015:029,00['  ]| <\The Manuscript begins here\> 
015:029,01['  ]| ~~ anyone spoke to$4$ him mingled a too polite disbelief with  
015:029,02['  ]| its expectancy.  His coarse brownish hair was combed  
015:029,03['  ]| high off his forehead but there was a little order in$4$ its arrangement.   
015:029,04['  ]| A girl might or might not have called him  
015:029,05['  ]| handsome:  the face was regular in$4$ feature and its pose was  
015:029,06['  ]| almost softened into beauty by$4$ a small  
015:029,07['  ]| feminine mouth.  In$4$ a general survey of the face the  
015:029,08['  ]| eyes were not prominent:  they were small light blue eyes  
015:029,09['  ]| which$6#1$ checked advances.  They were quite fresh and fearless  
015:029,10['  ]| but in$4$ spite of this the face was to$4$ a certain extent the face  
015:029,11['  ]| of a debauchee.  
015:029,12['  ]| The president of the college was a sequestrated person who$6#1$  
015:029,13['  ]| took the chairs at reunions and inaugural meetings of  
015:029,14['  ]| societies.  His visible lieutenants were a dean and a bursar.   
015:029,15[XB ]| The bursar, 
015:029,15['  ]| Stephen thought, 
015:029,15[XB ]| fitted his title:  a heavy, florid  
015:029,16[XB ]| man with a black-grey cap of hair.  
015:029,16['  ]| He performed his  
015:029,17['  ]| duties with great unction and was often to$9$ be seen looming  
015:029,18['  ]| in$4$ the hall watching the coming and going of the students.   
015:029,19['  ]| He insisted on$4$ punctuality:  a minute or so$5#1$ late once or twice  
015:029,20['  ]| ~~ he would not mind that$6#2$ so$5#1$ much; he would clap his hands  
015:029,21['  ]| and make some cheery reproof.  But what made him severe  
015:029,22['  ]| was a few minutes lost every day:  it disturbed the proper  
015:029,23['  ]| working of the classes.  Stephen was nearly always more than  
015:029,24['  ]| a quarter of an hour late and when he arrived the bursar  
015:029,25['  ]| had usually gone back to$4$ his office.  One morning, however, 
015:029,26['  ]| he arrived at the school earlier than usual.  Walking up$4$ the  
015:029,27['  ]| steps before him was a fat student, a very hard-working, 
015:029,28['  ]| timorous young man with a bread and jam complexion.   
015:029,29['  ]| The bursar was standing in$4$ the hall with his arms  
015:029,30['  ]| folded across his chest and when he caught sight of the  
015:029,31['  ]| fat young man he looked significantly at the clock.  It was  
015:029,32['  ]| eight minutes past eleven.   
015:030,01[E  ]| ~~ Now then, Moloney, you know this will$1$ not do.  Eight  
015:030,02[E  ]| minutes late!  Disturbing your class like$4$ that$6#2$ ~~ we can not have  
015:030,03[E  ]| that$6#2$, you know.  Must be in$4$ sharp for$4$ lecture every morning  
015:030,04[E  ]| in$4$ future.  
015:030,05['  ]| The jam overspread the bread in$4$ Moloney's face as he  
015:030,06['  ]| stumbled over some excuses about a clock being wrong and  
015:030,07['  ]| then scurried upstairs to$4$ his class.  Stephen delayed a little  
015:030,08['  ]| time hanging up$5$ his overcoat while the large priest  
015:030,09['  ]| eyed him solemnly.  Then he turned his head quietly towards  
015:030,10['  ]| the bursar and said 
015:030,11[B  ]| ~~ Fine morning, sir.  
015:030,12['  ]| The bursar at once clapped his hands and rubbed them  
015:030,13['  ]| together and clapped them together again.  The beauty of  
015:030,14['  ]| the morning and the appositeness of the remark both struck  
015:030,15['  ]| him at the same time and he answered cheerily: 
015:030,16[E  ]| ~~ Beautiful!  Fine bracing morning now! and he fell to$5$  
015:030,17[E  ]| rubbing his hands again.  
015:030,18['  ]| One morning Stephen arrived three quarters of an  
015:030,19['  ]| hour late and he thought it his decenter plan to$9$ wait till the  
015:030,20['  ]| French lecture should begin.  As he was leaning over the  
015:030,21['  ]| banisters, waiting for$4$ the twelve o'clock bell to$9$ ring a young  
015:030,22['  ]| man began to$9$ ascend the winding-stairs slowly.  At a few  
015:030,23['  ]| steps from the landing he halted and turned a square rustic  
015:030,24['  ]| face towards Stephen.  
015:030,25[F  ]| ~~ Is this the way to$4$ the Matriculation class, if you please, 
015:030,26['  ]| he asked in$4$ a brogue accenting the first syllable of Matriculation.   
015:030,27['  ]|  
015:030,28['  ]| Stephen directed him and the two young men began to$9$  
015:030,29['  ]| talk.  The new student was named Madden and came from  
015:030,30['  ]| the county of Limerick.  His manner without being exactly  
015:030,31['  ]| diffident was a little scared and he seemed grateful for$4$  
015:030,32['  ]| Stephen's attentions.  After the French lecture the two walked  
015:030,33['  ]| across the green together and Stephen brought the newcomer  
015:030,34['  ]| into the National*Library.  Madden took off his hat at the  
015:030,35['  ]| turnstile and as he leaned on$4$ the counter to$9$ fill up$5$ the docket  
015:030,36['  ]| for$4$ his book Stephen remarked the peasant strength of his jaws.   
015:031,01['  ]| The dean of the college was professor of English, Father*Butt.   
015:031,02['  ]| He was reputed the most able man in$4$ the college:  he  
015:031,03['  ]| was a philosopher and a scholar.   He read a series of papers  
015:031,04['  ]| at a total abstinence club to$9$ prove that$3$ Shakespeare was a  
015:031,05['  ]| Roman*Catholic:  he had also written against another Jesuit  
015:031,06['  ]| father who$6#1$ had very late in$4$ life been converted to$4$ the  
015:031,07['  ]| Baconian theory of the authorship of the plays.  Father*Butt  
015:031,08['  ]| had always his hands full of papers and his soutane very  
015:031,09['  ]| soiled with chalk.  He was an elderly greyhound of a man  
015:031,10['  ]| and his vocal ligaments, like$4$ his garb, seemed to$9$ be coated  
015:031,11['  ]| with chalk.  
015:031,11[X  ]| He had a plausible manner with everyone and  
015:031,12[X  ]| was particularly 
015:031,00['  ]| <\Two pages missing\> 
015:031,13['  ]| of verse are the first conditions which$6#1$ the words must submit  
015:031,14['  ]| to$4$, the rhythm is the esthetic result of the senses, values and  
015:031,15['  ]| relations of the words thus conditioned.  The beauty of verse  
015:031,16['  ]| consisted as much in$4$ the concealment as in$4$ the revelation of  
015:031,17['  ]| construction but it certainly could not proceed from only  
015:031,18['  ]| one of these.  For$4$ this reason he found Father*Butt's reading  
015:031,19['  ]| of verse and a schoolgirl's accurate reading of verse intolerable.  
015:031,20[XB ]| Verse to$9$ be read according to$4$ its rhythm should be  
015:031,21[XB ]| read according to$4$ the stresses; that$6#2$ is, neither strictly according  
015:031,22[XB ]| to$4$ the feet nor yet with complete disregard of them.  
015:031,22['  ]| All  
015:031,23['  ]| this theory he set himself to$9$ explain to$4$ Maurice and Maurice, 
015:031,24['  ]| when he had understood the meanings of the terms and had  
015:031,25['  ]| put these meanings carefully together, agreed that$3$ Stephen's  
015:031,26['  ]| theory was the right one.  There was only one possible way of  
015:031,27['  ]| rendering the first quatrain of Byron's poem: 
015:031,28[Z  ]| \My da=ys are in$4$ the ye=llow le=af\ 
015:031,29[Z  ]| \The flowers and fru=its of lo=ve are go=ne\ 
015:031,30[Z  ]| \The wo=rm, the ca=nker and the gri=ef\ 
015:031,31[Z  ]| \Are mi=ne alone.\ 
015:031,32['  ]| The two brothers tried this theory on$4$ all the verse they could  
015:031,33['  ]| remember and it yielded wonderful results.  Soon Stephen  
015:032,01['  ]| began to$9$ explore the language for$4$ himself and to$9$ choose, and  
015:032,02['  ]| thereby rescue once for$4$ all, the words and phrases most amenable  
015:032,03['  ]| to$4$ his theory.  He became a poet with malice aforethought.  
015:032,04['  ]|  
015:032,05['  ]| He was at once captivated by$4$ the seeming eccentricities  
015:032,06['  ]| of the prose of Freeman and William Morris.  He read them  
015:032,07['  ]| as one would read a thesaurus and made a garner of  
015:032,08['  ]| words.  He read Skeat's Etymological Dictionary by$4$ the 
015:032,09['  ]| hour and his mind, which$6#1$ had from the first been only too  
015:032,10['  ]| submissive to$4$ the infant sense of wonder, was often hypnotised  
015:032,11['  ]| by$4$ the most commonplace conversation.  People seemed to$4$  
015:032,12['  ]| him strangely ignorant of the value of the words they used  
015:032,13['  ]| so$5#1$ glibly.  And pace by$4$ pace as this indignity of life forced  
015:032,14['  ]| itself upon$4$ him he became enamoured of an idealising, a  
015:032,15['  ]| more veritably human tradition.  The phenomenon seemed  
015:032,16['  ]| to$4$ him a grave one and he began to$9$ see that$3$ people had  
015:032,17['  ]| leagued themselves together in$4$ a conspiracy of ignobility and  
015:032,18['  ]| that$3$ Destiny had scornfully reduced her prices for$4$ them.  He  
015:032,19['  ]| desired no$2$ such reduction for$4$ himself and preferred to$9$ serve  
015:032,20['  ]| her on$4$ the ancient terms.  
015:032,21['  ]| There was a special class for$4$ English composition and it  
015:032,22['  ]| was in$4$ this class that$6#1$ Stephen first made his name.  The  
015:032,23['  ]| english essay was for$4$ him the one serious work of the week.   
015:032,24['  ]| His essay was usually very long and the professor, who$6#1$ was a  
015:032,25['  ]| leader-writer on$4$ the \Freeman's*Journal\, always kept it for$4$ the  
015:032,26['  ]| last.  Stephen's style of writing, though it was over  
015:032,27['  ]| affectionate toward the antique and even the obsolete and  
015:032,28['  ]| too easily rhetorical, was remarkable for$4$ a certain crude  
015:032,29['  ]| originality of expression.  He gave himself no$2$ great trouble  
015:032,30['  ]| to$9$ sustain the boldnesses which$6#1$ were expressed or implied in$4$  
015:032,31['  ]| his essays.  He threw them out as sudden defence-works while  
015:032,32['  ]| he was busy constructing the enigma of a manner.  For$3$ the  
015:032,33['  ]| youth had been apprised of another crisis and he wished  
015:032,34['  ]| to$9$ make ready for$4$ the shock of it.  On$4$ account of such  
015:032,35['  ]| mano*euvres he came to$9$ be regarded as a very unequilibrated  
015:032,36['  ]| young man who$6#1$ took more interest than young men  
015:033,01['  ]| usually take in$4$ theories which$6#1$ might be permitted as pastimes.   
015:033,02['  ]| Father*Butt, to$4$ whom the emergence of these unusual qualities  
015:033,03['  ]| had been duly reported, spoke one day to$4$ Stephen with  
015:033,04['  ]| the purpose of ""sounding"" him.  Father*Butt expressed a great 
015:033,05['  ]| admiration for$4$ Stephen's essays 
015:033,05[YG ]| all of which$6#1$, 
015:033,05['  ]| he said, 
015:033,05[YG ]| the  
015:033,06[YG ]| professor of English composition had shown him.  
015:033,06['  ]| He encouraged  
015:033,07['  ]| the youth and suggested 
015:033,07[YG ]| that$3$ in$4$ a short time perhaps  
015:033,08[YG ]| he might contribute something to$4$ one of the Dublin  
015:033,09[YG ]| papers or magazines.  
015:033,09['  ]| Stephen found this encouragement  
015:033,10['  ]| kindly meant but mistaken and he launched forth into a  
015:033,11['  ]| copious explanation of his theories.  Father*Butt listened 
015:033,12['  ]| and, even more readily than Maurice had done, 
015:033,13['  ]| agreed with them all.  Stephen laid down his doctrine very  
015:033,14['  ]| positively and insisted on$4$ the importance of what he called  
015:033,15['  ]| the literary tradition.  
015:033,15[B  ]| Words, 
015:033,15['  ]| he said, 
015:033,15[B  ]| have a certain value  
015:033,16[B  ]| in$4$ the literary tradition and a certain value in$4$ the market-place  
015:033,17[B  ]| ~~ a debased value.  Words are simply receptacles  
015:033,18[B  ]| for$4$ human thought:  in$4$ the literary tradition they receive  
015:033,19[B  ]| more valuable thoughts than they receive in$4$ the market-place.   
015:033,20['  ]| Father*Butt listened to$4$ all this, rubbing his chalky  
015:033,21['  ]| hand often over his chin and nodding his head and said  
015:033,22['  ]| that$3$ 
015:033,22[YG ]| Stephen evidently understood the importance of tradition.   
015:033,23['  ]| Stephen quoted a phrase from Newman to$9$ illustrate  
015:033,24['  ]| his theory.  
015:033,25[B  ]| ~~ In$4$ that$6#2$ sentence of Newman's, 
015:033,25['  ]| he said, 
015:033,25[B  ]| the word is used  
015:033,26[B  ]| according to$4$ the literary tradition:  it has there its full value.   
015:033,27[B  ]| In$4$ ordinary use, that$6#2$ is, in$4$ the market-place, it has a different  
015:033,28[B  ]| value altogether, a debased value.  
015:033,28[Z  ]| ""I hope I am not detaining  
015:033,29[Z  ]| you."" 
015:033,30[G  ]| ~~ Not at all, not at all! 
015:033,31[B  ]| ~~ No$7$, no$7$. ~~ 
015:033,32[G  ]| ~~ Yes, yes, Mr*Daedalus, I see ~~ I quite see your point  
015:033,33[G  ]| ~~ detain ~~ 
015:033,34['  ]| The very morning after this Father*Butt returned Stephen's  
015:033,35['  ]| monologue in$4$ kind.  It was a raw nipping morning and when  
015:033,36['  ]| Stephen, who$6#1$ had arrived too late for$4$ the Latin lecture, 
015:034,01['  ]| strolled into the Physics Theatre he discovered Father*Butt  
015:034,02['  ]| kneeling on$4$ the hearthstone engaged in$4$ lighting a small fire  
015:034,03['  ]| in$4$ the grate.  He was making neat wisps of paper and  
015:034,04['  ]| carefully disposing them among the coals and sticks.  All the  
015:034,05['  ]| while he kept up$5$ a little patter explaining his operations and  
015:034,06['  ]| at a crisis he produced from the most remote pockets of his  
015:034,07['  ]| chalkey soutane three dirty candle-butts.  These he thrust  
015:034,08['  ]| in$4$ different openings and then looked up$5$ at Stephen with an  
015:034,09['  ]| air of triumph.  He set a match to$4$ a few projecting pieces of  
015:034,10['  ]| paper and in$4$ a few minutes the coals had caught.   
015:034,11[G  ]| ~~ There is an art, Mr*Daedalus, in$4$ lighting a fire.  
015:034,12[B  ]| ~~ So$5#2$ I see, sir.  A very useful art.   
015:034,13[G  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is it:  a useful art.  We have the useful arts and we  
015:034,14[G  ]| have the liberal arts.  
015:034,15['  ]| Father*Butt after this statement got up$5$ from the hearthstone  
015:034,16['  ]| and went away about some other business leaving  
015:034,17['  ]| Stephen to$9$ watch the kindling fire and Stephen brooded  
015:034,18['  ]| upon$4$ the fast melting candle-butts and on$4$ the reproach of the  
015:034,19['  ]| priest's manner till it was time for$4$ the Physics lecture to$9$ begin.   
015:034,20[XX ]| The problem could not be solved out of hand but the  
015:034,21[XX ]| artistic part of it at least presented no$2$ difficulties.  
015:034,21['  ]| In$4$ reading  
015:034,22['  ]| through \Twelfth*Night\ for$4$ the class Father*Butt skipped the  
015:034,23['  ]| two songs of the clown without a word and when Stephen, 
015:034,24['  ]| determined on$4$ forcing them on$4$ his attention, asked very  
015:034,25['  ]| gravely 
015:034,25[YB ]| whether they were to$9$ be learned by$4$ heart or not  
015:034,26['  ]| Father*Butt said 
015:034,26[YG ]| it was improbable such a question would be  
015:034,27[YG ]| on$4$ the paper: 
015:034,28[G  ]| ~~ The clown sings these songs for$4$ the duke.  It was a custom  
015:034,29[G  ]| at that$6#2$ time for$4$ noblemen to$9$ have clowns to$9$ sing to$4$ them  
015:034,30[G  ]| ~~ for$4$ amusement.  
015:034,31['  ]| He took \Othello\ more seriously and made the class take a  
015:034,32['  ]| note of the moral of the play:  an object lesson in$4$ the passion  
015:034,33['  ]| of jealousy.  
015:034,33[G  ]| Shakespeare, 
015:034,33['  ]| he said, 
015:034,33[G  ]| had sounded the depths  
015:034,34[G  ]| of human nature:  his plays show us men and women under  
015:034,35[G  ]| the influence of various passions and they show us the moral  
015:034,36[G  ]| result of these passions.  We see the conflict of these human  
015:035,01[G  ]| passions and our own passions are purified by$4$ the spectacle.   
015:035,02[G  ]| The dramas of Shakespeare have a distinct moral force and  
015:035,03[G  ]| \Othello\ is one of the greatest of tragedies.  
015:035,03['  ]| Stephen trained  
015:035,04['  ]| himself to$9$ hear all this out without moving hand or foot but  
015:035,05['  ]| at the same time he was amused to$9$ learn that$3$ the president  
015:035,06['  ]| had refused to$9$ allow two of the boarders to$9$ go to$4$ a performance  
015:035,07['  ]| of \Othello\ at the Gaiety*Theatre on$4$ the ground that$3$  
015:035,08['  ]| there were many coarse expressions in$4$ the play.   
015:035,09['  ]| The monster in$4$ Stephen had lately taken to$4$ misbehaving  
015:035,10['  ]| himself and on$4$ the least provocation was ready for$4$ bloodshed.   
015:035,11['  ]| Almost every incident of the day was a goad for$4$ him and the  
015:035,12['  ]| intellect had great trouble keeping him within bounds.  But  
015:035,13['  ]| the episode of religious fervour which$6#1$ was fast becoming a  
015:035,14['  ]| memory had resulted in$4$ a certain outward self-control which$6#1$  
015:035,15['  ]| was now found to$9$ be very useful.  Besides this Stephen was  
015:035,16['  ]| quick enough to$9$ see that$3$ he must disentangle his affairs in$4$  
015:035,17['  ]| secrecy and reserve had ever been a light penance for$4$ him.   
015:035,18['  ]| His reluctance to$9$ debate scandal, to$9$ seem impolitely curious  
015:035,19['  ]| of others, aided him in$4$ his real indictment and was not without  
015:035,20['  ]| a satisfactory flavour of the heroic.  Already while that$6#2$  
015:035,21['  ]| fever-fit of holiness lay upon$4$ him he had encountered but  
015:035,22['  ]| out of charity had declined to$9$ penetrate disillusioning forces.  
015:035,23['  ]| These shocks had driven him from breathless flights of zeal  
015:035,24['  ]| shamefully inwards and the most that$6#1$ devotional exercises  
015:035,25['  ]| could do for$4$ him was to$9$ soothe him.  This soothing he badly  
015:035,26['  ]| needed for$3$ he suffered greatly from contact with his new 
015:035,27['  ]| environment.  He hardly spoke to$4$ his colleagues and performed  
015:035,28['  ]| the business of the class without remark or interest.   
015:035,29['  ]| Every morning he rose and came down to$4$ breakfast.  After  
015:035,30['  ]| breakfast he took the tram for$4$ town, settling himself on$4$ the  
015:035,31['  ]| front seat outside with his face to$4$ the wind.  He got down off  
015:035,32['  ]| the tram at Amiens*St*Station instead of going on$5$ to$4$ the  
015:035,33['  ]| Pillar because he wished to$9$  partake in$4$ the morning life of  
015:035,34['  ]| the city.  This morning walk was pleasant for$4$ him and there  
015:035,35['  ]| was no$2$ face that$6#1$ passed him on$4$ its way to$4$ its commercial 
015:035,36['  ]| prison but he strove to$9$ pierce to$4$ the motive centre of its  
015:036,01['  ]| ugliness.  It was always with a feeling of displeasure that$3$ he  
015:036,02['  ]| entered the Green and saw on$4$ the far side the gloomy building  
015:036,03['  ]| of the college.  
015:036,04['  ]| As he walked thus through the ways of the city he had his  
015:036,05['  ]| ears and eyes ever prompt to$9$ receive impressions.  It was not  
015:036,06['  ]| only in$4$ Skeat that$3$ he found words for$4$ his treasure-house, he  
015:036,07['  ]| found them also at haphazard in$4$ the shops, on$4$ advertisements, 
015:036,08['  ]| in$4$ the mouths of the plodding public.  He kept  
015:036,09['  ]| repeating them to$4$ himself till they lost all instantaneous  
015:036,10['  ]| meaning for$4$ him and became wonderful vocables.  He was  
015:036,11['  ]| determined to$9$ fight with every energy of soul and body  
015:036,12['  ]| against any possible consignment to$4$ what he now regarded  
015:036,13['  ]| as the hell of hells ~~ the region, otherwise expressed, wherein  
015:036,14['  ]| everything is found to$9$ be obvious ~~ and the saint who$6#1$  
015:036,15['  ]| formerly was chary of speech in$4$ obedience to$4$ a commandment  
015:036,16['  ]| of silence could just be recognised in$4$ the artist  
015:036,17['  ]| who$6#1$ schooled himself to$4$ silence lest words should return him  
015:036,18['  ]| his discourtesy.  Phrases came to$4$ him asking to$9$ have themselves  
015:036,19['  ]| explained.  He said to$4$ himself:  
015:036,19@b   | I must wait for$4$ the  
015:036,20@b   | Eucharist to$9$ come to$4$ me:  
015:036,20['  ]| and then he set about translating  
015:036,21['  ]| the phrase into common sense.  He spent days and nights  
015:036,22['  ]| hammering noisily as he built a house of silence for$4$ himself  
015:036,23['  ]| wherein he might await his Eucharist, days and nights  
015:036,24['  ]| gathering the first fruits and every peace-offering and heaping  
015:036,25['  ]| them upon$4$ his altar whereon he prayed clamorously  
015:036,26['  ]| the burning token of satisfaction might descend.  In$4$ class, in$4$ the  
015:036,27['  ]| hushed library, in$4$ the company of other students he would  
015:036,28['  ]| suddenly hear a command to$9$ begone, to$9$ be alone, a voice  
015:036,29['  ]| agitating the very tympanum of his ear, a flame leaping into  
015:036,30['  ]| divine cerebral life.  He would obey the command and  
015:036,31['  ]| wander up$4$ and down the streets alone, the fervour of his hope  
015:036,32['  ]| sustained by$4$ ejaculations until he felt sure that$3$ it was useless  
015:036,33['  ]| to$9$ wander any*more:  and then he would return home with a  
015:036,34['  ]| deliberate, unflagging step piecing together meaningless  
015:036,35['  ]| words and phrases with a deliberate unflagging seriousness.   
016:037,01['  ]| THEIR Eminences of the Holy*College are hardly more  
016:037,02['  ]| scrupulous solitaries during the ballot for$4$ Christ's vicar than  
016:037,03['  ]| was Stephen at this time.  He wrote a great deal of verse  
016:037,04['  ]| and, in$4$ default of any better contrivance, his verse allowed  
016:037,05['  ]| him to$9$ combine the offices of penitent and confessor.  He  
016:037,06['  ]| sought in$4$ his verses to$9$ fix the most elusive of his moods and  
016:037,07['  ]| he put his lines together not word by$4$ word but letter by$4$  
016:037,08['  ]| letter.  He read Blake and Rimbaud on$4$ the values of letters  
016:037,09['  ]| and even permuted and combined the five vowels to$9$ construct  
016:037,10['  ]| cries for$4$ primitive emotions.  To$4$ none of his former  
016:037,11['  ]| fervours had he given himself with such a whole heart as to$4$  
016:037,12['  ]| this fervour; the monk now seemed to$4$ him no$2$ more than  
016:037,13['  ]| half the artist.  He persuaded himself that$3$ it is necessary for$4$  
016:037,14['  ]| an artist to$9$ labour incessantly at his art if he wishes to$9$ express  
016:037,15['  ]| completely even the simplest conception and he believed  
016:037,16['  ]| that$3$ every moment of inspiration must be paid for$5$ in$4$ advance.  
016:037,17['  ]| He was not convinced of the truth of the saying  
016:037,18[Z  ]| ""The poet is born, not made"" 
016:037,18['  ]| but he was quite  
016:037,19['  ]| sure of the truth of this at least:  
016:037,19[Z  ]| ""The 
016:037,20[Z  ]| poem is made not born.""  
016:037,20['  ]| The burgher notion of the poet  
016:037,21['  ]| Byron in$4$ undress pouring out verses just as a city  
016:037,22['  ]| fountain pours out water seemed to$4$ him characteristic of  
016:037,23['  ]| most popular judgments on$4$ esthetic matters and he combated 
016:037,24['  ]| the notion at its root by$4$ saying solemnly to$4$ Maurice ~~  
016:037,25[B  ]| Isolation is the first principle of artistic economy.   
016:037,26['  ]| Stephen did not attach himself to$4$ art in$4$ any spirit of  
016:037,27['  ]| youthful dilettantism but strove to$9$ pierce to$4$ the significant  
016:037,28['  ]| heart of everything.  He doubled backwards into the past  
016:037,29['  ]| of humanity and caught glimpses of emergent art as one  
016:037,30['  ]| might have a vision of the plesiosauros emerging from his  
016:037,31['  ]| ocean of slime.  He seemed almost to$9$ hear the simple cries  
016:037,32['  ]| of fear and joy and wonder which$6#1$ are antecedent to$4$ all song, 
016:037,33['  ]| the savage rhythms of men pulling at the oar, to$9$ see the  
016:038,01['  ]| rude scrawls and the portable gods of men whose legacy  
016:038,02['  ]| Leonardo and Michelangelo inherit.  And over all this chaos  
016:038,03['  ]| of history and legend, of fact and supposition, he strove to$9$  
016:038,04['  ]| draw out a line of order, to$9$ reduce the abysses of the past  
016:038,05['  ]| to$9$ order by$4$ a diagram.  The treatises which$6#1$ were recommended  
016:038,06['  ]| to$4$ him he found valueless and trifling; the Laocoon  
016:038,07['  ]| of Lessing irritated him.  He wondered 
016:038,07[XB ]| how the world could  
016:038,08[XB ]| accept as valuable contributions such fanciful generalisations.   
016:038,09[XB ]| What finer certitude could be attained by$4$  
016:038,10[XB ]| the artist if he believed that$3$ ancient art was plastic and that$3$  
016:038,11[XB ]| modern art was pictorial 
016:038,11['  ]| ~~ ancient art in$4$ this context meaning  
016:038,12['  ]| art between the Balkans and the Morea and modern  
016:038,13['  ]| art meaning art anywhere between the Caucasus and the 
016:038,14['  ]| Atlantic except in$4$ the sacrosanct region.  A great contempt  
016:038,15['  ]| devoured him for$3$ the critics who$6#1$ considered ""Greek"" and  
016:038,16['  ]| ""classical"" interchangeable terms and so$5#1$ full was he of intemperate  
016:038,17['  ]| anger that$3$ when Father*Butt gave  
016:038,18['  ]| \Othello\ as the subject for$4$ the essay of the week Stephen  
016:038,19['  ]| lodged on$4$ the following Monday a profuse, downright protest  
016:038,20['  ]| against the ""masterpiece""!  The young men in$4$ the class  
016:038,21['  ]| laughed and Stephen, as he looked contemptuously at the  
016:038,22['  ]| laughing faces, thought of a self-submersive reptile.   
016:038,23['  ]| No-one would listen to$4$ his theories:  no-one was interested  
016:038,24['  ]| in$4$ art.  The young men in$4$ the college regarded art as a  
016:038,25['  ]| continental vice and they said in$4$ effect, 
016:038,25[X  ]| ""If we must have art  
016:038,26[X  ]| are there not enough subjects in$4$ Holy*Writ?"" ~~ 
016:038,26['  ]| for$4$ an artist  
016:038,27['  ]| with them was a man who$6#1$ painted pictures.  It was a bad  
016:038,28['  ]| sign for$4$ a young man to$9$ show interest in$4$ anything but his  
016:038,29['  ]| examinations or his prospective ""job"".  
016:038,29[XZ ]| It was all very well to$9$  
016:038,30[XZ ]| be able to$9$ talk about it but really art was all ""rot"":  besides  
016:038,31[XZ ]| it was probably immoral; 
016:038,31['  ]| they knew (or, at least, they had 
016:038,32['  ]| heard) about studios.  They did not want that$6#2$ kind of thing  
016:038,33['  ]| in$4$ their country.  Talk about beauty, talk about rhythms, 
016:038,34['  ]| talk about esthetic ~~ they knew what all the fine talk covered.   
016:038,35['  ]| One day a big countrified student came over to$4$ Stephen and  
016:038,36['  ]| asked;  
016:039,01[X  ]| ~~ Tell us, are not you an artist? 
016:039,02['  ]| Stephen gazed at the idea-proof young man, without  
016:039,03['  ]| answering.  
016:039,04[X  ]| ~~ Because if you are why do not you wear your hair long? 
016:039,05['  ]| A few bystanders laughed at this and Stephen wondered  
016:039,06[XB ]| for$4$ which$6#1$ of the learned professions the young man's father  
016:039,07[XB ]| designed him.   
016:039,08['  ]| In$4$ spite of his surroundings Stephen continued his labours  
016:039,09['  ]| of research and all the more ardently since he imagined  
016:039,10['  ]| they had been put under ban.   It was part of that$6#2$ ineradicable  
016:039,11['  ]| egoism which$6#1$ he was afterwards to$9$ call redeemer  
016:039,12['  ]| that$3$ he conceived converging to$4$ him the deeds and thoughs  
016:039,13['  ]| of his microcosm.  Is the mind of youth medieval that$3$ it is  
016:039,14['  ]| so$5#1$ divining of intrigue?  Field-sports (or their equivalent in$4$  
016:039,15['  ]| the world of mentality) are perhaps the most effective cure  
016:039,16['  ]| and Anglo*Saxon educators favour rather a system of hardy 
016:039,17['  ]| brutality.  But for$4$ this fantastic idealist, eluding the grunting  
016:039,18['  ]| booted apparition with a bound, the mimic warfare was no$2$  
016:039,19['  ]| less ludicrous than unequal in$4$ a ground chosen to$4$ his disadvantage.   
016:039,20['  ]| Behind the rapidly indurating shield the sensitive  
016:039,21['  ]| answered:  Let the pack of enmities come tumbling and  
016:039,22['  ]| sniffing to$4$ my highlands after their game.  There was his  
016:039,23['  ]| ground and he flung them disdain from flashing antlers.  
016:039,24['  ]| Indeed he felt the morning in$4$ his blood:  he was aware of  
016:039,25['  ]| some movement already proceeding out in$4$ Europe.  Of  
016:039,26['  ]| this last phrase he was fond for$3$ it seemed to$4$ him to$9$ unroll  
016:039,27['  ]| the measurable world before the feet of the islanders.   
016:040,01['  ]| Nothing could persuade him that$3$ the world was such as  
016:040,02['  ]| Father*Butt's students conceived it.  He had no$2$ need for$4$ the  
016:040,03['  ]| cautions which$6#1$ were named indispensable, no$2$ reverence for$4$  
016:040,04['  ]| the proprieties which$6#1$ were called the bases of life.  He was 
016:040,05['  ]| an enigmatic figure in$4$ the midst of his shivering society where  
016:040,06['  ]| he enjoyed a reputation.  His comrades hardly knew how  
016:040,07['  ]| far to$9$ venture with him and professors pretended to$9$ think  
016:040,08['  ]| his seriousness a sufficient warrant against any practical  
016:040,09['  ]| disobedience.  On$4$ his side chastity, having been found a  
016:040,10['  ]| great inconvenience, had been quietly abandoned and the  
016:040,11['  ]| youth amused himself in$4$ the company of certain of his fellow-students  
016:040,12['  ]| among whom (as the fame went) wild living was not  
016:040,13['  ]| unknown.  The Rector*of*Belvedere had a brother who$6#1$ was  
016:040,14['  ]| at this time a student in$4$ the college and one night in$4$ the  
016:040,15['  ]| gallery of the Gaiety (for$3$ Stephen had become a constant  
016:040,16['  ]| ""god"") another Belvedere boy, who$6#1$ was also a student in$4$  
016:040,17['  ]| the college, bore scandalous witness into Stephen's ear.   
016:040,18[X  ]| ~~ I say, Daedalus ~~ 
016:040,19[B  ]| ~~ Well? 
016:040,20[X  ]| ~~I wonder what MacNally would say if he met  
016:040,21[X  ]| his brother ~~ you know the fellow in$4$ the college? 
016:040,22[B  ]| ~~ Yes ~~ 
016:040,23[X  ]| ~~ I saw him in$4$ Stephen's*Green the other day with a tart.   
016:040,24[X  ]| I was just thinking if MacNally saw him. ~~ 
016:040,25['  ]| The informant paused:  and then, afraid of over-implication  
016:040,26['  ]| and with an air of a connoisseur, he added seriously: 
016:040,27[X  ]| ~~ Of course she was ~~ all right.   
016:040,28['  ]| Every evening after tea Stephen left his house and set out  
016:040,29['  ]| for$4$ the city, Maurice at his side.  The elder smoked cigarettes  
016:040,30['  ]| and the younger ate lemon drops and, aided by$4$ these animal  
016:040,31['  ]| comforts, they beguiled the long journey with a philosophic  
016:040,32['  ]| discourse.  Maurice was a very attentive person and one  
016:040,33['  ]| evening he told Stephen that$3$ he was keeping a diary of their         
016:040,34['  ]| conversations.  Stephen asked to$9$ see the diary but Maurice  
016:040,35['  ]| said 
016:040,35[YV ]| it would be time enough for$4$ that$6#2$ at the end of the first  
016:040,36[YV ]| year.  
016:040,36['  ]| Neither of the youths had the least suspicion of themselves;  
016:041,01['  ]| they both looked upon$4$ life with frank curious eyes  
016:041,02['  ]| (Maurice naturally serving himself with Stephen's vision  
016:041,03['  ]| when his own was deficient) and they both felt that$3$ it was  
016:041,04['  ]| possible to$9$ arrive at a sane understanding of so$5#2$ called  
016:041,05['  ]| mysteries if one only had patience enough.  On$4$ their way  
016:041,06['  ]| in$4$ every evening the heights of argument were traversed and  
016:041,07['  ]| the younger boy aided the elder bravely in$4$ the building of  
016:041,08['  ]| an entire science of esthetic.  They spoke to$4$ each other very  
016:041,09['  ]| decisively and Stephen found Maurice very useful for$4$ raising  
016:041,10['  ]| objections.  When they came to$4$ the gate of the Library they  
016:041,11['  ]| used to$9$ stand to$9$ finish some branch of their subject and often  
016:041,12['  ]| the discussion was so$5#1$ protracted that$3$ Stephen would decide  
016:041,13['  ]| that$3$ it was too late to$9$ go in$5$ to$9$ read and so$3$ they would set  
016:041,14['  ]| their faces for$4$ Clontarf and return in$4$ the same manner.   
016:041,15['  ]| Stephen, after certain hesitations, showed Maurice the first- 
016:041,16['  ]| fruits of his verse and Maurice asked who$6#1$ the woman was.   
016:041,17['  ]| Stephen looked a little vaguely before him before answering  
016:041,18['  ]| and in$4$ the end had to$9$ answer that$3$ he did not know who$6#1$ she was.   
016:041,19['  ]| To$4$ this unknown verses were now regularly inscribed and  
016:041,20['  ]| it seemed that$3$ the evil dream of love which$6#1$ Stephen chose to$9$  
016:041,21['  ]| commemorate in$4$ these verses lay veritably upon$4$ the world  
016:041,22['  ]| now in$4$ a season of damp violet mist.  He had abandoned  
016:041,23['  ]| his Madonna, he had forsaken his word and he had withdrawn  
016:041,24['  ]| sternly from his little world and surely it was not  
016:041,25['  ]| wonderful that$3$ his solitude should propel him to$4$ frenetic  
016:041,26['  ]| outbursts of a young man's passion and to$4$ outbursts of loneliness?   
