor MacHugh said gruffly.
[5983] —My fault, Mr Bloom said, suffering his grip. Are you hurt? I’m in a
[6011] —Begone! he said. The world is before you.
[6031] and you’ll kick. O, my rib risible! Taking off his flat spaugs and the
[6071] —Eh? You bloody old Roman empire? Myles Crawford said.
[6083] —That’s it, he said. We are the fat. You and I are the fat in the
[6111] —Do you know that story about chief baron Palles? J. J. O’Molloy
[6115] —First my riddle, Lenehan said. Are you ready?
[6125] —How do you do? the editor said, holding out a hand. Come in. Your
[6151] shoulders. Foot and mouth? Are you turned...?
[6172] the ramparts of Vienna. Don’t you forget! Maximilian Karl O’Donnell,
[6175] geese. O yes, every time. Don’t you forget that!
[6178] turning a horseshoe paperweight. Saving princes is a thank you job.
[6184] —I’ll tell you how it was, Myles Crawford began. A Hungarian it was
[6228] I can’t see the Joe Miller. Can you?
[6257] —Paris, past and present, he said. You look like communards.
[6260] quiet mockery. Or was it you shot the lord lieutenant of Finland between
[6261] you? You look as though you had done the deed. General Bobrikoff.
[6284] “YOU CAN DO IT!”
[6288] —I want you to write something for me, he said. Something with a bite
[6289] in it. You can do it. I see it in your face. In the lexicon of youth...
[6302] —He wants you for the pressgang, J. J. O’Molloy said.
[6306] —You can do it, Myles Crawford repeated, clenching his hand in
[6309] Clarence. Gallaher, that was a pressman for you. That was a pen. You
[6310] know how he made his mark? I’ll tell you. That was the smartest piece
[6312] the invincibles, murder in the Phoenix park, before you were born, I
[6313] suppose. I’ll show you.
[6328] me. You know Holohan?
[6337] —Gumley? he said. You don’t say so? A friend of my father’s, is
[6342] Gallaher do? I’ll tell you. Inspiration of genius. Cabled right away.
[6343] Have you Weekly Freeman of 17 March? Right. Have you got that?
[6348] Have you got that? Right.
[6388] Nightmare from which you will never awake.
[6408] —Hello?... Are you there?... Yes, he’s here still. Come across
[6411] —Where do you find a pressman like that now, eh? the editor cried.
[6421] —Talking about the invincibles, he said, did you see that some hawkers
[6431] Psha! Press and the bar! Where have you a man now at the bar like those
[6437] Would anyone wish that mouth for her kiss? How do you know? Why did you
[6461] —My dear Myles, he said, flinging his cigarette aside, you put a false
[6464] with you. Why not bring in Henry Grattan and Flood and Demosthenes and
[6475] face. Irish volunteers. Where are you now? Established 1763. Dr Lucas.
[6476] Who have you now like John Philpot Curran? Psha!
[6535] —You like it? J. J. O’Molloy asked Stephen.
[6546] —Professor Magennis was speaking to me about you, J. J. O’Molloy
[6547] said to Stephen. What do you think really of that hermetic crowd, the
[6550] interviewer that you came to him in the small hours of the morning to
[6551] ask him about planes of consciousness. Magennis thinks you must have
[6567] —You know Gerald Fitzgibbon. Then you can imagine the style of his
[6576] —It was the speech, mark you, the professor said, of a finished
[6591] —Taylor had come there, you must know, from a sickbed. That he
[6619] crooked smokes. Noble words coming. Look out. Could you try your hand at
[6630] could be corrupted. Ah, curse you! That’s saint Augustine.
[6632] —Why will you jews not accept our culture, our religion and our
[6633] language? You are a tribe of nomad herdsmen: we are a mighty people. You
[6636] furrow the waters of the known globe. You have but emerged from
[6647] —You pray to a local and obscure idol: our temples, majestic and
[6651] arms. Vagrants and daylabourers are you called: the world trembles at
[6693] —You take my breath away. It is not perchance a French compliment?
[6725] —I hope you will live to see it published. Myles, one moment.
[6786] the other have you the brawn, praising God and the Blessed Virgin,
[6834] the national library. House of keys, don’t you see? His name is Keyes.
[6841] —Will you tell him he can kiss my arse? Myles Crawford said throwing
[6866] back a bill for me no later than last week. Sorry, Jack. You must take
[6877] —Something for you, the professor explained to Myles Crawford. Two old
[6899] idea. I see what you mean.
[6917] —You remind me of Antisthenes, the professor said, a disciple of

[6968] FLO WANGLES—YET CAN YOU BLAME THEM?

[7025] such an idea? Eat you out of house and home. No families themselves to

[7575] —There are great times coming, Mary. Wait till you see.
[7583] Back out you get the knife. Hidden hand. Stay in. The firing squad.
[7587] You must have a certain fascination: Parnell. Arthur Griffith is a

[7636] coincidence. Course hundreds of times you think of a person and don’t

[7673] of that cow will pursue you through all eternity. They say it’s

[8246] you’re down. I know a fellow was trying to get into it. But they’re

[8421] opposite. Do you want to cross? There’s nothing in the way.

[9025] Mulligan is coming too. Moore asked him to bring Haines. Did you hear
[9038] —Thank you very much, Mr Russell, Stephen said, rising. If you will be
[9046] God ild you. The pigs’ paper. Bullockbefriending.
[9049] I feel we are. The Gaelic league wants something in Irish. I hope you
[9078] —Yes. So you think...

[9106] I don’t care a button, don’t you know, who is killed or who is
[9116] I may as well warn you that if you want to shake my belief that
[9117] Shakespeare is Hamlet you have a stern task before you.
[9136] Drummond of Hawthornden helped you at that stile.
[9159] —If you want to know what are the events which cast their shadow over
[9198] Do you know what you are talking about? Love, yes. Word known to all
[9226] Mr Magee likes to quote. Beware of what you wish for in youth because
[9227] you will get it in middle life. Why does he send to one who is a

[9332] Of course it’s all paradox, don’t you know, Hughes and hews and
[9334] the very essence of Wilde, don’t you know. The light touch.
[9339] You’re darned witty. Three drams of usquebaugh you drank with Dan
[9346] Wit. You would give your five wits for youth’s proud livery he pranks

[9372] O, you priestified Kinchite!

