— Yes, sir.

(how often does Bloom drink wine there with lunch?)


Like a few olives too if they had them. Italian I prefer. Good glass of burgundy: take away that. Lubricate. A nice salad, cool as a cucumber. Tom Kernan can dress. Puts gusto into it. Pure olive oil. Milly served me that cutlet with a sprig of parsley. Take one Spanish onion. God made food, the devil the cooks. Devilled crab.



— Wife well?



— Quite well, thanks... A cheese sandwich, then. Gorgonzola, have you?

— Yes, sir.


Nosey Flynn sipped his grog.


— Doing any singing those times?



Look at his mouth. Could whistle in his own ear. Flap ears to match. Music. Knows as much about it as my coachman. Still better tell him. Does no harm. Free ad.



— She's engaged for a big tour end of this month. You may have heard perhaps.



— No. O, that's the style. Who's getting it up?



The curate served.



— How much is that?



— Seven d, sir... Thank you, sir.

pronounced 'pence'?

Mr Bloom cut his sandwich into slender strips. Mr MacTrigger. Easier than the dreamy creamy stuff. His five hundred wives. Had the time of their lives.



— Mustard, sir?



— Thank you.



He studded under each lifted strip yellow blobs. Their lives. I have it. It grew bigger and bigger and bigger.



— Getting it up? he said. Well, it's like a company idea, you see. Part shares and part profits.



— Ay, now I remember, Nosey Flynn said, putting his hand in his pocket to scratch his groin. Who is this was telling me? Isn't Blazes Boylan mixed up in it?



A warm shock of air heat of mustard hanched on Mr Bloom's heart. He raised his eyes and met the stare of a bilious clock. Two. Pub clock five minutes fast. Time going on. Hands moving. Two. Not yet.

the clock expresses bad temper


His midriff yearned then upward, sank within him, yearned more longly, longingly.



Wine.

(Bloom nudges himself to drink, to soothe his mood)