016:041,27['  ]| This quality of the mind which$6#1$ so$5#2$ reveals itself is  
016:041,28['  ]| called (when incorrigible) a decadence but if we are to$9$ take  
016:041,29['  ]| a general view of the world we cannot but see a process  
016:041,30['  ]| to$4$ life through corruption.  There were moments for$4$ him, 
016:041,31['  ]| however, when such a process would have seemed intolerable, 
016:041,32['  ]| life on$4$ any common terms an intolerable offence, and at such  
016:041,33['  ]| moments he prayed for$4$ nothing and lamented for$4$ nothing  
016:041,34['  ]| but he felt that$3$ a sweet sinking of consciousness that$3$ if the  
016:041,35['  ]| end came to$4$ him it was in$4$ the arms of the unknown that$3$ it  
016:041,36['  ]| would come to$4$ him: 
016:042,01[Z  ]| The dawn awakes with tremulous alarms, 
016:042,02[Z  ]| How grey, how cold, how bare! 
016:042,03[Z  ]| O, hold me still white arms, encircling arms! 
016:042,04[Z  ]| And hide me, heavy hair! 
016:042,05[Z  ]| Life is a dream, a dram.  The hour is done 
016:042,06[Z  ]| And antiphon is said.  
016:042,07[Z  ]| We go from the light and falsehood of the sun 
016:042,08[Z  ]| bleak wastes of the dead.  
016:042,09['  ]| Little by$4$ little Stephen became more irregular in$4$ his  
016:042,10['  ]| attendances at the college.  He would leave his house every  
016:042,11['  ]| morning at the usual hour and come into the city on$4$ the  
016:042,12['  ]| tram.  But always at the Amiens*St*Station he would get down  
016:042,13['  ]| and walk and as often as not he would decide to$9$ follow some  
016:042,14['  ]| trivial indication of city life instead of entering the oppressive  
016:042,15['  ]| life of the college.  He often walked thus for$4$ seven or eight  
016:042,16['  ]| hours at a stretch without feeling in$4$ the least fatigued.  The  
016:042,17['  ]| damp Dublin winter seemed to$9$ harmonise with his inward  
016:042,18['  ]| sense of unreadiness and he did not follow the least of 
016:042,19['  ]| feminine provocations through tortuous, unexpected ways  
016:042,20['  ]| any more zealously than he followed through ways even less  
016:042,21['  ]| satisfying the nimble movements of the elusive one.  What  
016:042,22['  ]| was that$6#2$ One:  arms of love that$6#1$ had not love's malignity, 
016:042,23['  ]| laughter running upon$4$ the mountains of the morning, an  
016:042,24['  ]| hour wherein might be encountered the incommunicable?   
016:042,25['  ]| And if the heart but trembled an instant at some approach  
016:042,26['  ]| to$4$ that$6#2$ he would cry, youthfully, passionately 
016:042,26[B  ]| ""It is so$5#2$!  It 
016:042,27[B  ]| is so$5#2$!  Life is such as I conceive it.""  
016:042,27['  ]| He spurned from before  
016:042,28['  ]| him the stale maxims of the Jesuits and he swore an oath that$3$  
016:042,29['  ]| they should never establish over him an ascendancy.   
016:042,30['  ]| He spurned from before him a world of the higher culture  
016:042,31['  ]| in$4$ which$6#1$ there was neither scholarship nor art nor dignity of  
016:042,32['  ]| manners ~~ a world of trivial intrigues and trivial triumphs.   
016:042,33['  ]| Above all he spurned from before him the company of  
016:042,34['  ]| decrepit youth ~~ and he swore an oath that$3$ never would they  
016:043,01['  ]| establish with him a compact of fraud.  Find words!  fine  
016:043,02['  ]| oaths!  crying bravely and passionately even in$4$ the teeth of  
016:043,03['  ]| circumstances.  For$3$ not unfrequently in$4$ the pauses of rapture  
016:043,04['  ]| Dublin would lay a sudden hand upon$4$ his shoulder, and  
016:043,05['  ]| the chill of the summons would strike to$4$ his heart.  One day  
016:043,06['  ]| he passed on$4$ his homeward journey through Fairview.  At  
016:043,07['  ]| the fork of the roads before the swampy beach a big dog was  
016:043,08['  ]| recumbent.  From time to$4$ time he lifted his muzzle in$4$ the  
016:043,09['  ]| vapourous air, uttering a prolonged sorrowful howl.  People 
016:043,10['  ]| had gathered on$4$ the foothpaths to$9$ hear him.  Stephen  
016:043,11['  ]| made one of them till he felt the first drops of rain, and then  
016:043,12['  ]| he continued his way in$4$ silence under the dull surveillance  
016:043,13['  ]| of heaven, hearing from time to$4$ time behind him the strange  
016:043,14['  ]| lamentation.   
016:043,15['  ]| It was natural that$3$ the more the youth sought solitude for$4$  
016:043,16['  ]| himself the more his society sought to$9$ prevent his purpose.   
016:043,17['  ]| Though he was still in$4$ his first year he was considered a  
016:043,18['  ]| personality and there were even many who$6#1$ thought that$6#2$  
016:043,19['  ]| though his theories were a trifle ardent they were not without 
016:043,20['  ]| meaning.  Stephen came seldom to$4$ lectures, prepared  
016:043,21['  ]| nothing and absented himself from term examinations and  
016:043,22['  ]| not merely was no$2$ remark passed on$4$ these extravagances  
016:043,23['  ]| but it was supposed probable that$3$ he represented really the  
016:043,24['  ]| artistic type and that$3$ he was, after the fashion of that$6#2$ little  
016:043,25['  ]| known tribe, educating himself.  It must not be supposed  
016:043,26['  ]| that$3$ the popular University*of*Ireland lacked an intelligent  
016:043,27['  ]| centre.  Outside the compact body of national revivalists  
016:043,28['  ]| there were here and there students who$6#1$ had certain ideas of  
016:043,29['  ]| their own and were more or less tolerated by$4$ their fellows.   
016:043,30['  ]| For$4$ instance there was a serious young feminist named  
016:043,31['  ]| McCann ~~ a blunt brisk figure, wearing a Cavalier beard  
016:043,32['  ]| and shooting-suit, and a steadfast reader of the \Review of Reviews\.   
016:043,33['  ]| The students of the college did not understand what  
016:043,34['  ]| manner of ideas he favoured and they considered that$3$ they  
016:043,35['  ]| rewarded his originality sufficiently by$4$ calling him ""Knicker-bockers"".   
016:043,36['  ]| There was also the College orator ~~ a most  
016:044,01['  ]| amenable young man who$6#1$ spoke at all meetings.  Cranly too  
016:044,02['  ]| was a personality and Madden had soon been recognised as the  
016:044,03['  ]| spokesman of the patriotic party.  Stephen may be said  
016:044,04['  ]| to$9$ have occupied the position of notable-extraordinary:  very  
016:044,05['  ]| few had every heard of the writers he was reported to$9$ read and  
016:044,06['  ]| those who$6#1$ had knew them to$9$ be 
016:044,06[X  ]| mad fellows.  
016:044,06['  ]| At the same  
016:044,07['  ]| time as Stephen's manner was so$5#1$ unbending to$4$ all it was  
016:044,08['  ]| supposed that$3$ he had preserved his sanity entire and safely  
016:044,09['  ]| braved temptations.  People began to$9$ defer him, to$9$ invite  
016:044,10['  ]| him to$4$ their houses and to$9$ present serious faces to$4$ him.  His  
016:044,11['  ]| were simply theories and, as he had as yet committed no$2$  
016:044,12['  ]| breach of the law, he was respectfully invited to$9$ read a  
016:044,13['  ]| paper before the Literary and Historical Society of the  
016:044,14['  ]| college.  The date was fixed for$4$ the end of March and the  
016:044,15['  ]| title of the paper was announced as ""Drama and Life"".   
016:044,16['  ]| Many risked the peril of rebuff to$9$ engage the young eccentric  
016:044,17['  ]| in$4$ talk but Stephen preserved a disdainful silence.  One night  
016:044,18['  ]| as he was returning from a party a reporter of one of the  
016:044,19['  ]| Dublin papers, who$6#1$ had been introduced that$6#2$ evening to$4$  
016:044,20['  ]| the prodigy, approached him and after a few exchanges said 
016:044,21['  ]| to$4$ him tentatively: 
016:044,22[X  ]| ~~ I was reading of that$6#2$ writer ~~ what is this you call  
016:044,23[X  ]| him ~~ Maeterlinck the other day ~~ you know? 
016:044,24[B  ]| ~~ Yes ~~ 
016:044,25[X  ]| ~~ I was reading, \The*Intruder\ I think was the name of it ~~  
016:044,26[X  ]| Very ~~ curious play ~~ 
016:044,27['  ]| Stephen had no$2$ wish to$9$ talk to$4$ the man about Maeterlinck  
016:044,28['  ]| and on$4$ the other hand he did not like$1$ to$9$ offend by$4$ the silence  
016:044,29['  ]| which$6#1$ the remark and the tone and the intention all seemed  
016:044,30['  ]| to$9$ deserve so$3$ he cast about quickly in$4$ his mind for$4$ some non-committal  
016:044,31['  ]| banality with which$6#1$ to$9$ pay the debt.  At last he 
016:044,32['  ]| said: 
016:044,33[B  ]| ~~ It would be hard to$9$ put it on$4$ the stage.  
016:044,34['  ]| The journalist was quite satisfied at this exchange as if it  
016:044,35['  ]| was just this impression and no$2$ other which$6#1$ Maeterlinck's  
016:044,36['  ]| play had produced upon$4$ him.  He assented with conviction:   
016:045,01[X  ]| ~~ O yes! ~~ next to$4$ impossible ~~  
016:045,02['  ]| Allusions of such a kind to$4$ what he held so$5#1$ dear at heart  
016:045,03['  ]| wounded Stephen deeply.  It must be said simply and at  
016:045,04['  ]| once that$3$ at this time Stephen suffered the most enduring  
016:045,05['  ]| influence of his life.  The spectacle of the world which$6#1$ his 
016:045,06['  ]| intelligence presented to$4$ him with every sordid and deceptive  
016:045,07['  ]| detail set side by$4$ side with the spectacle of the world which$6#1$  
016:045,08['  ]| the monster in$4$ him, now grown to$4$ a reasonably heroic stage, 
016:045,09['  ]| presented also had often filled him with such sudden despair  
016:045,10['  ]| as could be assuaged only by$4$ melancholy versing.  He had  
016:045,11['  ]| all but decided to$9$ consider the two worlds as aliens one to$4$  
016:045,12['  ]| another ~~ however disguised or expressed the most utter of  
016:045,13['  ]| pessimisms ~~ when he encountered through the medium of  
016:045,14['  ]| hardly procured translations the spirit of Henrik*Ibsen.  He  
016:045,15['  ]| understood that$6#2$ spirit instantaneously.  Some years before  
016:045,16['  ]| this same instantaneous understanding had occurred when  
016:045,17['  ]| he had read the very puzzled, apologetic account which$6#1$  
016:045,18['  ]| Rousseau's English biographer had given of the young 
016:045,19['  ]| philosopher's stealing his mistress's spoons and allowing a  
016:045,20['  ]| servant-girl to$9$ be accused of the theft at the very moment  
016:045,21['  ]| when he was beginning his struggle for$4$ Truth and Liberty.   
016:045,22['  ]| Just as then with the perverse philosopher so$5#2$  
016:045,23['  ]| now:  Ibsen had no$2$ need of apologist or critic:  the minds of  
016:045,24['  ]| the old Norse poet and of the perturbed young Celt met in$4$ a  
016:045,25['  ]| moment of radiant simultaneity.  Stephen was captivated  
016:045,26['  ]| first by$4$ the evident excellence of the art:  he was not long  
016:045,27['  ]| before he began to$9$ affirm, out of a sufficiently scanty knowledge  
016:045,28['  ]| of the tract, of course, that$3$ Ibsen was the first among  
016:045,29['  ]| the dramatists of the world.  In$4$ translations of the Hindu or  
016:045,30['  ]| Greek or Chinese theatres he found only anticipations of or  
016:045,31['  ]| attempts and in$4$ the French classical, and the English 
016:045,32['  ]| romantic, theatres anticipations less distinct and attempts  
016:045,33['  ]| less successful.  But it was not only this excellence which$6#1$  
016:045,34['  ]| captivated him:  it was not that$6#2$ which$6#1$ he greeted gladly  
016:045,35['  ]| with an entire joyful spiritual salutation.  It was the very 
016:045,36['  ]| spirit of Ibsen himself that$6#1$ was discerned moving behind the  
016:046,01['  ]| impersonal manner of the artist:   
016:046,02['  ]|  
016:046,03[XB ]| a mind of sincere  
016:046,04[XB ]| and boylike bravery, of disillusioned pride, of minute  
016:046,05[XB ]| and wilful energy.  Let the world solve itself in$4$ whatsoever  
016:046,06[XB ]| fashion it pleased, let its putative Maker justify Himself by$4$  
016:046,07[XB ]| whatsoever processes seemed good to$4$ Him, one could scarcely  
016:046,08[XB ]| advance the dignity of the human attitude a step beyond this  
016:046,09[XB ]| answer.  Here and not in$4$ Shakespeare or Goethe was the  
016:046,10[XB ]| successor to$4$ the first poet of the Europeans, here, as only to$4$ 
016:046,11[XB ]| such purpose in$4$ Dante, a human personality had been found  
016:046,12[XB ]| united with an artistic manner which$6#1$ was itself almost a  
016:046,13[XB ]| natural phenomenon:  and the spirit of the time united one  
016:046,14[XB ]| more readily with the Norwegeian than with the Florentine.   
016:046,15['  ]| The young men of the college had not the least idea who$6#1$  
016:046,16['  ]| Ibsen was but from what they could gather here and there  
016:046,17['  ]| they surmised that$3$ he must be one of the atheistic writers  
016:046,18['  ]| whom the papal secretary puts on$4$ the \Index\.  It was a novelty  
016:046,19['  ]| to$9$ hear anyone mention such a name in$4$ their college but  
016:046,20['  ]| as the professors gave no$2$ lead in$4$ condemnation they concluded  
016:046,21['  ]| that$3$ they had better wait.  Meanwhile they were  
016:046,22['  ]| somewhat impressed:  many now began to$9$ say that$3$ though 
016:046,23['  ]| Ibsen was immoral he was a great writer and one of the professors  
016:046,24['  ]| was heard to$9$ say that$3$ when he was in$4$ Berlin last  
016:046,25['  ]| summer on$4$ his holidays there had been a great deal of talk  
016:046,26['  ]| about some play of Ibsen's which$6#1$ was being performed at  
016:046,27['  ]| one of the theatres.  Stephen had begun to$9$ study Danish  
016:046,28['  ]| instead of preparing his course for$4$ examination and this  
016:046,29['  ]| fact was magnified into a report that$3$ he was a competent  
016:046,30['  ]| Danish scholar.  That$6#2$ youth was astute enough to$9$ profit by$4$  
016:046,31['  ]| rumours which$6#1$ he took no$2$ trouble to$9$ contradict.  He smiled  
016:046,32['  ]| to$9$ think that$3$ these people in$4$ their hearts feared him as an  
016:046,33['  ]| infidel and he marvelled at the quality of their supposed  
016:046,34['  ]| beliefs.  Father*Butt talked to$4$ him a great deal and Stephen  
016:047,01['  ]| was nothing loth to$9$ make himself the herald of a new 
016:047,02['  ]| order.  He never spoke with heat and he argued always as  
016:047,03['  ]| if he did not greatly care which$6#1$ way the argument went, at  
016:047,04['  ]| the same time never losing a point.  The Jesuits and their  
016:047,05['  ]| flocks may have said to$4$ themselves:  the youthful seeming-independent  
016:047,06['  ]| we know, and the appeasable patriot we know, 
016:047,07['  ]| but what are you?  They played up$5$ to$4$ him very well, considering  
016:047,08['  ]| their disadvantages, and Stephen could not understand  
016:047,09['  ]| why they took the trouble to$9$ humour him.   
016:047,10[G  ]| ~~ Yes, yes, 
016:047,10['  ]| said Father*Butt one day after one of these  
016:047,11[G  ]| scenes, I see ~~ I quite see your point ~~ It would apply  
016:047,12[G  ]| of course to$4$ the dramas of Turge=nieff? 
016:047,13['  ]| Stephen had read and admired certain translations of  
016:047,14['  ]| Turge=nieff's novels and stories and he asked therefore with  
016:047,15['  ]| a genuine note in$4$ his voice: 
016:047,16[B  ]| ~~ Do you mean his novels? 
016:047,17[G  ]| ~~ Novels, yes, 
016:047,17['  ]| said Father*Butt swiftly, ~~ 
016:047,17[G  ]| his novels, to$9$  
016:047,18[G  ]| be sure ~~ but of course they are dramas ~~ are they not, 
016:047,19[G  ]| Mr*Daedalus? 
016:047,20['  ]| Very often Stephen used to$9$ visit at a house in$4$ Donnybrook  
016:047,21['  ]| the atmosphere of which$6#1$ was compact of liberal patriotism  
016:047,22['  ]| and orthodox study.  There were several marriageable  
016:047,23['  ]| daughters in$4$ the family and whenever any promise on$4$  
016:047,24['  ]| the part of a young student was signalled he was sure to$9$  
016:047,25['  ]| receive an invitation to$4$ his house.  The young feminist  
016:047,26['  ]| McCann was a constant visitor there and Madden used to$9$  
016:047,27['  ]| visit occasionally.  The father of the family was an elderly  
016:047,28['  ]| man who$6#1$ played chess on$4$ week evenings with his grown-up  
016:047,29['  ]| sons and assisted on$4$ Sunday evenings at a round of games and  
016:047,30['  ]| music.  The music was supplied by$4$ Stephen.  There was an  
016:047,31['  ]| old piano in$4$ the room and when the room was tired of games  
016:047,32['  ]| one of the daughters used to$9$ come over smilingly to$4$ Stephen  
016:047,33['  ]| and ask him to$9$ sing them some of his beautiful songs.  The  
016:047,34['  ]| keys of the piano were worn away and sometimes the notes  
016:047,35['  ]| would not sound but the tone was soft and mellow and  
016:047,36['  ]| Stephen used to$9$ sit down and sing his beautiful songs to$4$ the  
016:048,01['  ]| polite, tired unmusical audience.  The songs, for$4$ him at  
016:048,02['  ]| least, were really beautiful ~~ the old country songs of England  
016:048,03['  ]| and the elegant songs of the Elizabethans.  The ""moral""  
016:048,04['  ]| of these songs was sometimes a little dubious and Stephen's  
016:048,05['  ]| ear used to$9$ catch at once the note of qualification in$4$ the  
016:048,06['  ]| applause that$6#1$ followed them.  The studious daughters found  
016:048,07['  ]| these songs very quaint but Mr*Daniel said that$3$ 
016:048,07[YV ]| Stephen  
016:048,08[YV ]| should sing operatic music if he wanted to$9$ have his voice 
016:048,09[YV ]| heard properly.  
016:048,09['  ]| In$4$ spite of the entire absence of sympathy  
016:048,10['  ]| between this circle and himself Stephen was very much at  
016:048,11['  ]| ease in$4$ it and he was as they bade him be, very much ""at  
016:048,12['  ]| home"" as he sat on$4$ the sofa counting the lumps of horsehair  
016:048,13['  ]| with the ends of his fingers, and listening to$4$ the conversation.  
016:048,14['  ]| The young men and the daughters amused themselves  
016:048,15['  ]| tolerably under Mr*Daniel's eye but whenever there was an  
016:048,16['  ]| approach to$4$ artistic matters during the process of their  
016:048,17['  ]| games Stephen with egoistic humour imagined his presence 
016:048,18['  ]| acting as a propriety.  He could see seriousness developing  
016:048,19['  ]| on$4$ the shrewd features of a young man who$6#1$ had to$9$ put  
016:048,20['  ]| a certain question to$4$ one of the daughters: 
016:048,21[X  ]| ~~ I suppose it is my turn now ~~ Well ~~ let me see ~~  
016:048,22['  ]| (and here he became as serious as a young man, who$6#1$ has  
016:048,23['  ]| been laughing very much for$4$ a full five minutes, can become) 
016:048,24[X  ]| ~~ Who$6#2$ is your favourite poet, Annie? 
016:048,25['  ]| Annie thought for$4$ a few moments:  there was a pause.   
016:048,26['  ]| Annie and the young man were ""doing"" the same course.  
016:048,27[X  ]| ~~ ~~ German? 
016:048,28[X  ]| ~~ ~~ Yes.  
016:048,29['  ]| Annie though for$4$ another few moments while the table  
016:048,30['  ]| waited to$9$ be edified.  
016:048,31[X  ]| ~~ I think ~~ Goethe.  
016:048,32['  ]| McCann used very often to$9$ organize charades in$4$ which$6#1$  
016:048,33['  ]| he used to$9$ take the most violent parts.  The charades were  
016:048,34['  ]| very farcical and everyone took his part with goodwill, 
016:049,01['  ]| Stephen as well as others.  Stephen would  
016:049,02['  ]| play his quiet deliberative manner off against McCann's  
016:049,03['  ]| uproarious acting and for$4$ this reason the two were often  
016:049,04['  ]| ""picked"" together.  These charades wearied Stephen a little  
016:049,05['  ]| but McCann was very much given to$4$ organising them  
016:049,06['  ]| as he was of the opinion that$3$ amusement is necessary for$4$ the  
016:049,07['  ]| bodily welfare of mankind.  The young feminist's Northern  
016:049,08['  ]| accent always excited laughter and his face, adorned with  
016:049,09['  ]| its Cavalier beard, was certainly capable of brazen grimaces.   
016:049,10['  ]| In$4$ the college McCann had never been assimilated  
016:049,11['  ]| on$4$ account of his ""ideas"" but here he partook of the inner life  
016:049,12['  ]| of the family.  In$4$ his house it was the custom to$9$ call a young  
016:049,13['  ]| visitor by$4$ his Christian name a little too soon and though  
016:049,14['  ]| Stephen was spared the compliment, McCann was never  
016:049,15['  ]| spoken of as anything but ""Phil"".  Stephen used to$9$ call him  
016:049,16['  ]| ""Bonny*Dundee"" nonsensically associating his brisk  
016:049,17['  ]| name and his brisk manners with the sound of the line: 
016:049,18[Z  ]| Come fill up$5$ my cup, come fill up$5$ my can.  
016:049,19['  ]| Whenever the evening assumed the character of a serious  
016:049,20['  ]| affair Mr*Daniel would be asked to$9$ recite something for$4$ the  
016:049,21['  ]| company.  Mr*Daniel had formerly been the manager of a  
016:049,22['  ]| theatre in$4$ Wexford and he had often spoken at public  
016:049,23['  ]| meetings through the country.  He recited national pieces  
016:049,24['  ]| in$4$ a stern declamatory fashion amid attentive silence.  The  
016:049,25['  ]| daughters also recited.  During these recitations Stephen's  
016:049,26['  ]| eye never moved from the picture of the Sacred*Heart which$6#1$  
016:049,27['  ]| hung right above the head of the reciter's head.  The Miss*Daniels  
016:049,28['  ]| were not so$5#1$ imposing as their father and their dress  
016:049,29['  ]| was somewhat colleen.   
016:049,30['  ]| Jesus, moreover, exposed his heart somewhat too obviously  
016:049,31['  ]| in$4$ the cheap print:  and Stephen's thoughts were usually  
016:049,32['  ]| fascinated to$4$ a pleasant stupor by$4$ these twin futilities.  A  
016:049,33['  ]| parliamentary charade was frequent.  Mr*Daniel had sat 
016:050,01['  ]| for$4$ his county some years before and for$4$ this reason he was  
016:050,02['  ]| chosen to$9$ impersonate the Speaker*of*the*House.  McCann  
016:050,03['  ]| always represented a member of the Opposition and he  
016:050,04['  ]| spoke point-blank.  Then a member would protest and there  
016:050,05['  ]| would be a make-believe of parliamentary manners.   
016:050,06[X  ]| ~~ Mr*Speaker, I must ask ~~ 
016:050,07[X  ]| ~~ Order!  Order! 
016:050,08[X  ]| ~~ You know it is a lie! 
016:050,09[X  ]| ~~ You must withdraw, Sir.   
016:050,10[X  ]| ~~ As I was saying before the honourable gentleman interrupted  
016:050,11[X  ]| we must ~~ 
016:050,12[X  ]| ~~ I will$1$ not withdraw.  
016:050,13[X  ]| ~~ I must ask honourable members to$9$ preserve order in$4$ the  
016:050,14[X  ]| House.  
016:050,15[X  ]| ~~ I will$1$ not withdraw.  
016:050,16[X  ]| ~~ Order!  Order! 
016:050,17['  ]| Another favourite was ""Who's*Who"".  A person goes out of  
016:050,18['  ]| the room and the rest of the company choose the name of  
016:050,19['  ]| someone who$6#1$ is supposed to$9$ have special attractions for$4$ the  
016:050,20['  ]| absent player.  This latter, when he returns to$4$ the company, 
016:050,21['  ]| has to$9$ ask questions all round and try to$9$ guess the name.  This  
016:050,22['  ]| game was generally used to$4$ the discomfiture of the young male  
016:050,23['  ]| guests for$4$ the manner in$4$ which$6#1$ it was played suggested that$3$  
016:050,24['  ]| each young student had an affair of the heart with some  
016:050,25['  ]| young lady within tolerable distance of him:  but the young  
016:050,26['  ]| men, who$6#1$ were at first surprised by$4$ these implications, ended  
016:050,27['  ]| by$4$ looking as if they thought that$3$ the sagacity of the other  
016:050,28['  ]| players had just forestalled them in$4$ an unexpected, not  
016:050,29['  ]| unpleasant, discovery.  No$2$ such suggestion could be seriously  
016:050,30['  ]| made by$4$ the company to$9$ fit Stephen's case and so$3$ the first  
016:050,31['  ]| time he played the game they chose differently for$4$ him.   
016:050,32['  ]| The players were unable to$9$ answer his  
016:050,33['  ]| questions when he returned to$4$ the room:  such questions as:   
016:050,34[B  ]| ""Where does the person live?""   ""Is the person married or  
016:050,35[B  ]| single?"" ""What age is the person?""  
016:050,35['  ]| could not be answered by$4$  
016:050,36['  ]| the circle until McCann had been consulted in$4$ a swift  
016:051,01['  ]| undertone.  The answer ""Norway"" gave Stephen the clue at  
016:051,02['  ]| once and so$3$ the game ended and the company proceeded  
016:051,03['  ]| to$9$ divert themselves as before this serious interruption.   
016:051,04['  ]| Stephen sat down beside one of the daughters and, while 
016:051,05['  ]| admiring the rural comeliness of her feature, waited quietly  
016:051,06['  ]| for$4$ her first word which$6#1$, he knew, would destroy his satisfaction.   
016:051,07['  ]| Her large handsome eyes looked at him for$4$ a while as  
016:051,08['  ]| if they were about to$9$ trust him and then she said: 
016:051,09[X  ]| ~~ How did you guess it so$5#1$ quickly? 
016:051,10[B  ]| ~~ I knew you meant him.  But you are wrong about his  
016:051,11[B  ]| age.   
016:051,12['  ]| Others had heard this:  but she was impressed by$4$ a possible  
016:051,13['  ]| vastness of the unknown, complimented to$9$ confer with one  
016:051,14['  ]| who$6#1$ conferred directly with the exceptional.  She leaned  
016:051,15['  ]| forward to$9$ speak with soft seriousness.   
016:051,16[X  ]| ~~ Why, how old is he? 
016:051,17[B  ]| ~~ Over seventy.  
016:051,18[X  ]| ~~ Is he? 
016:051,19['  ]| Stephen now imagined that$3$ he had explored this region  
016:051,20['  ]| sufficiently and he would have discontinued his visits had  
016:051,21['  ]| not two causes induced him to$9$ continue.  The first cause was  
016:051,22['  ]| the unpleasant character of his home and the second was the  
016:051,23['  ]| curiosity occasioned by$4$ the advent of a new figure.  One  
016:051,24['  ]| evening while he was musing on$4$ the horsehair sofa he heard  
016:051,25['  ]| his name called and stood up$5$ to$9$ be introduced.  A dark full-figured  
016:051,26['  ]| girl was standing before him and, without waiting  
016:051,27['  ]| for$4$ Miss*Daniel's introduction , she said: 
016:051,28[X  ]| ~~ I think we know each other already.  
016:051,29['  ]| She sat beside him on$4$ the sofa and he found out that$3$ she  
016:051,30['  ]| was studying in$4$ the same college with the Miss*Daniels and  
016:051,31['  ]| that$3$ she always signed her name in$4$ Irish.  She said Stephen  
016:051,32[YX ]| should learn Irish too and join the League.  
016:051,32['  ]| A young  
016:051,33['  ]| man of the company, whose face wore always the  
016:051,34['  ]| same look of studied purpose, spoke with her across Stephen  
016:051,35['  ]| addressing her familiarly by$4$ her Irish name.  Stephen therefore  
016:051,36['  ]| spoke very formally and always addressed her as ""Miss*Clery"".   
016:052,01['  ]| She seemed on$4$ her part to$9$ include him in$4$ the general  
016:052,02['  ]| scheme of her nationalizing charm:  and when he helped her  
016:052,03['  ]| into her jacket she allowed his hands to$9$ rest for$4$ a moment  
016:052,04['  ]| against the warm flesh of her shoulders.   
017:053,01['  ]| STEPHEN'S home-life had by$4$ this time grown sufficiently unpleasant:   
017:053,02['  ]| the direction of his development was against the  
017:053,03['  ]| stream of tendency of his family.  The evening walks with  
017:053,04['  ]| Maurice had been prohibited for$3$ it had become evident that$3$  
017:053,05['  ]| Stephen was corrupting his brother to$4$ idle habits.  Stephen  
017:053,06['  ]| was harassed very much by$4$ enquiries as to$4$ his progress at  
017:053,07['  ]| the College and Mr*Daedalus, meditating upon$4$ the evasive  
017:053,08['  ]| answers, had begun to$9$ express a fear that$3$ his son was falling  
017:053,09['  ]| into bad company.  The youth was given to$9$ understand that$3$  
017:053,10['  ]| if he did not succeed brilliantly at the coming examination  
017:053,11['  ]| his career at the University would come to$4$ a close.  He was  
017:053,12['  ]| not greatly troubled by$4$ this warning for$3$ he knew that$3$ his  
017:053,13['  ]| fate was, in$4$ this respect, with his godfather and not with his 
017:053,14['  ]| father.  He felt that$3$ the moments of his youth were too  
017:053,15['  ]| precious to$9$ be wasted in$4$ a dull mechanical endeavour and  
017:053,16['  ]| he determined, whatever came of it, to$9$ prosecute his intentions  
017:053,17['  ]| to$4$ the end.  His family expected that$3$ he would at once 
017:053,18['  ]| follow the path of remunerative respectability and save the  
017:053,19['  ]| situation but he could not satisfy his family.  He thanked  
017:053,20['  ]| their intention:  it had first fulfilled him with egoism; and he  
017:053,21['  ]| rejoiced that$3$ his life had been so$5#1$ self-centred.  He felt  
017:053,22['  ]| however that$3$ there were activities which$6#1$ it would be a  
017:053,23['  ]| peril to$9$ postpone.   
017:053,24['  ]| Maurice accepted this prohibition with a bad grace and  
017:053,25['  ]| had to$9$ be restrained by$4$ his brother from overt disobedience.   
017:053,26['  ]| Stephen himself bore it lightly because he could ease himself  
017:053,27['  ]| greatly in$4$ solitude and for$4$ human channels, at the worst, he  
017:053,28['  ]| could resort to$4$ a few of his college-companions.  He was now  
017:053,29['  ]| busily preparing his paper for$4$ the Literary*and*Historical*Society 
017:053,30['  ]| and he took every precaution to$9$ ensure in$4$ it a maximum  
017:053,31['  ]| of explosive force.  It seemed to$4$ him that$3$ the students  
017:053,32['  ]| might need only the word to$9$ enkindle them towards liberty  
017:053,33['  ]| or that$6#2$, at least, his trumpet-call might bright to$4$ his side a  
017:054,01['  ]| certain minority of the elect.  McCann was the Auditor of  
017:054,02['  ]| the Society and as he was anxious to$9$ know the trend of  
017:054,03['  ]| Stephen's paper the two used often to$9$ leave the Library at  
017:054,04['  ]| ten o'clock and walk towards the Auditor's lodgings, discussing.   
017:054,05['  ]| McCann enjoyed the reputation of a fearless, free-spoken  
017:054,06['  ]| young man but Stephen found it difficult to$9$ bring  
017:054,07['  ]| him to$4$ an fixed terms on$4$ matters which$6#1$ were held to$9$ be  
017:054,08['  ]| dangerous ground.  McCann would talk freely on$4$ feminism 
017:054,09['  ]| and on$4$ rational life:  he believed that$3$ the sexes should be  
017:054,10['  ]| educated together in$4$ order to$9$ accustom them early to$4$ each  
017:054,11['  ]| other's influences and he believed that$3$ women should be  
017:054,12['  ]| afforded the same opportunities as were afforded to$4$ the so-called  
017:054,13['  ]| superior sex and he believed that$3$ women had the  
017:054,14['  ]| right to$9$ compete with men in$4$ every branch of social and  
017:054,15['  ]| intellectual activity.  He also held the opinion that$3$ a man  
017:054,16['  ]| should live without using any kind of stimulant, that$3$ he had a  
017:054,17['  ]| moral obligation to$9$ transmit to$4$ posterity sound minds in$4$  
017:054,18['  ]| sound bodies, and that$3$ he should not allow himself to$9$ be  
017:054,19['  ]| dictated to$5$ on$4$ the subject of dress by$4$ any conventions.   
017:054,20['  ]| Stephen delighted to$9$ riddle these theories with agile bullets.   
017:054,21[B  ]| ~~ You would have no$2$ sphere of life closed to$4$ them? 
017:054,22[G  ]| ~~ Certainly not.  
017:054,23[B  ]| ~~ Would you have the soldiery, the police and the fire-brigade  
017:054,24[B  ]| recruited also from them? 
017:054,25[H  ]| ~~ There are certain social duties for$4$ which$6#1$ women are  
017:054,26[H  ]| physically unfitted.  
017:054,27[B  ]| ~~ I believe you.  
017:054,28[H  ]| ~~ At the same time they should be allowed to$9$ follow any  
017:054,29[H  ]| civil profession for$4$ which$6#1$ they have an aptitude.  
017:054,30[B  ]| ~~ Doctors and lawyers? 
017:054,31[H  ]| ~~ Certainly.  
017:054,32[B  ]| ~~ And what about the third learned profession? 
017:054,33[H  ]| ~~ How do you mean? 
017:054,34[B  ]| ~~ Do you think they would make good confessors? 
017:054,35[H  ]| ~~ You are flippant.  The Church does not allow women  
017:054,36[H  ]| to$9$ enter the priesthood.  
017:055,01[B  ]| ~~ O, the Church! 
017:055,02['  ]| Whenever the conversation reached this point McCann  
017:055,03['  ]| refused to$9$ follow it further.  The discussion usually ended in$4$  
017:055,04['  ]| a deadlock; 
017:055,05[B  ]| ~~ But you go mountain-climbing in$4$ search of fresh air? 
017:055,06[H  ]| ~~ Yes.  
017:055,07[B  ]| ~~ And bathing in$4$ the summertime? 
017:055,08[H  ]| ~~ Yes.  
017:055,09[B  ]| ~~ And surely the mountain air and the salt water act as  
017:055,10[B  ]| stimulants! 
017:055,11[H  ]| ~~ Natural stimulants, yes.  
017:055,12[B  ]| ~~ What do you call an unnatural stimulant? 
017:055,13[H  ]| ~~ Intoxicating drinks.  
017:055,14[B  ]| ~~ But they are produced from natural vegetable substances, 
017:055,15[B  ]| are not they? 
017:055,16[H  ]| ~~ Perhaps, but by$4$ an unnatural process.  
017:055,17[B  ]| ~~ Then you regard a brewer as a high thaumaturgist? 
017:055,18[H  ]| ~~ Intoxicating drinks are manufactured to$9$ satisfy artificially  
017:055,19[H  ]| induced appetites.  Man, in$4$ the normal condition, has  
017:055,20[H  ]| no$2$ need for$4$ such props to$4$ life.   
017:055,21[B  ]| ~~ Give me an example of man in$4$ what you call ""the  
017:055,22[B  ]| normal condition"".  
017:055,23[H  ]| ~~ A man who$6#1$ lives a healthy, natural life.  
017:055,24[B  ]| ~~ Yourself? 
017:055,25[H  ]| ~~ Yes.  
017:055,26[B  ]| ~~ Do you then represent normal humanity? 
017:055,27[H  ]| ~~ I do.  
017:055,28[B  ]| ~~ Then is normal humanity short-sighted and tone-deaf? 
017:055,29[H  ]| ~~ Tone-deaf? 
017:055,30[B  ]| ~~ Yes:  I think you are tone-deaf.  
017:055,31[H  ]| ~~ I life to$9$ hear music.   
017:055,32[B  ]| ~~ What music? 
017:055,33[H  ]| ~~ All music.   
017:055,34[B  ]| ~~ But you cannot distinguish one air from another.   
017:055,35[H  ]| ~~ No$7$:  I can recognise some airs.  
017:055,36[B  ]| ~~ For$4$ instance? 
017:056,01[H  ]| ~~ I can recognise ""God save the Queen"".  
017:056,02[B  ]| ~~ Perhaps because all the people stand up$5$ and take off  
017:056,03[B  ]| their hats.   
017:056,04[H  ]| ~~ Well, admit that$3$ my ear is a little defective.   
017:056,05[B  ]| ~~ And your eyes? 