[9393] —The tramper Synge is looking for you, he said, to murder you. He
[9394] heard you pissed on his halldoor in Glasthule. He’s out in pampooties
[9395] to murder you.
[9402] —Murder you! he laughed.
[9437] Enniscorthy Guardian, 1903... Will you please?... Evans, conduct this
[9438] gentleman... If you just follow the atten... Or, please allow me... This
[9461] —He knows you. He knows your old fellow. O, I fear me, he is Greeker
[9482] and its foul pleasures. You know Manningham’s story of the burgher’s
[9503] twenty years what do you suppose poor Penelope in Stratford was doing
[9513] —Whom do you suspect? he challenged.
[9520] —As an Englishman, you mean, John sturdy Eglinton put in, he loved a

[9547] father’s shepherd. Explain you then. Explain the swansong too wherein
[9553] You mean the will.
[9604] —Do you mean he died so? Mr Best asked with slight concern. I mean...
[9607] for a king. O, I must tell you what Dowden said!
[9626] —The doctor can tell us what those words mean. You cannot eat your
[9653] I think you’re getting on very nicely. Just mix up a mixture of
[9711] mobled queen, even though you prove that a bed in those days was as
[9733] gentleman to see you. Me? Says he’s your father, sir. Give me my
[9746] death. If you hold that he, a greying man with two marriageable
[9749] Wittenberg then you must hold that his seventyyear old mother is the
[9764] What the hell are you driving at?
[9766] I know. Shut up. Blast you. I have reasons.
[9770] Are you condemned to do this?
[9828] I you he they.
[9841] BEST: That is my name, Richard, don’t you know. I hope you are
[9842] going to say a good word for Richard, don’t you know, for my sake.
[9883] Wait to be wooed and won. Ay, meacock. Who will woo you?
[9901] —You make good use of the name, John Eglinton allowed. Your own name
[9906] Fabulous artificer. The hawklike man. You flew. Whereto?
[9908] Pater, ait. Seabedabbled, fallen, weltering. Lapwing you are. Lapwing
[9913] —That’s very interesting because that brother motive, don’t you
[9914] know, we find also in the old Irish myths. Just what you say. The three
[9915] brothers Shakespeare. In Grimm too, don’t you know, the fairytales.
[9923] —I should like to know, he said, which brother you... I understand you
[9939] —Come, he said. Let us hear what you have to say of Richard and
[9940] Edmund. You kept them for the last, didn’t you?
[9942] —In asking you to remember those two noble kinsmen nuncle Richie and
[9950] mock to try you. Act. Be acted on.
[9958] —You will say those names were already in the chronicles from which
[9991] in the world he has created, in Much Ado about Nothing, twice in As you
[10024] to be divorced. If you like the epilogue look long on it: prosperous
[10061] —You are a delusion, said roundly John Eglinton to Stephen. You have
[10062] brought us all this way to show us a French triangle. Do you believe
[10067] —Are you going to write it? Mr Best asked. You ought to make it a
[10068] dialogue, don’t you know, like the Platonic dialogues Wilde wrote.
[10072] —Well, in that case, he said, I don’t see why you should expect
[10073] payment for it since you don’t believe it yourself. Dowden believes
[10085] —You are the only contributor to Dana who asks for pieces of silver.
[10089] Fraidrine. Two pieces of silver he lent me. Tide you over. Economics.
[10091] —For a guinea, Stephen said, you can publish this interview.
[10105] Come, Kinch. You have eaten all we left. Ay. I will serve you your orts
[10112] —We shall see you tonight, John Eglinton said. Notre ami Moore says
[10118] Ireland. I’ll be there. Come, Kinch, the bards must drink. Can you
[10160] Why won’t you wed a wife?
[10204] —Longworth is awfully sick, he said, after what you wrote about that
[10205] old hake Gregory. O you inquisitional drunken jewjesuit! She gets you
[10206] a job on the paper and then you go and slate her drivel to Jaysus.
[10207] Couldn’t you do the Yeats touch?

[10349] —Pilate! Wy don’t you old back that owlin mob?
[10366] —But mind you don’t post yourself into the box, little man, he said.
[10372] —Well, let me see if you can post a letter, Father Conmee said.

[10650] —Where did you try? Boody asked.
[10676] —Where did you get it? Katey asked.
[10713] —Put these in first, will you? he said.
[10732] —Can you send them by tram? Now?
[10743] —Will you write the address, sir?
[10747] —Send it at once, will you? he said. It’s for an invalid.
[10848] I can go after six if you’re not back. A quarter after. Yes, sir.
[10853] —Mr Boylan! Hello! That gentleman from Sport was in looking for you.

[453] you?
[10889] —If you will be so kind then, the clergyman said, the next time to

[10893] I’ll get those bags cleared away from the windows. You can take it
[10904] —You’re welcome, sir, Ned Lambert said. Drop in whenever you like.
[10905] Next week, say. Can you see?
[10907] —Yes, yes. Good afternoon, Mr Lambert. Very pleased to have met you.
[10925] —I thought you were at a new gunpowder plot, J. J. O’Molloy said.
[10930] Kildare after he set fire to Cashel cathedral. You know that one? I’m
[10948] —Chow! he said. Blast you!
[10957] —I was... Glasnevin this morning... poor little... what do you call
[10993] —Goodnight, M’Coy said abruptly. When you two begin...
[10999] —Tooraloo, Lenehan said. See you later.
[11005] —I know, M’Coy said. The drain, you mean.
[11062] —I’ll tell you a damn good one about comets’ tails, he said. Come

[11241] —It’s time for you, she said.
[11244] Are you trying to imitate your uncle John, the cornetplayer, head upon
[11250] —Stand up straight, girl, he said. You’ll get curvature of the
[11251] spine. Do you know what you look like?
[11256] —Give it up, father, Dilly said. All the people are looking at you.
[11260] —Did you get any money? Dilly asked.
[11265] —You got some, Dilly said, looking in his eyes.
[11267] —How do you know that? Mr Dedalus asked, his tongue in his cheek.
[11272] —I know you did, Dilly answered. Were you in the Scotch house now?
[11275] taught you to be so saucy? Here.
[11279] —See if you can do anything with that, he said.
[11281] —I suppose you got five, Dilly said. Give me more than that.
[11283] —Wait awhile, Mr Dedalus said threateningly. You’re like the rest of
[11284] them, are you? An insolent pack of little bitches since your poor mother
[11285] died. But wait awhile. You’ll all get a short shrift and a long day
[11286] from me. Low blackguardism! I’m going to get rid of you. Wouldn’t
[11310] —You got more than that, father, Dilly said.
[11312] —I’m going to show you a little trick, Mr Dedalus said. I’ll leave
[11313] you all where Jesus left the jews. Look, there’s all I have. I got
[11319] —Can’t you look for some money somewhere? Dilly said.

[11360] straight, Mr Crimmins. You know why? Palm oil. Is that a fact? Without
[11431] reminiscences of sir Jonah Barrington. When you look back on it all
[11475] And you who wrest old images from the burial earth? The brainsick words
[11485] without you and the throb always within. Your heart you sing of. I

[11704] —You could try our friend, Mr Power suggested backward.
[11791] you knew him or perhaps you did, though.

