does be visiting there? Was the young master saying anything? Peeping Tom through the keyhole. Decoy duck. Hotblooded young student fooling round her fat arms ironing.



— Are those yours, Mary?



— I don't wear such things... Stop or I'll tell the missus on you. Out half the night.

in episode 15 Bloom will hallucinate Mary Driscoll, scullerymaid's accusations: "He surprised me in the rere of the premises, Your honour, when the missus was out shopping one morning with a request for a safety pin. He held me and I was discoloured in four places as a result. And he interfered twict with my clothing."
and in 18 Molly will think "so long as I dont have the two of them under my nose all the time like that slut that Mary we had in Ontario Terrace padding out her false bottom to excite him"

Ontario Terrace dates this to 1897



— There are great times coming, Mary. Wait till you see.

?


— Ah, get along with your great times coming.

Barmaids too. Tobacco shopgirls.



James Stephens' idea was the best. He knew them. Circles of ten so that a fellow couldn't round on more than his own ring. Sinn Fein. Back out you get the knife. Hidden hand. Stay in, the firing squad. Turnkey's daughter got him out of Richmond, off from Lusk. Putting up in the Buckingham Palace hotel under their very noses. Garibaldi.

You must have a certain fascination: Parnell. Arthur Griffith is a squareheaded fellow but he has no go in him for the mob. Or gas about our lovely land. Gammon and spinach. Dublin Bakery Company's tearoom. Debating societies. That republicanism is the best form of government. That the language question should take precedence of the economic question. Have your daughters inveigling them to your house. Stuff them up with meat and drink. Michaelmas goose. Here's a good lump of thyme seasoning under the apron for you. Have another quart of goosegrease before it gets too cold. Halffed enthusiasts. Penny roll and a walk with the band. No grace for the carver. Thought that the other chap pays best sauce in the world. Make themselves thoroughly at home. Show us over those apricots, meaning peaches. The not far distant day. Home Rule sun rising up in the northwest.


which tearoom???


p55 "a homerule sun rising up in the northwest from the laneway behind the bank of Ireland"


His smile faded as he walked, a heavy cloud hiding the sun slowly, shadowing Trinity's surly front. Trams passed one another, ingoing, outgoing, clanging. Useless words. Things go on same, day after day: squads of police marching out, back: trams in, out. Those two loonies mooching about. Dignam carted off. Mina Purefoy swollen belly on a bed groaning to have a child tugged out of her. One born every second somewhere. Other dying every second. Since I fed the birds five minutes. Three hundred kicked the bucket. Other three hundred born, washing the blood off, all are washed in the blood of the lamb, bawling maaaaaa.

cf p58-59 cloud
he's entering Grafton street
"two loonies" Breen and Farrell?
cf p97 "Thousands every hour" closer to 2/sec
"maaaaaa"
Technic: Peristaltic prose



Cityful passing away, other cityful coming, passing away too: other coming on, passing on. Houses, lines of houses, streets, miles of pavements,

  1. i'm a french, reading Ulysses (with a french version at hand, and frequently searching for notes on internet) -
    in my Penguin edition, i have "shove us over those apricots" - but i see that many (MANY) quotes on the net (including yours) have "show us over those apricots" - yet, many have "shove", and i think it must be correct, for the sake of "consonance" between "shove" and "over" (that's the kind of tricks JJ uses all the time, isn't it ?) -
    what do you think ? (may i ask where you took "show us over those apricots" from ? - was it on the net ?...)
    are you still interested in JJ ?...