017:056,06[H  ]| ~~ They too.  
017:056,07[B  ]| ~~ Then how do you represent normal humanity.   
017:056,08[H  ]| ~~ In$4$ my manner of life.  
017:056,09[B  ]| ~~ Your wants and the manner in$4$ which$6#1$ you satisfy them, 
017:056,10[B  ]| is it? 
017:056,11[H  ]| ~~ Exactly.  
017:056,12[B  ]| ~~ And what are your wants? 
017:056,13[H  ]| ~~ Air and food.  
017:056,14[B  ]| ~~ Have you any subsidiary ones? 
017:056,15[H  ]| ~~ The acquisition of knowledge.   
017:056,16[B  ]| ~~ And you need also religious comforts? 
017:056,17[H  ]| ~~ Maybe so$5#2$ ~~ at times.  
017:056,18[B  ]| ~~ And women ~~ at times? 
017:056,19[H  ]| ~~ Never! 
017:056,20['  ]| This last word was uttered with a moral snap of the jaws  
017:056,21['  ]| and in$4$ such a business-like tone of voice that$6#1$ Stephen burst  
017:056,22['  ]| out into a fit of loud laughter.  As for$4$ the fact, though he  
017:056,23['  ]| was very suspicious in$4$ this matter, Stephen was inclined to$9$  
017:056,24['  ]| believe in$4$ McCann's chastity and much as he disliked it he  
017:056,25['  ]| chose to$9$ contemplate it rather than the contrary phenomenon.   
017:056,26['  ]| He almost trembled to$9$ think of that$6#2$ unhorizoned  
017:056,27['  ]| doggedness working its way backwards.   
017:056,28['  ]| McCann's insistence on$4$ a righteous life and his condemnation  
017:056,29['  ]| of licence as a sin against the future both annoyed  
017:056,30['  ]| and stung Stephen.  It annoyed him because it savoured so$5#1$  
017:056,31['  ]| strongly of \7paterfamilias\ and it stung him because it seemed  
017:056,32['  ]| to$9$ judge him incapable of that$6#2$ part.  In$4$ McCann's mouth 
017:056,33['  ]| he considered it unjust and unnatural and he fell back on$4$ a  
017:056,34['  ]| sentence of Bacon's.  
017:056,34[Z  ]| The care of posterity, 
017:056,34['  ]| he quoted, 
017:056,34[Z  ]| is  
017:056,35[Z  ]| greatest in$4$ them that$6#1$ have no$2$ posterity:  and for$4$ the rest he  
017:056,36[Z  ]| said that$3$ he 
017:056,36[YB ]| could not understand what right the future 
017:057,01[YB ]| had to$9$ hinder him from any passionate exertions in$4$ the  
017:057,02[YB ]| present.  
017:057,03[H  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is not the teaching of Ibsen, 
017:057,03['  ]| said McCann.  
017:057,04[B  ]| ~~ Teaching! 
017:057,04['  ]| cried Stephen.  
017:057,05[H  ]| ~~ The moral of \Ghosts\ is just the opposite of what you say.   
017:057,06[B  ]| ~~ Bah! You regard a play as a scientific document.  
017:057,07[H  ]| ~~ \Ghosts\ teaches self repression.  
017:057,08[B  ]| ~~ O Jesus! 
017:057,08['  ]| said Stephen in$4$ agony.  
017:057,09[H  ]| ~~ This is my lodging, 
017:057,09['  ]| said McCann, halting at the gate.   
017:057,10[H  ]| I must go in$5$.  
017:057,11[B  ]| ~~ You have connected Ibsen and Eno's fruit salt forever  
017:057,12[B  ]| in$4$ my mind, 
017:057,12['  ]| said Stephen.  
017:057,13[H  ]| ~~ Daedalus, 
017:057,13['  ]| said the Auditor crisply, 
017:057,13[H  ]| you are a good fellow  
017:057,14[H  ]| but you have yet to$9$ learn the dignity of altruism and the  
017:057,15[H  ]| responsibility of the human individual.  
017:057,16['  ]| Stephen had decided to$9$ address himself to$4$ Madden to$9$  
017:057,17['  ]| ascertain where Miss*Clery was to$9$ be found.  He  
017:057,18['  ]| set about this task carefully.  Madden and he were often  
017:057,19['  ]| together but their conversations were rarely serious and though 
017:057,20['  ]| the rustic mind of one was very forcibly impressed  
017:057,21['  ]| by$4$ the metropolitanism of the other both young men were  
017:057,22['  ]| on$4$ relations of affectionate familiarity.  Madden who$6#1$ had  
017:057,23['  ]| previously tried in$4$ vain to$9$ infect Stephen with nationalistic 
017:057,24['  ]| fever was surprised to$9$ hear these overtures of his friend.  He  
017:057,25['  ]| was delighted at the prospect of making such a convert and  
017:057,26['  ]| he began to$9$ appeal eloquently to$4$ the sense of justice.  Stephen  
017:057,27['  ]| allowed his critical faculty a rest.  The so-desired community  
017:057,28['  ]| for$4$ the realizing of the which$6#1$ Madden sought to$9$ engage his  
017:057,29['  ]| personal force seemed to$4$ him anything but ideal and the  
017:057,30['  ]| liberation which$6#1$ would have satisfied Madden would by$4$ no$2$  
017:057,31['  ]| means have satisfied him.  The Roman, not the Sassenach, 
017:057,32['  ]| was for$4$ him the tyrant of the islanders:  and so$5#1$ deeply had  
017:057,33['  ]| the tyranny eaten into all souls that$3$ the intelligence, first  
017:057,34['  ]| overborne so$5#1$ arrogantly, was now eager to$9$ prove that$6#2$  
017:057,35['  ]| arrogance its friend.  The watchcry was Faith and Fatherland, 
017:057,36['  ]| a sacred word in$4$ that$3$ the world of cleverly inflammable  
017:058,01['  ]| enthusiasms.  With literal obedience and with annual doles  
017:058,02['  ]| the Irish bid eagerly for$4$ the honour which$6#1$ was studiously  
017:058,03['  ]| withheld from them to$9$ be given to$4$ nations which$6#1$ in$4$ the  
017:058,04['  ]| past, as in$4$ the present, had never bent the knee but in$4$  
017:058,05['  ]| defiance.  While the multitude of preachers assured  
017:058,06['  ]| them that$3$ high honours were on$4$ the way and encouraged  
017:058,07['  ]| them ever to$9$ hope.  The last should be first, according to$4$ the  
017:058,08['  ]| Christian sentiment, and whosoever humbled himself, 
017:058,09['  ]| exalted and in$4$ reward for$4$ several centuries of obscure  
017:058,10['  ]| fidelity the Pope's Holiness had presented a tardy  
017:058,11['  ]| cardinal to$4$ an island which$6#1$ was for$4$ him, perhaps, only the  
017:058,12['  ]| afterthought of Europe.  
017:058,13['  ]| Madden was prepared to$9$ admit the truth of much of this  
017:058,14['  ]| but he gave Stephen to$9$ understand that$3$ the new movement  
017:058,15['  ]| was politic.  If the least infidelity were hoisted on$4$ the standard  
017:058,16['  ]| the people would not flock to$4$ it and for$4$ this reason the  
017:058,17['  ]| promoters desired as far as possible to$9$ work hand in$4$ hand with  
017:058,18['  ]| the priests.  Stephen objected that$3$ this working hand in$4$ hand  
017:058,19['  ]| with the priests had over and over again ruined the chances  
017:058,20['  ]| of revolutions.  Madden agreed but now at least the priests  
017:058,21['  ]| were on$4$ the side of the people.   
017:058,22[B  ]| ~~ Do you not see, 
017:058,22['  ]| said Stephen, 
017:058,22[B  ]| that$3$ they encourage the  
017:058,23[B  ]| study of Irish that$3$ their flocks may be more safely protected  
017:058,24[B  ]| from the wolves of disbelief; they consider it is an opportunity  
017:058,25[B  ]| to$9$ withdraw the people into a past of literal, implicit  
017:058,26[B  ]| faith? 
017:058,27[H  ]| ~~ But really our peasant has nothing to$9$ gain from English  
017:058,28[H  ]| Literature.  
017:058,29[B  ]| ~~ Rubbish! 
017:058,30[H  ]| ~~ Modern at least.  You yourself are always railing ~~  
017:058,31[B  ]| ~~ English is the medium for$4$ the Continent.  
017:058,32[H  ]| ~~ We want an Irish Ireland.  
017:058,33[B  ]| ~~ It seems to$4$ me you do not care what banality a man  
017:058,34[B  ]| expresses so$5#1$ long as he expresses it in$4$ Irish.  
017:059,01[H  ]| ~~ I do not entirely agree with your modern notions.  We  
017:059,02[H  ]| want to$9$ have nothing of this English civilisation.  
017:059,03[B  ]| ~~ But the civilisation of which$6#1$ you speak is not English ~~  
017:059,04[B  ]| it is Aryan.  The modern notions are not English; they  
017:059,05[B  ]| point the way of Aryan civilisation.  
017:059,06[H  ]| ~~ You want our peasants to$9$ ape the gross materialism of  
017:059,07[H  ]| the Yorkshire peasant? 
017:059,08[B  ]| ~~ One would imagine the country was inhabited by$4$  
017:059,09[B  ]| cherubim.  Damme if I see much difference in$4$ peasants:  they  
017:059,10[B  ]| all seem to$4$ me as like$4$ one another as a peascod is like$4$ another  
017:059,11[B  ]| peascod.  The Yorkshireman is perhaps better fed.  
017:059,12[H  ]| ~~ Of course you despise the peasant because you live in$4$ the  
017:059,13[H  ]| city.  
017:059,14[B  ]| ~~ I do not despise his office in$4$ the least.  
017:059,15[H  ]| ~~ But you despise him ~~ he is not clever enough for$4$ you.  
017:059,16[B  ]| ~~ Now, you know, Madden, that$6#2$ is nonsense.  To$4$ begin  
017:059,17[B  ]| with he is as cute as a fox ~~ try to$9$ pass a false coin on$4$ him and  
017:059,18[B  ]| you will$1$ see.  But his cleverness is all of a low order.  I really  
017:059,19[B  ]| do not think that$3$ the Irish peasant represents a very  
017:059,20[B  ]| admirable type of culture.   
017:059,21[H  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is you all out!  Of course you sneer at him because  
017:059,22[H  ]| he is not up-to-date and lives a simple life.  
017:059,23[B  ]| ~~ Yes, a life of dull routine ~~ the calculation of coppers, 
017:059,24[B  ]| the weekly debauch and the weekly piety ~~ a life lived in$4$  
017:059,25[B  ]| cunning and fear between the shadows of the parish chapel  
017:059,26[B  ]| and the asylum! 
017:059,27[H  ]| ~~ The life of a great city like$4$ London seems to$4$ you better?   
017:059,28[B  ]| ~~ The intelligence of an English city is not  
017:059,29[B  ]| perhaps at a very high level but at least it is higher than the  
017:059,30[B  ]| mental swamp of the Irish peasant.  
017:059,31[H  ]| ~~ And what about the two as moral beings? 
017:059,32[B  ]| ~~ Well? 
017:059,33[H  ]| ~~ The Irish are noted for$4$ at least one virtue all the world  
017:059,34[H  ]| over.  
017:059,35[B  ]| ~~ Oho!  I know what is coming now! 
017:059,36[H  ]| ~~ But it is a fact ~~ they are chaste.  
017:060,01[B  ]| ~~ To$9$ be sure.  
017:060,02[H  ]| ~~ You like$1$ to$9$ run down your own people at every hand's  
017:060,03[H  ]| turn but you can not accuse them ~~  
017:060,04[B  ]| ~~ Very good:  you are partly right.  I fully recognise that$3$  
017:060,05[B  ]| my countrymen have not yet advanced as far as the  
017:060,06[B  ]| machinery of Parisian harlotry because ~~  
017:060,07[H  ]| ~~ Because ~~ ?   
017:060,08[B  ]| ~~ Well, because they can do it by$4$ hand, that$6#2$ is why! 
017:060,09[H  ]| ~~ Good God, you do not mean to$9$ say you think ~~  
017:060,10[B  ]| ~~ My good youth, I know what I am saying is true and so$5#2$  
017:060,11[B  ]| do you know it.  Ask Father*Pat and ask Dr*Thisbody and  
017:060,12[B  ]| ask Dr*Thatbody.  I was at school and you were at school ~~  
017:060,13[B  ]| and that$6#2$ is enough about it.  
017:060,14[H  ]| ~~ O, Daedalus! 
017:060,15['  ]| This accusation laid a silence on$4$ the conversation.  Then  
017:060,16['  ]| Madden spoke: 
017:060,17[H  ]| ~~ Well, if these are your ideas I do not see what you want  
017:060,18[H  ]| coming to$4$ me and talking about learning Irish.  
017:060,19[B  ]| ~~ I would like$1$ to$9$ learn it ~~ as a language, 
017:060,19['  ]| said Stephen  
017:060,20['  ]| lyingly.  
017:060,20[B  ]| At least I would like$1$ to$9$ see first.  
017:060,21[H  ]| ~~ So$5#2$ you admit you are an Irishman after all and not one  
017:060,22[H  ]| of the red garrison.  
017:060,23[B  ]| ~~ Of course I do.  
017:060,24[H  ]| ~~ And do not you think that$3$ every Irishman worthy of the  
017:060,25[H  ]| name should be able to$9$ speak his native tongue? 
017:060,26[B  ]| ~~ I really do not know.  
017:060,27[H  ]| ~~ And do not you think that$3$ we as a race have a right to$9$ be  
017:060,28[H  ]| free? 
017:060,29[B  ]| ~~ O, do not ask me such questions, Madden.  You can use  
017:060,30[B  ]| these phrases of the platform but I can not.   
017:060,31[H  ]| ~~ But surely you have some political opinions, man! 
017:060,32[B  ]| ~~ I am going to$9$ think them out.  I am an artist, do not you  
017:060,33[B  ]| see?  Do you believe that$3$ I am? 
017:060,34[H  ]| ~~ O, yes, I know you are.  
017:060,35[B  ]| ~~ Very well then, how the devil can you expect me to$9$  
017:060,36[B  ]| settle everything all at once?  Give me time.  
017:061,01['  ]| So$5#2$ it was decided that$3$ Stephen was to$9$ begin a course of  
017:061,02['  ]| lessons in$4$ Irish.  He bought the O'Growney's primers published  
017:061,03['  ]| by$4$ the Gaelic*League but refused either to$9$ pay a subscription  
017:061,04['  ]| to$4$ the League or to$9$ wear the badge in$4$ his buttonhole.   
017:061,05['  ]| He had found out what he had desired, namely, the  
017:061,06['  ]| class in$4$ which$6#1$ Miss*Clery was.  People at home did not seem  
017:061,07['  ]| opposed to$4$ this new freak of his.  Mr*Casey taught him a  
017:061,08['  ]| few Southern songs in$4$ Irish and always raised his glass to$4$  
017:061,09['  ]| Stephen saying 
017:061,09[X  ]| ""Sinn*Fein"" 
017:061,09['  ]| instead of ""Good*Health"".  Mrs*Daedalus  
017:061,10['  ]| was probably pleased for$3$ she thought that$3$ the  
017:061,11['  ]| superintendence of priests and the society of harmless enthusiasts  
017:061,12['  ]| might succeed in$4$ influencing her son in$4$ the right  
017:061,13['  ]| direction:  she had begun to$9$ fear for$4$ him.  Maurice said  
017:061,14['  ]| nothing and asked no$2$ questions.  He did not understand  
017:061,15['  ]| what made his brother associate with the patriots and he did  
017:061,16['  ]| not believe that$3$ the study of Irish seemed in$4$ any way useful  
017:061,17['  ]| to$4$ Stephen:  but he was silent and waited.  Mr*Daedalus  
017:061,18['  ]| said that$3$ 
017:061,18[J  ]| he did not mind his son's learning the language so$5#1$  
017:061,19[J  ]| long as it did not keep him from his legitimate work.  
017:061,20['  ]| One evening when Maurice came back from school he  
017:061,21['  ]| brought with him the news that$3$ the retreat would begin in$4$  
017:061,22['  ]| three days' time.  This news suddenly delivered showed  
017:061,23['  ]| Stephen his position.  He could hardly believe that$3$ in$4$ a year  
017:061,24['  ]| his point of view had changed so$5#1$ completely.  Only twelve  
017:061,25['  ]| months ago he had been clamouring for$4$ forgiveness and  
017:061,26['  ]| promising endless penances.  He could hardly believe that$3$  
017:061,27['  ]| it was no$2$ other than he who$6#1$ had clung so$5#1$ fiercely to$4$ the sole  
017:061,28['  ]| means of salvation which$6#1$ the Church vouchsafes to$4$ her guilty  
017:061,29['  ]| children.  He marvelled at the terror which$6#1$ had then possessed  
017:061,30['  ]| him.  One evening during the retreat he asked his  
017:061,31['  ]| brother what kind of sermons the priest was giving.  The two  
017:061,32['  ]| were standing together looking into the window of a stationer's  
017:061,33['  ]| shop and it was a picture of S%*Anthony in$4$ the  
017:061,34['  ]| window which$6#1$ had led to$4$ the question.  Maurice smiled  
017:061,35['  ]| broadly as he answered: 
017:061,36[K  ]| ~~ Hell to-day.   
017:062,01[B  ]| ~~ And what kind of sermon was it? 
017:062,02[K  ]| ~~ Usual kind of thing.  Stink in$4$ the morning and pain of  
017:062,03[K  ]| loss in$4$ the evening.   
017:062,04['  ]| Stephen laughed and looked at the square-shouldered boy  
017:062,05['  ]| beside him.  Maurice announced facts in$4$ a dry satirical voice  
017:062,06['  ]| and his cloudy complexion did not change colour when he  
017:062,07['  ]| laughed.  He made Stephen think of the pictures in$4$ ""Silas*Verney"".   
017:062,08['  ]| His sombre gravity, his careful cleansing of his  
017:062,09['  ]| much-worn clothes, and the premature disillusionment of  
017:062,10['  ]| his manner all suggested the human vesture of some spiritual  
017:062,11['  ]| or philosophic problem transplanted from Holland.  Stephen  
017:062,12['  ]| did not know in$4$ what stage the problem was and he thought  
017:062,13['  ]| it wiser to$9$ allow it its own path of solution.   
017:062,14[K  ]| ~~ Do you know what the priest told us also?  
017:062,14['  ]| asked Maurice  
017:062,15['  ]| after a pause.  
017:062,16[B  ]| ~~ What? 
017:062,17[K  ]| ~~ He said 
017:062,17[YX ]| we were not to$9$ have companions.  
017:062,18[B  ]| ~~ Companions? 
017:062,19[YX ]| ~~ That$3$ we were not to$9$ go for$4$ walks in$4$ the evenings with  
017:062,20[YX ]| any special companions.  If we wanted to$9$ take a walk, 
017:062,20[K  ]| he  
017:062,21[K  ]| said, 
017:062,21[YX ]| a lot of us were to$9$ go together.        
017:062,22['  ]| Stephen halted in$4$ the street and struck the palms of his  
017:062,23['  ]| hands together.   
017:062,24[K  ]| ~~ What's up$5$ with you?  
017:062,24['  ]| said Maurice.  
017:062,25[B  ]| ~~ I know what's up$5$ with them, 
017:062,25['  ]| said Stephen.  
017:062,25[B  ]| They are  
017:062,26[B  ]| afraid.  
017:062,27[K  ]| ~~ Of course they are afraid, 
017:062,27['  ]| said Maurice gravely.  
017:062,28[B  ]| ~~ By*the*by of course you have made the retreat? 
017:062,29[K  ]| ~~ O, yes.  I am going to$4$ the altar in$4$ the morning.   
017:062,30[B  ]| ~~ Are you really? 
017:062,31[K  ]| ~~ Tell the truth, Stephen.  When mother gives you the  
017:062,32[K  ]| money on$4$ Sunday to$9$ go in$5$ to$4$ short twelve in$4$ Marlboro'*Street  
017:062,33[K  ]| do you really go to$4$ Mass? 
017:062,34['  ]| Stephen coloured slightly.  
017:062,35[B  ]| ~~ Why do you ask that$6#2$? 
017:062,36[K  ]| ~~ Tell the truth.  
017:063,01[B  ]| ~~ No$7$ ~~ I do not.  
017:063,02[K  ]| ~~ And where do you go? 
017:063,03[B  ]| ~~ O anywhere ~~ about the town.  
017:063,04[K  ]| ~~ So$5#2$ I thought.  
017:063,05[B  ]| ~~ You are a 'cute fellow, 
017:063,05['  ]| said Stepehn in$4$ a sidewise  
017:063,06['  ]| fashion.  
017:063,06[B  ]| Might I ask do you go to$4$ mass yourself? 
017:063,07[K  ]| ~~ O, yes, 
017:063,07['  ]| said Maurice.  
017:063,08['  ]| They walked on$5$ for$4$ a short time in$4$ silence.  Then  
017:063,09['  ]| Maurice said: 
017:063,10[K  ]| ~~ I have bad hearing.  
017:063,11['  ]| Stephen made no$2$ remark.  
017:063,12[K  ]| ~~ And I think I must be a little stupid.  
017:063,13[B  ]| ~~ How is that$6#2$? 
017:063,14['  ]| In$4$ his heart Stephen felt that$3$ he was condemning his brother.   
017:063,15['  ]| In$4$ this instance he could not admit that$3$ freedom from strict  
017:063,16['  ]| religious influences was desirable.  It seemed to$4$ him that$3$  
017:063,17['  ]| anyone who$6#1$ could contemplate the condition of his soul in$4$  
017:063,18['  ]| such a prosaic manner was not worthy of freedom and was  
017:063,19['  ]| fit only for$4$ the severest shackles of the Church.  
017:063,20[K  ]| ~~ Well to-day the priest was telling us a true story.  It  
017:063,21[K  ]| was about the death of the drunkard.  The priest came in$5$ to$9$  
017:063,22[K  ]| see him and talked to$4$ him and asked him 
017:063,22[YX ]| to$9$ say he was sorry  
017:063,23[YX ]| and to$9$ promise to$9$ give up$5$ drink.  The man felt that$3$ he  
017:063,24[YX ]| was going to$9$ die in$4$ a few moments but he sat upright in$4$ bed, 
017:063,25[YX ]| the priest said, and pulled out a black bottle from under the  
017:063,26[YX ]| bedclothes ~~  
017:063,27[B  ]| ~~ Well? 
017:063,28[K  ]| ~~ and said 
017:063,28[X  ]| ""Father, if this was to$9$ be the last I was ever to$9$  
017:063,29[X  ]| drink in$4$ this world I must drink it.""   
017:063,30[B  ]| ~~ Well? 
017:063,31[YX ]| ~~ So$5#2$ he drained the bottle dry.  That$6#2$ very moment he  
017:063,32[YX ]| dropped dead, 
017:063,32[K  ]| said the priest lowering his voice.  
017:063,32[X  ]| ""That$6#2$ man  
017:063,33[X  ]| fell dead in$4$ the bed, stone dead.  He died and went ~~ ."" 
017:063,33[K  ]| He  
017:063,34[K  ]| spoke so$5#1$ low that$3$ I could not hear but I wanted to$9$ know where  
017:063,35[K  ]| the man went so$3$ I leaned forward to$9$ hear and hit my nose a  
017:063,36[K  ]| wallop against the bench in$4$ front.  While I was rubbing it  
017:064,01[K  ]| the fellows knelt down to$9$ say the prayer so$3$ I did not hear where  
017:064,02[K  ]| he went.  Am not I stupid? 
017:064,03['  ]| Stephen exploded in$4$ laughter.  He laughed so$5#1$ loudly that$3$  
017:064,04['  ]| the people who$6#1$ were passing turned to$9$ look at him and had  
017:064,05['  ]| to$9$ smile themselves by$4$ attraction.  He put his hands to$4$ his  
017:064,06['  ]| sides and the tears almost fell out of his eyes.  Every glimpse  
017:064,07['  ]| he caught of Maurice's solemn olive-coloured face set him  
017:064,08['  ]| off on$4$ a new burst.  He could say nothing between times  
017:064,09['  ]| but ~~ 
017:064,09[B  ]| ""I'd have given anything to$9$ have seen it ~~ "Father, if  
017:064,10[B  ]| this was the last" ~~ and you with your mouth open.  I'd  
017:064,11[B  ]| have given anything to$9$ have seen it.   
017:064,12['  ]| The Irish class was held every Wednesday night in$4$ a  
017:064,13['  ]| back room on$4$ the second floor of a house in$4$ O'Connell*St.   
017:064,14['  ]| The class consisted of six young men and three young women.   
017:064,15['  ]| The teacher was a young man in$4$ spectacles with a very sick-looking  
017:064,16['  ]| face and a very crooked mouth.  He spoke in$4$ a high-pitched  
017:064,17['  ]| voice and with a cutting Northern accent.  He never  
017:064,18['  ]| lost an opportunity of sneering at seoninism and at those  
017:064,19['  ]| who$6#1$ would not learn their native tongue.  He said that$3$ 
017:064,20['  ]| Beurla was the language of commerce and Irish the speech  
017:064,21['  ]| of the soul 
017:064,21[YX ]| and he had two witticisms which$6#1$ always made his  
017:064,22[YX ]| class laugh.  One was the 
017:064,22[X  ]| ""Almighty*Dollar"" 
017:064,22['  ]| and the other  
017:064,23['  ]| was the 
017:064,23[X  ]| ""Spiritual*Saxon"".  
017:064,23['  ]| Everyone regarded Mr*Hughes as  
017:064,24['  ]| a great enthusiast and some thought he had a great career  
017:064,25['  ]| before him as an orator.  On$4$ Friday nights when there was  
017:064,26['  ]| a public meeting of the League he often spoke but as he did  
017:064,27['  ]| not know enough Irish he always excused himself at the  
017:064,28['  ]| beginning of his speech for$4$ having to$9$ speak to$4$ the audience  
017:064,29['  ]| in$4$ the language of the 
017:064,29[X  ]| ""Spiritual*Saxon"".  
017:064,29['  ]| At the end  
017:064,30['  ]| of every speech he quoted a piece of verse.  He scoffed very  
017:064,31['  ]| much at Trinity* College and at the Irish*Parliamentary*Party.   
017:064,32['  ]| He could not regard as patriots men who$6#1$ had taken  
017:064,33['  ]| oaths of allegiance to$4$ the Queen*of*England and he could  
017:064,34['  ]| not regard as a national university an institution which$6#1$ did  
017:065,01['  ]| not express the religious convictions of the majority of the  
017:065,02['  ]| Irish people.  His speeches were always loudly applauded  
017:065,03['  ]| and Stephen heard some of the audience say that$3$ they were  
017:065,04['  ]| sure he would be a great success at the bar.  On$4$ enquiry, 
017:065,05['  ]| Stephen found that$3$ Hughes, who$6#1$ was the son of a Nationalist 
017:065,06['  ]| solicitor in$4$ Armagh, was a law-student at the King's*Inns.   
017:065,07['  ]| The Irish class which$6#1$ Stephen attended was held in$4$ a very  
017:065,08['  ]| sparely furnished room lit by$4$ a gasjet which$6#1$ had a  
017:065,09['  ]| broken globe.  Over the mantelpiece hung the picture of a  
017:065,10['  ]| priest with a beard who$6#1$, Stephen found, was Father*O'Growney.  
017:065,11['  ]| It was a beginners' class and its progress was retarded  
017:065,12['  ]| by$4$ the stupidity of two of the young men.  The others in$4$ the  
017:065,13['  ]| class learned quickly and worked very hard Stephen found  
017:065,14['  ]| it very troublesome to$9$ pronounce the gutturals but  
017:065,15['  ]| he did the best he could.  The class was very serious and  
017:065,16['  ]| patriotic.  The only time Stephen found it inclined to$4$ levity  
017:065,17['  ]| was at the lesson which$6#1$ introduced the word ""gradh"".  The  
017:065,18['  ]| three young women laughed and the two stupid young men  
017:065,19['  ]| laughed, finding something very funny in$4$ the Irish word for$4$  
017:065,20['  ]| ""love"" or perhaps in$4$ the notion itself.  But Mr*Hughes and  
017:065,21['  ]| the other three young men and Stephen were all very grave.   
017:065,22['  ]| When the excitement of the word had passed Stephen's 
017:065,23['  ]| attention was attracted to$4$ the younger of the stupid young  
017:065,24['  ]| men who$6#1$ as still blushing violently.  His blush continued  
017:065,25['  ]| for$4$ such a long time that$3$ Stephen began to$9$ feel nervous.   
017:065,26['  ]| The young man grew more and more confused and what was 
017:065,27['  ]| worst was that$3$ he was making all this confusion for$4$ himself for$3$  
017:065,28['  ]| no-one in$4$ the class but Stephen seemed to$9$ have noticed him.   
017:065,29['  ]| He continued so$5#2$ till the end of the hour never once daring  
017:065,30['  ]| to$9$ raise his eyes from his book and when he had occasion to$9$  
017:065,31['  ]| use his handkerchief he did so$5#1$ stealthily with his left hand.   
017:065,32['  ]| The meetings on$4$ Friday nights were public and were  
017:065,33['  ]| largely patronised by$4$ priests.  The organisers brought in$4$  
017:065,34['  ]| reports from different districts and the priests made speeches  
017:065,35['  ]| of exhortation.  Two young men would then be called on$5$ for$4$  
017:065,36['  ]| songs in$4$ Irish and when it was time for$4$ the whole company  
017:066,01['  ]| to$9$ break up$5$ all would rise and sing the Rallying-Song.  The  
017:066,02['  ]| young women would then begin to$9$ chatter while their  
017:066,03['  ]| cavaliers helped them into their jackets.  A very stout black-bearded  
017:066,04['  ]| citizen who$6#1$ always wore a wideawake hat and a  
017:066,05['  ]| long bright green muffler was a constant figure at these  
017:066,06['  ]| meetings.  When the company was going home he was  
017:066,07['  ]| usually to$9$ be seen surrounded by$4$ a circle of young men  
017:066,08['  ]| who$6#1$ looked very meagre about his bulk.  He had the voice  
017:066,09['  ]| of an ox and he could be heard at a great distance, criticising, 
017:066,10['  ]| denouncing and scoffing.  His circle was the separatist  
017:066,11['  ]| centre and in$4$ it reigned the irreconcilable temper.  It had its  
017:066,12['  ]| headquarters in$4$ Cooney's tobacco-shop where the members  
017:066,13['  ]| sat every evening in$4$ the ""Divan"" talking Irish loudly and  
017:066,14['  ]| smoking churchwardens.  To$4$ this circle Madden who$6#1$ was the  
017:066,15['  ]| captain of a club of hurley-players reported the muscular 
017:066,16['  ]| condition of the young irreconcilables under his charge and  
017:066,17['  ]| the editor of the weekly journal of the irreconcilable party  
017:066,18['  ]| reported any signs of Philocelticism which$6#1$ he had observed  
017:066,19['  ]| in$4$ the Paris newspapers.   
017:066,20['  ]| By$4$ all this society liberty was held to$9$ be the chief desirable;  
017:066,21['  ]| the members of it were fierce democrats.  The liberty they  
017:066,22['  ]| desired for$4$ themselves was mainly a liberty of costume and  
017:066,23['  ]| vocabulary:  and Stephen could hardly understand how such a  
017:066,24['  ]| poor scarecrow of liberty could bring serious human 
017:066,25['  ]| beings to$4$ their knees in$4$ worship.  As in$4$ the Daniels' household  
017:066,26['  ]| he had seen people playing at being important so$3$ here  
017:066,27['  ]| he saw people playing at being free.  He saw that$3$ many  
017:066,28['  ]| political absurdities arose from the lack of a just sense of  
017:066,29['  ]| comparison in$4$ public men.  The orators of this patriotic  
017:066,30['  ]| party were not ashamed to$9$ cite the precedents of Switzerland  
017:066,31['  ]| and France.  The intelligent centres of the movement were  
017:066,32['  ]| so$5#1$ scantily supplied that$3$ the analogies they gave out as  
017:066,33['  ]| exact and potent were really analogies built haphazard  
017:067,01['  ]| upon$4$ very inexact knowledge.  The cry of a solitary Frenchman  
017:067,02['  ]| (9A 9bas 9l'Angleterre!) at a Celtic re-union in$4$ Paris  
017:067,03['  ]| would be made by$4$ these enthusiasts the subject of a leading 
017:067,04['  ]| article in$4$ which$6#1$ would be shown the imminence of aid  
017:067,05['  ]| for$4$ Ireland from the French*Government.  A glowing example  
017:067,06['  ]| was to$9$ be found for$4$ Ireland in$4$ the case of Hungary, an  
017:067,07['  ]| example, as these patriots imagined, of long-suffering  
017:067,08['  ]| minority, entitled by$4$ every right of race and justice to$4$ a  
017:067,09['  ]| separate freedom, finally emancipating itself.  In$4$ emulation  
017:067,10['  ]| of that$6#2$ achievement bodies of young Gaels conflicted murderously  
017:067,11['  ]| in$4$ the Phoenix*Park with whacking hurley-sticks, thrice 
017:067,12['  ]| armed in$4$ their just quarrel since their revolution had been  
017:067,13['  ]| blessed for$4$ them by$4$ the Anointed, and the same bodies were  
017:067,14['  ]| set aflame with indignation by$4$ the unwelcome presence  
017:067,15['  ]| of any young sceptic who$6#1$ was aware of the capable aggressions 
017:067,16['  ]| of the Magyars upon$4$ the Latin and Slav and Teutonic  
017:067,17['  ]| populations, greater than themselves in$4$ number, which$6#1$ are  
017:067,18['  ]| politically allied to$4$ them, and in$4$ the potency of a single  
017:067,19['  ]| regiment of infantry to$9$ hold in$4$ check a town of twenty  
017:067,20['  ]| thousand inhabitants.   
017:067,21['  ]| Stephen said one day to$4$ Madden: 
017:067,22[B  ]| ~~ I suppose these hurley-matches and walking tours are  
017:067,23[B  ]| preparations for$4$ the great event.  
017:067,24[F  ]| ~~ There is more going on$5$ in$4$ Ireland at present than you  
017:067,25[F  ]| are aware of.  
017:067,26[B  ]| ~~ But what use are cama`ns? 
017:067,27[F  ]| ~~ Well, you see, we want to$9$ raise the physique of the  
017:067,28[F  ]| country.  
017:067,29['  ]| Stephen meditated for$4$ a moment and then he said: 
017:067,30[B  ]| ~~ It seems to$4$ me that$3$ the English*Government is very good  
017:067,31[B  ]| to$4$ you in$4$ this matter.  
017:067,32[F  ]| ~~ How is that$6#2$ may I ask? 
017:067,33[B  ]| ~~ The English*Government will$1$ take you every summer  
017:067,34[B  ]| in$4$ batches to$4$ different militia camps, train you to$4$ the use of  
017:067,35[B  ]| modern weapons, drill you, feed you and pay you and then  
017:068,01[B  ]| send you home again when the manoeuvres are over.   
017:068,02[F  ]| ~~ Well? 
017:068,03[B  ]| ~~ Would not that$6#2$ be better for$4$ your young men than  
017:068,04[B  ]| hurley-practice in$4$ the Park? 
017:068,05[F  ]| ~~ Do you mean to$9$ say you want young Gaelic*Leaguers to$9$  
017:068,06[F  ]| wear the redcoat and take an oath of allegiance to$4$ the Queen  
017:068,07[F  ]| and take her shilling too? 
017:068,08[B  ]| ~~ Look at your friend, Hughes.  
017:068,09[F  ]| ~~ What about him? 
017:068,10[B  ]| ~~ One of these days he will$1$ be a barrister, a Q%*C%, perhaps  
017:068,11[B  ]| a judge ~~ and yet he sneers at the Parliamentary*Party  
017:068,12[B  ]| because they take an oath of allegiance.  
017:068,13[F  ]| ~~ Law is law all the world over ~~ there must be someone  
017:068,14[F  ]| to$9$ administer it, particularly here, where the people have  
017:068,15[F  ]| no$2$ friends in$4$ Court.  
017:068,16[B  ]| ~~ Bullets are bullets, too.  I do not quite follow the  
017:068,17[B  ]| distinction you make between administering English law  
017:068,18[B  ]| and administering English bullets:  there is the same oath of  
017:068,19[B  ]| allegiance for$4$ both professions.  
017:068,20[F  ]| ~~ Anyhow it is better for$4$ a man to$9$ follow a line of life  
017:068,21[F  ]| which$6#1$ civilisation regards as humane.  Better be a barrister  
017:068,22[F  ]| than a redcoat.  
017:068,23[B  ]| ~~ You consider the profession of arms a disreputable one.   
017:068,24[B  ]| Why then have you Sarsfield*Clubs, Hugh*O'Neill*Clubs, 
017:068,25[B  ]| Red*Hugh*Clubs? 
017:068,26[F  ]| ~~ O, fighting for$4$ freedom is different.  But it is quite  
017:068,27[F  ]| another matter to$9$ take service meanly under your tyrant, 
017:068,28[F  ]| to$9$ make yourself his slave.   
017:068,29[B  ]| ~~ And, tell me, how many of your Gaelic*Leaguers are  
017:068,30[B  ]| studying for$4$ the Second*Division and looking for$4$ advancement  
017:068,31[B  ]| in$4$ the Civil*Service? 