[12383] —O! shrieking, miss Kennedy cried. Will you ever forget his goggle
[12436] —O, miss Douce! miss Kennedy protested. You horrid thing!
[12438] And flushed yet more (you horrid!), more goldenly.
[12466] —That was exceedingly naughty of you, Mr Dedalus told her and pressed
[12471] —O go away! she said. You’re very simple, I don’t think.
[12478] —You must have been a doaty, miss Douce made answer. And what did the

[12718] See, not be seen. I think I’ll join you. Come on. Richie led on. Bloom
[12728] —Why don’t you grow? asked Blazes Boylan.
[12748] —I plunged a bit, said Boylan winking and drinking. Not on my own, you
[12819] —You’re the essence of vulgarity, she in gliding said.

[14070] —Lo, Joe, says I. How are you blowing? Did you see that bloody
[14073] —Soot’s luck, says Joe. Who’s the old ballocks you were talking
[14080] —What are you doing round those parts? says Joe.
[14095] —That the lay you’re on now? says Joe.
[14098] debts. But that’s the most notorious bloody robber you’d meet in a
[14101] to send you round here again or if he does, says he, I’ll have him
[14128] —Are you a strict t.t.? says Joe.
[14195] I dare him, says he, and I doubledare him. Come out here, Geraghty, you
[14223] The bloody mongrel let a grouse out of him would give you the creeps. Be
[14332] I’m telling you. A goodlooking sovereign.
[14336] —Were you robbing the poorbox, Joe? says I.
[14341] —I saw him before I met you, says I, sloping around by Pill lane and
[14351] Independent, if you please, founded by Parnell to be the workingman’s
[14353] Independent, and I’ll thank you and the marriages.
[14409] The bloody mongrel began to growl that’d put the fear of God in you
[14427] —Yes, says Alf. Hanging? Wait till I show you. Here, Terry, give us
[14428] a pony. That bloody old fool! Ten thousand pounds. You should have seen
[14433] —Who are you laughing at? says Bob Doran. Is that Bergan?
[14445] Then did you, chivalrous Terence, hand forth, as to the manner born,
[14446] that nectarous beverage and you offered the crystal cup to him that
[14465] —Here you are, says Alf, chucking out the rhino. Talking about
[14466] hanging, I’ll show you something you never saw. Hangmen’s letters.
[14471] —Are you codding? says I.
[14477] —Who are you laughing at? says Bob Doran.
[14487] —You what? says Joe, throwing down the letters. With who?
[14495] —Don’t you know he’s dead? says Joe.
[14506] —You saw his ghost then, says Joe, God between us and harm.
[14514] —Dead! says Alf. He’s no more dead than you are.
[14525] Begob he was what you might call flabbergasted.
[14552] We greet you, friends of earth, who are still in the body. Mind C. K.
[14604] Bob Doran starts doing the weeps about Paddy Dignam, true as you’re

[14663] them to hell out of my sight, Alf. Hello, Bloom, says he, what will you
[14710] phenomenon, don’t you see, because on account of the...
[14745] intelligent dog: give you the bloody pip. Then he starts scraping a few
[14768] off chewing the fat. And Bloom with his but don’t you see? and but
[14779] —You don’t grasp my point, says Bloom. What I mean is...
[14951] about the size of it. Gob, he’d let you pour all manner of drink down
[14952] his throat till the Lord would call him before you’d ever see the
[14970] —Afraid he’ll bite you? says the citizen, jeering.
[14976] —What’s on you, Garry? says he.
[14980] Such growling you never heard as they let off between them. Someone that
[15019] On you, Barney Kiernan,
[15024] So he told Terry to bring some water for the dog and, gob, you could
[15035] —Could you make a hole in another pint?
[15039] —Same again, Terry, says Joe. Are you sure you won’t have anything
[15042] —Thank you, no, says Bloom. As a matter of fact I just wanted to
[15043] meet Martin Cunningham, don’t you see, about this insurance of poor
[15044] Dignam’s. Martin asked me to go to the house. You see, he, Dignam, I
[15065] friend in court. Selling bazaar tickets or what do you call it royal
[15066] Hungarian privileged lottery. True as you’re there. O, commend me to
[15074] to tell her that. Shake hands, brother. You’re a rogue and I’m
[15080] you this favour. But, should I have overstepped the limits of reserve
[15084] actuate your conduct and I shall discharge the office you entrust to
[15090] heart, I feel sure, will dictate to you better than my inadequate words
[15105] screeching laughing at one another. How is your testament? Have you got
[15106] an old testament? Only Paddy was passing there, I tell you what. Then
[15164] —Are you sure, says Bloom, the councillor is going? I wanted to see
[15170] Field is going. I couldn’t phone. No. You’re sure?
[15174] park. What do you think of that, citizen? The Sluagh na h-Eireann.
[15215] —Put it there, citizen, says Joe. You were and a bloody sight better.
[15219] —Yes, says Bloom. That’s well known. Did you not know that?
[15225] exercise was bad. I declare to my antimacassar if you took up a straw
[15226] from the bloody floor and if you said to Bloom: Look at, Bloom. Do you
[15277] —Talking about violent exercise, says Alf, were you at that
[15297] —True for you, says Joe.
[15302] —Now, don’t you think, Bergan?
[15346] tour, you see. Just a holiday.
[15360] Mr Boylan. You what? The water rate, Mr Boylan. You whatwhat? That’s
[15361] the bucko that’ll organise her, take my tip. ’Twixt me and you
[15383] —God save you, says the citizen.
[15385] —Save you kindly, says J. J. What’ll it be, Ned?
[15391] —Were you round at the court? says Joe.
[15407] —Did you see that bloody lunatic Breen round there? says Alf. U. p:
[15419] —Was it you did it, Alf? says Joe. The truth, the whole truth and
[15420] nothing but the truth, so help you Jimmy Johnson.
[15424] —Whatever statement you make, says Joe, will be taken down in evidence
[15425] against you.
[15430] —Compos your eye! says Alf, laughing. Do you know that he’s balmy?
[15431] Look at his head. Do you know that some mornings he has to get his hat
[15444] —How half and half? says Bloom. Do you mean he...
[15451] —That what’s I mean, says the citizen. A pishogue, if you know what
[15493] saying he’d give a passage to Canada for twenty bob. What? Do you see
[15504] —Poor old sir Frederick, says Alf, you can cod him up to the two eyes.
[15517] children? Ten, did you say?
[15523] dare you, sir, come up before me and ask me to make an order! A poor
[15567] —Because, you see, says Bloom, for an advertisement you must have
[15576] that Keyes, you see.
[15580] —Very kind of you, says Bloom.
[15633] you heard another and blinking facts and the Nelson policy, putting your
[15638] —Their syphilisation, you mean, says the citizen. To hell with
[15647] Egan of Paris. You wouldn’t see a trace of them or their language
[15664] —What’s up with you, says I to Lenehan. You look like a fellow that
[15702] that won’t see, if you know what that means. Where are our missing
[15732] —Europe has its eyes on you, says Lenehan.
[15791] —Hear, hear to that, says John Wyse. What will you have?
[15795] —Half one, Terry, says John Wyse, and a hands up. Terry! Are you
[15812] —I’ll tell you what about it, says the citizen. Hell upon earth it
[15854] wouldn’t it be the same here if you put force against force?
[15856] Didn’t I tell you? As true as I’m drinking this porter if he was at
[15857] his last gasp he’d try to downface you that dying was living.
[15885] —The French! says the citizen. Set of dancing masters! Do you know
[15909] —And what do you think, says Joe, of the holy boys, the priests
[15921] —Will you try another, citizen? says Joe.
[15925] —You? says Joe.
[15927] —Beholden to you, Joe, says I. May your shadow never grow less.
[15937] —But do you know what a nation means? says John Wyse.
[15963] —After you with the push, Joe, says he, taking out his handkerchief to
[15966] —Here you are, citizen, says Joe. Take that in your right hand and
[16011] —Are you talking about the new Jerusalem? says the citizen.
[16017] That’s an almanac picture for you. Mark for a softnosed bullet. Old
[16033] Who’s hindering you? And off he pops like greased lightning.
[16049] Majesty the Queen. Mrs Norman W. Tupper loves officer Taylor. You love
[16058] —The blessing of God and Mary and Patrick on you, says the citizen.
[16065] pasted round the mouth of his cannon? The bible! Did you read that skit
[16111] Congo Free State they must be bad. Did you read that report by a man
[16132] tip. Bet you what you like he has a hundred shillings to five on. He’s
[16139] —There you are, says Terry.
[16170] that’ll tell you all about it, Martin Cunningham.
[16188] —Give you good den, my masters, said he with an obsequious bow.
[16201] —Cry you mercy, gentlemen, he said humbly. An you be the king’s
[16202] messengers (God shield His Majesty!) you shall not want for aught. The
[16211] —What say you, good masters, to a squab pigeon pasty, some collops of
[16268] —O, by God, says Ned, you should have seen Bloom before that son of
[16274] —Do you call that a man? says the citizen.
[16284] month with headache like a totty with her courses. Do you know what
[16285] I’m telling you? It’d be an act of God to take a hold of a fellow
[16297] —Have you time for a brief libation, Martin? says Ned.
[16301] —You, Jack? Crofton? Three half ones, Terry.
[16407] —I was just round at the courthouse, says he, looking for you. I hope
[16414] a jew for you! All for number one. Cute as a shithouse rat. Hundred to
[16432] whatever you call him and him in the middle of them letting on to be all
[16435] —Off with you, says Martin to the jarvey.
[16595] You never saw the like of it in all your born puff. Gob, if he got that

