Ulysses
heard in the hawthorn valley. Taking my motives he twined
and turned them. All most too new call is lost in all. Echo.
How sweet the answer. How is that done? All lost now.
Mournful he whistled. Fall, surrender, lost.
Bloom bent leopold ear, turning a fringe of doyley down
under the vase. Order. Yes, I remember. Lovely air. In sleep
she went to him. Innocence in the moon. Brave. Don’t know
their danger. Still hold her back. Call name. Touch water.
Jingle jaunty. Too late. She longed to go. That’s why. Wom-
an. As easy stop the sea. Yes: all is lost.
—A beautiful air, said Bloom lost Leopold. I know it
well.
Never in all his life had Richie Goulding.
He knows it well too. Or he feels. Still harping on his
daughter. Wise child that knows her father, Dedalus said.
Me?
Bloom askance over liverless saw. Face of the all is lost.
Rollicking Richie once. Jokes old stale now. Wagging his
ear. Napkinring in his eye. Now begging letters he sends his
son with. Crosseyed Walter sir I did sir. Wouldn’t trouble
only I was expecting some money. Apologise.
Piano again. Sounds better than last time I heard. Tuned
probably. Stopped again.
Dollard and Cowley still urged the lingering singer out
with it.
—With it, Simon.
—It, Simon.
—Ladies and gentlemen, I am most deeply obliged by
your kind solicitations.