017:069,01[F  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is different.  They are only civil servants:  they are  
017:069,02[F  ]| not ~~  
017:069,03[B  ]| ~~ Civil be damned!  They are pledged to$4$ the Government, 
017:069,04[B  ]| and paid by$4$ the Government.  
017:069,05[F  ]| ~~ O, well, of course if you like$1$ to$9$ look at it that$6#2$ way ~~  
017:069,06[B  ]| ~~ And how many relatives of Gaelic*Leaguers are in$4$ the  
017:069,07[B  ]| police and the constabulary?  Even I know nearly ten of your  
017:069,08[B  ]| friends who$6#1$ are sons of Police inspectors.  
017:069,09[F  ]| ~~ It is unfair to$9$ accuse a man because his father was so-and-so.   
017:069,10[F  ]| A son and a father often have different ideas.   
017:069,11[B  ]| ~~ But Irishmen are fond of boasting that$3$ they are true to$4$  
017:069,12[B  ]| the traditions they receive in$4$ youth.  How faithful all you  
017:069,13[B  ]| fellows are to$4$ Mother*Church!  Why would you not be as  
017:069,14[B  ]| faithful to$4$ the tradition of the helmet as to$4$ that$6#2$ of the 
017:069,15[B  ]| tonsure? 
017:069,16[F  ]| ~~ We remain true to$4$ the Church because it is our national  
017:069,17[F  ]| Church, the Church our people have suffered for$5$ and would  
017:069,18[F  ]| suffer for$5$ again.  The police are different.  We look upon$4$  
017:069,19[F  ]| them as aliens, traitors, oppressors of the people.  
017:069,20[B  ]| ~~ The old peasant down the country does not seem to$9$ be of  
017:069,21[B  ]| your opinion when he counts over his greasy notes and says  
017:069,22[X  ]| ""I will$1$ put the priest on$4$ Tom and I will$1$ put the polisman on$4$  
017:069,23[X  ]| Mickey"".  
017:069,24[F  ]| ~~ I suppose you heard that$6#2$ sentence in$4$ some ""stage-Irishman""  
017:069,25[F  ]| play.  It is a libel on$4$ our countrymen.   
017:069,26[B  ]| ~~ No$7$, no$7$, it is Irish peasant wisdom:  he balances the  
017:069,27[B  ]| priest against the polisman and a very nice balance it is for$3$  
017:069,28[B  ]| they are both of good girth.  A compensative system! 
017:069,29[F  ]| ~~ No$2$ West-Briton could speak worse of his countrymen.   
017:069,30[F  ]| You are simply giving vent to$4$ old stale libels ~~ the drunken  
017:069,31[F  ]| Irishman, the baboon-faced Irishman that$6#1$ we see in$4$ \Punch\.   
017:069,32[B  ]| ~~ What I say I see about me.  The publicans and the  
017:069,33[B  ]| pawnbrokers who$6#1$ live on$4$ the miseries of the people spend  
017:069,34[B  ]| part of the money they make in$4$ sending their sons and  
017:070,01[B  ]| daughters into religion to$9$ pray for$4$ them.  One of your 
017:070,02[B  ]| professors in$4$ the Medical*School who$6#1$ teaches you Sanitary*Science  
017:070,03[B  ]| or Forensic*Medicine or something ~~ God knows  
017:070,04[B  ]| what ~~ is at the same time the landlord of a whole streetful  
017:070,05[B  ]| of brothels not a mile away from where we are standing.   
017:070,06[F  ]| ~~ Who$6#2$ told you that$6#2$? 
017:070,07[B  ]| ~~ A little robin-redbreast.  
017:070,08[F  ]| ~~ It is a lie! 
017:070,09[B  ]| ~~ Yes, it is a contradiction in$4$ terms, what I call a systematic  
017:070,10[B  ]| compensation.   
017:070,11['  ]| Stephen's conversations with the patriots were not all of  
017:070,12['  ]| this severe type.  Every Friday evening he met Miss*Clery, 
017:070,13['  ]| or, as he had now returned to$4$ the Christian name, Emma.   
017:070,14['  ]| She lived near Portobello and any evening that$6#1$ the meeting  
017:070,15['  ]| was over early she walked home.  She often delayed a long  
017:070,16['  ]| time chatting with a low-sized young priest, a Father*Moran, 
017:070,17['  ]| who$6#1$ had a neat head of curly black hair and expressive black  
017:070,18['  ]| eyes.  This young priest was a pianist and sang sentimental songs  
017:070,19['  ]| and was for$4$ many reasons a great favourite with the ladies.  
017:070,20['  ]| Stephen often watched Emma and Father*Moran.  Father*Moran, 
017:070,21['  ]| who$6#1$ sang tenor, had once complimented Stephen  
017:070,22['  ]| saying he 
017:070,22[YX ]| had heard many people speak highly of his voice  
017:070,23[YX ]| and hoping he would have the pleasure of hearing him some  
017:070,24[YX ]| time.  
017:070,24['  ]| Stephen had said the same thing to$4$ the priest adding  
017:070,25['  ]| that$3$ 
017:070,25[YB ]| Miss*Clery had told him great things of \his\ voice.  
017:070,25['  ]| At  
017:070,26['  ]| this the priest had smiled and looked archly at Stephen.  
017:070,26[X  ]| ""One  
017:070,27[X  ]| must not believe all the complimentary things the ladies  
017:070,28[X  ]| say of us"" 
017:070,28['  ]| he had said.  
017:070,28[X  ]| ""The ladies are a little given to$4$ ~~  
017:070,29[X  ]| what shall I say ~~ fibbing, I am afraid.""  
017:070,29['  ]| And here the priest  
017:070,30['  ]| had bit his lower rosy lip with two little white even teeth and  
017:070,31['  ]| smiled with his expressive eyes and altogether looked such  
017:070,32['  ]| a pleasant tender-hearted vulgarian that$3$ Stephen felt 
017:070,33['  ]| inclined to$9$ slap him on$4$ the back admiringly.  Stephen had  
017:070,34['  ]| continued talking for$4$ a few minutes and once when the  
017:070,35['  ]| conversation had touched on$4$ Irish matters the priest had  
017:070,36['  ]| become very serious and had said very piously 
017:070,36[X  ]| ""Ah, yes.  
017:071,01[X  ]| God bless the work!  
017:071,01['  ]| Father*Moran was 
017:071,01[YX ]| no$2$ lover of the old  
017:071,02[YX ]| droning chants, 
017:071,02['  ]| he told Stephen.  
017:071,02[YX ]| Of course, 
017:071,02['  ]| he said, 
017:071,02[X  ]| it is  
017:071,03[X  ]| very grand music severe style of  music.  
017:071,03[YX ]| But he held the  
017:071,04[YX ]| opinion that$3$ the Church must not be made too gloomy 
017:071,04['  ]| and he said  
017:071,05['  ]| with a charming smile that$3$ 
017:071,05[YX ]| the spirit of the Church  
017:071,06[YX ]| was not gloomy.  
017:071,06['  ]| He said that$3$ 
017:071,06[YX ]| one could not expect the people  
017:071,07[YX ]| to$9$ take kindly to$4$ severe music and that$3$ the people needed  
017:071,08[YX ]| more human religious music than the Gregorian 
017:071,08['  ]| and ended  
017:071,09['  ]| by$4$ advising Stephen to$9$ learn ""The*Holy*City"" by$4$ Adams.  
017:071,10[X  ]| ~~ There is a song now, beautiful, full of lovely melody and  
017:071,11[X  ]| yet ~~ religious.  It has the religious sentiment, a touching  
017:071,12[X  ]| melody, power ~~ soul, in$4$ fact.  
017:071,13['  ]| Stephen watching this young priest and Emma together  
017:071,14['  ]| usually worked himself into a state of unsettled rage.  It was  
017:071,15['  ]| not so$5#1$ much that$3$ he suffered personally as that$3$ the spectacle  
017:071,16['  ]| seemed to$4$ him typical of Irish ineffectualness.  Often he felt  
017:071,17['  ]| his fingers itch.  Father*Moran's eyes were so$5#1$ clear and  
017:071,18['  ]| tender-looking, Emma stood to$4$ his gaze in$4$ such a poise of  
017:071,19['  ]| bold careless pride of the flesh that$3$ Stephen longed to$9$  
017:071,20['  ]| precipitate the two into each other's arms and shock the  
017:071,21['  ]| room even though he knew the pain this impersonal  
017:071,22['  ]| generosity would cause himself.  Emma allowed him to$9$ see  
017:071,23['  ]| her home several times but she did not seem to$9$ have reserved  
017:071,24['  ]| herself for$4$ him.  The youth was piqued at this for$3$ above all  
017:071,25['  ]| things he hated to$9$ be compared with others and, had it not  
017:071,26['  ]| been that$3$ her body seemed so$5#1$ compact of pleasure, he would  
017:071,27['  ]| have preferred to$9$ have been ignominiously left behind.  Her  
017:071,28['  ]| loud forced manners shocked him at first until his mind had  
017:071,29['  ]| thoroughly mastered the stupidity of hers.  She criticized the  
017:071,30['  ]| Miss*Daniels very sharply, assuming, much to$4$ Stephen's discomfort, 
017:071,31['  ]| an identical temper in$4$ him.  She coquetted with  
017:071,32['  ]| knowledge, asking Stephen 
017:071,32[YW ]| could he not persuade the President  
017:071,33[YW ]| of his College to$9$ admit women to$4$ the college.  
017:071,33['  ]| Stephen 
017:071,34['  ]| told her 
017:071,34[YB ]| to$9$ apply to$4$ McCann who$6#1$ was the champion of  
017:071,35[YB ]| women.  
017:071,35['  ]| She laughed at this and said with genuine dismay  
017:071,36[W  ]| ""Well, honestly, is not he a dreadful-looking artist?""  
017:071,36['  ]| She  
017:072,01['  ]| treated femininely everything that$6#1$ young men are supposed 
017:072,02['  ]| to$9$ regard as serious but she made polite exception for$4$ Stephen  
017:072,03['  ]| himself and for$4$ the Gaelic Revival.  She asked him 
017:072,03[YW ]| was not  
017:072,04[YW ]| he reading a paper and what was it on$4$.  She would give anything  
017:072,05[YW ]| to$9$ go and hear him:  she was awfully fond of the theatre 
017:072,06[YW ]| herself and a gypsy woman had once read her hand and told  
017:072,07[YW ]| her she would be an actress.  She had been three times to$4$ the  
017:072,08[YW ]| pantomime and asked Stephen what he liked best in$4$ pantomime.   
017:072,09['  ]| Stephen said 
017:072,09[YB ]| he liked a good clown 
017:072,09['  ]| but she said that$3$ 
017:072,10[YW ]| she preferred ballets.  
017:072,10['  ]| Then 
017:072,10[XX ]| she wanted to$9$ know 
017:072,10[YW ]| did he go  
017:072,11[YW ]| out much to$4$ dances 
017:072,11['  ]| and pressed him 
017:072,11[YW ]| to$9$ join an Irish dancing-class  
017:072,12[YW ]| of which$6#1$ she was a member.  
017:072,12['  ]| Her eyes had begun to$9$  
017:072,13['  ]| imitate the expression of Father*Moran's ~~ an expression  
017:072,14['  ]| of tender significance when the conversation was at the  
017:072,15['  ]| lowest level of banality.  Often as he walked beside her  
017:072,16['  ]| Stephen wondered how she had employed her time since  
017:072,17['  ]| he had last seen her and congratulated himself that$3$ he  
017:072,18['  ]| had caught an impression of her when she was at her finest  
017:072,19['  ]| moment.  In$4$ his heart he deplored the change in$4$ her for$3$ he  
017:072,20['  ]| would have liked nothing so$5#1$ well as an adventure with her  
017:072,21['  ]| now but he felt that$3$ even that$6#2$ warm ample body could hardly  
017:072,22['  ]| compensate him for$4$ her distressing pertness and middle-class  
017:072,23['  ]| affectations.  In$4$ the centre of her attitude towards him he  
017:072,24['  ]| thought he discerned a point of defiant illwill and he thought  
017:072,25['  ]| he understood the cause of it.  He had swept the moment  
017:072,26['  ]| into his memory, the figure and the landscape into his  
017:072,27['  ]| treasure-room, and conjuring with all three had brought  
017:072,28['  ]| forth some pages of sorry vers.  One rainy night when the  
017:072,29['  ]| streets were too bad for$4$ walking she took the Rathmines tram  
017:072,30['  ]| at the Pillar and as she held down her hand to$4$ him from the  
017:072,31['  ]| step, thanking him for$4$ his kindess and wishing him good-night, 
017:072,32['  ]| that$6#2$ episode of their childhood seemed to$9$ magnetise  
017:072,33['  ]| the minds of both at the same instant.  The change of circumstances 
017:072,34['  ]| had reversed their positions, giving her the  
017:072,35['  ]| upper hand.  He took her hand caressingly, caressing one after  
017:072,36['  ]| another the three lines on$4$ the back of her kid glove and  
017:073,01['  ]| numbering her knuckles, caressing also his own past towards  
017:073,02['  ]| which$6#1$ this inconsisted hater of inheritances  
017:073,03['  ]| was always lenient.  They smiled at each other; and  
017:073,04['  ]| again in$4$ the centre of her amiableness he discerned a  
017:073,05['  ]| point of illwill and he suspected that$3$ by$4$ her code of honour  
017:073,06['  ]| she was obliged to$9$ insist on$4$ the forbearance of the male and  
017:073,07['  ]| to$9$ despise him for$4$ forbearing.   
018:074,01['  ]| STEPHEN'S paper was fixed for$4$ the second Saturday in$4$  
018:074,01['  ]| March.  Between Christmas and that$6#2$ date he had therefore  
018:074,02['  ]| an ample space of time wherein to$9$ perform preparative  
018:074,03['  ]| abstinences.  His forty days were consumed in$4$ aimless solitary  
018:074,04['  ]| walks during which$6#1$ he forged out his sentences.  In$4$ this  
018:074,05['  ]| manner he had his whole essay in$4$ his mind from the first  
018:074,06['  ]| word to$4$ the last before he had put any morsel of it on$4$  
018:074,07['  ]| paper.  In$4$ thinking or constructing the form of the essay he  
018:074,08['  ]| found himself much hampered by$4$ the sitting posture.   
018:074,09['  ]| His body disturbed him and he adapted the expedient of  
018:074,10['  ]| appeasing it by$4$ gentle promenading.  Sometimes during his  
018:074,11['  ]| walks he lost the train of his thought and whenever the void  
018:074,12['  ]| of his mind seemed irreclaimable he forced order upon$4$ it by$4$  
018:074,13['  ]| ejaculatory fervours.  His morning walks were critical, his  
018:074,14['  ]| evening walks imaginative and whatever had seemed  
018:074,15['  ]| plausible in$4$ the evening  was always rigorously examined in$4$  
018:074,16['  ]| the light of day.  These wanderings in$4$ the desert were  
018:074,17['  ]| reported from different points and Mr*Daedalus once asked  
018:074,18['  ]| his son 
018:074,18[YJ ]| what the hell had brought him out to$4$ Dophin's*Barn.   
018:074,19['  ]| Stephen said 
018:074,19[YB ]| he had gone part of the way  
018:074,20[YB ]| home with a fellow from the college 
018:074,20['  ]| whereupon Mr*Daedalus  
018:074,21['  ]| remarked that$3$ 
018:074,21[YJ ]| the fellow from the college  
018:074,22[YJ ]| should have gone all the way into the county Meath to$9$ live  
018:074,23[YJ ]| as his hand was in$5$.  
018:074,23['  ]| Any acquaintances that$6#1$ were encountered  
018:074,24['  ]| during these walks were never allowed to$9$ intrude on$4$  
018:074,25['  ]| the young man's meditations by$4$ commonplace conversation  
018:074,26['  ]| ~~ a fact which$6#1$ they seemed to$9$ recognize in$4$ advance by$4$ a  
018:074,27['  ]| deferent salute.  Stephen was therefore very much surprised  
018:074,28['  ]| one evening as he was walking past the Christian*Brothers'*School  
018:074,29['  ]| in$4$ North*Richmond*St to$9$ feel his arm seized from  
018:074,30['  ]| behind and to$9$ hear a voice say somewhat blatantly: 
018:074,31[L  ]| ~~ Hello, Daedalus, old man, is that$6#2$ you? 
018:075,01['  ]| Stephen turned round and saw a tall young man with many eruptions on$4$ his 
018:075,02['  ]| face dressed completely in$4$ heavy black.  He stared for$4$ a few moments, trying to$9$  
018:075,03['  ]| recall the face.  
018:075,04[L  ]| ~~ Do not you remember me?  I knew you at once.  
018:075,05[B  ]| ~~ O, yes now I do, 
018:075,05['  ]| said Stephen.  
018:075,05[B  ]| But you have changed.  
018:075,06[L  ]| ~~ Think so$5#2$? 
018:075,07[B  ]| ~~ I would not know you ~~ Are you ~~ in$4$ mourning? 
018:075,08['  ]| Wells laughed.  
018:075,09[L  ]| ~~ By$4$ Jove, that$6#2$ is a good one.  Evidently you do not know your  
018:075,10[L  ]| Church when you see it.   
018:075,11[B  ]| ~~ What?  You do not mean to$9$ say ~~ ? 
018:075,12[L  ]| ~~ Fact, old man.  I am in$4$ Clonliffe at present.  Been down  
018:075,13[L  ]| in$4$ Balbriggan today on$4$ leave:  the boss is very bad.  Poor old  
018:075,14[L  ]| chap! 
018:075,15[B  ]| ~~ O, indeed! 
018:075,16[L  ]| ~~ You are over in$4$ the green now, Boland told me.  Do you  
018:075,17[L  ]| know him?  He said you were at Belvedere with him.   
018:075,18[B  ]| ~~ Is he in$5$ too?  Yes I know him.  
018:075,19[L  ]| ~~ He has a great opinion of you.  He says you are a 9litte=rateur  
018:075,20[L  ]| now.   
018:075,21['  ]| Stephen smiled and did not know what subject to$9$ suggest  
018:075,22['  ]| next.  He wondered how far this loud-voiced student intended  
018:075,23['  ]| to$9$ accompany him.   
018:075,24[L  ]| ~~ See me down a bit of the way, will$1$ you?  I have just come  
018:075,25[L  ]| off the train at Amiens*St.  I am making for$4$ dinner.  
018:075,26[B  ]| ~~ Certainly.  
018:075,27['  ]| So$3$ they walked on$4$ side by$4$ side.  
018:075,28[L  ]| ~~ Well, and what have you been doing with yourself?   
018:075,29[L  ]| Having a good time, I suppose?  Down in$4$ Bray? 
018:075,30[B  ]| ~~ Ah, the usual thing, 
018:075,30['  ]| said Stephen.  
018:075,31[L  ]| ~~ I know:  I know.  After the esplanade girls, is not that$6#2$ it?   
018:075,32[L  ]| Silly game, old man, silly game!  Get tired of it.  
018:075,33[B  ]| ~~ You have, evidently.  
018:075,34[L  ]| ~~ Should think so$5#2$:  time too ~~ Ever see any of the Clongowes  
018:075,35[L  ]| fellows? 
018:076,01[B  ]| ~~ Never one.  
018:076,02[L  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is the way.  We all lose sight of each other after we  
018:076,03[L  ]| leave.  You remember Roth?   
018:076,04[B  ]| ~~ Yes.  
018:076,05[L  ]| You are going in$5$ for$4$ literature,I suppose.   
018:076,06[B  ]| ~~ I do not know really what I am going in$5$ for$4$.   
018:076,07[L  ]| ~~ I know:  I know.  On$4$ the loose, is not that$6#2$ it?  I have been  
018:076,08[L  ]| there myself.   
018:076,09[B  ]| ~~ Well, not exactly ~~ 
018:076,09['  ]| began Stephen.  
018:076,10[L  ]| ~~ O, of course not! 
018:076,10['  ]| said Wells quickly with a loud laugh.   
018:076,11['  ]| Passing down Jones's*Road they saw a gaudy advertisement  
018:076,12['  ]| in$4$ strong colours for$4$ a melodramatic play.  Wells asked  
018:076,13['  ]| Stephen 
018:076,13[YL ]| had he read \Trilby\.  
018:076,14[L  ]| ~~ Have not you?  Famous book, you know; style would  
018:076,15[L  ]| suit you I think.  Of course it is a bit ~~ blue.  
018:076,16[B  ]| ~~ How is that$6#2$? 
018:076,17[L  ]| ~~ O, well, you know ~~ Paris, you know ~~ artists.  
018:076,18[B  ]| ~~ O, is that$6#2$ the kind of book it is? 
018:076,19[L  ]| ~~ Nothing very wrong in$4$ it that$6#1$ I could see.  Still some  
018:076,20[L  ]| people think it is a bit immoral.  
018:076,21[B  ]| ~~ You have not it in$4$ the library in$4$ Clonliffe? 
018:076,22[L  ]| ~~ No$7$, not likely ~~ Do not I wish I was out of the show! 
018:076,23[B  ]| ~~ Are you thinking of leaving? 
018:076,24[L  ]| ~~ Next year ~~ perhaps this year ~~  I go to$4$ Paris for$4$ my  
018:076,25[L  ]| theology.  
018:076,26[B  ]| ~~ You will$1$ not be sorry, I suppose.  
018:076,27[L  ]| ~~ You bet.  Rotten show, this place.  Food is not as bad  
018:076,28[L  ]| but so$5#1$ dull, you know.  
018:076,29[B  ]| ~~ Are there many students in$4$ it now? 
018:076,30[L  ]| ~~ O, yes ~~ I do not mix much with them, you know ~~  
018:076,31[L  ]| There are a good lot.  
018:076,32[B  ]| ~~ I suppose you will$1$ be a parish priest one of these days.  
018:076,33[L  ]| ~~ I hope so$5#2$.  You must come and see me when I am.  
018:076,34[B  ]| ~~ Very good.   
018:076,35[L  ]| ~~ When you are a great writer yourself ~~ as the author of  
018:077,01[L  ]| a second \Trilby\ or something of that$6#2$ sort ~~ Will$1$ not you  
018:077,02[L  ]| come in$5$? 
018:077,03[B  ]| ~~ Is it allowed? 
018:077,04[L  ]| ~~ O, with me ~~ you come in$5$, never mind.   
018:077,05['  ]| The two young men went into the grounds of the college  
018:077,06['  ]| and along the circular carriage drive.  It was a damp evening  
018:077,07['  ]| and rather dark.  In$4$ the uncertain light a few of the more  
018:077,08['  ]| adventurous were to$9$ be seen vigorously playing handball in$4$  
018:077,09['  ]| a little side-alley, the smack of the wet ball against the concrete  
018:077,10['  ]| wall of the alley alternating with their lusty shouts.  For$4$  
018:077,11['  ]| the most part the students were walking in$4$ little groups  
018:077,12['  ]| through the ground, some with their berettas pushed  
018:077,13['  ]| far back to$4$ the nape of their necks and others holding their  
018:077,14['  ]| soutanes up$5$ as women do with their skirts when they cross  
018:077,15['  ]| a muddy street.  
018:077,16[B  ]| ~~ Can you go with anyone you like$1$? 
018:077,16['  ]| asked Stephen.  
018:077,17[L  ]| ~~ Companions are not allowed.  You must join the first  
018:077,18[L  ]| group you meet.  
018:077,19[B  ]| ~~ Why did not you go to$4$ the Jesuit order? 
018:077,20[L  ]| ~~ Not likely, my boy.  Sixteen years of noviciate and no$2$  
018:077,21[L  ]| chance of ever settling down.  Here today, there tomorrow.  
018:077,22['  ]| As Stephen looked at the big square block of masonry  
018:077,23['  ]| looming before them through the faint daylight, he re-entered  
018:077,24['  ]| again in$4$ thought the seminarist life which$6#1$ he had  
018:077,25['  ]| led for$4$ so$5#1$ many years, to$4$ the understanding of the narrow  
018:077,26['  ]| activities of which$6#1$ he could now in$4$ a moment bring the spirit  
018:077,27['  ]| of an acute sympathetic alien.  He recognised at once the  
018:077,28['  ]| martial mind of the Irish*Church in$4$ the style of this ecclesiastical  
018:077,29['  ]| barracks.  He looked in$4$ vain at the faces and figures  
018:077,30['  ]| which$6#1$ passed him for$4$ a token of moral elevation:  all were  
018:077,31['  ]| cowed without being humble, modish without being simple-mannered.   
018:077,32['  ]| Some of the students saluted Wells but got scanty  
018:077,33['  ]| thanks for$4$ the courtesy.  Wells wished Stephen to$9$ gather that$3$  
018:077,34['  ]| he despised his fellow-students and that$3$ it was not his fault  
018:077,35['  ]| if they regarded him as an important person.  At the foot of  
018:077,36['  ]| the stone steps he turned to$4$ Stephen: 
018:078,01[L  ]| ~~ I must go in$5$ to$9$ see the Dean for$4$ a minute.  I am afraid  
018:078,02[L  ]| it is too late for$4$ me to$9$ show you round the show this evening  
018:078,03[L  ]| ~~  
018:078,04[B  ]| ~~ O, not at all.  Another time.  
018:078,05[L  ]| ~~ Well, will$1$ you wait for$4$ me.  Stroll along there towards  
018:078,06[L  ]| the chapel.  I will$1$ not be a minute.   
018:078,07['  ]| He nodded at Stephen for$4$ a temporary farewell and sprang  
018:078,08['  ]| up$4$ the steps.  Stephen wandered on$5$ towards the  
018:078,09['  ]| chapel meditatively kicking a white flat stone along the grey  
018:078,10['  ]| pebbly path.  He was not likely to$9$ be deceived by$4$ Wells' 
018:078,11['  ]| words into an acceptance of that$6#2$ young man as quite a  
018:078,12['  ]| vicious person.  He knew that$3$ Wells had exaggerated his airs  
018:078,13['  ]| in$4$ order to$9$ hide his internal sense of mortification at meeting  
018:078,14['  ]| one who$6#1$ had not forsaken the world, the flesh and the devil  
018:078,15['  ]| and he suspected that$6#2$, if there were any tendency to$4$ oscillation  
018:078,16['  ]| in$4$ the soul of the free-spoken young student, the iron  
018:078,17['  ]| hand of the discipline of the Church would firmly intervene  
018:078,18['  ]| to$9$ restore equipoise.  At the same time Stephen felt somewhat  
018:078,19['  ]| indignant that$3$ anyone should expect him to$9$ entrust spiritual  
018:078,20['  ]| difficulties to$4$ such a confessor or to$9$ receive with pious feelings  
018:078,21['  ]| any sacrament or benediction from the hands of the young  
018:078,22['  ]| students whom he saw walking through the grounds.  It was  
018:078,23['  ]| not any personal pride which$6#1$ would prevent him but a  
018:078,24['  ]| recognition of the incompatibility of two natures, one trained 
018:078,25['  ]| to$4$ repressive enforcement of a creed, the other equipped with  
018:078,26['  ]| a vision the angle of which$6#1$ would never adjust itself for$4$ the  
018:078,27['  ]| reception of hallucinations and with an intelligence which$6#1$  
018:078,28['  ]| was as much in$4$ love with laughter as with combat.  
018:078,29['  ]| The mist of the evening had begun to$9$ thicken into slow  
018:078,30['  ]| fine rain and Stephen halted at the end of a narrow path  
018:078,31['  ]| beside a few laurel bushes, watching at the end of a leaf a  
018:078,32['  ]| tiny point of rain form and twinkle and hesitate and finally  
018:078,33['  ]| take the plunge into the sodden clay beneath.  He wondered  
018:078,34['  ]| was it raining in$4$ Westmeath, 
018:078,35['  ]| He remembered  
018:078,36['  ]| seeing the cattle standing together patiently in$4$ the  
018:079,01['  ]| hedges and reeking in$4$ the rain.  A little band of students 
018:079,02['  ]| passed at the other side of the laurel bushes:  they were talking  
018:079,03['  ]| among themselves: 
018:079,04[X  ]| ~~ But did you see Mrs*Bergin? 
018:079,05[X  ]| ~~ O, I saw her ~~ with a black and white boa.  
018:079,06[X  ]| ~~ And the two Miss*Kennedys were there.  
018:079,07[X  ]| ~~ Where? 
018:079,08[X  ]| ~~ Right behind the Archbishop's*Throne.   
018:079,09[X  ]| ~~ O, I saw her ~~ one of them.  Had not she a grey hat with  
018:079,10[X  ]| a bird in$4$ it? 
018:079,11[X  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ was her!  She is very lady-like is not she.  
018:079,12['  ]| The little band went down the path.  In$4$ a few minutes  
018:079,13['  ]| another little band passed behind the bushes.  One student  
018:079,14['  ]| was talking and the others were listening.   
018:079,15[X  ]| ~~ Yes and an astronomer too:  that$6#2$ is why he had  
018:079,16[X  ]| that$6#2$ observatory build over there at the side of the palace.  I  
018:079,17[X  ]| heard a priest say once that$3$ the three greatest men in$4$ Europe  
018:079,18[X  ]| were Gladstone, Bismarck (the great German statesman) and  
018:079,19[X  ]| our own Archbishop ~~ as all-round men.  He knew him at  
018:079,20[X  ]| Maynooth.  He said that$3$ in$4$ Maynooth ~~  
018:079,21['  ]| The speaker's words were lost in$4$ the crunch of the heavy  
018:079,22['  ]| boots on$4$ the gravel.  The rain was spreading and increasing  
018:079,23['  ]| and the vagrant bands of students were all turning their steps  
018:079,24['  ]| towards the college.  Stephen still waited at his post and at  
018:079,25['  ]| last saw Wells coming down the path quickly:  he had 
018:079,26['  ]| changed his outdoor dress for$4$ a soutane.  He was very apologetic  
018:079,27['  ]| and not quite so$5#1$ familiar in$4$ manner.  Stephen wanted  
018:079,28['  ]| him to$9$ go in$5$ with the others but he insisted on$4$ seeing his  
018:079,29['  ]| visitor to$4$ the gate.  They took a short cut down beside the  
018:079,30['  ]| wall and were soon opposite the lodge.  The side-door  
018:079,31['  ]| was shut and Wells called out loudly to$4$ the lodge-woman to$9$  
018:079,32['  ]| open it and let the gentleman out.  Then he shook hands with  
018:079,33['  ]| Stephen and pressed him to$9$ come again.  The lodge-woman  
018:079,34['  ]| opened the side-door and Wells looked out for$4$ a second or  
018:079,35['  ]| two almost enviously.  Then he said: 
018:079,36[L  ]| ~~ Well, goodbye, old man.  Must run in$5$ now.  Awfully  
018:080,01[L  ]| glad to$9$ see you again ~~ see any of the old Clongowes set, 
018:080,02[L  ]| you know.  Be good now:  I must run.  Goodbye.  
018:080,03['  ]| As he tucked up$5$ his soutane high and ran awkwardly up$4$  
018:080,04['  ]| the drive he looked a strange, almost criminal, 
018:080,05['  ]| fugitive in$4$ the dreary dusk.  Stephen's eyes followed the  
018:080,06['  ]| running figure for$4$ a moment:  and as he passed through the 
018:080,07['  ]| door into the lamplit street he smiled at his own impulse of  
018:080,08['  ]| pity.   
019:081,01['  ]| HE smiled because it seemed to$4$ him so$5#1$ unexpected a ripeness  
019:081,02['  ]| in$4$ himself ~~ this pity ~~ or rather this impulse of pity for$3$ he  
019:081,03['  ]| had no$2$ more than entertained it.  But it was the actual  
019:081,04['  ]| achievement of his essay which$6#1$ had allowed him so$5#1$ mature 
019:081,05['  ]| a pleasure as the sensation of pity for$4$ another.  Stephen had  
019:081,06['  ]| a thoroughgoing manner in$4$ many things:  his essay was not  
019:081,07['  ]| in$4$ the least the exhibition of polite accomplishments.  It was  
019:081,08['  ]| on$4$ the contrary very seriously intended to$9$ define his own  
019:081,09['  ]| position for$4$ himself.  He could not persuade himself that$3$, if  
019:081,10['  ]| he wrote round about his subject with facility or treated it  
019:081,11['  ]| from any standpoint of impression, good would come of it.   
019:081,12['  ]| On$4$ the other hand he was persuaded that$3$ no-one served the  
019:081,13['  ]| generation into which$6#1$ he had been born so$5#1$ well as he who$6#1$  
019:081,14['  ]| offered it, whether in$4$ his art or in$4$ his life, the gift of certitude.   
019:081,15['  ]| The programme of the patriots filled him with very reasonable  
019:081,16['  ]| doubts; its articles could obtain no$2$ intellectual assent  
019:081,17['  ]| from him.  He knew, moreover, that$3$ concordance with it  
019:081,18['  ]| would mean for$4$ him a submission of everything else in$4$ its  
019:081,19['  ]| interest and that$3$ he would thus be obliged to$9$ corrupt the  
019:081,20['  ]| springs of speculation at their very source.  He refused therefore  
019:081,21['  ]| to$9$ set out for$4$ any task if he had first to$9$ prejudice his  
019:081,22['  ]| success by$4$ oaths to$4$ his patria and this refusal resulted in$4$ a  
019:081,23['  ]| theory of art which$6#1$ was at once severe and liberal.  His  
019:081,24['  ]| Esthetic was in$4$ the main applied Aquinas, and he set it  
019:081,25['  ]| forth plainly with a naif air of discovering novelties.  This he  
019:081,26['  ]| did partly to$9$ satisfy his own taste for$4$ enigmatic ro^les and  
019:081,27['  ]| partly from a genuine predisposition in$4$ favour of all but the  
019:081,28['  ]| premisses of scholasticism.  He proclaimed at the outset that$3$  
019:081,29['  ]| art was the human disposition of intelligible or sensible  
019:081,30['  ]| matter for$4$ an esthetic end, and he announced further that$3$  
019:081,31['  ]| all such human dispositions must fall into the division of three  
019:081,32['  ]| distinct natural kinds, lyrical, epical and dramatic.  
019:081,32[B  ]| Lyrical  
019:081,33[B  ]| art, 
019:081,33['  ]| he said, 
019:081,33[B  ]| is the art whereby the artist sets forth his image 
019:082,01[B  ]| in$4$ immediate relation to$4$ himself; epical art is the art whereby  
019:082,02[B  ]| the artist sets forth his image in$4$ immediate relation to$4$ himself  
019:082,03[B  ]| and to$4$ others; and dramatic art is the art whereby the artist  
019:082,04[B  ]| sets forth his image in$4$ immediate relations to$4$ others.  The  
019:082,05[B  ]| various forms of art, such as music, sculpture, literature, do  
019:082,06[B  ]| not offer this division with the same clearness 
019:082,06['  ]| and he concluded  
019:082,07['  ]| from this that$3$ 
019:082,07[YB ]| those forms of art which$6#1$ offered the  
019:082,08[YB ]| division most clearly were to$9$ be called the most excellent  
019:082,09[YB ]| forms:  and he was not greatly perturbed because he could not  
019:082,10[YB ]| decide for$4$ himself whether a portrait was a work of epical art 
019:082,11[YB ]| or not or whether it was possible for$4$ an architect to$9$ be a  
019:082,12[YB ]| lyrical, epical or dramatic poet at will$0$.  
019:082,12['  ]| Having by$4$ this simple  
019:082,13['  ]| process established the literary form of art as the most excellent  
019:082,14['  ]| he proceeded to$9$ examine it in$4$ favour of his theory, or, 
019:082,15['  ]| as he rendered it, 
019:082,15[B  ]| to$9$ establish the relations which$6#1$ must subsist  
019:082,16[B  ]| between the literary image, the work of art itself, and that$6#2$  
019:082,17[B  ]| energy which$6#1$ had imagined and fashioned it, that$6#2$ centre of  
019:082,18[B  ]| conscious, re-acting, particular life, the artist.   
019:082,19[YB ]| The artist, he imagined, standing in$4$ the position of mediator  
019:082,20[YB ]| between the world of his experience and the world of his dreams  
019:082,21[YB ]| ~~ a mediator, consequently gifted with twin faculties, 
019:082,22[YB ]| a selective faculty and a reproductive faculty.  To$9$ 
019:082,23[YB ]| equate these faculties was the secret of artistic success:  the  
019:082,24[YB ]| artist who$6#1$ could disentangle the subtle soul of the image  
019:082,25[YB ]| from its mesh of defining circumstances most exactly and  
019:082,26[YB ]| re-embody it in$4$ artistic circumstances chosen as the most  
019:082,27[YB ]| exact for$4$ it in$4$ its new office, he was the supreme artist.  This 
019:082,28[YB ]| perfect coincidence of the two artistic faculties Stephen  
019:082,29[YB ]| called poetry and he imagined the domain of an art to$9$ be  
019:082,30[YB ]| cone-shaped.  The term ""literature"" now seemed to$4$ him a  
019:082,31[YB ]| term of contempt and he used it to$9$ designate the vast middle 
019:082,32[YB ]| region which$6#1$ lies between apex and base, between poetry  
019:082,33[YB ]| and the chaos of unremembered writing.  Its merit lay in$4$ its  
019:082,34[YB ]| portrayal of externals; the realm of its princes was the realm  
019:082,35[YB ]| of the manners and customs of societies ~~ a spacious realm.   
019:082,36[YB ]| But society is itself, conceived, the complex body in$4$ which$6#1$ 
019:083,01[YB ]| certain laws are involved and overwrapped and he therefore  
019:083,02[YB ]| proclaimed as the realm of the poet the realm of these unalterable  
019:083,03[YB ]| laws.  