[16818] you would never notice, seven fingers two and a penny. She did it up all
[16844] was for luck and lovers’ meeting if you put those things on inside
[16845] out or if they got untied that he was thinking about you so long as it
[16853] mirror. You are lovely, Gerty, it said. The paly light of evening falls
[16892] her shy and often she wondered why you couldn’t eat something poetical
[16913] you please. The temper of him! O, he was a man already was little Tommy
[16917] —You’re not my sister, naughty Tommy said. It’s my ball.
[16946] Madcap Ciss with her golliwog curls. You had to laugh at her sometimes.
[16947] For instance when she asked you would you have some more Chinese tea and
[16949] her nails with red ink make you split your sides or when she wanted to
[16950] go where you know she said she wanted to run and pay a visit to the Miss
[16951] White. That was just like Cissycums. O, and will you ever forget her
[16986] himself passing along the strand taking a short walk. You never saw him
[17018] oldtime chivalry through her lattice window. You could see there was a

[17111] expressive, but could you trust them? People were so queer. She could
[17217] almost maddening in its sweetness. You would have to travel many a long
[17218] mile before you found a head of hair the like of that. She could almost
[17241] asked her the time and Miss Cissy, as glib as you like, said it was half
[17280] face. It is for you, Gertrude MacDowell, and you know it.
[17439] something not very nice that you could imagine sometimes in the bed. But
[17443] was absolution so long as you didn’t do the other thing before being

[17562] write to me. And I’ll write to you. Now won’t you? Molly and Josie
[17564] Tableau! O, look who it is for the love of God! How are you at all? What
[17565] have you been doing with yourself? Kiss and delighted to, kiss, to
[17566] see you. Picking holes in each other’s appearance. You’re looking
[17568] have you left? Wouldn’t lend each other a pinch of salt.
[17578] wears she’s a flirt. All are. Daresay she felt I. When you feel like
[17579] that you often meet what you feel. Liked me or what? Dress they look at.
[17587] see me in profile. Still, you never know. Pretty girls and ugly men
[17608] Still you have to get rid of it someway. They don’t care. Complimented
[17617] have. Makes you want to sing after. Lacaus esant taratara. Suppose I
[17618] spoke to her. What about? Bad plan however if you don’t know how to
[17619] end the conversation. Ask them a question they ask you another.
[17620] Good idea if you’re stuck. Gain time. But then you’re in a cart.
[17621] Wonderful of course if you say: good evening, and you see she’s on
[17625] arks she called it. It’s so hard to find one who. Aho! If you don’t
[17629] O, her mouth in the dark! And you a married man with a single girl!
[17636] when it’s not what they like. Ask you do you like mushrooms because
[17637] she once knew a gentleman who. Or ask you what someone was going to say
[17658] in Jammet’s wore her veil only to her nose. Would you mind, please,
[17659] telling me the right time? I’ll tell you the right time up a dark
[17684] shaking it, to let the blood flow back when it was red. Who did you
[17689] like the other. Still she was game. Lord, I am wet. Devil you are. Swell
[17707] I will tell you all. Still it was a kind of language between us. It
[17737] Then they trot you out some kind of a nondescript, wouldn’t know
[17759] arranged. Magnetic needle tells you what’s going on in the sun, the
[17760] stars. Little piece of steel iron. When you hold out the fork. Come.
[17762] up and look and suggest and let you see and see more and defy you if
[17763] you’re a man to see that and, like a sneeze coming, legs, look, look
[17764] and if you have any guts in you. Tip. Have to let fly.
[17778] you this to think of me when I’m far away on the pillow. What is it?
[17785] For instance if you go into a cellar where it’s dark. Mysterious thing
[17789] morning, smell them leagues off. Tell you what it is. It’s like a fine
[17790] fine veil or web they have all over the skin, fine like what do you
[17797] or the armpits or under the neck. Because you get it out of all holes
[17800] at each other behind. Good evening. Evening. How do you sniff? Hm. Hm.
[17801] Very well, thank you. Animals go by that. Yes now, look at it that way.
[17802] We’re the same. Some women, instance, warn you off when they have
[17803] their period. Come near. Then get a hogo you could hang your hat on.
[17808] John had on his desk the other day. Breath? What you eat and drink gives
[17812] of forbidden priest. O, father, will you? Let me be the first to. That
[17824] How much do I owe you? Three and nine? Two and nine, sir. Ah. Might stop
[17834] you learn something. See ourselves as others see us. So long as women
[17849] you. Better now of course than long ago. Country roads. Run you through
[17850] the small guts for nothing. Still two types there are you bob against.

[17864] position. Like to be that rock she sat on. O sweet little, you don’t

[17892] I an only child. So it returns. Think you’re escaping and run into
[17902] tree, so blind. Have birds no smell? Metempsychosis. They believed you
[17917] white. Colours depend on the light you see. Stare the sun for example
[17920] the staircase. Colour of brown turf. Say you never see them with three
[17937] ballagh! Out of that, bloody curse to you! Others in vessels, bit of a
[17947] bondage. Something in all those superstitions because when you go out
[17952] Then you have a beautiful calm without a cloud, smooth sea, placid, crew
[17984] masks too. Throwing them up in the air to catch them. I’ll murder you.

[19948] You never seen me in the mantrap with a married highlander, says I. The
[20063] THE MOTORMAN: Hey, shitbreeches, are you doing the hat trick?
[20128] RUDOLPH: Second halfcrown waste money today. I told you not go with
[20129] drunken goy ever. So you catch no money.
[20134] RUDOLPH: What you making down this place? Have you no soul? (With feeble
[20135] vulture talons he feels the silent face of Bloom.) Are you not my son
[20136] Leopold, the grandson of Leopold? Are you not my dear son Leopold who

[20269] that. I hate you.
[20271] BLOOM: I? When? You’re dreaming. I never saw you.
[20273] THE BAWD: Leave the gentleman alone, you cheat. Writing the gentleman
[20275] the strap to you at the bedpost, hussy like you.
[20277] GERTY: (To Bloom.) When you saw all the secrets of my bottom drawer.
[20278] (She paws his sleeve, slobbering.) Dirty married man! I love you for
[20290] MRS BREEN: Mr Bloom! You down here in the haunts of sin! I caught you
[20293] BLOOM: (Hurriedly.) Not so loud my name. Whatever do you think of me?
[20294] Don’t give me away. Walls have ears. How do you do? It’s ages since

[20332] marriage mingling of our different little conjugials. You know I had a

[20337] puts out her hand inquisitively.) What are you hiding behind your back?
[20341] prettiest deb in Dublin. How time flies by! Do you remember, harking
[20347] MRS BREEN: You were the lion of the night with your seriocomic
[20348] recitation and you looked the part. You were always a favourite with the

[20379] BLOOM: When you made your present choice they said it was beauty and
[20380] the beast. I can never forgive you for that. (His clenched fist at his
[20381] brow.) Think what it means. All you meant to me then. (Hoarsely.) Woman,
[20392] eye.) Why didn’t you kiss the spot to make it well? You wanted to.
[20394] BLOOM: (Shocked.) Molly’s best friend! Could you?
[20397] Hnhn. The answer is a lemon. Have you a little present for me there?
[20432] BLOOM: I want to tell you a little secret about how I came to be here.
[20433] But you must never tell. Not even Molly. I have a most particular
[20450] in bandolier and a grey billycock hat.) Do you remember a long long
[20459] fiveseater shanderadan of a waggonette you were in your heyday then and
[20460] you had on that new hat of white velours with a surround of molefur that
[20461] Mrs Hayes advised you to buy because it was marked down to nineteen and
[20462] eleven, a bit of wire and an old rag of velveteen, and I’ll lay you
[20463] what you like she did it on purpose...
[20467] BLOOM: Because it didn’t suit you one quarter as well as the other
[20469] admired on you and you honestly looked just too fetching in it though
[20470] it was a pity to kill it, you cruel naughty creature, little mite of a

[20755] BEAUFOY: (Drawls.) No, you aren’t. Not by a long shot if I know it.
[20769] BEAUFOY: (His lip upcurled, smiles superciliously on the court.) You
[20770] funny ass, you! You’re too beastly awfully weird for words! I don’t
[20771] think you need over excessively disincommodate yourself in that regard.
[20790] BEAUFOY: You low cad! You ought to be ducked in the horsepond, you

[21063] fine fellow? Well, by the living God, you’ll get the surprise of your

[21168] may I speak to you? You know me. That three shillings you can keep. If
[21169] you want a little more...