019:083,03['  ]| Such a theory might easily have led its  
019:083,04['  ]| deviser to$4$ the acceptance of spiritual anarchy in$4$ literature  
019:083,05['  ]| had he not at the same time insisted on$4$ the classical style.  
019:083,05[B  ]| A  
019:083,06[B  ]| classical style, 
019:083,06['  ]| he said 
019:083,06[B  ]| is the syllogism of art, the only legitimate  
019:083,07[B  ]| process from one world to$4$ another.  Classicism is not  
019:083,08[B  ]| the manner of any fixed age or of any fixed country:  It is a  
019:083,09[B  ]| constant state of the artistic mind.  It is a temper of security  
019:083,10[B  ]| and satisfaction and patience.  The romantic temper, so$5#1$ often  
019:083,11[B  ]| and so$5#1$ grievously misinterpreted and not more by$4$ others than  
019:083,12[B  ]| by$4$ its own, is an insecure, unsatisfied, impatient temper which$6#1$  
019:083,13[B  ]| sees no$2$ fit abode here for$4$ its ideals and chooses therefore to$9$  
019:083,14[B  ]| behold them under insensible figures.  As a result of this  
019:083,15[B  ]| choice it comes to$9$ disregard certain limitations.  Its figures  
019:083,16[B  ]| are blown to$4$ wild adventures, lacking the gravity of solid  
019:083,17[B  ]| bodies, and the mind that$6#1$ has conceived them ends by$4$ disowning  
019:083,18[B  ]| them.  The classical temper on$4$ the other hand, ever  
019:083,19[B  ]| mindful of limitations, chooses rather to$9$ bend upon$4$ these  
019:083,20[B  ]| present things and so$5#2$ to$9$ work upon$4$ them and fashion them  
019:083,21[B  ]| that$3$ the quick intelligence may go beyond them to$4$ their  
019:083,22[B  ]| meaning which$6#1$ is still unuttered.  In$4$ this method the sane  
019:083,23[B  ]| and joyful spirit issues forth and achieves imperishable  
019:083,24[B  ]| perfection, nature assisting with her goodwill and thanks.  For$4$ 
019:083,25[B  ]| so$5#1$ long as this place in$4$ nature is given us it is right that$3$ art  
019:083,26[B  ]| should do no$2$ violence to$4$ the gift.  
019:083,27[YB ]| Between these two conflicting schools the city of arts  
019:083,28[YB ]| had become marvellously unpeaceful.  To$4$ many spectators  
019:083,29[YB ]| the dispute had seemed a dispute a dispute about names, a battle in$4$  
019:083,30[YB ]| which$6#1$ the position of the standards could never be fortold  
019:083,31[YB ]| for$4$ a minute.  
019:083,31[B  ]| Add to$4$ this internecine warfare ~~ the classical 
019:083,32[B  ]| school fighting the materialism that$6#1$ must attend it, the  
019:083,33[B  ]| romantic school struggling to$9$ preserve coherence ~~ and behold  
019:083,34[B  ]| from what ungentle manners criticism is bound to$9$  
019:083,35[B  ]| recognise the emergence of all achievement.  The critic is  
019:083,36[B  ]| he who$6#1$ is able, by$4$ means of the signs which$6#1$ the artist affords, 
019:084,01[B  ]| to$9$ approach the temper which$6#1$ has made the work and to$9$  
019:084,02[B  ]| see what is well done therein and what it signifies.  For$4$ him a  
019:084,03[B  ]| song by$4$ Shakespeare which$6#1$ seems so$5#1$ free and living, as  
019:084,04[B  ]| remote from any conscious purpose as rain that$6#1$ falls in$4$ a  
019:084,05[B  ]| garden or as the lights of evening, discovers itself as the  
019:084,06[B  ]| rhythmic speech of an emotion otherwise incommunicable, 
019:084,07[B  ]| or at least not so$5#1$ fitly.  But to$9$ approach the temper which$6#1$  
019:084,08[B  ]| has made art is an act of reverence before the performance 
019:084,09[B  ]| of which$6#1$ many conventions must be first put off for$3$ certainly  
019:084,10[B  ]| that$6#2$ inmost region will$1$ never yield its secret to$4$ one who$6#1$ is  
019:084,11[B  ]| enmeshed with profanities.   
019:084,12[YB ]| Chief among these profanities Stephen set the antique  
019:084,13[YB ]| principle that$3$ the end of art is to$9$ instruct, to$9$ elevate, and to$9$  
019:084,14[YB ]| amuse.  
019:084,14[BZ ]| ""I am unable to$9$ find even a trace of this Puritanic  
019:084,15[BZ ]| conception of the esthetic purpose in$4$ the definition which$6#1$  
019:084,16[BZ ]| Aquinas has given of beauty,"" 
019:084,16['  ]| he wrote 
019:084,16[BZ ]| ""or in$4$ anything 
019:084,17[BZ ]| which$6#1$ he has written concerning the beautiful.  The qualifications  
019:084,18[BZ ]| he expects for$4$ beauty are in$4$ fact of so$5#1$ abstract and  
019:084,19[BZ ]| common a character that$3$ it is quite impossible for$3$ even the  
019:084,20[BZ ]| most violent partizan to$9$ use the Auination theory with the  
019:084,21[BZ ]| object of attacking any work of art that$6#1$ we possess from  
019:084,22[BZ ]| the hand of any artist whatsoever.""  
019:084,22[YB ]| This recognition of the  
019:084,23[YB ]| beautiful in$4$ virtue of the most abstract relations afforded  
019:084,24[YB ]| by$4$ an object to$4$ which$6#1$ the term could be applied so$5#1$ far from  
019:084,25[YB ]| giving any support to$4$ a commandment of \7Noli*Tangere\ was  
019:084,26[YB ]| itself no$2$ more than a just sequence from the taking-off of all  
019:084,27[YB ]| interdictions from the artist.  
019:084,27[B  ]| The limits of decency suggest  
019:084,28[B  ]| themselves somewhat too readily to$4$ the modern speculator  
019:084,29[B  ]| and their effect is to$9$ encourage the profane mind to$4$ very  
019:084,30[B  ]| futile jurisdiction.  For$3$ it cannot be urged too strongly on$4$  
019:084,31[B  ]| the public mind that$3$ the tradition of art is with the artists  
019:084,32[B  ]| and that$3$ even if they do not make it their invariable practice 
019:084,33[B  ]| to$9$ outrage these limits of decency the public mind has no$2$  
019:084,34[B  ]| right to$9$ conclude therefrom that$3$ they do not arrogate for$4$  
019:084,35[B  ]| themselves an entire liberty to$9$ do so$5#2$ if they choose.  It is as  
019:084,36[B  ]| absurd, 
019:084,36['  ]| wrote the fiery-hearted revolutionary, 
019:084,36[B  ]| for$4$ a criticism  
019:085,01[B  ]| itself established upon$4$ homilies to$9$ prohibit the elective  
019:085,02[B  ]| courses of the artist in$4$ his \revelation\ of the beautiful as it would  
019:085,03[B  ]| be for$4$ a police-magistrate to$9$ prohibit the sum of any two sides  
019:085,04[B  ]| of a triangle from being together greater than the third side.   
019:085,05[B  ]| In$4$ fine the truth is not that$3$ the artist require a document  
019:085,06[B  ]| of licence from householders entitling him to$9$ proceed in$4$ this  
019:085,07[B  ]| or that$6#2$ fashion but that$3$ every age must look for$4$ its sanction  
019:085,08[B  ]| to$4$ its poets and philosophers.  The poet is the intense centre  
019:085,09[B  ]| of the life of his age to$4$ which$6#1$ he stands in$4$ a relation than  
019:085,10[B  ]| which$6#1$ none can be more vital.  He alone is capable of  
019:085,11[B  ]| absorbing in$4$ himself the life that$6#1$ surrounds him and of  
019:085,12[B  ]| flinging it abroad again amid planetary music.  When the  
019:085,13[B  ]| poetic phenomenon is signalled in$4$ the heavens, 
019:085,13['  ]| exclaimed this  
019:085,14['  ]| heaven-ascending essayist, 
019:085,14[B  ]| it is time for$4$ the critis to$9$ 
019:085,15[B  ]| verify their calculations in$4$ accordance with it.  It is time for$4$  
019:085,16[B  ]| them to$9$ acknowledge that$3$ here the imagination has contemplated  
019:085,17[B  ]| intensely the truth of the being of the visible  
019:085,18[B  ]| world and that$6#2$ beauty, the splendour of truth, has been  
019:085,19[B  ]| born.  The age, though it bury itself fathoms deep in$4$ formulas 
019:085,20[B  ]| and machinery, has need of these realities which$6#1$ alone give  
019:085,21[B  ]| and sustain life and it must await from those chosen centres  
019:085,22[B  ]| of vivification the force to$9$ live, the security for$4$ life which$6#1$  
019:085,23[B  ]| can come to$4$ it only from them.  Thus the spirit of man makes  
019:085,24[B  ]| a continual affirmation.   
019:085,25['  ]| Except for$4$ the eloquent and arrogant peroration Stephen's  
019:085,26['  ]| essay was a careful exposition of a carefully meditated theory  
019:085,27['  ]| of esthetic.  When he had finished it he found it necessary to$9$  
019:085,28['  ]| change the title from ""Drama*and*Life"" to$4$ ""Art*and*Life""  
019:085,29['  ]| for$3$ he had occupied himself so$5#1$ much with securing the  
019:085,30['  ]| foundations that$3$ he had not left himself space enough to$9$  
019:085,31['  ]| raise the complete structure.  This strangely unpopular  
019:085,32['  ]| manifesto was traversed by$4$ the two brothers phrase by$4$ phrase  
019:085,33['  ]| and word by$4$ word and at last pronounced flawless at all  
019:085,34['  ]| points.  It was then safely laid by$5$ until the time should come  
019:085,35['  ]| for$4$ its public appearance.  Besides Maurice two other well-wishers  
019:085,36['  ]| had an advance view of it; these were Stephen's  
019:086,01['  ]| mother and his friend Madden.  Madden had not asked for$4$  
019:086,02['  ]| it directly but at the end of a conversation in$4$ which$6#1$ Stephen  
019:086,03['  ]| had recounted sarcastically his visit to$4$ Clonliffe*College he  
019:086,04['  ]| had vaguely wondered what state of mind could produce  
019:086,05['  ]| such irreverences and Stephen had at once offered him the  
019:086,06['  ]| manuscript saying 
019:086,06[B  ]| ""This is the first of my explosives.""  
019:086,06['  ]| The  
019:086,07['  ]| following evening Madden had returned the manuscript 
019:086,08['  ]| and praised the writing highly.  
019:086,08[YV ]| Part of it had been too deep  
019:086,09[YV ]| for$4$ him, 
019:086,09['  ]| he said, 
019:086,09[YV ]| but he could see that$3$ it was beautifully  
019:086,10[YV ]| written.   
019:086,11[F  ]| ~~ You know Stevie, 
019:086,11['  ]| he said (Madden had a brother  
019:086,12['  ]| Stephen and he sometimes used this familiar form) 
019:086,12[F  ]| you  
019:086,13[F  ]| always told me I was a country \buachail\ and I can not understand  
019:086,14[F  ]| you mystical fellows.   
019:086,15[B  ]| ~~ Mystical?  
019:086,15['  ]| said Stephen.  
019:086,16[F  ]| ~~ About the planets and the stars, you know.  Some of the  
019:086,17[F  ]| fellows in$4$ the League belong to$4$ the mystical set here.  They would  
019:086,18[F  ]| understand quick enough.   
019:086,19[B  ]| ~~ But there is  nothing mysticaly in$4$ it I tell you.  I have  
019:086,20[B  ]| written it carefully ~~  
019:086,21[F  ]| ~~ O, I can see you have.  It is beautifully written.  But I am  
019:086,22[F  ]| sure it will$1$ be above the heads of your audience.   
019:086,23[B  ]| ~~ You do not mean to$9$ tell me, Madden, you think it is a  
019:086,24[F  ]| ""flowery"" composition! 
019:086,25[B  ]| ~~ I know you have thought it out.  But you are a poet, are not  
019:086,26[B  ]| you? 
019:086,27[F  ]| ~~ I have ~~ written verse ~~ if that$6#2$ is what you mean.   
019:086,28[B  ]| ~~ Do you know Hughes is a poet too? 
019:086,29[F  ]| ~~ Hughes! 
019:086,30[B  ]| ~~ Yes.  He writes for$4$ our paper, you know.  Would you  
019:086,31[B  ]| like$1$ to$9$ see some of his poetry? 
019:086,32[F  ]| ~~ Why, could you show me any? 
019:086,33[B  ]| ~~ It so$5#2$ happens I have one in$4$ my pocket.  There is one in$4$  
019:086,34[B  ]| this week's \Sword\ too.  Here it is:  read it.  
019:087,01['  ]| Stephen took the paper and read a piece of verse entitled  
019:087,02[Z  ]| \Mo*Na=ire*Tu`\ ~~ (My shame art thou).  
019:087,02['  ]| There were four  
019:087,03['  ]| stanzas in$4$ the piece and each stanza ended with the Irish phrase ~~  
019:087,04[Z  ]| \Mo*Na=ire*Tu`\, 
019:087,04['  ]| the last word, of course, rhyming to$4$  
019:087,05['  ]| an English word in$4$ the corresponding line.  The piece began:   
019:087,06[Z  ]| What!  Shall the rippling tongue of Gaels 
019:087,07[Z  ]| Give way before the Saxon slang!   
019:087,08['  ]| and in$4$ lines full of excited patriotism proceeded to$9$ pour  
019:087,09['  ]| scorn upon$4$ the Irishman who$6#1$ would not learn the ancient  
019:087,10['  ]| language of his native land.  Stephen did not remark anything  
019:087,11['  ]| in$4$ the lines except the frequency of such contracted 
019:087,12['  ]| forms as ""e'en"" ""ne'er"" and ""thro"" instead of ""even"" ""never"" and  
019:087,13['  ]| ""through"" and he handed back the paper to$4$ Madden without  
019:087,14['  ]| offering any comment on$4$ the verse.  
019:087,15[F  ]| ~~ I suppose you do not like$1$ that$6#2$ because it is too Irish but  
019:087,16[F  ]| you will$1$ like$1$ this, I suppose, because it is that$6#2$ mystical, idealistic  
019:087,17[F  ]| kind of writing you poets indulge in$4$.  Only you must not say  
019:087,18[F  ]| I let you see ~~  
019:087,19[B  ]| ~~ O, no$7$.  
019:087,20['  ]| Madden took from his inside pocket a sheet of foolscap  
019:087,21['  ]| folded in$4$ four on$4$ which$6#1$ was inscribed a piece of verse, consisting  
019:087,22['  ]| of four stanzas of eight lines each, entitled 
019:087,22[Z  ]| ""My*Ideal"".   
019:087,23['  ]| Each stanza began with the words 
019:087,23[Z  ]| ""Art thou real?""  
019:087,23['  ]| The  
019:087,24['  ]| poem told of the poet's troubles in$4$ a 
019:087,24[Z  ]| ""vale of woe"" 
019:087,24['  ]| and of the  
019:087,25[Z  ]| ""heart-throbs"" 
019:087,25['  ]| which$6#1$ these troubles caused him.  It told of  
019:087,26[Z  ]| ""weary nights"", 
019:087,26['  ]| and 
019:087,26[Z  ]| ""anxious days""  
019:087,26['  ]| and of an 
019:087,26[Z  ]| ""unquenchable  
019:087,27[Z  ]| desire"" 
019:087,27['  ]| for$4$ an excellence beyond that$6#2$ 
019:087,27[Z  ]| ""which$6#1$ earth can give"".   
019:087,28['  ]| After this mounful idealism the final stanza offered a certain  
019:087,29['  ]| consolatory, hypothetical alternative to$4$ the poet in$4$ his woes:   
019:087,30['  ]| it began somewhat hopefully: 
019:087,31[Z  ]| Art thou real, my Ideal? 
019:087,32[Z  ]| Wilt thou ever come to$4$ me 
019:087,33[Z  ]| In$4$ the soft and gentle twilight 
019:087,34[Z  ]| With your baby on$4$ your knee? 
019:087,35['  ]| The effect of this apparition on$4$ Stephen was a  
019:088,01['  ]| long staining blush of anger.  The tawdry lines, the futile  
019:088,02['  ]| change of number, the ludicrous waddling approach of  
019:088,03['  ]| Hughes's ""Ideal"" weighed down by$4$ an inexplicable infant  
019:088,04['  ]| combined to$9$ cause him a sharp agony in$4$ the sensitive region.   
019:088,05['  ]| Again he handed back the verse without saying a word of  
019:088,06['  ]| praise or of blame but he decided that$3$ attendance in$4$ Mr*Hughes's  
019:088,07['  ]| class was no$2$ longer possible for$4$ him and he was  
019:088,08['  ]| foolish enough to$9$ regret having yielded to$4$ the impulse for$4$  
019:088,09['  ]| sympathy from a friend.  
019:088,10['  ]| When a demand for$4$ intelligent sympathy goes unanswered he  
019:088,11['  ]| is a too stern disciplinarian who$6#1$ blames himself for$4$  
019:088,12['  ]| having offered a dullard an opportunity to$9$ participate in$4$  
019:088,13['  ]| the warmer movement of a more highly organised life.  So$3$  
019:088,14['  ]| Stephen regarded his loans of manuscripts as elaborate  
019:088,15['  ]| flag-practices with phrases.  He did not consider his  
019:088,16['  ]| mother a dullard but the result of his second disappointment  
019:088,17['  ]| in$4$ the search for$4$ appreciation was that$3$ he was enabled to$9$  
019:088,18['  ]| place the blame on$4$ the shoulders of others ~~ not on$4$ his own:   
019:088,19['  ]| he had enough responsibilities thereon already, inherited and  
019:088,20['  ]| acquired.  His mother had not asked to$9$ see the manuscript:   
019:088,21['  ]| she had continued to$9$ iron clothes on$4$ the kitchen-table  
019:088,22['  ]| without the least suspicion of the agitation in$4$ the mind of  
019:088,23['  ]| her son.  He had sat on$4$ three or four kitchen chairs, one  
019:088,24['  ]| after another, and dangled his legs unsuccessfully from  
019:088,25['  ]| all free corners of the table.  At last, unable to$9$ control his  
019:088,26['  ]| agitation, he asked her point-blank would she like$1$ him to$9$  
019:088,27['  ]| read out his essay.   
019:088,28[M  ]| ~~ O, yes, Stephen ~~ if you do not mind my ironing a few  
019:088,29[M  ]| things ~~  
019:088,30[B  ]| ~~ No$7$, I do not mind.   
019:088,31['  ]| Stephen read out the essay to$4$ her slowly and emphatically  
019:088,32['  ]| and when he had finished reading she said 
019:087,32[YM ]| it was very beautifully  
019:088,33[YM ]| written but that$3$ as there were some things in$4$ it which$6#1$ she  
019:088,34[YM ]| could not follow, would he mind reading it to$4$ her again and  
019:088,35[YM ]| explaining some of it.  
019:087,35['  ]| He read it over again and allowed  
019:088,36['  ]| himself a long exposition of his theories garnished with  
019:089,01['  ]| many crude striking allusions with which$6#1$ he hoped to$9$ drive  
019:089,02['  ]| it home the better.  His mother who$6#1$ had never suspected  
019:089,03['  ]| probably that$3$ ""beauty"" could be anything more than a  
019:089,04['  ]| convention of the drawingroom or a natural antecedent to$4$  
019:089,05['  ]| marriage and married life was surprised to$9$ see the extraordinary  
019:089,06['  ]| honour which$6#1$ he ron conferred upon$4$ it.  Beauty, to$4$  
019:089,07['  ]| the mind of such a woman, was often a synonym for$4$ licentious  
019:089,08['  ]| ways and probably for$4$ this reason she was relieved to$9$  
019:089,09['  ]| find that$3$ the excesses of this new worship were supervised by$4$ a  
019:089,10['  ]| recognised saintly authority.  However as the essayist's  
019:089,11['  ]| recent habits were not very reassuring she decided to$9$ combine  
019:089,12['  ]| a discreet motherly solicitude with an interest, which$6#1$ without  
019:089,13['  ]| being open to$4$ the accusation of factitiousness was at first  
019:089,14['  ]| intended as a compliment.  While she was nicely folding a  
019:089,15['  ]| handkerchief she said: 
019:089,16[M  ]| ~~ What does Ibsen write, Stephen? 
019:089,17[B  ]| ~~ Plays.  
019:089,18[M  ]| ~~ I never heard of his name before.  Is he alive at present? 
019:089,19[B  ]| ~~ Yes, he is.  But, you know, in$4$ Ireland people do not  
019:089,20[B  ]| know much about what is going on$5$ out in$4$ Europe.  
019:089,21[M  ]| ~~ He must be a great writer from what you say of him.  
019:089,22[B  ]| ~~ Would you like$1$ to$9$ read some of his plays, mother.  I  
019:089,23[B  ]| have some.  
019:089,24[M  ]| ~~ Yes.  I would like$1$ to$9$ read the best one.  What is the  
019:089,25[M  ]| best one? 
019:089,26[B  ]| ~~ I do not know ~~ But do you really want to$9$ read Ibsen? 
019:089,27[M  ]| ~~ I do, really.   
019:089,28[B  ]| ~~ To$9$ see whether I am reading dangerous authors or not, 
019:089,29[B  ]| is that$6#2$ why? 
019:089,30[M  ]| ~~ No$7$, Stephen, answered his mother with a brave  
019:089,31[M  ]| prevarication.  I think you are old enough now to$9$ know what  
019:089,32[M  ]| is right and what is wrong without my dictating to$4$ you what  
019:089,33[M  ]| you are to$9$ read.  
019:089,34[B  ]| ~~ I think so$5#2$ too ~~ But I am surprised to$9$ hear you ask  
019:089,35[B  ]| about Ibsen.  I did not imagine you took the least interest in$4$  
019:089,36[B  ]| these matters.   
019:090,01['  ]| Mrs*Daedalus pushed her iron smoothly over a white  
019:090,02['  ]| petticoat in$4$ time to$4$ the current of her memory.   
019:090,03[M  ]| ~~ Well, of course, I do not speak about it but I am not so$5#1$  
019:090,04[M  ]| indifferent. ~~ Before I married your father I used to$9$ read  
019:090,05[M  ]| a great deal.  I used to$9$ take an interest in$4$ all kinds of new  
019:090,06[M  ]| plays.   
019:090,07[B  ]| ~~ But since you married neither of you so$5#1$ much as bought  
019:090,08[B  ]| a single book! 
019:090,09[M  ]| ~~ Well, you see, Stephen, your father is not like$4$ you:  he  
019:090,10[M  ]| takes no$2$ interest in$4$ that$6#2$ sort of thing ~~ .  When he was young  
019:090,11[M  ]| he told me he used to$9$ spend all his time out after the hounds  
019:090,12[M  ]| or rowing on$4$ the Lee.  He went in$5$ for$4$ athletics.  
019:090,13[B  ]| ~~ I suspect what he went in$5$ for$4$, 
019:090,13['  ]| said Stephen irreverently.   
019:090,14[B  ]| I know he does not care a jack straw about what I think or  
019:090,15[B  ]| what I write.   
019:090,16[M  ]| ~~ He wants to$9$ see you make your way, get on$5$ in$4$ life, 
019:090,16['  ]| said  
019:090,17['  ]| his mother defensively.  
019:090,17[M  ]| That$6#2$ is his ambition.  You should not  
019:090,18[M  ]| blame him for$4$ that$6#2$.   
019:090,19[B  ]| No$7$, no$7$, no$7$.  But it may not be my ambition.  That$6#2$ kind  
019:090,20[B  ]| of life I often loathe:  I find it ugly and cowardly.  
019:090,21[M  ]| ~~ Of course life is not what I used to$9$ think it was when I  
019:090,22[M  ]| was a young girl.  That$6#2$ is why I would like$1$ to$9$ read some great  
019:090,23[M  ]| writer, to$9$ see what ideal of life he has ~~ am not I right in$4$ saying  
019:090,24[M  ]| ""ideal""? 
019:090,25[B  ]| ~~ Yes, but ~~  
019:090,26[M  ]| ~~ Because sometimes ~~ not that$3$ I grumble at the lot  
019:090,27[M  ]| Almighty* God has given me and I have more or less a happy  
019:090,28[M  ]| life with your father ~~ but sometimes I feel that$3$ I want to$9$  
019:090,29[M  ]| leave this actual life and enter another ~~ for$4$ a time.   
019:090,30[B  ]| ~~ But that$6#2$ is wrong:  that$6#2$ is the great mistake everyone  
019:090,31[B  ]| makes.  Art is not an escape from life! 
019:090,32[M  ]| ~~ No$7$? 
019:090,33[B  ]| ~~ You evidently were not listening to$4$ what I said or else  
019:090,34[B  ]| you did not understand what I said.  Art is not an escape  
019:090,35[B  ]| from life.  It is just the very opposite.  Art, on$4$ the contrary, 
019:090,36[B  ]| is the very central expression of life.  An artist is not a fellow  
019:091,01[B  ]| who$6#1$ dangles a mechanical heaven before the public.  The  
019:091,02[B  ]| priest does that$6#2$.  The artist affirms out of the fulness of his  
019:091,03[B  ]| own life, he creates ~~ Do you understand? 
019:091,04['  ]| And so$5#2$ on$5$.  A day or two afterwards Stephen gave his  
019:091,05['  ]| mother a few of the plays to$9$ read.  She read them with great  
019:091,06['  ]| interest and found Nora*Helmer a charming character.  Dr*Stockmann  
019:091,07['  ]| she admired but her admiration was naturally 
019:091,08['  ]| checked by$4$ her son's light-heartedly blasphemous description  
019:091,09['  ]| of that$6#2$ stout burgher as 
019:091,09[B  ]| ""Jesus in$4$ a frock-coat"".  
019:091,09['  ]| But the  
019:091,10['  ]| play which$6#1$ she preferred to$4$ all others was the \Wild*Duck\.   
019:091,11['  ]| Of it she spoke readily and on$4$ her own initiative; it had  
019:091,12['  ]| moved her deeply.  Stephen, to$9$ escape a charge of hot-headedness  
019:091,13['  ]| and partizanship, did not encourage her to$4$ an  
019:091,14['  ]| open record of her feelings.   
019:091,15[B  ]| ~~ I hope you are not going to$9$ mention Little*Nell in$4$ the  
019:091,16[B  ]| \Old*Curiosity*Shop\.  
019:091,17[M  ]| ~~ Of course I like$1$ Dickens too but I can see a great difference  
019:091,18[M  ]| between Little* Nell and that$6#2$ poor little creature ~~ what  
019:091,19[M  ]| is her name? 
019:091,20[B  ]| ~~ Hedvig*Ekdal? 
019:091,21[M  ]| ~~ Hedvig, yes ~~ It is so$5#1$ sad:  it is terrible to$9$ read it even ~~  
019:091,22[M  ]| I quite agree with you that$3$ Ibsen is a wonderful writer.   
019:091,23[B  ]| ~~ Really? 
019:091,24[M  ]| ~~ Yes, really.  His plays have impressed me very much.   
019:091,25[B  ]| ~~ Do you think he is immoral? 
019:091,26[M  ]| ~~ Of course, you know, Stephen, he treats of subjects ~~  
019:091,27[M  ]| of which$6#1$ I know very little myself ~~ subjects ~~  
019:091,28[B  ]| ~~ Subjects which$6#1$, you think, should never be talked  
019:091,29[B  ]| about? 
019:091,30[M  ]| ~~ Well, that$6#2$ was the old people's idea but I do not know if  
019:091,31[M  ]| it was right.  I do not know if it is good for$4$ people to$9$ be entirely  
019:091,32[M  ]| ignorant ~~  
019:091,33[B  ]| ~~ Then why not treat them openly? 
019:091,34[M  ]| ~~ I think it might do harm to$4$ some people ~~ uneducated, 
019:091,35[M  ]| unbalanced people.  People's natures are so$5#1$ different.  You  
019:091,36[M  ]| perhaps ~~  
019:092,01[B  ]| O, never mind me. ~~  Do you think these plays are  
019:092,02[B  ]| unfit for$4$ people to$9$ read? 
019:092,03[M  ]| ~~ No$7$, I think they are magnificent plays indeed.  
019:092,04[B  ]| ~~ And not immoral? 
019:092,05[M  ]| ~~ I think that$3$ Ibsen ~~ has an extraordinary knowledge  
019:092,06[M  ]| of human nature ~~ And I think that$3$ human nature is a  
019:092,07[M  ]| very extraordinary thing sometimes.   
019:092,08['  ]| Stephen had to$9$ be contented with this well-worn generality  
019:092,09['  ]| as he recognised in$4$ it a genuine sentiment.  His mother, in$4$  
019:092,10['  ]| fact, had so$5#1$ far evengelised herself that$3$ she undertook the  
019:092,11['  ]| duties of missioner to$4$ the heathen; that$6#2$ is to$9$ say, she offered  
019:092,12['  ]| some the plays to$4$ her husband to$9$ read.  He listened to$4$ her  
019:092,13['  ]| praises with a somewhat startled air, observing no$2$ feature  
019:092,14['  ]| of her face, his eyeglass screwed into an astonished eye and  
019:092,15['  ]| his mouth poised in$4$ naif surprise.  He was always interested  
019:092,16['  ]| in$4$ novelties, childishly interested and receptive, and this 
019:092,17['  ]| new name and the phenomena it had produced in$4$ his house  
019:092,18['  ]| were novelties for$4$ him.  He made no$2$ attempt to$9$ discredit his  
019:092,19['  ]| wife's novel development but he resented both that$3$ he should  
019:092,20['  ]| have achieved it unaided by$4$ him and that$3$ she should be able  
019:092,21['  ]| thereby to$9$ act as intermediary between him and his son.  He  
019:092,22['  ]| condemned as inopportune but not discredited his son's  
019:092,23['  ]| wayward researches into strange literature and, though a  
019:092,24['  ]| similar taste was not discoverable in$4$ him, he was prepared  
019:092,25['  ]| to$9$ commit that$6#2$ most pious of heroisms namely, the extension  
019:092,26['  ]| of one's sympathies late in$4$ life in$4$ deference to$4$ the advocacy  
019:092,27['  ]| of a junior.  Following the custom of certain old-fashioned  
019:092,28['  ]| people who$6#1$ can never understand why their patronage or  
019:092,29['  ]| judgments should put men of letters into a rage he chose his  
019:092,30['  ]| play from the title.  A metaphor is a vice that$6#1$ attracts the  
019:092,31['  ]| dull mind by$4$ reason of its aptness and repels the too serious  
019:092,32['  ]| mind by$4$ reason of its falsity and danger so$3$ that$3$, after all, 
019:092,33['  ]| there is something to$9$ be said, nothing voluminous perhaps, 
019:092,34['  ]| but at least a word of concession for$4$ that$6#2$ class of society which$6#1$  
019:092,35['  ]| in$4$ literature as in$4$ everything else goes always with its four 
019:092,36['  ]| feet on$4$ the ground.  Mr*Daedalus, anyhow, suspected that$3$  
019:093,01['  ]| \A*Doll's*House\ would be a triviality in$4$ the manner of \Little*Lord*Fauntleroy\  
019:093,02['  ]| and, as he had never been even unofficially  
019:093,03['  ]| a member of that$6#2$ international society which$6#1$ collects and  
019:093,04['  ]| examines psychical phenomena, he decided that$3$ \Ghosts\ would  
019:093,05['  ]| probably be some uninteresting story about a haunted house.   
019:093,06['  ]| He chose the \League*of*Youth\ in$4$ which$6#1$ he hoped to$9$ find the  
019:093,07['  ]| reminiscences of like-minded roysterers and, after reading  
019:093,08['  ]| through two acts of provincial intrigue, abandoned the  
019:093,09['  ]| enterprise as tedious.  He had promised himself arguing  
019:093,10['  ]| from the alienated attitudes and half-deferential half-word  
019:093,11['  ]| of pressmen at the mention of the name, a certain extravagance, 
019:093,12['  ]| perhaps an anomalous torridity of the North and 
019:093,13['  ]| though the name beneath Ibsen's photograph never failed  
019:093,14['  ]| to$9$ reawaken his sense of wonder, the upright line of the ""b""  
019:093,15['  ]| running so$5#1$ strangely beside the initial letter as to$9$ suspend  
019:093,16['  ]| the mind amid incertitudes for$4$ some oblivious instants, 
019:093,17['  ]| the final impression made upon$4$ him by$4$ the figure to$4$ which$6#1$  
019:093,18['  ]| the name was affixed, a figure which$6#1$ he associated with a  
019:093,19['  ]| solicitor's or a stockbroker's office in$4$ Dame*St, was an  
019:093,20['  ]| impression of relief mixed with  
019:093,21['  ]| disappointment, the relief for$4$ his son's sake prevailing  
019:093,22['  ]| dutifully over his own slight but real disappointment.  So$3$  
019:093,23['  ]| that$3$ from neither of Stephen's parents did respectability get  
019:093,24['  ]| full allegiance.  
019:093,25['  ]| A week before the date fixed for$4$ the reading of the paper  
019:093,26['  ]| Stephen consigned a small packet covered with neat characters  
019:093,27['  ]| into the Auditor's hands.  McCann smacked his lips  
019:093,28['  ]| and put the manuscript into the inside pocket of his coat: 
019:093,29[H  ]| ~~ I will$1$ read this to*night and I will$1$ see you here at the same  
019:093,30[H  ]| hour tomorrow.  I think I know all that$6#1$ is in$4$ it beforehand.   
019:093,31['  ]| The next afternoon McCann reported: 
019:093,32[H  ]| ~~ Well, I have read your paper.  
019:093,33[B  ]| ~~ Well? 
019:093,34[H  ]| ~~ Brilliantly written ~~ a bit strong, it seems to$4$ me.   
019:093,35[H  ]| However I gave it to$4$ the President this morning to$9$ read.  
019:093,36[B  ]| ~~ What for$4$? 
019:094,01[H  ]| ~~ All the papers must be submitted to$4$ him first for$4$ approval, 
019:094,02[H  ]| you know.   
019:094,03[B  ]| ~~ Do you mean to$9$ say, 
019:094,03['  ]| said Stephen scornfully, 
019:094,03[B  ]| that$3$ the  
019:094,04[B  ]| President must approve of my paper before I can read it to$4$  
019:094,05[B  ]| your society! 
019:094,06[H  ]| ~~ Yes.  He is the Censor.  
019:094,07[B  ]| ~~ What a valuable society! 
019:094,08[H  ]| ~~ Why not? 
019:094,09[B  ]| ~~ It is only child's play, man.  You remind me of children  
019:094,10[B  ]| in$4$ the nursery.   
019:094,11[H  ]| ~~ Can not be helped.  We must take what we can get.   
019:094,12[B  ]| ~~ Why not put up$5$ the sutters at once? ~~  
019:094,13[H  ]| ~~ Well, it is valuable.  It trains young men for$4$ public  
019:094,14[H  ]| speaking ~~ for$4$ the bar and the political platform.  
019:094,15[B  ]| ~~ Mr*Daniel could say as much for$4$ his charades.  
019:094,16[H  ]| ~~ I daresay he could.  
019:094,17[B  ]| ~~ So$3$ this Censor of yours is inspecting my essay? 
019:094,18[H  ]| ~~ Well.  He is liberal-minded ~~  
019:094,19[B  ]| ~~ Ay.  
019:094,20['  ]| While the two young men were holding this conversation  
019:094,21['  ]| on$4$ the steps of the Library, Whelan, the College orator  
019:094,22['  ]| came up$5$ to$4$ them.  This suave rotund young man, who$6#1$ was  
019:094,23['  ]| the Secretary of the Society, was reading for$4$ the Bar.  His eyes 
019:094,24['  ]| regarded Stephen now with mild, envious horror and  
019:094,25['  ]| he forgot all his baggage from Attica: 
019:094,26[N  ]| ~~ Your essay is tabu, Daedalus.   
019:094,27[B  ]| ~~ Who$6#2$ said so$5#2$? 
019:094,28[N  ]| ~~ The*Very*Reverend*Dr*Dillon.   
019:094,29['  ]| The delivery of this news was followed by$4$ a silence during  
019:094,30['  ]| which$6#1$ Whelan slowly moistened his lower lip with saliva  
019:094,31['  ]| from his tongue and McCann made ready to$9$ shrug his  
019:094,32['  ]| shoulders.   
019:094,33[B  ]| ~~ Where is the damned old fool?  
019:094,33['  ]| said the essayist promptly.   
019:095,01['  ]| Whelan blushed and pointed his thumb over his shoulder.   
019:095,02['  ]| Stephen in$4$ a moment was half across the quadrangle.   
019:095,03['  ]| McCann called after him: 
019:095,04[H  ]| ~~ Where are you going? 
019:095,05['  ]| Stephen halted but, discovering that$3$ he was too angry to$9$  
019:095,06['  ]| trust himself to$9$ speak, he merely pointed in$4$ the direction of  
019:095,07['  ]| the College, and went forward quickly.   
019:095,08[XB ]| So$3$ after all his trouble, thinking out his essay and composing  
019:095,09[XB ]| his periods, this old fogey was about to$9$ prohibit it!   
019:095,10['  ]| His indignation settled into a mood of politic contempt as he  
019:095,11['  ]| crossed the Green.  The clock in$4$ the hall of the College  
019:095,12['  ]| pointed to$4$ half past three as Stephen addressed the doddering  
019:095,13['  ]| door-porter.  He had to$9$ speak twice, the second time  
019:095,14['  ]| with a distinct, separated enunciation, for$3$ the door-porter  
019:095,15['  ]| was rather stupid and deaf: 
019:095,16[B  ]| ~~ Can ~~ I ~~ see ~~ the ~~ President? 
019:095,17['  ]| The President was not in$4$ his room:  he was saying  
019:095,18['  ]| his office in$4$ the garden.  Stephen went out into the garden and  
019:095,19['  ]| went down towards the ball-alley.  A small figure wrapped  
019:095,20['  ]| in$4$ a loose Spanish-looking black cloak presented its back 
019:095,21['  ]| to$4$ him near the far end of the side-walk.  The figure went  
019:095,22['  ]| on$5$ slowly to$4$ the end of the walk, halted there for$4$ a few  
019:095,23['  ]| moments, and then turning about presented to$4$ him over the  
019:095,24['  ]| edge of a breviary a neat round head covered with curly grey  
019:095,25['  ]| hair and a very wrinkled face of an indescribable colour:  the  
019:095,26['  ]| upper part was the colour of putty and the lower part was  
019:095,27['  ]| shot with slate colour.  The President came slowly down the  
019:095,28['  ]| side-walk, in$4$ his capacious cloak, noiselessly moving his grey  
019:095,29['  ]| lips as he said his office.  At the end of the walk he halted  
019:095,30['  ]| again and looked inquiringly at Stephen.  Stephen raised his  
019:095,31['  ]| cap and said 
019:095,31[B  ]| ""Good evening, sir.""  
019:095,31['  ]| The President answered  
019:095,32['  ]| with the smile which$6#1$ a pretty girl gives when she receives  
019:095,33['  ]| some compliment which$6#1$ puzzles her ~~ a ""winning"" smile: 
019:095,34[O  ]| ~~ What can I do for$4$ you?  
019:095,34['  ]| he asked in$4$ a  
019:095,35['  ]| rich deep calculated voice.  
019:095,36[B  ]| ~~ I understand, 
019:095,36['  ]| said Stephen, 
019:095,36[B  ]| that$3$ you wish to$9$ see me  
019:096,01[B  ]| about my essay ~~ an essay I have written for$4$ the Debating*Society.  
019:096,02[B  ]| 
019:096,03[O  ]| ~~ O, you are Mr*Daedalus, 
019:096,03['  ]| said the President more  
019:096,04['  ]| seriously but still agreeably.  
019:096,05[B  ]| ~~ Perhaps I am disturbing ~~  
019:096,06[O  ]| ~~ No$7$, I have finished my office, 
019:096,06['  ]| said the President.   
019:096,07['  ]| He began to$9$ walk slowly down the path at such  
019:096,08['  ]| a pace as implied invitation.  Stephen kept therefore at his  
019:096,09['  ]| side.  
019:096,10[O  ]| ~~ I admire the style of your paper, 
019:096,10['  ]| he said firmly, 
019:096,10[O  ]| very  
019:096,11[O  ]| much but I do not approve at all of your theories.  I am  
019:096,12[O  ]| afraid I cannot allow you to$9$ read your paper before the  
019:096,13[O  ]| Society.  
019:096,14['  ]| They walked on$5$ to$4$ the end of the path, without speaking.   
019:096,15['  ]| Then Stephen said: 
019:096,16[B  ]| ~~ Why, sir? 
019:096,17[O  ]| ~~ I cannot encourage you to$9$ disseminate such theories  
019:096,18[O  ]| among the young men in$4$ this college.  
019:096,19[B  ]| ~~ You think my theory of art is a false one? 
019:096,20[O  ]| ~~ It is certainly not the theory of art which$6#1$ is respected  
019:096,21[O  ]| in$4$ this college.  
019:096,22[B  ]| ~~ I agree with that$6#2$, 
019:096,22['  ]| said Stephen.  
019:096,23[O  ]| ~~ On$4$ the contrary, it represents the sum-total of modern  
019:096,24[O  ]| unrest and modern freethinking.  The authors you quote as  
019:096,25[O  ]| examples, those you seem to$9$ admire ~~ 
019:096,26[B  ]| ~~ Aquinas? 
019:096,27[O  ]| ~~ Not Aquinas; I have to$9$ speak of him in$4$ a moment.  But Ibsen, 
019:096,28[O  ]| Maeterlinck ~~ these atheistic writers ~~  
019:096,29[B  ]| ~~ You do not like$1$ ~~ 
019:096,30[O  ]| ~~ I am surprised that$3$ any student of this college could  
019:096,31[O  ]| find anything to$9$ admire in$4$ such writers, writers who$6#1$ usurp  
019:096,32[O  ]| the name of poet, who$6#1$ openly profess their atheistic doctrines  
019:096,33[O  ]| and fill the minds of their readers with all the garbage of  
019:096,34[O  ]| modern society.  That$6#2$ is not art.   
019:096,35[B  ]| ~~ Even admitting the corruption you speak of I see  
019:096,36[B  ]| nothing unlawful in$4$ examination of corruption.   
019:097,01[O  ]| ~~ Yes, it may be lawful ~~ for$4$ the scientist, for$4$ the reformer ~~ 
019:097,02[O  ]|  
019:097,03[B  ]| ~~ Why not for$4$ the poet too?  Dante surely examines and  
019:097,04[B  ]| upbraids society.  
019:097,05[O  ]| ~~ Ah, yes, 
019:097,05['  ]| said the President explanatorily, 
019:097,05[O  ]| with a moral  
019:097,06[O  ]| purpose in$4$ view:  Dante was a great poet.   
019:097,07[B  ]| ~~ Ibsen is also a great poet.   
019:097,08[O  ]| ~~ You cannot compare Dante and Ibsen.  
019:097,09[B  ]| ~~ I am not doing so$5#2$.  
019:097,10[O  ]| ~~ Dante, the lofty upholder of beauty, the greatest of  
019:097,11[O  ]| Italian poets, and Ibsen, the writer above and beyond all  
019:097,12[O  ]| others, Ibsen and Zola, who$6#1$ seek to$9$ degreade their art, who$6#1$  
019:097,13[O  ]| pander to$4$ a corrupt taste ~~ 
019:097,14[B  ]| ~~ But \you\ are comparing them! 
019:097,15[O  ]| ~~ No$7$, you cannot compare them.  One has a high moral  
019:097,16[O  ]| aim ~~ he ennobles the human race:  the other degrades it.  
019:097,17[B  ]| ~~ The lack of specific code of moral conventions does  
019:097,18[B  ]| not degrade the poet, in$4$ my opinion.   
019:097,19[O  ]| ~~ Ah, if he were to$9$ examine even the basest things, 
019:097,19['  ]| said  
019:097,20['  ]| the President with a suggestion of tolerance in$4$ store, 
019:097,21[O  ]| it would be different if he were to$9$ examine and them show  
019:097,22[O  ]| men the way to$9$ purify themselves.   
019:097,23[B  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is for$4$ the Salvationists, 
019:097,23['  ]| said Stephen.  
019:097,24[O  ]| ~~ Do you mean ~~ 
019:097,25[B  ]| ~~ I mean that$3$ Ibsen's account of modern society is as  
019:097,26[B  ]| genuinely ironical as Newman's account of English*Protestant  
019:097,27[B  ]| morality and belief.   
019:097,28[O  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ may be, 
019:097,28['  ]| said the President appeased by$4$ the  
019:097,29['  ]| conjunction.  
019:097,30[B  ]| ~~ And as free from any missionary intention.   
019:097,31['  ]| The President was silent.   
019:097,32[B  ]| ~~ It is a question of temper.  Newman could refrain from  
019:097,33[B  ]| writing his \Apologia\ for$4$ twenty years.  
019:097,34[O  ]| ~~ But when he came out on$4$ him!  
019:097,34['  ]| said the President with a  
019:097,35['  ]| chuckle and an expressive incompletion of the phrase.  
019:097,35[O  ]| Poor  
019:097,36[O  ]| Kingsley!   
019:098,01[B  ]| ~~ It is all a question of temper ~~ one's attitude towards  
019:098,02[B  ]| society whether one is a poet or critic.   
019:098,03[O  ]| ~~ O, yes.   
019:098,04[B  ]| ~~ Ibsen has the temper of an archangel.  
019:098,05[O  ]| ~~ It may be:  but I have always believed that$3$ he was a  
019:098,06[O  ]| fierce realist like$4$ Zola with some kind of a new doctrine to$9$  
019:098,07[O  ]| preach.  
019:098,08[B  ]| ~~ You were mistaken, sir.  
019:098,09[O  ]| ~~ This is the general opinion.   
019:098,10[B  ]| ~~ A mistaken one.   
019:098,11[O  ]| ~~ I understood he had some doctrine or other ~~ a social  
019:098,12[O  ]| doctrine, free living, and an artistic doctrine, unbridled  
019:098,13[O  ]| licence ~~ so$5#1$ much so$5#2$ that$3$ the public will$1$ not tolerate  
019:098,14[O  ]| his plays on$4$ the stage and that$3$ you cannot name him even in$4$  
019:098,15[O  ]| mixed society.  
019:098,16[B  ]| ~~ Where have you seen this? 
019:098,17[O  ]| ~~ O, everywhere ~~ in$4$ the papers.  
019:098,18[B  ]| ~~ This is a serious argument, 
019:098,18['  ]| said Stephen reprovingly.   
019:098,19['  ]| The President far from resenting this hardy statement  
019:098,20['  ]| seemed to$9$ bow to$4$ its justice:  no-one could have a poorer  
019:098,21['  ]| opinion of the half-educated journalism of the present day  
019:098,22['  ]| than he had and he certainly would not allow a newspaper  
019:098,23['  ]| to$9$ dictate criticism to$4$ him.  At the same time there was such  
019:098,24['  ]| a unanimity of opinion everywhere about Ibsen that$3$ he  
019:098,25['  ]| imagined ~~ 
019:098,26[B  ]| ~~ May I ask you if you have read much of his writing?   
019:098,27['  ]| asked Stephen.  
019:098,28[O  ]| ~~ Well, no$7$.  ~~ I must say I ~~ 
019:098,29[B  ]| ~~ May I ask you if you have read even a single line? 
019:098,30[O  ]| ~~ Well, no$7$ ~~ I must admit ~~ 
019:098,31[B  ]| ~~ And surely you do not think it right to$9$ pass judgment  
019:098,32[B  ]| on$4$ a writer a single line of whose writing you have never read? 
019:098,33[O  ]| ~~ Yes, I must admit that$6#2$.  
019:098,34['  ]| Stephen hesitated after this first success.  The President  
019:098,35['  ]| resumed: 
019:098,36[O  ]| ~~ I am very interested in$4$ the enthusiasm you show for$4$  
019:099,01[O  ]| this writer.  I have never had any opportunity to$9$ read Ibsen  
019:099,02[O  ]| myself but I know that$3$ he enjoys a great reputation.  What  
019:099,03[O  ]| you say of him, I must confess, alters my views of him 
019:099,04[O  ]| considerably.  Some day perhaps I shall ~~       
019:099,05[B  ]| ~~ I can lend you some of the plays if you like$1$, sir, 
019:099,05['  ]| said  
019:099,06['  ]| Stephen with imprudent simplicity.   
019:099,07[O  ]| ~~ Can you indeed? 
019:099,08['  ]| Both paused for$4$ an instant:  then ~~  
019:099,09[B  ]| ~~ You will$1$ see that$3$ he is a great poet and a great artist, 
019:099,10['  ]| said Stephen.  
019:099,11[O  ]| ~~ I shall be very interested, 
019:099,11['  ]| said the President with an  
019:099,12['  ]| amiable intention, 
019:099,12[O  ]| to$9$ read some of his work for$4$ myself, I  
019:099,13[O  ]| certainly shall.  
019:099,14[XX ]| Stephen had an impulse to$9$ say 
019:099,14[XX ]| ""Excuse me for$4$ five minutes  
019:099,15['  ]| while I send a telegram to$4$ Christiania"" 
019:099,15['  ]| but he resisted his  
019:099,16['  ]| impulse.  During the interview he had occasion more than  
019:099,17['  ]| once to$9$ put severe shackles on$4$ his importunate devil within  
019:099,18['  ]| him whose appetite was on$4$ edge for$4$ the farcical.  The President  
019:099,19['  ]| was beginning to$9$ exhibit the liberal side of his character, 
019:099,20['  ]| but with priestly cautiousness.   
019:099,21[O  ]| ~~ Yes, I shall be most interested.  Your opinions are  
019:099,22[O  ]| somewhat strange.  Do you intend to$9$ publish this essay? 
019:099,23[B  ]| ~~ Publish it! 
019:099,24[O  ]| ~~ I should not care for$4$ anyone to$9$ identify the ideas in$4$  
019:099,25[O  ]| your essay with the teaching in$4$ our college.  We receive this  
019:099,26[O  ]| college in$4$ trust.  
019:099,27[B  ]| ~~ But you are not supposed to$9$ be responsible for$4$ everything  
019:099,28[B  ]| a student in$4$ your college thinks or says.  
019:099,29[O  ]| ~~ No$7$, of course not ~~ but, reading your essay and  
019:099,30[O  ]| knowing you came from our college, people would suppose  
019:099,31[O  ]| that$3$ we inculcated such ideas here.   
019:099,32[B  ]| ~~ Surely a student of this college can pursue a special line  
019:099,33[B  ]| of study if he chooses.   
019:099,34[O  ]| ~~ It is just that$6#2$ which$6#1$ we always try to$9$ encourage in$4$ our  
019:099,35[O  ]| students but your study, it seems to$4$ me, leads you to$9$ adopt  
019:099,36[O  ]| very revolutionary ~~ very revolutionary theories.  
019:100,01[B  ]| ~~ If I were to$9$ publish tomorrow a very revolutionary  
019:100,02[B  ]| pamphlet on$4$ the means of avoiding potato-blight would you  
019:100,03[B  ]| consider yourself responsible for$4$ my theory? 
019:100,04[O  ]| ~~ No$7$, no$7$, of course not ~~ but then this is not a school of  
019:100,05[O  ]| agriculture.  
019:100,06[B  ]| ~~ Neither is it a school of dramaturgy, answered Stephen.   
019:100,07[O  ]| ~~ Your argument is not so$5#1$ conclusive as it seems, said the  
019:100,08[O  ]| President after a short pause.  However I am glad to$9$ see that$3$  
019:100,09[O  ]| your attitude towards your subject is so$5#1$ genuinely serious.  At  
019:100,10[O  ]| the same time you must admit that$3$ this theory you have ~~ if  
019:100,11[O  ]| pushed to$4$ its logical conclusion ~~ would emancipate the poet  
019:100,12[O  ]| from all moral laws.  I notice too that$3$ in$4$ your essay you allude  
019:100,13[O  ]| satirically to$4$ what you call the ""antique"" theory ~~ the theory, 
019:100,14[O  ]| namely, that$3$ the drama should have special ethical aims, 
019:100,15[O  ]| that$3$ it should instruct, elevate and amuse.  I suppose you  
019:100,16[O  ]| mean Art for$4$ Art's sake.  
019:100,17[B  ]| ~~ I have only pushed to$4$ its logical conclusion the definition  
019:100,18[B  ]| Aquinas has given of the beautiful.  
019:100,19[O  ]| ~~ Aquinas? 
019:100,20[Z  ]| ~~ \7Pulcra 7sunt 7quae 7visa 7placent\.  
019:100,20[B  ]| He seems to$9$ regard the beautiful  
019:100,21[B  ]| as that$6#2$ which$6#1$ satisfies the esthetic appetite and nothing  
019:100,22[B  ]| more ~~ that$3$ the mere apprehension of which$6#1$ pleases ~~  
019:100,23[O  ]| ~~ But he means the sublime ~~ that$6#2$ which$6#1$ leads man  
019:100,24[O  ]| upwards.  
019:100,25[B  ]| ~~ His remark would apply to$4$ a Dutch painter's representation  
019:100,26[B  ]| of a plate of onions.   
019:100,27[O  ]| ~~ No$7$, no$7$; that$6#2$ which$6#1$ pleases the soul in$4$ a state of sanctification , 
019:100,28[O  ]| the soul seeking its spiritual good.  
019:100,29[B  ]| ~~ Aquinas' definition of the good is an unsafe basis of operations:   
019:100,30[B  ]| it is very wide.  He seems to$4$ me almost ironical in$4$ his  
019:100,31[B  ]| treatment of the ""appetites"".  
019:100,32['  ]| The President scratched his head a little dubiously ~~  
019:100,33[O  ]| ~~ Of course Aquinas is an extraordinary mind, 
019:100,33['  ]| he murmured, 
019:100,34[O  ]| the greatest doctor of the Church:  but he requires  
019:100,35[O  ]| immense interpretation.  There are parts of Aquinas which$6#1$  
019:100,36[O  ]| no$2$ priest would think of announcing in$4$ the pulpit.  
019:101,01[B  ]| ~~ But what if I, as an artist, refuse to$9$ accept the cautions  
019:101,02[B  ]| which$6#1$ are considered necessary for$4$ those who$6#1$ are still in$4$ a  
019:101,03[B  ]| state of original stupidity? 
019:101,04[O  ]| ~~ I believe you are sincere but I will$1$ tell you this as an  
019:101,05[O  ]| older human being than you are and as a man of some experience:   
019:101,06[O  ]| the cult of beauty is difficult.  Estheticism often  
019:101,07[O  ]| begins well only to$9$ end in$4$ the vilest abominations of which$6#1$ 
019:101,08[O  ]| ~~ 
019:101,09[Z  ]| ~~ \7Ad 7pulcritudinem 7tria 7requiruntur\.  
019:101,10[O  ]| ~~ It is insidious, it creeps into the mind, little by$4$ little  
019:101,11[O  ]| ~~ 
019:101,12[Z  ]| ~~ \7Integritas, 7consonantia, 7clarita\.  
019:101,12[B  ]| There seems to$4$ me ~~ to$9$  
019:101,13[B  ]| be effulgence in$4$ that$6#2$ theory instead of danger.  The intelligent  
019:101,14[B  ]| nature apprehends it at once.  
019:101,15[O  ]| ~~ S%*Thomas of course ~~  
019:101,16[B  ]| ~~ Aquinas is certainly on$4$ the side of capable artist.  I  
019:101,17[B  ]| hear no$2$ mention of instruction or elevation.  
019:101,18[O  ]| ~~ To$9$ support Ibsenism on$4$ Aquinas seems to$4$ me somewhat  
019:101,19[O  ]| paradoxical.  Young men often substitute brillian paradox  
019:101,20[O  ]| for$4$ conviction.   
019:101,21[B  ]| ~~ My conviction has led me nowhere:  my theory states  
019:101,22[B  ]| itself.   
019:101,23[O  ]| ~~ Ah, you are a paradoxist, 
019:101,23['  ]| said the President smiling  
019:101,24['  ]| with gentle satisfaction.  
019:101,24[O  ]| I can see that$6#2$  ~~ And there is  
019:101,25[O  ]| another thing ~~ a question of taste perhaps rather than anything  
019:101,26[O  ]| else ~~ which$6#1$ makes me think your theory juvenile.   
019:101,27[O  ]| You do not seem to$9$ understand the importance of the classical  
019:101,28[O  ]| drama ~~ Of course in$4$ his own line Ibsen also may be an  
019:101,29[O  ]| admirable writer ~~ 
019:101,30[B  ]| ~~ But, allow me, sir, 
019:101,30['  ]| said Stephen.  
019:101,30[B  ]| My entire esteem is for$4$  
019:101,31[B  ]| the classical temper in$4$ art.  Surely you must remember that$3$  
019:101,32[B  ]| I said ~~ 
019:101,33[O  ]| ~ So$5#1$ far as I can remember, 
019:101,33['  ]| said the President lifting to$4$ the  
019:101,34['  ]| pale sky a faintly smiling face on$4$ which$6#1$ memory endeavoured  
019:101,35['  ]| to$9$ bring a vacuous amiability to$4$ book, 
019:101,35[O  ]| so$5#1$ far as I can remember  
019:101,36[O  ]| you treated the Greek drama ~~ the classical temper ~~  
019:102,01[O  ]| very summarily indeed, with a kind of juvenile ~~ inpudence, 
019:102,02[O  ]| shall I say? 
019:102,03[B  ]| ~~ But the Greek drama is heroic, monstruous.   
019:102,04[B  ]| Eschylus is not a classical writer! 
019:102,05[O  ]| ~~ I told you you were a paradoxist, Mr*Daedalus.  You  
019:102,06[O  ]| wish to$9$ upset centuries of literary criticism by$4$ a brilliant turn  
019:102,07[O  ]| of speech, by$4$ a paradox.   
019:102,08[B  ]| ~~ I use the word ""classical"" in$4$ a certain sense, with a certain  
019:102,09[B  ]| definite meaning, that$6#2$ is all.  
019:102,10[O  ]| ~~ But you cannot use any terminology you like$1$.  
019:102,11[B  ]| ~~ I have not changed the terms.  I have explained them.   
019:102,12[B  ]| By$4$ ""classical"" I mean the slow elaborate patience of the art of  
019:102,13[B  ]| satisfaction.  The heroic, the fabulous, I call romantic.   
019:102,14[B  ]| Menander perhaps, I do not know ~~ 
019:102,15[O  ]| ~~ All the world recognises Eschylus as a supreme classical  
019:102,16[O  ]| dramatist.   
019:102,17[B  ]| ~~ O, the world of professors whom he helps to$9$ feed ~~ 
019:102,18[O  ]| ~~ Competetent critics, 
019:102,18['  ]| said the President severely, 
019:102,18[O  ]| men of  
019:102,19[O  ]| the highest culture.  And even the public themselves can  
019:102,20[O  ]| appreciate him.  I have read, I think, in$4$ some ~~ a newspaper, 
019:102,21[O  ]| I think it was ~~ that$3$ Irving, the great actor, Henry*Irving  
019:102,22[O  ]| produced one of his plays in$4$ London and that$3$ the  
019:102,23[O  ]| London public flocked to$9$ see it.  
019:102,24[B  ]| ~~ From curiosity.  The London public will$1$ flock to$9$ see  
019:102,25[B  ]| anything new or strange.  If Irving were to$9$ give an imitation  
019:102,26[B  ]| of a hard-boiled egg they would flock to$9$ see it.   
019:102,27['  ]| The President received this absurdity with unflenching  
019:102,28['  ]| gravity and when he had come to$4$ the end of the path, he  
019:102,29['  ]| halted for$4$ a few instants before leading the way to$4$ the house.   
019:102,30[O  ]| ~~ I do not predict much success for$4$ your advocacy in$4$ this  
019:102,31[O  ]| country, 
019:102,31['  ]| he said generally.  
019:102,31[O  ]| Our people have their faith and  
019:102,32[O  ]| they are happy.  They are faithful to$4$ their Church and the  
019:102,33[O  ]| Church is sufficient for$4$ them.  Even for$4$ the profane world  
019:102,34[O  ]| these modern pessimistic writers are a little too ~~ too  
019:102,35[O  ]| much.  
019:102,36['  ]| With his scornful mind scampering from Clonliffe*College  
019:103,01['  ]| to$4$ Mullingar*Stephen strove to$9$ make himself ready for$4$ some  
019:103,02['  ]| definite compact.  The President had carefully brought the  
019:103,03['  ]| interview into the region of chattiness.  
019:103,04[O  ]| ~~ Yes, we are happy.  Even the English people have begun  
019:103,05[O  ]| to$9$ see the folly of these morbid tragedies, these wretched unhappy, 
019:103,06[O  ]| unhealthy tragedies.  I read the other day that$3$ some  
019:103,07[O  ]| playwright had to$9$ change the last act of his play because it  
019:103,08[O  ]| ended in$4$ catastrophe ~~ some sordid murder or suicide or  
019:103,09[O  ]| death.  
019:103,10[B  ]| ~~ Why not make death a capital offence?  
019:103,10['  ]| said Stephen.   
019:103,11[B  ]| People are very timorous.  It would be so$5#1$ much simpler to$9$  
019:103,12[B  ]| take the bull by$4$ the horns and have done with it.   
019:103,13['  ]| When they reached the hall of the college the President  
019:103,14['  ]| stood at the foot of the staircase before going up$5$ to$4$ his room.   
019:103,15['  ]| Stephen waited silently: 
019:103,16[O  ]| ~~ Begin to$9$ look at the bright side of things, Mr*Daedalus.   
019:103,17[O  ]| Art should be healthy first of all.  
019:103,18['  ]| The President gathered in$4$ his soutane for$4$ the ascent with  
019:103,19['  ]| a slow hermaphroditic gesture: 
019:103,20[O  ]| ~~ I must say you have defended your theory very well ~~  
019:103,21[O  ]| very well indeed.  I do not agree with it, of course, but I can  
019:103,22[O  ]| see you have thought it all out carefully beforehand.  You  
019:103,23[O  ]| have thought it out carefully? 
019:103,24[B  ]| ~~ Yes, I have.  
019:103,25[O  ]| ~~ It is very interesting ~~ a little paradoxical at times and a  
019:103,26[O  ]| little juvenile ~~ but I have been very interested in$4$ it.  I am  
019:103,27[O  ]| sure too that$3$ when your studies have brought you further  
019:103,28[O  ]| afield you will$1$ be able to$9$ amend it so$3$ as to$9$ ~~ fit in$4$ more with  
019:103,29[O  ]| recognised facts; I am sure you will$1$ be able to$9$ apply it better  
019:103,30[O  ]| then ~~ when your mind has undergone a course of ~~ regular  
019:103,31[O  ]| ~~ training and you have a larger, wider sense of ~~  
019:103,32[O  ]| comparison ~~ 
020:104,01['  ]| THE President's indefinite manner of closing the interview  
020:104,02['  ]| had left some doubts in$4$ Stephen's mind; he was unable to$9$  
020:104,03['  ]| decide whether the retreat upstairs was a breach of friendly  
020:104,04['  ]| relations or a politic confession of inability.  However as no$2$  
020:104,05['  ]| definite prohibition had been pronounced upon$4$ him he  
020:104,06['  ]| determined to$9$ proceed calmly on$4$ his way until he encountered  
020:104,07['  ]| a substantial check.  When he met McCann again he  
020:104,08['  ]| smiled and waited to$9$ be questioned.  His account of the interview  
020:104,09['  ]| went the rounds of the undergraduate classes and he  
020:104,10['  ]| was much amused to$9$ observe the startled expression of many  
020:104,11['  ]| pairs of eyes which$6#1$, to$9$ judge from their open humiliated  
020:104,12['  ]| astonishment, appeared to$9$ behold in$4$ hi characteristics of 
020:104,13['  ]| a moral Nelson.  Maurice listened to$4$ his brother's account  
020:104,14['  ]| of his battle with recognised authority but he made no$2$ remark  
020:104,15['  ]| upon$4$ it.  Stephen himself, in$4$ default of another's service, 
020:104,16['  ]| began to$9$ annotate the incident copiously expanding 
020:104,17['  ]| every suggestive phase of the interview.  He consumed much  
020:104,18['  ]| imaginative fuel in$4$ this diverting chase of the presumable  
020:104,19['  ]| and his rapid changeful courses kindled in$4$ him a flame of discontent  
020:104,20['  ]| for$4$ Maurice's impassiveness: 
020:104,21[B  ]| ~~ Are you listening to$4$ me at all?  Do you know what I am  
020:104,22[B  ]| talking about? 
020:104,23[K  ]| ~~ Yes, it is alright ~~ You can read your paper, can not  
020:104,24[K  ]| you? 
020:104,25[B  ]| ~~ Yes, of course, I can ~~ But what is up$5$ with you?  Are  
020:104,26[B  ]| you bored?  Are you thinking of anything? 
020:104,27[K  ]| ~~ Well ~~ yes, I am.  
020:104,28[B  ]| ~~ What? 
020:104,29[K  ]| ~~ I have found out why I feel different this evening.  Why, 
020:104,30[K  ]| do you think? 
020:104,31[B  ]| ~~ I do not know.  Tell us.  
020:104,32[K  ]| ~~ I have been walking from the ball of my left foot.   
020:104,33[K  ]| I usually walk from the ball of my right foot.   
020:105,01['  ]| Stephen looked sideways at the speaker's solemn face to$9$  
020:105,02['  ]| see if there were any signs thereon of a satirical mood but, finding  
020:105,03['  ]| only steadfast self-analysis, he said:   
020:105,04[B  ]| ~~ Indeed?  That$6#2$ is damned interesting.  
020:105,05['  ]| On$4$ the Saturday night which$6#1$ had been fixed for$4$ the reading  
020:105,06['  ]| of the paper Stephen found himself facing the benches in$4$ the  
020:105,07['  ]| Physics'*Theatre.  While the minutes were being read  
020:105,08['  ]| out by$4$ the secretary he had time to$9$ observe his father's eyeglass  
020:105,09['  ]| glimmering high up$5$ near the window and he divined  
020:105,10['  ]| more than saw the burly form of Mr*Casey hard by$4$ that$6#2$  
020:105,11['  ]| observant centre.  He could not see his brother but in$4$ the  
020:105,12['  ]| front benches he noticed Father*Butt and McCann and two 
020:105,13['  ]| other priests.  The chairman was Mr*Keane, the professor  
020:105,14['  ]| of English composition.  When the formal business was  
020:105,15['  ]| ended the chairman called on$4$ the essayist to$9$ read his paper  
020:105,16['  ]| and Stephen stood up$5$.  He waited until a compliment of  
020:105,17['  ]| discreet applause had subsided, and until McCann's energetic  
020:105,18['  ]| hands had given four resounding claps as a concluding  
020:105,19['  ]| solo of welcome.  Then he read out his essay.  He read it  
020:105,20['  ]| quietly and distinctly, involving every hardihood of thought  
020:105,21['  ]| or expression in$4$ an envelope of low innocuous melody.  He  
020:105,22['  ]| read it on$5$ calmly to$4$ the end:  his reading was never once  
020:105,23['  ]| interrupted with applause:  and when he had read out the  
020:105,24['  ]| final sentences in$4$ a tone of metallic clearness he sat down.  
020:105,25['  ]| The first single thought that$6#1$ emerged through a swift  
020:105,26['  ]| mood of confusion was the bright conviction that$3$ he should  
020:105,27['  ]| never have written his essay.  While he was gloomily taking  
020:105,28['  ]| counsel with himself as to$4$ whether he should fling the  
020:105,29['  ]| manuscript at their heads and march home or remain as  
020:105,30['  ]| he was shading his face from the light of the candles on$4$ the  
020:105,31['  ]| Chairman's table he became aware that$3$ the discussion  
020:105,32['  ]| his paper had begun:  this discovery surprised him.  Whelan, 
020:105,33['  ]| the orator of the College, was proposing a vote of thanks and  
020:105,34['  ]| wagging his head in$4$ time to$9$ ornate phrases.  Stephen wondered  
020:105,35['  ]| did anyone else observe the infantile movements of the  
020:105,36['  ]| orator's mouth.  He wished that$3$ Whelan would shut his jaws 
020:106,01['  ]| with a clap so$3$ as to$9$ reveal the presence of solid teeth; the  
020:106,02['  ]| mere sound of the speech reminded him of the noise Nurse*Sarah  
020:106,03['  ]| used to$9$ make when she mashed Isabel's bread-and-milk  
020:106,04['  ]| in$4$ the blue bowl which$6#1$ his mother now used to$9$ hold 
020:106,05['  ]| starch.  But he at once corrected himself for$4$ such a manner  
020:106,06['  ]| of criticism and strove to$9$ listen to$4$ the words if the orator.   
020:106,07['  ]| Whelan was profusely admiring:  
020:106,07[YN ]| he felt (he said) during the  
020:106,08[YN ]| reading of Mr*Daedalus' essay as though he had been listening  
020:106,09[YN ]| to$4$ the discourse of angels and did not know the language  
020:106,10[YN ]| that$6#1$ they spoke.  It was with some diffidence that$3$ he ventured  
020:106,11[YN ]| to$9$ criticise but it was evident that$3$ Mr*Daedalus did  
020:106,12[YN ]| not understand the beauty of the Attic theatre.  He pointed  
020:106,13[YN ]| out that$3$ Eschylus was an imperishable name and he predicted  
020:106,14[YN ]| that$3$ the drama of the Greeks would outlive many  
020:106,15[YN ]| civilisations.  
020:106,15['  ]| Stephen noticed that$3$ Whelan said 
020:106,15[L  ]| ""yisterday""  
020:106,16['  ]| twice instead of ""yesterday"" in$4$ imitation of Father*Butt who$6#1$  
020:106,17['  ]| was a South*of*England man and he speculated as to$4$ whether  
020:106,18['  ]| it was a Dominican preacher or a Jesuit preacher who$6#1$  
020:106,19['  ]| had given the orator his final phrase.  
020:106,19[N  ]| ""Greek art"" 
020:106,19['  ]| said  
020:106,20['  ]| Whelan 
020:106,20[N  ]| ""is not for$4$ a time but for$4$ all times.  It stands aloof, 
020:106,21[N  ]| alone.  It is imperial, imperious and imperative."" 
020:106,22['  ]| McCann seconded the vote of thanks 
020:106,22[YH ]| which$6#1$ had been so$5#1$  
020:106,23[YH ]| ably proposed by$4$ Mr*Whelan and he desired to$9$ add his  
020:106,24[YH ]| tribute to$4$ Mr*Whelan's eloquent tribute to$4$ the essayist tribute to$4$  
020:106,25[YH ]| the essayist of the night.  There were perhaps many things in$4$ the paper  
020:106,26[YH ]| which$6#1$ Mr*Daedalus had read to$4$ them with which$6#1$ he could  
020:106,27[YH ]| not agree but he was not such a blind partizan of antiquity for$4$  
020:106,28[YH ]| antiquity's sake as Mr*Whelan seemed to$9$ be.  Modern  
020:106,29[YH ]| ideas must find their expression:  the modern world had to$9$  
020:106,30[YH ]| face pressing problems:  and he considered that$3$ any writer  
020:106,31[YH ]| who$6#1$ could call attention to$4$ those problems in$4$ a striking way  
020:106,32[YH ]| was well worthy of every serious person's consideration.  He  
020:106,33[YH ]| considered that$3$ he was speaking for$4$ one and all of those  
020:106,34[YH ]| present when he said that$3$ Mr*Daedalus, by$4$ reading his  
020:106,35[YH ]| frank and earnest essay that$6#2$ night, had conferred a benefit  
020:106,36[YH ]| on$4$ the society.   
020:107,01['  ]| The general diversion of the night began when these two  
020:107,02['  ]| opening speeches had ended.  Stephen was subjected to$4$ the  
020:107,03['  ]| fires of six or seven hostile speakers.  One speaker, a young  
020:107,04['  ]| man named Magee, said 
020:107,04[YP ]| he was surprised that$3$ any paper  
020:107,05[YP ]| which$6#1$ was conceived in$4$ a spirit so$5#1$ hostile to$4$ the spirit of  
020:107,06[YP ]| religion itself ~~ he did not know if Mr*Daedalus understood  
020:107,07[YP ]| the true purport of the theory he propounded ~~ should  
020:107,08[YP ]| find approval in$4$ their society.  Who$6#2$ but the Church had  
020:107,09[YP ]| sustained and fostered the artistic temper?  Had not the  
020:107,10[YP ]| drama owed its very birth to$4$ relition?  That$6#2$ was indeed a  
020:107,11[YP ]| poor theory which$6#1$ tried to$9$ bolster up$5$ the dull dramas of  
020:107,12[YP ]| sinful intrigues and to$9$ decry the immortal masterpieces.   
020:107,13[YP ]| Mr*Magee said he did know as much about Ibsen as 
020:107,14[YP ]| Mr*Daedalus did ~~ nor did he want to$9$ know anything about  
020:107,15[YP ]| him ~~ but he knew that$3$ one of his plays was about the sanitary  
020:107,16[YP ]| condition of a bathing-place.  If this was drama he did  
020:107,17[YP ]| not see why some Dublin*Shakespeare should not pen an  
020:107,18[YP ]| immortal work dealing with the new Main*Drainage*Scheme  
020:107,19[YP ]| of the Dublin*Corporation.  
020:107,19['  ]| This speech was the  
020:107,20['  ]| signal for$4$ a general attack.  The essay was pronounced a  
020:107,21['  ]| jingle of meaningless words, a clever presentation of vicious  
020:107,22['  ]| principles in$4$ the guise of artistic theories, a reproduction of  
020:107,23['  ]| the decadent literary opinions of exhausted European  
020:107,24['  ]| capitals.  The essayist was supposed to$9$ intend parts of his  
020:107,25['  ]| essay as efforts at practical joking:  everyone knew that$3$  
020:107,26['  ]| \Macbeth\ would be famous when the unknown authors of  
020:107,27['  ]| whom Mr*Daedalus was so$5#1$ fond were dead and forgotten.   