[22631] connection. Only, you know, sensation. A dry rush.
[22717] STEPHEN: (Over his shoulder to Zoe.) You would have preferred
[22726] FLORRY: (To Stephen.) I’m sure you’re a spoiled priest. Or a monk.
[22796] She taunts him.) Have it now or wait till you get it? (He opens his
[22812] you, whoever you are!
[22820] ZOE: Do as you’re bid. Here!
[22854] THE FAN: (Folding together, rests against her left eardrop.) Have you
[22859] THE FAN: (Folded akimbo against her waist.) Is me her was you dreamed
[22860] before? Was then she him you us since knew? Am all them and the same now
[22868] THE FAN: (Tapping.) We have met. You are mine. It is fate.
[22880] Athos, faithful after death. A dog’s spittle as you probably... (He
[22892] THE FAN: (Points downwards slowly.) You may.
[22897] THE FAN: (Points downwards quickly.) You must.
[22920] THE HOOF: If you bungle, Handy Andy, I’ll kick your football for you.
[22923] dance. Bad luck. Hook in wrong tache of her... person you mentioned.
[22946] forward! Slide left foot one pace back! You will fall. You are falling.
[22967] BELLO: (Laughs loudly.) Holy smoke! You little know what’s in store
[22968] for you. I’m the Tartar to settle your little lot and break you in!
[22969] I’ll bet Kentucky cocktails all round I shame it out of you, old
[22970] son. Cheek me, I dare you. If you do tremble in anticipation of heel
[22982] KITTY: Don’t be too hard on her, Mr Bello. Sure you won’t,
[22985] BELLO: (Coaxingly.) Come, ducky dear, I want a word with you, darling,
[22989] correct you for your own good on a soft safe spot. How’s that tender
[22995] hook, the knout I’ll make you kiss while the flutes play like the
[22996] Nubian slave of old. You’re in for it this time! I’ll make you
[23002] Victualler’s Gazette. Very possibly I shall have you slaughtered and
[23003] skewered in my stables and enjoy a slice of you with crisp crackling
[23005] lemon or currant sauce. It will hurt you. (He twists her arm. Bloom
[23017] you! (He slaps her face.)
[23019] BLOOM: (Whimpers.) You’re after hitting me. I’ll tell...
[23047] BELLO: Ask for that every ten minutes. Beg. Pray for it as you never
[23053] Ho! Off we pop! I’ll nurse you in proper fashion. (He horserides
[23058] FLORRY: (Pulls at Bello.) Let me on him now. You had enough. I asked
[23059] before you.
[23061] ZOE: (Pulling at Florry.) Me. Me. Are you not finished with him yet,
[23073] BELLO: (Stands up.) No more blow hot and cold. What you longed for has
[23074] come to pass. Henceforth you are unmanned and mine in earnest, a thing
[23075] under the yoke. Now for your punishment frock. You will shed your male
[23076] garments, you understand, Ruby Cohen? and don the shot silk luxuriously
[23082] BELLO: (Points to his whores.) As they are now so will you be, wigged,
[23084] measurements will be taken next your skin. You will be laced with cruel
[23092] flimsiness of lace round your bare knees will remind you...
[23104] Mrs Miriam Dandrade sold you from the Shelbourne hotel, eh?
[23108] BELLO: (Guffaws.) Christ Almighty it’s too tickling, this! You were
[23109] a nicelooking Miriam when you clipped off your backgate hairs and
[23124] BELLO: (With wicked glee.) Beautiful! Give us a breather! When you took
[23132] for you. I gave you strict instructions, didn’t I? Do it standing,
[23133] sir! I’ll teach you to behave like a jinkleman! If I catch a trace
[23134] on your swaddles. Aha! By the ass of the Dorans you’ll find I’m a
[23135] martinet. The sins of your past are rising against you. Many. Hundreds.
[23166] many? I give you just three seconds. One! Two! Thr...
[23170] BELLO: (Imperiously.) O, get out, you skunk! Hold your tongue! Speak
[23171] when you’re spoken to.
[23177] BELLO: (Satirically.) By day you will souse and bat our smelling
[23181] ring I thee own. Say, thank you, mistress.
[23183] BLOOM: Thank you, mistress.
[23185] BELLO: You will make the beds, get my tub ready, empty the pisspots in
[23188] champagne. Drink me piping hot. Hop! You will dance attendance or I’ll
[23189] lecture you on your misdeeds, Miss Ruby, and spank your bare bot right
[23190] well, miss, with the hairbrush. You’ll be taught the error of
[23194] lives. (He chuckles.) My boys will be no end charmed to see you so
[23197] have a go at you myself. A man I know on the turf named Charles Alberta
[23203] vulva.) There’s fine depth for you! What, boys? That give you a
[23241] forefinger in mouth.) O, I know what you’re hinting at now!
[23243] BELLO: What else are you good for, an impotent thing like you? (He
[23246] your curly teapot gone to or who docked it on you, cockyolly? Sing,
[23248] a cart. Buy a bucket or sell your pump. (Loudly.) Can you do a man’s
[23256] for you, you muff, if you had that weapon with knobs and lumps and warts
[23257] all over it. He shot his bolt, I can tell you! Foot to foot, knee to
[23261] her guts already! That makes you wild, don’t it? Touches the spot? (He
[23267] BELLO: Would if you could, lame duck. A downpour we want not your
[23273] since you slept horizontal in Sleepy Hollow your night of twenty years.
[23286] BELLO: (Laughs mockingly.) That’s your daughter, you owl, with a
[23293] MILLY: My! It’s Papli! But, O Papli, how old you’ve grown!
[23298] Why not? How many women had you, eh, following them up dark streets,
[23299] flatfoot, exciting them by your smothered grunts, what, you male
[23306] you bought at Wren’s auction. In their horseplay with Moll the romp
[23308] you carried home in the rain for art for art’s sake. They will violate
[23321] BELLO: As a paying guest or a kept man? Too late. You have made your
[23322] secondbest bed and others must lie in it. Your epitaph is written. You
[23323] are down and out and don’t you forget it, old bean.
[23328] BELLO: Die and be damned to you if you have any sense of decency or
[23329] grace about you. I can give you a rare old wine that’ll send you
[23330] skipping to hell and back. Sign a will and leave us any coin you have!
[23331] If you have none see you damn well get it, steal it, rob it! We’ll
[23332] bury you in our shrubbery jakes where you’ll be dead and dirty with
[23336] cesspool. (He explodes in a loud phlegmy laugh.) We’ll manure you, Mr
[23374] THE NYMPH: Mortal! You found me in evil company, highkickers, coster
[23391] BLOOM: You mean Photo Bits?
[23393] THE NYMPH: I do. You bore me away, framed me in oak and tinsel, set me
[23394] above your marriage couch. Unseen, one summer eve, you kissed me in
[23395] four places. And with loving pencil you shaded my eyes, my bosom and my
[23399] immortal, I was glad to look on you, to praise you, a thing of beauty,
[23404] BLOOM: (Quickly.) Yes, yes. You mean that I... Sleep reveals the worst
[23414] BLOOM: You understood them?
[23537] THE NYMPH: (Loftily.) We immortals, as you saw today, have not such
[23541] could you...?
[23601] BLOOM: (Coldly.) You have broken the spell. The last straw. If there
[23602] were only ethereal where would you all be, postulants and novices? Shy