020:107,28['  ]| Ancient art loved to$9$ uphold the beautiful and the sublime:   
020:107,29['  ]| modern art might select other themes:  but those who$6#1$ still  
020:107,30['  ]| preserved their minds uncontaminated by$4$ atheistic poisons  
020:107,31['  ]| would know which$6#1$ to$9$ choose.  The climax of aggressiveness  
020:107,32['  ]| was reached when Hughes stood up$5$.  He declared in$4$ ringing  
020:107,33['  ]| Northern accents 
020:107,33[YQ ]| that$3$ the moral welfare of the Irish people  
020:107,34[YQ ]| was menaced by$4$ such theories.  They wanted no$2$ foreign  
020:107,35[YQ ]| filth.  Mr*Daedalus might read what authors he liked, of  
020:107,36[YQ ]| course, but the Irish people had their own glorious literature  
020:108,01[YQ ]| where they could always find fresh ideals to$9$ spur them on$5$ to$4$  
020:108,02[YQ ]| new patriotic endeavours.  Mr*Daedalus was himself a  
020:108,03[YQ ]| renegade from the Nationalist ranks:  he professed cosmopolitism.   
020:108,04[YQ ]| But a man that$6#1$ was of all countries was of no$2$ country  
020:108,05[YQ ]| ~~ you must first have a nation before you have art.  Mr*Daedalus  
020:108,06[YQ ]| might do as he pleased, kneel at the shrine of Art  
020:108,07[YQ ]| (with a capital A), and rave about obscure authors.  In$4$  
020:108,08[YQ ]| spite of any hypocritical use of the name of a great  
020:108,09[YQ ]| doctor of the Church*Ireland would be on$4$ her guard  
020:108,10[YQ ]| against the insidious theory that$3$ art can be separated from 
020:108,11[YQ ]| morality.  If they were to$9$ have art let it be moral art, art that$6#1$  
020:108,12[YQ ]| elevated, above all, national art, 
020:108,13[YQ ]| Kindly Irish of the Irish, 
020:108,14[YQ ]| Neither Saxon nor Italian.  
020:108,15['  ]| When the time had come for$4$ the Chairman to$9$ sum up$5$ and  
020:108,16['  ]| to$9$ put the motion before the house there was the usual pause.   
020:108,17['  ]| In$4$ this pause Father*Butt rose and begged leave to$9$ say a few  
020:108,18['  ]| words.  The benches applauded with excitement and settled  
020:108,19['  ]| themselves to$9$ hear a denunciation \7ex 7cathedra\.  Father*Butt 
020:108,20['  ]| excused himself amid cries of 
020:108,20[Z  ]| ""No$7$, no$7$"" 
020:108,20[YG ]| for$4$ detaining his  
020:108,21[YG ]| audience at such an advanced hour but he thought he should  
020:108,22[YG ]| enter a word of favour of the much-abused essayist.  He  
020:108,23[YG ]| would be \7advocatus 7diaboli\ and he felt the uncomfortableness  
020:108,24[YG ]| of his office all the more since one of the speakers had, not  
020:108,25[YG ]| unjustly, described the languages in$4$ which$6#1$ Mr*Daedalus'  
020:108,26[YG ]| essay had been couched as a language of angels.  Mr*Daedalus  
020:108,27[YG ]| had contributed a very striking paper, a paper  
020:108,28[YG ]| which$6#1$ had filled the house and entertained them by$4$ the  
020:108,29[YG ]| lively discussion which$6#1$ it had provoked.  Of course everyone  
020:108,30[YG ]| could not be of the same opinion in$4$ matters artistic.   
020:108,31[YG ]| Mr*Daedalus admitted the conflict between romantics and  
020:108,32[YG ]| classicals as the condition of all achievement and they had  
020:108,33[YG ]| certainly proof that$6#2$ night that$3$ a conflict between antagonistic  
020:108,34[YG ]| theories had been able to$9$ produce such distinct achievements  
020:108,35[YG ]| as the essay itself, a remarkable piece of work, on$4$ the one  
020:109,01[YG ]| hand and the memorable attack delivered by$4$ Mr*Hughes, 
020:109,02[YG ]| as leader of the opposition, on$4$ the other hand.  He thought  
020:109,03[YG ]| that$3$ one or two of the speakers had been unduly severe with  
020:109,04[YG ]| the essayist but he was confident that$3$ the essayist was well  
020:109,05[YG ]| able to$9$ take care of himself in$4$ the matter of argument.  As  
020:109,06[YG ]| for$4$ the theory itself Father*Butt confessed that$3$ it was a new  
020:109,07[YG ]| sensation for$4$ him to$9$ hear Thomas*Aquinas quoted as an  
020:109,08[YG ]| authority on$4$ esthetic philosophy.  Esthetic philosophy was  
020:109,09[YG ]| a modern branch and if it was anything at all, it was practical.  
020:109,10[YG ]| Aquinas had treated slightly of the beautiful but always  
020:109,11[YG ]| from a theoretic standpoint.  To$9$ interpret his statements  
020:109,12[YG ]| practically one needed a fuller knowledge than Mr*Daedalus  
020:109,13[YG ]| could have of his entire theology.  At the same time he would  
020:109,14[YG ]| not go so$5#1$ far as to$9$ say that$3$ Mr*Daedalus had really, intentionally  
020:109,15[YG ]| or unintentionally, misinterpreted Aquinas.  But  
020:109,16[YG ]| just as an act which$6#1$ may be good in$4$ itself may become bad  
020:109,17[YG ]| by$4$ reason of circumstances so$3$ an object intrinsically beautiful  
020:109,18[YG ]| may be vitiated by$4$ other considerations.  Mr*Daedalus had  
020:109,19[YG ]| chosen to$9$ consider beauty intrinsically and to$9$ neglect these  
020:109,20[YG ]| other considerations.  But beauty also has its practical side.   
020:109,21[YG ]| Mr*Daedalus was a passionate admirer of the artistic and  
020:109,22[YG ]| such people are not always the most practical people in$4$ the 
020:109,23[YG ]| world.  Father*Butt then reminded his audience of  
020:109,24[YG ]| the story of King*Alfred and the old woman who$6#1$ was cooking  
020:109,25[YG ]| cakes ~~ of the theorist, that$6#2$ is, and of the practical person and  
020:109,26[YG ]| concluded by$4$ expressing the hope that$3$ the essayist would  
020:109,27[YG ]| emulate King*Alfred and not be too severe on$4$ the practical  
020:109,28[YG ]| persons who$6#1$ had criticised him.  
020:109,29['  ]| The chairman in$4$ his summing-up speech 
020:109,29[YX ]| complimented  
020:109,30[YX ]| the essayist on$4$ his style but he said the essayist had evidently  
020:109,31[YX ]| forgotten that$3$ art implied selection.  He thought that$3$ the  
020:109,32[YX ]| discussion on$4$ the paper had been very instructive and he was  
020:109,33[YX ]| sure they were all thankful to$4$ Father*Butt for$4$ his clear, 
020:109,34[YX ]| concise criticism.  Mr*Daedalus had been somewhat severely  
020:109,35[YX ]| handled but he thought that$3$, considering the many excellences 
020:109,36[YX ]| of his paper, he (the Chairman) was well justified in$4$  
020:110,01[YX ]| asking them to$9$ agree that$3$ the best thanks of 
020:110,02[YX ]| this society were due and were hereby tendered 
020:110,03[YX ]| to$4$ Mr*Daedalus for$4$ his admirable and instructive paper! 
020:110,04['  ]| The vote of thanks was passed unanimously but without  
020:110,05['  ]| enthusiasm.  
020:110,06['  ]| Stephen stood up$5$ and bowed.  It was customary for$4$ the  
020:110,07['  ]| essayist of the night to$9$ avail himself of this occasion for$4$ replying  
020:110,08['  ]| to$4$ his critics but Stephen contented himself with  
020:110,09['  ]| acknowledging the vote of thanks.  Some called on$4$ him for$4$ a  
020:110,10['  ]| speech but, when the Chairman had waited in$4$ vain for$4$ a  
020:110,11['  ]| few moments, the proceedings ran on$5$ rapidly to$4$ a close.  In$4$  
020:110,12['  ]| five minutes the Physics'*Theatre was empty.  Downstairs 
020:110,13['  ]| in$4$ the hall the young men were busy putting on$5$ their coats  
020:110,14['  ]| and lighting cigarettes.  Stephen looked for$4$ his father and  
020:110,15['  ]| Maurice but could see them nowhere so$3$ he set out for$4$ home  
020:110,16['  ]| alone.  At the corner of the Green he came up$5$ with a group  
020:110,17['  ]| of four young men, Madden, Cranly, a young medical student  
020:110,18['  ]| named Temple, and a clerk in$4$ the Custom-House.  Madden  
020:110,19['  ]| caught Stephen's arm and said consolingly in$4$ private: 
020:110,20[F  ]| ~~ Well, old man, I told you those fellows would not  
020:110,21[F  ]| understand it.  I knew it was too good for$4$ them.   
020:110,22['  ]| Stephen was touched by$4$ this show of friendship but he  
020:110,23['  ]| shook his head as if he wished to$9$ change the subject.  Besides, 
020:110,24['  ]| he knew that$3$ Madden really understood very little of the  
020:110,25['  ]| paper and disapproved of what he understood.  When  
020:110,26['  ]| Stephen came up$5$ with the four young men they were strolling  
020:110,27['  ]| very slowly, discussing a projected trip to$4$ Wicklow on$4$  
020:110,28['  ]| Easter*Monday.  Stephen walked beside Madden at the edge  
020:110,29['  ]| of the footpath and thus the group advanced abreast along  
020:110,30['  ]| the wide footpath.  Cranly in$4$ the centre was linking madden  
020:110,31['  ]| and the clerk from the Custom-House.  Stephen listened  
020:110,32['  ]| vaguely.  Cranly was speaking (as was his custom when he walked 
020:110,33['  ]| with other gentlemen of leisure) in$4$ a language the  
020:110,34['  ]| base of which$6#1$ was Latin and the superstructure of which$6#1$ was  
020:110,35['  ]| composed of Irish, French and German: 
020:110,36[X  ]| ~~ \Atque ad duas horas in Wicklowio venit\.   
020:111,01[X  ]| ~~ \Damnum longum tempus prendit\, 
020:111,01['  ]| said the clerk from the  
020:111,02['  ]| Custom-House.  
020:111,03[X  ]| ~~ \8Quando\ ~~ no$7$, I mean ~~ \quo in ~~ 9bateau ~~ 9irons-nous?\  
020:111,04['  ]| asked Temple.  
020:111,05[X  ]| ~~ \Quo in batello\? 
020:111,05['  ]| said Cranly, 
020:111,05[X  ]| \in ""Regina*Maris""\.  
020:111,06['  ]| So$3$ after a little talk the young men agreed to$9$ take a trip to$4$  
020:111,07['  ]| Wicklow on$4$ the \Sea-Queen\.  Stephen was much relieved to$9$  
020:111,08['  ]| listen to$4$ this conversation:  in$4$ a few minutes the sting of his  
020:111,09['  ]| disaster was no$2$ longer felt so$5#1$ acutely.  Cranly at last  
020:111,10['  ]| observed Stephen walking at the edge of the path and  
020:111,11['  ]| said:   
020:111,12[R  ]| ~~ \Ecce orator qui in malo humore est\.  
020:111,13[B  ]| ~~ \Non sum\, 
020:111,13['  ]| said Stephen.  
020:111,14[R  ]| ~~ \Credo ut estis\ 
020:111,14['  ]| said Cranly.  
020:111,15[B  ]| ~~ \Minime\.  
020:111,16[R  ]| ~~ \Credo ut vos sanguinarius mendax estis quia facies vestra\
020:111,17[R  ]| \mostrat ut vos in malo humore estis\.  
020:111,18['  ]| Madden who$6#1$ could not talk this language well led the  
020:111,19['  ]| group back to$4$ English. The clerk from the Custom-House  
020:111,20['  ]| seemed to$9$ have it on$4$ his conscience to$9$ express admiration  
020:111,21['  ]| for$4$ Stephen's style.  He was a big stout young man with a  
020:111,22['  ]| lardy face and he carried an umbrella.  He was several  
020:111,23['  ]| years older than any of his companions but he  
020:111,24['  ]| had decided to$9$ read for$4$ his degree in$4$ Mental*and*Moral*Science.   
020:111,25['  ]| He was a constant companion of Cranly's and it  
020:111,26['  ]| was the latter's eloquence which$6#1$ had induced him to$9$ enter  
020:111,27['  ]| the night-classes in$4$ the college.  Cranly spent a great part  
020:111,28['  ]| of his time persuading young men to$9$ adopt different lines  
020:111,29['  ]| of life.  The clerk from the Custom-House was named O'Neill.   
020:111,30['  ]| He was a very amiable person, always laughing asthmatically  
020:111,31['  ]| at Cranly's serious fooling, but he was interested to$9$ hear of  
020:111,32['  ]| any occasion whereby he might improve himself mentally.   
020:111,33['  ]| He attended the Debating*Society and the meetings of the  
020:111,34['  ]| College*Sodality because he was thus brought into ""touch""  
020:111,35['  ]| with University life.  He was a circumspect young man but  
020:111,36['  ]| he allowed Cranly to$9$ ""chaff"" him about girls.  Stephen tried  
020:112,01['  ]| to$9$ dissuade the company from alluding to$4$ his essay but  
020:112,02['  ]| O'Neill had accepted the occasion as one to$9$ be availed of.   
020:112,03['  ]| He asked Stephen questions such as are to$9$ be found in$4$ the  
020:112,04['  ]| pages of young ladies' confession-albums and Stephen thought  
020:112,05['  ]| that$3$ his mental heaven must greatly resemble a confectioner's  
020:112,06['  ]| shop.  Temple was a raw Gipsy-looking youth with  
020:112,07['  ]| a shambling gait and a shambling manner of speaking.  He  
020:112,08['  ]| was from the West of Ireland and he was known to$9$ be  
020:112,09['  ]| very revolutionary.  When O'Neill had spoken for$4$ some time  
020:112,10['  ]| to$4$ Cranly, who$6#1$ had answered him more politely than  
020:112,11['  ]| Stephen, Temple after a few false starts got in$4$ a phrase: 
020:112,12[S  ]| ~~ I think ~~ was a bloody fine paper.  
020:112,13['  ]| Cranly turned a vacant face in$4$ the direction of the  
020:112,14['  ]| speaker but Temple continued: 
020:112,15[S  ]| ~~ Made 'em sit up$5$ too.  
020:112,16[R  ]| ~~ \Habesne bibitum\?  
020:112,16['  ]| asked Cranly.  
020:112,17[S  ]| ~~ 'Scuse me, sir, 
020:112,17['  ]| said Temple to$4$ Stephen across  
020:112,18['  ]| the intervening bodies, 
020:112,18[S  ]| do you believe in$4$ Jesus ~~ I do not  
020:112,19[S  ]| believe in$4$ Jesus, 
020:112,19['  ]| he added.  
020:112,20['  ]| Stephen laughed loudly at the tone of this statement and  
020:112,21['  ]| he continued when Temple began to$9$ shamble through a  
020:112,22['  ]| kind of apology: 
020:112,23[S  ]| ~~ 'Course I do not know ~~ if you believe in$4$ Jesus.  I  
020:112,24[S  ]| believe in$4$ man ~~ .  If you b'lieve in$4$ Jesus ~~ of course ~~ I  
020:112,25[S  ]| ought not to$9$ say anything the first time I met you ~~ .  Do  
020:112,26[S  ]| you think that$6#2$? 
020:112,27['  ]| O'Neill preserved a solemn silence until Temple's speech  
020:112,28['  ]| had faded into indistinct mutterings; then he said, as if he  
020:112,29['  ]| were beginning an entirely new subject:   
020:112,30[T  ]| ~~ I was very much interested in$4$ your paper and in$4$ the  
020:112,31[T  ]| speeches too ~~ What did you think of Hughes? 
020:112,32['  ]| Stephen did not answer.  
020:112,33[S  ]| ~~ Bloody cod, 
020:112,33['  ]| said Temple.  
020:112,34[T  ]| ~~ I though his speech was in$4$ very bad taste, 
020:112,34['  ]| said O'Neill  
020:112,35['  ]| sympathetically.  
020:112,36[R  ]| ~~ \Bellam boccam habet\, 
020:112,36['  ]| said Cranly.  
020:113,01[F  ]| ~~ Yes, I think he went too far, 
020:113,01['  ]| said madden, 
020:113,01[F  ]| but, you  
020:113,02[F  ]| see, he gets carried away by$4$ his enthusiasm.  
020:113,03[R  ]| ~~ \Patrioticus est\.  
020:113,04[T  ]| ~~ Yes, he is patriotic 'cus, 
020:113,04['  ]| said O'Neill laughing wheezily.  
020:113,05[T  ]| But I thought Father*Butt's speech very good, very clear and  
020:113,06[T  ]| philosophical.  
020:113,07[S  ]| ~~ Did you think that$6#2$?  
020:113,07['  ]| cried Temple from the inside of the  
020:113,08['  ]| path, to$4$ Stephen ~~ 
020:113,08[S  ]| 'Scuse me ~~ I wanted to$9$ know what  
020:113,09[S  ]| he thought of Butt's speech, 
020:113,09['  ]| he explained at the same time  
020:113,10['  ]| to$4$ the other three ~~ 
020:113,10[S  ]| Did you think ~~ he was a  
020:113,11[S  ]| bloody cod too? 
020:113,12['  ]| Stephen could not help laughing at this novel form of  
020:113,13['  ]| address though Father*Butt's speech had put him into  
020:113,14['  ]| anything but a charitable mood.  
020:113,15[F  ]| ~~ It was just the kind of thing he gives us every day, 
020:113,15['  ]| said  
020:113,16['  ]| Madden.  
020:113,16[F  ]| You know the style.  
020:113,17[B  ]| ~~ His speech annoyed me, 
020:113,17['  ]| said Stephen curtly.  
020:113,18[S  ]| ~~ Why was that$6#2$?  
020:113,18['  ]| said Temple eagerly.  
020:113,18[S  ]| Why was it he  
020:113,19[S  ]| annoyed you? 
020:113,20['  ]| Stephen made a grimace instead of answering:   
020:113,21[S  ]| ~~ Bloody cod of a speech, 
020:113,21['  ]| said Temple ~~ 
020:113,21[S  ]| I am a rationalist.   
020:113,22[S  ]| I do not b'lieve in$4$ any religion.  
020:113,23[R  ]| ~~ I think he meant part of his speech kindly, 
020:113,23['  ]| said Cranly  
020:113,24['  ]| slowly after a pause turning his full face towards Stephen.   
020:113,25['  ]| Stephen answered his gaze, looking steadily into  
020:113,26['  ]| a pair of bright dark eyes, and at the moment when their  
020:113,27['  ]| eyes met he felt hope.  There was nothing in$4$ the phrase to$9$  
020:113,28['  ]| encourage; he doubted its justice very much:  yet he knew  
020:113,29['  ]| that$3$ hope had touched him.  He walked on$5$ beside the four  
020:113,30['  ]| young men, pondering.  Cranly stopped before the window  
020:113,31['  ]| of a little huckster's shop in$4$ one of the mean streets through  
020:113,32['  ]| which$6#1$ they passed, staring fixedly at an old yellow copy of  
020:113,33['  ]| the \Daily*Graphic\ which$6#1$ was hanging sideways on$4$ the glass.   
020:113,34['  ]| The illustration was a winter scene.  No-one said anything  
020:113,35['  ]| and as silence seemed about to$9$ set in$4$ permanently Madden  
020:113,36['  ]| asked him what he was looking at.  Cranly looked at his  
020:114,01['  ]| questioner and then looked back again at the dirty picture, 
020:114,02['  ]| towards which$6#1$ he nodded his head heavily: 
020:114,03[S  ]| ~~ What is ~~ what is?  
020:114,03['  ]| asked Temple, who$6#1$ had been  
020:114,04['  ]| looking at some cold crubeens in$4$ the next window.  
020:114,05['  ]| Cranly turned his vacant face again towards his questioner  
020:114,06['  ]| and pointed to$4$ the picture, saying: 
020:114,07[R  ]| ~~ \Feuc an eis super stradam ~~ in$4$ Liverpoolio\.  
020:114,08['  ]| Stephen's family circle was now increased by$4$ isabel's  
020:114,09['  ]| return from her convent.  For$4$ some time she had been in$4$  
020:114,10['  ]| delicate health and the nuns had recommended that$3$ she  
020:114,11['  ]| should have home care.  She came home a few days after the  
020:114,12['  ]| famous day of Stephen's paper.  Stephen was standing at  
020:114,13['  ]| the little front window that$6#1$ looked towards the mouth of the  
020:114,14['  ]| river when he saw his parents walking from the tram with a  
020:114,15['  ]| thin pale girl walking between them.  Stephen's father did  
020:114,16['  ]| not like$1$ the prospect of another inhabitant in$4$ his house, 
020:114,17['  ]| particularly a daughter for$4$ whom he had little affection.  He  
020:114,18['  ]| was annoyed that$3$ his daughter would not avail herself of the  
020:114,19['  ]| opportunity afforded her in$4$ the convent but his sense of  
020:114,20['  ]| public duty was real if spasmodic and he would by$4$ no$2$ means  
020:114,21['  ]| permit his wife to$9$ bring the girl home without his aid.  The  
020:114,22['  ]| reflection that$3$ his daughter, instead of being a help to$4$ him  
020:114,23['  ]| would be a hindrance, and the suspicion that$3$ the burden of  
020:114,24['  ]| responsibility which$6#1$ he had piously imposed on$4$ his eldest  
020:114,25['  ]| son's shoulders was beginning to$9$ irk that$6#2$ young man  
020:114,26['  ]| troubled his vision of the future.  He had a taste for$4$ contrasts, 
020:114,27['  ]| perhaps, which$6#1$ led him to$9$ expect industry and sobriety in$4$  
020:114,28['  ]| his offspring but it cannot be said that$3$ he desired any  
020:114,29['  ]| material re-exaltation.  It was just this impalpable excellence  
020:114,30['  ]| which$6#1$ he wished his son to$9$ assert again the the teeth of 
020:114,31['  ]| circumstances which$6#1$ gained him a condidtional pardon  
020:114,32['  ]| at Stephen's hands.  But this slight thread of union between  
020:114,33['  ]| father and son had been worn away by$4$ the usages of daily  
020:115,01['  ]| life and, by$4$ reason of it tenuity and of the gradual  
020:115,02['  ]| rustiness which$6#1$ had begun to$9$ consume the upper station, it  
020:115,03['  ]| bore fewer and feebler messages along it.  
020:115,04['  ]| Stephen's father was quite capable of talking himself into  
020:115,05['  ]| believing what he knew to$9$ be untrue.  He knew that$3$ his own  
020:115,06['  ]| ruin had been his own handiwork but he had talked himself  
020:115,07['  ]| into believing that$3$ it was the handiwork of others.  He had 
020:115,08['  ]| his son's distaste for$4$ responsibility without his son's courage.   
020:115,09['  ]| He was one of those illogical wiseacres with whom no$2$ evidence  
020:115,10['  ]| can outreason the first impression.  His wife had fulfilled  
020:115,11['  ]| her duties to$4$ him with startling literalness and yet she 
020:115,12['  ]| had never been able to$9$ expiate the offence of her blood.  Misunderstanding  
020:115,13['  ]| such as this, which$6#1$ is accepted as natural in$4$  
020:115,14['  ]| higher social grades, is wrongly refused recognition in$4$ the  
020:115,15['  ]| burgher class where it is often found to$9$ issue in$4$ feuds of  
020:115,16['  ]| insatiable, narrow hatred.  Mr*Daedalus hated his wife's  
020:115,17['  ]| maiden name with a medieval intensity:  it stunk in$4$ his  
020:115,18['  ]| nostrils.  His alliance therewith was the only sin of which$6#1$, in$4$  
020:115,19['  ]| the entire honesty of his cowardice, he could accuse himself.   
020:115,20['  ]| Now that$3$ he was making for$4$ the final decades of life with  
020:115,21['  ]| the painful consciousness of having diminished comfortable  
020:115,22['  ]| goods and of having accumulated uncomfortable habits he  
020:115,23['  ]| consoled and revenged himself by$4$ tirades so$5#1$ prolonged and  
020:115,24['  ]| so$5#1$ often repeated that$3$ he was in$4$ danger of becoming a  
020:115,25['  ]| monomaniac.  The hearth at night was the sacred witness  
020:115,26['  ]| of these revenges, pondered, muttered, growled and execrated.   
020:115,27['  ]| The exception which$6#1$ his clemency had originally  
020:115,28['  ]| made in$4$ favour of his wife was soon out of mind and she  
020:115,29['  ]| began to$9$ irritate him by$4$ her dutiful symbolism.  The great  
020:115,30['  ]| disappointment of his life was accentuated by$4$ a lesser and  
020:115,31['  ]| keener loss ~~ the loss of a coveted fame.  On$4$ account of a  
020:115,32['  ]| certain income and of certain sociable gifts  Mr*Daedalus  
020:115,33['  ]| had been accustomed to$9$ regard himself as the centre of a  
020:115,34['  ]| little world, the darling of a little society.  This position he  
020:115,35['  ]| still strove to$9$ maintain but at the cost of a reckless liberality 
020:115,36['  ]| from which$6#1$ his household had to$9$ suffer both in$4$ deed and  
020:116,01['  ]| in$4$ spirit.  He imagined that$3$ while he strove to$9$ retain this 
020:116,02['  ]| infatuating position his home affairs would, through the  
020:116,03['  ]| agency of a son whom he made no$2$ effort to$9$ understand, in$4$  
020:116,04['  ]| some divine manner right themselves.  This hope when  
020:116,05['  ]| indulged in$5$ would sometimes embitter his affection for$4$ a son  
020:116,06['  ]| whom he thereby acknowledged as superior but, now that$3$ he  
020:116,07['  ]| was led to$9$ suspect that$3$ his hope was fatuous, an embitterment  
020:116,08['  ]| of that$6#2$ affection seemed likely to$9$ fix itself permanently among  
020:116,09['  ]| his emotional landmarks.  His son's notion of aristocracy was 
020:116,10['  ]| not the one which$6#1$ he could sympathise with and his son's  
020:116,11['  ]| silence during the domestic battles no$2$ longer seemed to$4$ him  
020:116,12['  ]| a conveyed compliment.  He was, in$4$ fact, sufficiently acute  
020:116,13['  ]| to$9$ observe here a covert menace against castellar rights and  
020:116,14['  ]| he would not have been wrong if he had imagined that$3$ his  
020:116,15['  ]| son regarded assistance at these tortuous and obscene  
020:116,16['  ]| monologues as the tribute exacted by$4$ a father for$4$ affording  
020:116,17['  ]| a wayward child a base of supplies ~~  
020:116,18['  ]| Stephen did not consider his parents very seriously.  In$4$ his  
020:116,19['  ]| opinion they had opened up$5$ misleading and unnatural relations  
020:116,20['  ]| between themselves and him and he considered their  
020:116,21['  ]| affection for$4$ him requited by$4$ a studious demeanour towards 
020:116,22['  ]| them and by$4$ a genuine goodwill to$9$ perform for$4$ them a great  
020:116,23['  ]| number of such material services as, in$4$ his present state of  
020:116,24['  ]| fierce idealism, he could look upon$4$ as trifles.  The only  
020:116,25['  ]| material services he would refuse them were those which$6#1$ he  
020:116,26['  ]| judged to$9$ be spiritually dangerous and it is as well to$9$ admit  
020:116,27['  ]| that$3$ this exception all but nullified his charity for$3$ he had  
020:116,28['  ]| cultivated an independence of the soul which$6#1$ could brook  
020:116,29['  ]| very few subjections.  Divine exemplars abetted him in$4$ this.   
020:116,30['  ]| The phrase which$6#1$ preachers elaborate into a commandment 
020:116,31['  ]| of obedience seemed to$4$ him meagre, ironical and inconclusive  
020:116,32['  ]| and the narrative of the life of Jesus did not in$4$ any  
020:116,33['  ]| way impress him as the narrative of the life of one who$6#1$  
020:116,34['  ]| was subject to$4$ others.  When he had been a Roman*Catholic  
020:116,35['  ]| in$4$ the proper sense of the term the figure of Jesus had always  
020:116,36['  ]| seemed to$4$ him too remote and too passionless and he had  
020:117,01['  ]| never uttered from his heart a single fervent prayer to$4$ the  
020:117,02['  ]| Redeemer:  it was to$4$ Mary, as to$4$ a weaker and more engaging 
020:117,03['  ]| vessel of salvation, that$3$ he had entrusted his spiritual  
020:117,04['  ]| affairs.  Now his enfranchisement from the discipline of the  
020:117,05['  ]| Church seemed to$9$ be coincident with an instinctive  
020:117,06['  ]| return to$4$ the Founder thereof and this impulse would have  
020:117,07['  ]| led him perhaps to$4$ a consideration of the merits of Protestantism  
020:117,08['  ]| had not another natural impulse inclined him to$9$ bring  
020:117,09['  ]| even the self-contradictory and the absurd into order.  He  
020:117,10['  ]| did not know, besides, whether the haughtiness of the  
020:117,11['  ]| Papacy was not as derivable from Jesus himself as the reluctance  
020:117,12['  ]| to$9$ be pressed beyond 
020:117,12[Z  ]| ""Amen:  I say to$4$ you"" 
020:117,12['  ]| for$4$ an  
020:117,13['  ]| account of anything but he was quite sure that$3$ behind the  
020:117,14['  ]| enigmatic utterances of Jesus there was a very much more  
020:117,15['  ]| definite conception than any which$6#1$ could be supposed  
020:117,16['  ]| discoverable behind Protestant theology: 
020:117,17[B  ]| ~~ Put this in$4$ your diary, 
020:117,17['  ]| he said to$4$ transcriptive Maurice.   
020:117,18[B  ]| Protestant*Orthodoxy is like$4$ Lanty*McHale's dog:  it goes a  
020:117,19[B  ]| bit of the road with everyone.  
020:117,20[K  ]| ~~ It seems to$4$ me that$3$ S%*Paul trained that$6#2$ dog, 
020:117,20['  ]| said  
020:117,21['  ]| Maurice.  
020:117,22['  ]| One day when Stephen had gone to$4$ the college by$4$ accident  
020:117,23['  ]| he found McCann standing in$4$ the hall holding a long testimonial.   
020:117,24['  ]| Another part of the testimonial was on$4$ the hall-table  
020:117,25['  ]| and nearly all the young men in$4$ the college were signing their  
020:117,26['  ]| names to$4$ it.  McCann was speaking volubly to$4$ a little group  
020:117,27['  ]| and Stephen discovered that$3$ the testimonial was the tribute  
020:117,28['  ]| of Dublin*University students to$4$ the Tsar*of*Russia.  Worldwide  
020:117,29['  ]| peace:  solution of all disputes by$4$ arbitration:  general  
020:117,30['  ]| disarming of the nations:  these were the benefits for$4$ which$6#1$  
020:117,31['  ]| the students were returning their thanks.  On$4$ the hall*table  
020:117,32['  ]| there were two photographs, one of the Tsar*of*Russia, the  
020:117,33['  ]| other of the Editor of the \Review*of*Reviews\:  both of the  
020:117,34['  ]| photographs were signed by$4$ the famous couple.  As McCann  
020:117,35['  ]| was standing sideways to$4$ the light Stephen amused himself  
020:117,36['  ]| in$4$ tracing a resemblance between him and the pacific  
020:118,01['  ]| Emperor whose photograph had been taken in$4$ profile.  The 
020:118,02['  ]| Tsar's air of besotted Christ moved him to$9$ scorn and he  
020:118,03['  ]| turned for$4$ support to$4$ Cranly who$6#1$ was standing beside the  
020:118,04['  ]| door.  Cranly wore a very dirty yellow straw hat of the shape  
020:118,05['  ]| of an inverted bucket in$4$ the shelter of which$6#1$ his face was 
020:118,06['  ]| composed to$4$ a glaucuous calm.  
020:118,07[B  ]| ~~ Does not he look a wirrasthrue Jaysus?  
020:118,07['  ]| said Stephen  
020:118,08['  ]| pointing to$4$ the Tsar's photograph and using the Dublin  
020:118,09['  ]| version of the name as an effective common noun.   
020:118,10['  ]| Cranly looked in$4$ the direction of McCann and replied, 
020:118,11['  ]| nodding his head: 
020:118,12[R  ]| ~~ Wirrasthrue Jaysus and hairy Jaysus.  
020:118,13['  ]| At that$6#2$ moment McCann caught sight of Stephen and  
020:118,14['  ]| signalled that$3$ he would be with him in$4$ a moment: 
020:118,15[R  ]| ~~ Have you signed?  
020:118,15['  ]| asked Cranly.  
020:118,16[B  ]| ~~ This thing?  No$7$ ~~ have you?   
020:118,17['  ]| Cranly hesitated and then brought out a well deliberated 
020:118,18[R  ]| ""Yes"".  
020:118,19[B  ]| ~~ What for$4$?   
020:118,20[R  ]| ~~ What for$4$?   
020:118,21[B  ]| ~~ Ay.   
020:118,22[R  ]| ~~ For$4$ ~~ \7Pax\.   
020:118,23['  ]| Stephen looked up$5$ under the bucket-shaped hat but could  
020:118,24['  ]| read no$2$ expression on$4$ his neighbour's face.  His eyes wandered  
020:118,25['  ]| up$5$ to$4$ the dinged vertex of the hat.  
020:118,26[B  ]| ~~ In$4$ the name of God what do you wear that$6#2$ hat for$4$?  It is  
020:118,27[B  ]| not so$5#1$ terribly hot, is it?  
020:118,27['  ]| he asked.  
020:118,28['  ]| Cranly took off the hat slowly and gazed into its depths.   
020:118,29['  ]| After a little pause he pointed into it and said: 
020:118,30[R  ]| ~~ \Viginti-uno-denarios\.   
020:118,31[B  ]| ~~ Where?  
020:118,31['  ]| said Stephen.   
020:118,32[R  ]| ~~ I bought it, 
020:118,32['  ]| said Cranly very impressively and very  
020:118,33['  ]| flatly, 
020:118,33[R  ]| last summer in$4$ Wickla.   
020:118,34['  ]| He looked back into the hat and said, smiling with a sour  
020:118,35['  ]| affection;  
020:118,36[R  ]| ~~ It is not ~~ too bloody bad ~~ of a hat ~~ do you know.   
020:119,01['  ]| And he replaced it on$4$ his head slowly, murmuring to$4$  
020:119,02['  ]| himself, from force of habit 
020:119,02[R  ]| ""\7Viginti-uno-denarios\"".   
020:119,03[B  ]| ~~ \7Sicut 7bucketus 7est\, 
020:119,03['  ]| said Stephen.   
020:119,04['  ]| The subject was not discussed further.  Cranly produced a  
020:119,05['  ]| little grey ball from one of his pockets and began to$9$ examine  
020:119,06['  ]| it carefully, indenting the surface at many points.  Stephen  
020:119,07['  ]| was watching this operation when he heard McCann  
020:119,08['  ]| addressing him.   
020:119,09[H  ]| ~~ I want you to$9$ sign this testimonial.  
020:119,10[B  ]| ~~ What about? 
020:119,11[H  ]| ~~ It is a testimonial of admiration for$4$ the courage displayed  
020:119,12[H  ]| by$4$ the Tsar*of*Russia in$4$ issuing a rescript to$4$ the Powers, 
020:119,13[H  ]| advocating arbitration instead of war as a means of settling  
020:119,14[H  ]| national disputes.  
020:119,15['  ]| Stephen shook his head.  Temple who$6#1$ had been wandering  
020:119,16['  ]| round the hall in$4$ search of sympathy came over at this  
020:119,17['  ]| moment and said to$4$ Stephen: 
020:119,18[S  ]| ~~ Do you believe in$4$ peace? 
020:119,19['  ]| No-one answered him.  
020:119,20[H  ]| ~~ So$3$ you will$1$ not sign?  
020:119,20['  ]| said McCann 
020:119,21['  ]| Stephen shook his head again: 
020:119,22[H  ]| ~~ Why not?  
020:119,22['  ]| said McCann sharply.  
020:119,23[B  ]| ~~ If we must have a Jesus, 
020:119,23['  ]| answered Stephen, 
020:119,23[B  ]| let us have  
020:119,24[B  ]| a legitimate Jesus.  
020:119,25[S  ]| ~~ By$4$ hell!  
020:119,25['  ]| said Temple laughing, 
020:119,25[S  ]| that$6#2$ is good.  Did you  
020:119,26[S  ]| hear that$6#2$?  
020:119,26['  ]| he said to$4$ Cranly and McCann both of whom he  
020:119,27['  ]| seemed to$9$ regard as very hard of hearing.  
020:119,27[S  ]| Did you hear that$6#2$?   
020:119,28[S  ]| Legitima' Jesus! 
020:119,29[H  ]| ~~ I presume then you approve of war and slaughter, 
020:119,29['  ]| said  
020:119,30['  ]| McCann.  
020:119,31[B  ]| ~~ I did not make the world, 
020:119,31['  ]| said Stephen.  
020:119,32[S  ]| ~~ By$4$ hell!  
020:119,32['  ]| said Temple to$4$ Cranly.  
020:119,32[S  ]| I believe in$4$ universal  
020:119,33[S  ]| brotherhood.  'Scuse me, 
020:119,33['  ]| he said, turning to$4$ McCann, 
020:119,33[S  ]| do  
020:119,34[S  ]| you believe in$4$ universal brotherhood? 