[23610] robe.) Sully my innocence! You are not fit to touch the garment of a
[23611] pure woman. (She clutches again in her robe.) Wait. Satan, you’ll sing
[23618] What do you lack with your barbed wire? Crucifix not thick enough? (He
[23619] clutches her veil.) A holy abbot you want or Brophy, the lame gardener,
[23626] BLOOM: (Calls after her.) As if you didn’t get it on the double
[23627] yourselves. No jerks and multiple mucosities all over you. I tried it.
[23628] Your strength our weakness. What’s our studfee? What will you pay on
[23629] the nail? You fee mendancers on the Riviera, I read. (The fleeing nymph
[23636] BELLA: You’ll know me the next time.
[23645] BELLA: (Contemptuously.) You’re not game, in fact. (Her sowcunt
[23652] BELLA: I know you, canvasser! Dead cod!
[23656] BELLA: (Turns to the piano.) Which of you was playing the dead march
[23667] BLOOM: (Gently.) Give me back that potato, will you?
[23676] God’ll ask you where is that
[23677] You’ll say you don’t know
[23678] God’ll send you down below.
[23687] BELLA: (Frowns.) Here. This isn’t a musical peepshow. And don’t you
[23694] the sow’s ear of the public. Madam, excuse me. If you allow me. (He
[23703] Kitty.) Do you want three girls? It’s ten shillings here.
[23720] ... mind who you’re pinching... are you staying the night or a short
[23721] time?... who did?... you’re a liar, excuse me... the gentleman paid
[23751] BELLA: (Admiringly.) You’re such a slyboots, old cocky. I could kiss
[13747] you.
[23767] BLOOM: (Quietly.) You had better hand over that cash to me to take care
[23770] STEPHEN: (Hands him all his coins.) Be just before you are generous.
[23773] Six. Eleven. I don’t answer for what you may have lost.
[23791] LYNCH: (Watching him.) You would have a better chance of lighting it if
[23792] you held the match nearer.
[23812] BLOOM: Don’t smoke. You ought to eat. Cursed dog I met. (To Zoe.) You
[23829] shake. (To Zoe.) Who taught you palmistry?
[23853] ZOE: What day were you born?
[23862] ZOE: Mount of the moon. You’ll meet with a... (She peers at his hands
[23863] abruptly.) I won’t tell you what’s not good for you. Or do you want
[23909] Haw haw have you the horn?
[23922] LENEHAN: Ho! What do I here behold? Were you brushing the cobwebs off a
[23945] in. I have a little private business with your wife, you understand?
[23947] BLOOM: Thank you, sir. Yes, sir. Madam Tweedy is in her bath, sir.
[23969] BOYLAN: (To Bloom, over his shoulder.) You can apply your eye to the
[23972] BLOOM: Thank you, sir. I will, sir. May I bring two men chums to witness
[23986] the room doing it! Ride a cockhorse. You could hear them in Paris and
[24015] ZOE: Before you’re twice married and once a widower.
[24031] FREDDY: Ah, ma, you’re dragging me along!
[24088] diamonds very amiable costumed. Or do you are fond better what belongs
[24100] STEPHEN: (Mincingly.) I love you, sir darling. Speak you englishman
[24134] wings.) Ho, boy! Are you going to win? Hoop! Pschatt! Stable with those
[24176] You’ll be home the night!
[24269] HOURS: You may touch my.
[24396] STEPHEN: (Horrorstruck.) Lemur, who are you? No. What bogeyman’s trick
[24406] the world. You too. Time will come.
[24409] you, mother. He offended your memory. Cancer did it, not I. Destiny.
[24412] You sang that song to me. Love’s bitter mystery.
[24414] STEPHEN: (Eagerly.) Tell me the word, mother, if you know now. The word
[24417] THE MOTHER: Who saved you the night you jumped into the train at
[24418] Dalkey with Paddy Lee? Who had pity for you when you were sad among the
[24424] THE MOTHER: I pray for you in my other world. Get Dilly to make you that
[24426] you, O, my son, my firstborn, when you lay in my womb.
[24459] STEPHEN: No! No! No! Break my spirit, all of you, if you can! I’ll
[24460] bring you all to heel!
[24493] BELLA: Who pays for the lamp? (She seizes Bloom’s coattail.) Here, you
[24501] for that? Ten shillings. You’re a witness.
[24504] you lifted enough off him? Didn’t he...?
[24515] BLOOM: (Warding off a blow.) To show you how he hit the paper. There’s
[24520] BELLA: Do you want me to call the police?
[24524] a masonic sign.) Know what I mean? Nephew of the vicechancellor. You
[24528] and paying nothing. Are you my commander here or? Where is he? I’ll
[24594] STEPHEN: (With elaborate gestures, breathing deeply and slowly.) You are
[24598] PRIVATE CARR: (To Cissy Caffrey.) Was he insulting you?
[24607] do—you know, and the young man run up behind me. But I’m faithful to
[24620] PRIVATE CARR: (To Cissy.) Was he insulting you while me and him was
[24628] STEPHEN: (To Private Compton.) I don’t know your name but you are
[24647] Dolly. Dream of the girl you left behind and she will dream of you.
[24669] BIDDY THE CLAP: Did you hear what the professor said? He’s a professor
[24681] you’re saying about my king?
[24706] point. You die for your country. Suppose. (He places his arm on Private
[24707] Carr’s sleeve.) Not that I wish it for you. But I say: Let my country
[24749] BLOOM: (To Stephen.) Come home. You’ll get into trouble.
[24807] PRIVATE CARR: Here. What are you saying about my king?
[24824] STEPHEN: Aha! I know you, gammer! Hamlet, revenge! The old sow that eats
[24830] (She wails.) You met with poor old Ireland and how does she stand?
[24832] STEPHEN: How do I stand you? The hat trick! Where’s the third person
[24854] BLOOM: (To the redcoats.) We fought for you in South Africa, Irish
[24893] BLOOM: (Shakes Cissy Caffrey’s shoulders.) Speak, you! Are you struck
[24894] dumb? You are the link between nations and generations. Speak, woman,
[24898] you? Amn’t I your girl? Cissy’s your girl. (She cries.) Police!
[24981] him, acushla. At 8.35 a.m. you will be in heaven and Ireland will be
[24984] BLOOM: (Runs to Lynch.) Can’t you get him away?
[24987] Get him away, you. He won’t listen to me.
[24998] CISSY CAFFREY: (Pulling Private Carr.) Come on, you’re boosed. He
[25002] BLOOM: (Over Stephen’s shoulder.) Yes, go. You see he’s incapable.
[25045] SECOND WATCH: Who are you? Do you know him?
[25049] BLOOM: (Angrily.) You hit him without provocation. I’m a witness.
[25056] Bennett’ll shove you in the lockup.
[25063] BLOOM: (Peering over the crowd.) I just see a car there. If you give me
[25078] Twenty to one. Do you follow me?
[25080] FIRST WATCH: (Turns to the crowd.) Here, what are you all gaping at?
[25093] tooraloom tooraloom. What, eh, do you follow me?
[25103] BLOOM: (Shakes hands with both of the watch in turn.) Thank you very
[25104] much, gentlemen. Thank you. (He mumbles confidentially.) We don’t
[25105] want any scandal, you understand. Father is a wellknown highly respected
[25106] citizen. Just a little wild oats, you understand.
[25124] BLOOM: (Blows.) Providential you came on the scene. You have a car?...
[25137] in the house, what, eh, do you follow me? Hah, hah, hah!
[25140] visiting an old friend of mine there, Virag, you don’t know him (poor
[25195] is no answer.) The name if you call. Somnambulist. (He bends again

16. Eumaeus

[25260] (Stephen’s) mind was not exactly what you would call wandering but a
[25328] habits under the influence of liquor unless you knew a little jiujitsu
[25330] administer a nasty kick if you didn’t look out. Highly providential
[25348] anything. You frittered away your time, he very sensibly maintained, and
[25351] the bargain and the greatest danger of all was who you got drunk with
[25378] —Someone saluted you, Mr Bloom said.
[25396] swoop at a moment’s notice, your money or your life, leaving you there
[25428] —I wouldn’t ask you only, pursued he, on my solemn oath and God
[25433] it. You may mention my name.
[25445] M’Conachie told him you got a decent enough do in the Brazen Head
[25479] —Thanks, Corley answered, you’re a gentleman. I’ll pay you back
[25480] one time. Who’s that with you? I saw him a few times in the Bleeding
[25481] Horse in Camden street with Boylan, the billsticker. You might put in a
[25484] weeks, man. God, you’ve to book ahead, man, you’d think it was for
[25521] —He is down on his luck. He asked me to ask you to ask somebody named
[25530] —Everybody gets their own ration of luck, they say. Now you mention it
[25532] did you part with, he queried, if I am not too inquisitive?
[25541] a smile, will you sleep yourself? Walking to Sandycove is out of the
[25542] question. And even supposing you did you won’t get in after what
[25544] don’t mean to presume to dictate to you in the slightest degree but
[25545] why did you leave your father’s house?
[25559] pride, quite legitimate, out of you. You could go back perhaps, he
[25585] course you didn’t notice as much as I did. But it wouldn’t occasion
[25646] to break the ice, it occurs to me you ought to sample something in the
[25661] —A beautiful language. I mean for singing purposes. Why do you not
[25707] —You know Simon Dedalus? he asked at length.
[25785] his better half, wrecked in his affections. You little expected me
[25799] —You don’t happen to have such a thing as a spare chaw about you?
[25805] —Thank you, the sailor said.
[25817] —You must have seen a fair share of the world, the keeper remarked,
[25828] —You seen queer sights, don’t be talking, put in a jarvey.
[25883] a landlubber except you call going to Holyhead which was his longest.
[25905] post you the ticket. No, something top notch, an all star Irish caste,
[26012] —Have you seen the rock of Gibraltar? Mr Bloom inquired.
[26017] —Ah, you’ve touched there too, Mr Bloom said, Europa point, thinking
[26022] —What year would that be about? Mr B interrogated. Can you recall the
[26141] lane who knew the lady in the brown costume does be with you (Mrs B.)
[26182] —You as a good catholic, he observed, talking of body and soul,
[26183] believe in the soul. Or do you mean the intelligence, the brainpower as
[26187] have such inventions as X rays, for instance. Do you?
[26205] grant you, to concede a point, you do knock across a simple soul once in
[26211] colour to say you believe in the existence of a supernatural God.
[26224] sectarian side of the business, I beg to differ with you in toto there.
[26225] My belief is, to tell you the candid truth, that those bits were genuine
[26228] Hamlet and Bacon, as, you who know your Shakespeare infinitely better
[26229] than I, of course I needn’t tell you. Can’t you drink that coffee,
[26266] mental or manual. You ought to eat more solid food. You would feel a
[26279] of knives remarked to his confidante sotto voce. Do you think they are
[26310] —Mind you, I’m not saying that it’s all a pure invention, he
[26312] Giants, though that is rather a far cry, you see once in a way, Marcella
[26315] straighten their legs if you paid them because the muscles here, you
[26317] sinews or whatever you like to call them behind the right knee, were
[26340] hands and give you your quietus doublequick with those poignards they
[26346] accounts for character. That’s why I asked you if you wrote your
[26363] proportions of hips, bosom. You simply don’t knock against those kind
[26365] way you find but what I’m talking about is the female form. Besides
[26367] a woman’s natural beauty, no matter what you say. Rumpled stockings,
[26480] became general and all agreed that that was a fact. You could grow
[26482] Everard down there in Navan growing tobacco. Where would you find
[26514] peasant. He’s the backbone of our empire. You know Jem Mullins?
[26546] goby unless you were a blithering idiot altogether and refuse to have
[26587] He turned a long you are wrong gaze on Stephen of timorous dark pride
[26595] —Of course, Mr B. proceeded to stipulate, you must look at both sides
[26614] —You just took the words out of my mouth, he said. A hocuspocus of
[26615] conflicting evidence that candidly you couldn’t remotely...
[26628] would you be surprised to learn, proves up to the hilt Spain decayed
[26633] indulge in any because you know the standard works on the subject and
[26634] then orthodox as you are. But in the economic, not touching religion,
[26635] domain the priest spells poverty. Spain again, you saw in the war,
[26640] with dramatic force, as good an Irishman as that rude person I told you
[26648] Mater, vita bene. Where you can live well, the sense is, if you work.
[26656] didn’t say the words the voice he heard said, if you work.
[26668] I know of you, after all the money expended on your education you are
[26669] entitled to recoup yourself and command your price. You have every bit
[26671] peasant has. What? You both belong to Ireland, the brain and the brawn.
[26674] —You suspect, Stephen retorted with a sort of a half laugh, that I
[26685] latter portion. What was it you...?
[26688] coffee or whatever you like to call it none too politely, adding:
[26833] One morning you would open the paper, the cabman affirmed, and read:
[26869] mudslinging. And the identical same with murderers. You had to come
[26870] back. That haunting sense kind of drew you. To show the understudy in
[26874] silk hat when it was knocked off and he said Thank you, excited as he
[26877] bone. Still as regards return. You were a lucky dog if they didn’t
[26878] set the terrier at you directly you got back. Then a lot of shillyshally
[26880] one, you came up against the man in possession and had to produce your
[26948] kind of dream. And then coming back was the worst thing you ever did
[26949] because it went without saying you would feel out of place as things
[26964] other rather muddled about farewell and adieu to you Spanish onions and
[26977] —Do you consider, by the by, he said, thoughtfully selecting a faded
[27037] the bunch though you wouldn’t think he had it in him yet you would.
[27038] Besides he said the picture was handsome which, say what you like, it
[27085] aplomb, saying: Thank you, sir, though in a very different tone of voice
[27140] —At what o’clock did you dine? he questioned of the slim form and
[27146] Friday. Ah, you mean it’s after twelve!
[27191] you call jump at the idea, if approached, and what mostly worried him
[27222] while prudently pocketing her photo, as it’s rather stuffy here you
[27224] in the vicinity. You can’t drink that stuff. Do you like cocoa? Wait.
[27262] —Are you bad in the eyes? the sympathetic personage like the townclerk
[27267] portholes as you might well describe them as, I uses goggles reading.
[27316] —It will (the air) do you good, Bloom said, meaning also the walk, in
[27317] a moment. The only thing is to walk then you’ll feel a different man.
[27397] wisely reflected, you could scarcely be prepared for every emergency
[27450] little thing like that could militate against you. It was in fact only a
[27491] pretext when not present, deprecate him, or whatever you like to call it
[27515] man in the sweeper car or you might as well call it in the sleeper