020:119,35['  ]| McCann took no$2$ heed of the question but continued  
020:119,36['  ]| addressing Stephen.  He began an argument in$4$ favour of  
020:120,01['  ]| peace which$6#1$ Temple listened to$4$ for$4$ a few moments, but, as  
020:120,02['  ]| he spoke with his back to$4$ Temple, that$6#2$ revolutionary young  
020:120,03['  ]| man who$6#1$ could not hear him very well began to$9$ wander  
020:120,04['  ]| round the hall again.  Stephen did not argue with McCann  
020:120,05['  ]| but at a convenient pause he said:   
020:120,06[B  ]| ~~ I have no$2$ intention of signing.  
020:120,07['  ]| McCann halted and Cranly said, taking Stephen's arm: 
020:120,08[R  ]| ~~ \Nos ad manum ballum jocabimus\.   
020:120,09[H  ]| ~~ All right, 
020:120,09['  ]| said McCann promptly, as if he was accustomed  
020:120,10['  ]| to$4$ rebuffs, 
020:120,10[H  ]| if you will$1$ not, you will$1$ not.  
020:120,11['  ]| He went off to$9$ get more signatures for$4$ the Tsar  
020:120,12['  ]| while Cranly and Stephen went out into the garden.  The ball-alley  
020:120,13['  ]| was deserted so$3$ they arranged a match of twenty, 
020:120,14['  ]| Cranly allowing Stephen seven points.  Stephen had not had  
020:120,15['  ]| much practice at the game and so$3$ he was only seventeen  
020:120,16['  ]| when Cranly cried out 
020:120,16[R  ]| ""Game*Ball"".  
020:120,16['  ]| He lost the second game  
020:120,17['  ]| also.  Cranly was a strong, accurate player but Stephen  
020:120,18['  ]| thought 
020:120,18[XB ]| too heavy of foot to$9$ be a brilliant one.  
020:120,18['  ]| While they  
020:120,19['  ]| were playing Madden came into the alley and sat down on$4$  
020:120,20['  ]| an old box.  He was much more excited than either of the  
020:120,21['  ]| players and kept kicking the box with his heels and crying 
020:120,22['  ]| out 
020:120,22[F  ]| ""Now, Cranly!  Now, Cranly!""  ""But it, Stevie!""  
020:120,22['  ]| Cranly  
020:120,23['  ]| who$6#1$ had to$9$ serve the third game put the ball over the side  
020:120,24['  ]| of the alley into Lord*Iveagh's grounds and the game had  
020:120,25['  ]| to$9$ wait while he went in$4$ search of it.  Stephen sat down on$4$ his  
020:120,26['  ]| heels beside Madden and they both looked up$5$ at the figure  
020:120,27['  ]| of Cranly who$6#1$ was holding on$5$ to$4$ the netting and making  
020:120,28['  ]| signals to$4$ one of the gardeners from the top of the wall.   
020:120,29['  ]| Madden took out smoking materials: 
020:120,30[F  ]| ~~ Are you and Cranly long here? 
020:120,31[B  ]| ~~ Not long, 
020:120,31['  ]| said Stephen.  
020:120,32['  ]| Madden began to$9$ stuff very coarse tobacco into his pipe: 
020:120,33[F  ]| ~~ Do you know what, Stevie? 
020:120,34[B  ]| ~~ What? 
020:120,35[F  ]| ~~ Hughes ~~ does not like$1$ you ~~ at all.  I heard him  
020:120,36[F  ]| speaking of you to$4$ someone.  
020:121,01[B  ]| ~~ ""Someone"" is vague.  
020:121,02[F  ]| ~~ He does not like$1$ you at all.  
020:121,03[B  ]| ~~ His enthusiasm carries him away, 
020:121,03['  ]| said Stephen.  
020:121,04['  ]| On$4$ the evening of the Saturday before Palm*Sunday  
020:121,05['  ]| Stephen found himself alone with Cranly.  The two were  
020:121,06['  ]| leaning over the marble staircase of the Library, idly 
020:121,07['  ]| watching the people coming in$5$ and going out.  The big  
020:121,08['  ]| windows in$4$ front of them were thrown and the mild  
020:121,09['  ]| air came through:   
020:121,10[B  ]| ~~ Do you like$1$ the services of Holy*Week?  
020:121,10['  ]| said Stephen.  
020:121,11[R  ]| ~~ Yes, 
020:121,11['  ]| said Cranly.  
020:121,12[B  ]| ~~ They are wonderful, 
020:121,12['  ]| said Stephen.  
020:121,12[B  ]| Tenebrae ~~ it is so$5#1$  
020:121,13[B  ]| damned childish to$9$ frighten us by$4$ knocking prayerbooks on$4$  
020:121,14[B  ]| a bench.  Is not it strange to$9$ see the Mass*of*the*Presanctified  
020:121,15[B  ]| ~~ no$2$ lights or vestments, the altar naked, the door of the  
020:121,16[B  ]| tabernacle gaping open, the priests lying prostrate on$4$ the  
020:121,17[B  ]| altar steps? 
020:121,18[R  ]| ~~ Yes, 
020:121,18['  ]| said Cranly.  
020:121,19[B  ]| ~~ Do not you think the Reader who$6#1$ begins the mass is a  
020:121,20[B  ]| strange person.  No-one knows where he comes from:  he  
020:121,21[B  ]| has no$2$ connection with the mass.  He comes out by$4$ himself  
020:121,22[B  ]| and opens a book at the right hand side of the altar and when  
020:121,23[B  ]| he has read the lesson he closes the book and goes away as  
020:121,24[B  ]| he came.  Is not he strange? 
020:121,25[R  ]| ~~ Yes, 
020:121,25['  ]| said Cranly.  
020:121,26[B  ]| ~~ You know how his lesson begins?  
020:121,26[Z  ]| \7Dixit 7enim 7Dominus""\   
020:121,27[Z  ]| \7in 7tribulatione 7sua 7consurgent 7ad 7me:  7venite 7et 7revertamur 7ad 7Dominum\ ~~ 
020:121,28['  ]| He chanted the opening of the lesson in$4$ \7mezza 7voce\ and  
020:121,29['  ]| his voice went flowing down the staircase and round the circular  
020:121,30['  ]| hall, each tone coming back upon$4$ the ear enriched and  
020:121,31['  ]| softened.  
020:121,32[B  ]| ~~ He pleads, 
020:121,32['  ]| said Stephen.  
020:121,32[B  ]| He is what that$6#2$ chalk-faced  
020:121,33[B  ]| chap was for$4$ me, 
020:121,33[Z  ]| \7advocatus 7diaboli\.  
020:121,33[B  ]| Jesus has no$2$ friend on$4$  
020:121,34[B  ]| Good*Friday.  Do you know what kind of a figure rises before  
020:121,35[B  ]| me on$4$ Good*Friday? 
020:122,01[R  ]| ~~ What kind? 
020:122,02[B  ]| ~~ An ugly little man who$6#1$ has taken into his body the sins  
020:122,03[B  ]| of the world:  Something between Socrates and a Gnostic*Christ  
020:122,04[B  ]| ~~ A Christ of the Dark*Ages.  That$6#2$ is what his mission  
020:122,05[B  ]| of redemption has got for$4$ him:  a crooked ugly body for$4$  
020:122,06[B  ]| which$6#1$ neither God nor man have pity.  Jesus is on$4$ strange  
020:122,07[B  ]| terms with that$6#2$ father of his.  His father seems to$4$ me something  
020:122,08[B  ]| of a snob.  Do you notice that$3$ he never notices his son  
020:122,09[B  ]| publicly but once ~~ when Jesus is in$4$ full dress on$4$ the top of  
020:122,10[B  ]| Thabor? 
020:122,11[R  ]| ~~ I do not like$1$ Holy*Thursday much, 
020:122,11['  ]| said Cranly.  
020:122,12[B  ]| ~~ Neither do I.  There are too many mammas and  
020:122,13[B  ]| daughters going chapel-hunting.  The chapel smells too  
020:122,14[B  ]| much of flowers and hot candles and women.  Besides girls 
020:122,15[B  ]| praying put me off my stroke.  
020:122,16[R  ]| ~~ Do you like$1$ Holy*Saturday? 
020:122,17[B  ]| ~~ The service is always too early but I like$1$ it.  
020:122,18[R  ]| ~~ I like$1$ it.  
020:122,19[B  ]| ~~ Yes, the Church seems to$9$ have thought the matter over  
020:122,20[B  ]| and to$9$ be saying 
020:122,20[X  ]| ""Well, after all, you see, it is morning now  
020:122,21[X  ]| and he was not so$5#1$ dead as we thought he was.""  
020:122,21[B  ]| The corpse has  
020:122,22[B  ]| become a paschal candle with five grains of incense stuck in$4$  
020:122,23[B  ]| it instead of its five wounds.  The three faithful Marys too  
020:122,24[B  ]| who$6#1$ thought all was over on$4$ Friday have a candle each.   
020:122,25[B  ]| The bells ring and the service is full of irrelevant alleluias.   
020:122,26[B  ]| It is rather a technical affair, blessing this, that$6#2$ and the other  
020:122,27[B  ]| but it is cheerfully ceremonious.  
020:122,28[R  ]| ~~ But you do not imagine the damned fools of people  
020:122,29[R  ]| see anything in$4$ these services, do you? 
020:122,30[B  ]| ~~ Do they not?  
020:122,30['  ]| said Stephen.  
020:122,31[R  ]| ~~ Bah, 
020:122,31['  ]| said Cranly.  
020:122,32['  ]| One of Cranly's friends came up$4$ the stairs while they were  
020:123,01['  ]| talking.  He was a young man who$6#1$ was by$4$ day a clerk in$4$  
020:123,02['  ]| Guinness's*Brewery and by$4$ night a student of mental and  
020:123,03['  ]| moral philosophy in$4$ the night classes of the college.  It was, 
020:123,04['  ]| of course, Cranly who$6#1$ had induced him to$9$ attend.  This young  
020:123,05['  ]| man, who$6#1$ was named Glynn, was unable to$9$ keep his head  
020:123,06['  ]| steady as he suffered from inherited nervousness and his  
020:123,07['  ]| hands trembled very much whenever he tried to$9$ do anything 
020:123,08['  ]| with them.  He spoke with nervous hesitations and seemed to$9$  
020:123,09['  ]| obtain satisfaction only in$4$ the methodic stamp of his feet.   
020:123,10['  ]| He was a low-sized young man, with a nigger's face and the  
020:123,11['  ]| curly black head of a nigger.  He usually carried an umbrella  
020:123,12['  ]| and his conversation was for$4$ the most part a translation of  
020:123,13['  ]| commonplaces into polysyllabic phrases.  This habit he  
020:123,14['  ]| cultivated partly because it saved him from the inconvenience  
020:123,15['  ]| of cerebrating at the normal rate and perhaps  
020:123,16['  ]| because he considered it was the channel best fitted for$4$ his  
020:123,17['  ]| peculiar humour.  
020:123,18[R  ]| ~~ Here is Professor Bloody-Big-Umbrella*Glynn, 
020:123,18['  ]| said  
020:123,19['  ]| Cranly.  
020:123,20[V  ]| ~~ Good evening, gentlemen, 
020:123,20['  ]| said Glynn, bowing.  
020:123,21[R  ]| ~~ Good ~~ evening, 
020:123,21['  ]| said Cranly vacantly.  
020:123,21[R  ]| Well, yes ~~  
020:123,22[R  ]| it is a good evening.  
020:123,23[V  ]| ~~ I can see, 
020:123,23['  ]| said Glynn shaking a trembling forefinger in$4$  
020:123,24['  ]| reproof, 
020:123,24[V  ]| I san see that$3$ you are about to$9$ make obvious  
020:123,25[V  ]| remarks.  
020:123,26['  ]| On$4$ Spy*Wednesday night Cranly and Stephen attended  
020:123,27['  ]| the office of Tenebrae in$4$ the Pro-Cathedral.  They went  
020:123,28['  ]| round to$4$ the back of the altar and knelt behind the students  
020:123,29['  ]| from Clonliffe who$6#1$ were chanting the office.  Stephen was  
020:123,30['  ]| right opposite Wells and he observed the great change which$6#1$  
020:123,31['  ]| a surplice made in$4$ that$6#2$ young man's appearance.  Stephen  
020:123,32['  ]| did not like$1$ the office which$6#1$ was gabbled over quickly.  He  
020:123,33['  ]| said to$4$ Cranly 
020:123,33[YB ]| that$3$ the chapel with its polished benches and  
020:123,34[YB ]| incandescent lamps reminded him of an insurance office.   
020:123,35['  ]| Cranly arranged that$3$ on$4$ Good*Friday they should attend the  
020:123,36['  ]| office in$4$ the Carmelite*Church, Whitefriar's*St where, he  
020:124,01['  ]| said, 
020:124,01[YR ]| the office was much more homely.  
020:124,01['  ]| Cranly accompanied  
020:124,02['  ]| Stephen part of the way home and explained very minutely, 
020:124,03['  ]| using his large hands for$4$ the purpose, all the merits of  
020:124,04['  ]| Wicklow bacon.  
020:124,05[B  ]| ~~ You are no$2$ Israelite, 
020:124,05['  ]| said Stephen, 
020:124,05[B  ]| I see you eat the  
020:124,06[B  ]| unclean animal.  
020:124,07[YR ]| Cranly replied that$3$ it was nonsense to$9$ consider the pig  
020:124,08[YR ]| unclean because he ate dirty garbage and at the same time  
020:124,09[YR ]| to$9$ consider the oyster, which$6#1$ fed chiefly on$4$ excrements, a  
020:124,10[YR ]| delicacy.  He believed that$3$ the pig was much maligned:  he  
020:124,11[YR ]| said there was a lot of money to$9$ be made out of pigs.  He  
020:124,12[YR ]| instanced all the Germans who$6#1$ made small fortunes in$4$ Dublin  
020:124,13[YR ]| by$4$ opening pork-shops.  
020:124,14[R  ]| ~~ I often thought seriously, 
020:124,14['  ]| he said stopping in$4$ his walk to$9$  
020:124,15['  ]| give emphasis to$4$ his remark, 
020:124,15[R  ]| of opening a pork-shop, do you  
020:124,16[R  ]| know ~~ and putting \Kranliberg\ or some German name, 
020:124,17[R  ]| do you know, over the door ~~ and makin' a flamin' fortune  
020:124,18[R  ]| out of pig's meat.  
020:124,19[B  ]| ~~ God bless us!  
020:124,19['  ]| said Stephen.  
020:124,19[B  ]| What a terrible idea! 
020:124,20[R  ]| ~~ Ay, 
020:124,20['  ]| said Cranly walking on$5$ heavily, 
020:124,20[R  ]| a flamin' bloody  
020:124,21[R  ]| fortune I would make.  
020:124,22['  ]| On$4$ Good*Friday as Stephen was wandering aimlessly  
020:124,23['  ]| about the city he caught sight of a placard on$4$ a wall which$6#1$  
020:124,24['  ]| announced that$3$ the Three*Hours'*Agony would be preached  
020:124,25['  ]| by$4$ the Very*Reverend*W%*Dillon*S%*J% and the Very*Reverend*J%*Campbell*S%*J%  
020:124,26['  ]| in$4$ the Jesuit*Church, Gardiner*St.  Stephen  
020:124,27['  ]| felt very solitary and purposeless as he traversed empty  
020:124,28['  ]| street after empty street and, without being keenly aware of  
020:124,29['  ]| it, he began to$9$ proceed in$4$ the direction of Gardiner*St.  It  
020:124,30['  ]| was a warm sunless day and the city wore an air of sacred  
020:124,31['  ]| torpor.  As he passed under S%*George's*Church he saw that$3$  
020:124,32['  ]| it was already half past two; ~~ he had been three hours  
020:124,33['  ]| wandering up$4$ and down the city.  He entered the Church in$4$  
020:124,34['  ]| Gardiner*St and, passing by$5$ without honouring the table  
020:125,01['  ]| of the lay-brother who$6#1$ roused himself from a stupefied doze 
020:125,02['  ]| in$4$ expectation of silver, arrived in$4$ the right wing of the  
020:125,03['  ]| chapel.  The chapel was crowded from altar to$4$ doors with  
020:125,04['  ]| a well-dressed multitude.  Everywhere he saw the same  
020:125,05['  ]| flattered affection for$4$ the Jesuits who$6#1$ are in$4$ the habit of  
020:125,06['  ]| attaching to$4$ their order the souls of thousands of the insecurely  
020:125,07['  ]| respectable middle-class by$4$ offering them a refined  
020:125,08['  ]| asylum, an interested, a considerate confessional, a particular  
020:125,09['  ]| amiableness of manners which$6#1$ their spiritual adventures in$4$  
020:125,10['  ]| no$2$ way entitled them to$9$.  Not very far from him in$4$ the shelter  
020:125,11['  ]| of one of the pillars Stephen saw his father and two friends.   
020:125,12['  ]| His father had directed his eyeglass upon$4$ the distant choir  
020:125,13['  ]| and his face wore an expression of impressed piety.  The choir  
020:125,14['  ]| was executing some florid tracery which$6#1$ was intended as an 
020:125,15['  ]| expression of mourning.  The walk, the heat, the crush, the  
020:125,16['  ]| darkness of the chapel overcame Stephen and, leaning against  
020:125,17['  ]| the lintel of the door, he half closed his eyes and allowed his  
020:125,18['  ]| thoughts to$9$ drift.  Rhymes began to$9$ make themselves in$4$ his  
020:125,19['  ]| head.  
020:125,20['  ]| He perceived dimly that$3$ a white figure had ascended the  
020:125,21['  ]| pulpit and he heard a voice saying \7Consummatum 7est\.  He  
020:125,22['  ]| recognised the voice and he knew that$3$ Father*Dillon was  
020:125,23['  ]| preaching on$4$ the Seventh*Word.  He took no$2$ trouble to$9$ hear 
020:125,24['  ]| the sermon but every few minutes he heard a new translation  
020:125,25['  ]| of the Word rolling over the congregation.  
020:125,25[Z  ]| ""It is ended"" ""It is  
020:125,26[Z  ]| accomplished"".  
020:125,26['  ]| This sensation awoke him from his daydream  
020:125,27['  ]| and as the translations followed one another  
020:125,28['  ]| more and more rapidly he found his gambling instinct on$4$ the  
020:125,29['  ]| alert.  He wagered with himself as to$4$ what word the preacher  
020:125,30['  ]| would select.  
020:125,30[Z  ]| ""It is ~~ accomplished"" ""It is ~~ consummated""   
020:125,31[Z  ]| ""It is ~~ achieved"".  
020:125,31['  ]| In$4$ the few seconds which$6#1$ intervened  
020:125,32['  ]| between the first part and the second part of the phrase  
020:125,33['  ]| Stephen's mind performed feats of divining agility 
020:125,33[Z  ]| ""It is ~~  
020:125,34[Z  ]| finished"" ""It is ~~ completed"" ""It is ~~ concluded"".  
020:125,34['  ]| At last with  
020:125,35['  ]| a final burst of rhetoric Father*Dillon cried out that$3$ it was  
020:125,36['  ]| over and the congregation began to$9$ pour itself out into the 
020:126,01['  ]| streets.  Stephen was borne along in$4$ the crowd and everywhere  
020:126,02['  ]| about him he heard the same murmurs of admiration  
020:126,03['  ]| and saw the same expressions of satisfaction, discreet murmurs, 
020:126,04['  ]| subdued expressions.  The special charges of the  
020:126,05['  ]| Jesuits were congratulating themselves and one another on$4$ a  
020:126,06['  ]| well-spent Good*Friday.  
020:126,07['  ]| To$9$ avoid his father Stephen slipped round towards the  
020:126,08['  ]| body of the chapel and waited in$4$ the central porch while the  
020:126,09['  ]| common people came shuffling and stumbling past him.   
020:126,10['  ]| Here also there was admiration, satisfaction.  A young workman  
020:126,11['  ]| passed out with his wife and Stephen heard the words  
020:126,12[X  ]| ""He knows his thayology, I tell ye.""  
020:126,12['  ]| Two women stopped  
020:126,13['  ]| beside the holy water font and after scraping their hands  
020:126,14['  ]| vainly over the bottom crossed themselves in$4$ a slovenly  
020:126,15['  ]| fashion with their dry hands.  One of them sighed and drew  
020:126,16['  ]| her brown shawl about her: 
020:126,17[X  ]| ~~ An' his language, 
020:126,17['  ]| said the other woman.  
020:126,18[X  ]| ~~ Aw yis.  
020:126,19['  ]| Here the other woman sighed in$4$ her turn and drew her  
020:126,20['  ]| shawl about her: 
020:126,21[X  ]| ~~ On'y, 
020:126,21['  ]| said she, 
020:126,21[X  ]| God bless the gintleman, he uses the  
020:126,22[X  ]| words that$6#1$ you nor me can not intarprit.  
021:127,01['  ]| BETWEEN Easter and the end of May Stephen's acquaintance  
021:127,02['  ]| with Cranly progressed night by$4$ night.  As the time  
021:127,03['  ]| of the Summer*Examinations was approaching Maurice and  
021:127,04['  ]| Stephen were both supposed to$9$ be hard at work.  Maurice  
021:127,05['  ]| retired to$4$ his room carefully every evening after tea-time and  
021:127,06['  ]| Stephen repaired to$4$ the Library where he was supposed to$9$  
021:127,07['  ]| be engaged in$4$ serious work.  As a matter of fact he read little  
021:127,08['  ]| or nothing in$4$ the Library.  He talked with Cranly by$4$ the  
021:127,09['  ]| hour either at a table, or, if removed by$4$ the librarian or by$4$  
021:127,10['  ]| the indignant glances of students, standing at the top of the  
021:127,11['  ]| staircase.  At ten o'clock when the library closed the two  
021:127,12['  ]| returned together through the central streets exchanging  
021:127,13['  ]| banalities with other students.   
021:127,14['  ]| It would seem at first somewhat strange and improbable  
021:127,15['  ]| that$3$ these two young men should have anything in$4$ common  
021:127,16['  ]| beyond an incurable desire for$4$ leisure.  Stephen had begun  
021:127,17['  ]| to$9$ regard himself seriously as a literary artist:  he professed  
021:127,18['  ]| scorn for$4$ the rabblement and contempt for$4$ authority.   
021:127,19['  ]| Cranly's chosen companions represented the rabblement in$4$  
021:127,20['  ]| a stage of partial fermentation when it is midway between  
021:127,21['  ]| vat and flagon and Cranly seemed to$9$ please himself in$4$ the  
021:127,22['  ]| spectacle of his caricature of his own unreadiness.  Anyhow  
021:127,23['  ]| towards rabblement and authority alike he behaved with  
021:127,24['  ]| submissive defence and Stephen would have been disposed  
021:127,25['  ]| to$9$ regard this too mature demeanour as a real sign of interior  
021:127,26['  ]| corruption had he not daily evidence that$3$ Cranly was willing  
021:127,27['  ]| to$9$ endanger his own fair name as a member of the Sodality  
021:127,28['  ]| and as a general lay-servant of the Church by$4$ association 
021:127,29['  ]| with one who$6#1$ was known to$9$ be contaminated.  Cranly, 
021:127,30['  ]| however, might have wished the fathers to$9$ suppose that$3$ he  
021:127,31['  ]| went with the rebellious young artist with the secret purpose  
021:127,32['  ]| of leading him back again to$4$ good ways and, as if from a  
021:127,33['  ]| secret appreciation of his own fitness for$4$ such a task, he always  
021:128,01['  ]| enlarged and interpreted the doctrines of the Church side  
021:128,02['  ]| by$4$ side with Stephen's theories.  Thus confronted, it was a  
021:128,03['  ]| trick of the pleader for$4$ orthodoxy to$9$ suggest a possible 
021:128,04['  ]| reconciliation between neighbours and to$9$ suggest  
021:128,05['  ]| further that$3$ the Church would not be over hasty in$4$ condemning  
021:128,06['  ]| vagaries of architecture or even the use of pagan emblems  
021:128,07['  ]| and flourishes so$5#1$ long as her ground rent was paid  
021:128,08['  ]| quarterly in$4$ advance.  These accommodating business terms, 
021:128,09['  ]| which$6#1$ would have seemed of suspicious piety to$4$ more to$4$ more simple  
021:128,10['  ]| souls, were not likely to$9$ startle two young men who$6#1$ were  
021:128,11['  ]| fond of tracing even moral phenomena back to$4$ the region of 
021:128,12['  ]| their primal cells.  The moral doctrine of Catholicism  
021:128,13['  ]| so$5#1$ cunningly lined and interwoven with a studious alloy of  
021:128,14['  ]| conscience was capable under the management of a nimble  
021:128,15['  ]| spirit of performing feats of extension and contraction.  After 
021:128,16['  ]| a thousand such changes of form this elastic body was  
021:128,17['  ]| suddenly detected in$4$ a change of position and a point  
021:128,18['  ]| hitherto external was now seen to$9$ be well enclosed within it:   
021:128,19['  ]| and all this imperceptibly, while the eye was lulled by$4$ the  
021:128,20['  ]| mere exhibition of so$5#1$ many variations executed with a certain  
021:128,21['  ]| amoeboid instinct.   
021:128,22['  ]| As for$4$ artistic sympathies Cranly could hardly be said to$9$  
021:128,23['  ]| offer these.  He had all the rustic's affection for$4$ the prosaic  
021:128,24['  ]| things of the six days of the week and, in$4$ addition to$4$ this, he  
021:128,25['  ]| lacked the hypocritical taste which$6#1$ the rustic arfects for$4$ the  
021:128,26['  ]| fine arts on$4$ the seventh day.  In$4$ the Library he read nothing 
021:128,27['  ]| but the weekly illustrated papers.  Sometimes he took a big  
021:128,28['  ]| book from the counter and carried it solemnly to$4$ his place  
021:128,29['  ]| where he opened it and studied the title-page and preface  
021:128,30['  ]| for$4$ an hour or so$5#2$.  Of fine literature he had, almost literally  
021:128,31['  ]| speaking, no$2$ knowledge.  His acquaintance with English  
021:128,32['  ]| prose seemed to$9$ be limited to$4$ a hazy acquaintance with the  
021:128,33['  ]| beginning of \Nicholas*Nickleby\ and of English verse he had  
021:128,34['  ]| certainly read Wordsworth's poem which$6#1$ is called \Advice*to*a*Father\.   
021:128,35['  ]| Both of these accomplishments he divulged to$4$  
021:128,36['  ]| Stephen one day when he had been discovered reading with  
021:129,01['  ]| great attention the title-page of a book which$6#1$ was called 
021:129,02['  ]| \Diseases*of*the*Ox\.  He offered no$2$ comment on$4$ what he had  
021:129,03['  ]| read and simply stated the achievement not without wonder  
021:129,04['  ]| at his having achieved it.  He had a straggling regiment of  
021:129,05['  ]| words at his command and he was thus enabled to$9$ express 
021:129,06['  ]| himself:  but he spoke flatly and frequently made childish  
021:129,07['  ]| errors.  He had a defiant manner of using technical and  
021:129,08['  ]| foreign terms as if he wished to$9$ suggest that$3$ for$4$ him they  
021:129,09['  ]| were mere conventions of language.  His receptiveness was  
021:129,10['  ]| not troubled by$4$ any nausea; he received everything that$6#1$  
021:129,11['  ]| came in$4$ his way and it was purely instinctive of Stephen to$9$  
021:129,12['  ]| perceive any special affinity in$4$ so$5#1$ indiscriminate a vessel.  He  
021:129,13['  ]| was fond of leading a philosophical argument back to$4$ the  
021:129,14['  ]| machinery of the intellectual faculty itself and in$4$ mundane  
021:129,15['  ]| matters he did likewise, testing everything by$4$ its food value.   
021:129,16['  ]| It was in$4$ favour of this young man that$3$ Stephen decided  
021:129,17['  ]| to$9$ break his commandment of reticence.  Cranly, on$4$ his  
021:129,18['  ]| side, must have been above all the accidents of life if he  
021:129,19['  ]| had not suffered a slight commotion from such delicately  
021:129,20['  ]| insistent flattery.  Stephen spoke to$4$ his impoverished ear  
021:129,21['  ]| out of the plenitude of an amassed vocabulary, and confronted  
021:129,22['  ]| the daring commonplaces of his companion's moods  
021:129,23['  ]| with a complex radiance of thought.  Cranly seldom or  
021:129,24['  ]| never obtruded his presence upon$4$ these monologues.  He  
021:129,25['  ]| listened to$4$ all, seemed to$9$ understand all, and seemed to$9$  
021:129,26['  ]| think it was the duty of his suppositious character to$9$ listen and 
021:129,27['  ]| understand.  He never refused his ear.  Stephen  
021:129,28['  ]| claimed it in$4$ and out of season as he felt the need for$4$ intelligent  
021:129,29['  ]| sympathy.  They promenaded miles of the streets  
021:129,30['  ]| together, arm-in-arm.  They halted in$4$ wet weather under  
021:129,31['  ]| spacious porches, desisting at the sight of some inviting  
021:129,32['  ]| triviality.  They sat sometimes in$4$ the pit of a music-hall and  
021:129,33['  ]| one unfolded to$4$ the other the tapestry of his poetical aims  
021:129,34['  ]| while the band bawled to$4$ the comedian and the comedian  
021:129,35['  ]| bawled to$4$ the band.  Cranly grew used to$4$ having sensations  
021:129,36['  ]| and impressions recorded and analysed before him at the  
021:130,01['  ]| very instant of their apparition.  Such concentration upon$4$ 
021:130,02['  ]| oneself was unknown to$4$ him and he wondered at  
021:130,03['  ]| first with the joy of solitary possession at Stephen's ingenuous  
021:130,04['  ]| arrogance.  This phenomenon, which$6#1$ called all his previous  
021:130,05['  ]| judgments to$9$ account, and opened out a new system of life  
021:130,06['  ]| at the last limit of his world, rankled somewhat  
021:130,07['  ]| in$4$ his mind.  It irritated him also because he knew  
021:130,08['  ]| too well the large percentage of Christian sentiment which$6#1$ 
021:130,09['  ]| concealed itself under his veneer of Stoicism to$9$ suspect  
021:130,10['  ]| himself of any talent for$4$ a similar extravagance.  And yet, 
021:130,11['  ]| hearing the wholehearted young egoist pour out his pride  
021:130,12['  ]| and anger at his feet like$4$ some costly ointment, and benefiting 
021:130,13['  ]| by$4$ a liberality which$6#1$ seemed to$9$ keep nothing in$4$ reserve, 
021:130,14['  ]| much as he would have liked to$9$ hold himself aloof from such  
021:130,15['  ]| ties he felt himself gradually answering the appeal by$4$ a silent, 
021:130,16['  ]| perverse affection.  He affected more brutality than was in$4$  
021:130,17['  ]| his nature and, as if infected by$4$ his companion's arrogance, 
021:130,18['  ]| seemed to$9$ expect that$3$ the practice of aggressive criticism  
021:130,19['  ]| would be suspended in$4$ his case.   
021:130,20['  ]| A licence which$6#1$ he allowed himself rather freely was that$6#2$  
021:130,21['  ]| of impolite abstraction, so$5#1$ deep as to$9$ suggest great mental  
021:130,22['  ]| activity but issuing at last in$4$ some blunt actuality.  If a  
021:130,23['  ]| monologue which$6#1$ had set out from a triviality  
021:130,24['  ]| seemed to$4$ him likely to$9$ run on$5$ unduly he would receive it  
021:130,25['  ]| with a silence through which$6#1$ aversion was just discernible and  
021:130,26['  ]| at a lull bring his hammer down brutally on$4$ the poor orginal  
021:130,27['  ]| object.  At times Stephen found this ultra-classical habit  
021:130,28['  ]| very unpalatable.  One evening the monologue was interrupted  
021:130,29['  ]| time after time.  Stephen had mentioned his sister's  
021:130,30['  ]| illness and had spread out a few leagues of theory on$4$ the  
021:130,31['  ]| subject of the tyranny of home.  Cranly never actually  
021:130,32['  ]| broke in$5$ upon$4$ the oration but he continued inserting question  
021:130,33['  ]| after question whenever he had an opening.  He asked  
021:130,34['  ]| Isabel's age, her symptoms, her doctor's name, her treatment, 
021:130,35['  ]| her diet, her appearance, how her mother nursed her, 
021:130,36['  ]| whether they had sent for$4$ a priest or not, whether she had  
021:131,01['  ]| ever been sick before or not.  Stephen answered all these  
021:131,02['  ]| questions and still Cranly was not satisfied.  He continued  
021:131,03['  ]| his questions until the monologue had in$4$ all decency to$9$ be  
021:131,04['  ]| abandoned; and Stephen, thinking over his manner, was  
021:131,05['  ]| unable to$9$ decide whether such conduct was to$9$ be considered  
021:131,06['  ]| the sign of a deep interest in$4$ a human illness or the sign of  
021:131,07['  ]| irritated dissatisfaction with an inhuman theorist.   
021:131,08['  ]| Stephen did not in$4$ the least shrink from applying the  
021:131,09['  ]| reproach to$4$ himself but he found himself honestly unable  
021:131,10['  ]| to$9$ admit its justice.  His sister had become almost a stranger  
021:131,11['  ]| to$4$ him on$4$ account of the way in$4$ which$6#1$ she had been brought  
021:131,12['  ]| up$5$.  He had hardly spoken a hundred words to$4$ her since the  
021:131,13['  ]| time when they had been children together.  He could not  
021:131,14['  ]| speak to$4$ her now except as to$4$ a stranger.  She had acquiesced  
021:131,15['  ]| in$4$ the religion of her mother; she had accepted everything 
021:131,16['  ]| that$6#1$ had been proposed to$4$ her.  If she lived she had exactly  
021:131,17['  ]| the temper for$4$ a Catholic wife of limited intelligence and  
021:131,18['  ]| of pious docility and if she died she was supposed to$9$ have  
021:131,19['  ]| earned for$4$ herself a place in$4$ the eternal heaven of Christians 
021:131,20['  ]| from which$6#1$ her two brothers were likely to$9$ be shut out.   
021:131,21['  ]| Calamities in$4$ this world are reported to$9$ sit lightly on$4$ the  
021:131,22['  ]| shoulders of the true Christian who$6#1$ can bide his time until  
021:131,23['  ]| the Creator institutes the kingdom of the good.  Isabel's 
021:131,24['  ]| case moved Stephen's anger and commiseration but he  
021:131,25['  ]| saw at once how hopeless it was and how vain it would be for$4$  
021:131,26['  ]| him to$9$ interfere.  Her life had been and would always be a  
021:131,27['  ]| trembling walk before God.  The slightest interchange of  
021:131,28['  ]| ideas between them must be either a condescension on$4$ his  
021:131,29['  ]| part or an attempt to$9$ corrupt.  No$2$ consciousness of their  
021:131,30['  ]| nearness in$4$ blood troubled him with natural, unreasoning  
021:131,31['  ]| affection.  She was called his sister as his mother was called  
021:131,32['  ]| his mother but there had never been any proof of that$6#2$ relation  
021:131,33['  ]| offered him in$4$ their emotional attitude towards him, or 
021:131,34['  ]| any recognition of it permitted in$4$ his emotional attitude 
021:131,35['  ]| towards them.  The Catholic husband and wife, the Catholic  
021:131,36['  ]| father and mother, are allowed to$9$ be natural at discretion  
021:132,01['  ]| but the same grace is not vouchsafed to$4$ Catholic children.   
021:132,02['  ]| They must preserve an unquestioning orderliness even at the  
021:132,03['  ]| risk of being upbraided as unnatural by$4$ the very preachers  
021:132,04['  ]| who$6#1$ assert that$3$ nature is the possession of Satan.   
021:132,05['  ]| Stephen had felt impulses of pity for$4$ his mother, for$4$ his  
021:132,06['  ]| father, for$4$ Isabel, for$4$ Wells also but he believed that$3$ he had  
021:132,07['  ]| done right in$4$ resisting them:  he had first of all to$9$ save himself  
021:132,08['  ]| and he had no$2$ business trying to$9$ save others unless his  
021:132,09['  ]| experiment with himself justified him.  Cranly had all but  
021:132,10['  ]| formulated serious charges against him, calling up$5$ by$4$ implication  
021:132,11['  ]| the picture of Isabel with her gradually wasting flame, 
021:132,12['  ]| her long dark hair and great wondering eyes, but Stephen  
021:132,13['  ]| stood up$5$ to$4$ the charges and answered in$4$ his heart that$3$ it was  
021:132,14['  ]| injustice to$9$ point a finger of reproach at him and that$3$ a  
021:132,15['  ]| vague inactive pity from those who$6#1$ upheld a system of  
021:132,16['  ]| mutual servile association towards those who$6#1$ accepted it was  
021:132,17['  ]| only a play upon$4$ emotions as characteristic of the egoist as  
021:132,18['  ]| of the man of sentiment.  Isabel, moreover, did not seem  
021:132,19['  ]| to$4$ Stephen to$9$ be in$4$ any great danger.  He told Cranly she  
021:132,20['  ]| was probably growing too fast; many girls were delicate at  
021:132,21['  ]| that$6#2$ age.  He confessed that$3$ the subject tired him a little.   
021:132,22['  ]| Cranly stood still and looked at him fixedly:   
021:132,23[R  ]| ~~ My dear man, 
021:132,23['  ]| said he 
021:132,23[R  ]| do you know what it is ~~ You are  
021:132,24[R  ]| an extraordinary ~~ man.   
021:132,25['  ]| A week before the examination Cranly explained to$4$  
021:132,26['  ]| Stephen his plan for$4$ reading the course in$4$ five days.  It  
021:132,27['  ]| was a carefully made plan, founded upon$4$ an intimate knowledge  
021:132,28['  ]| of examiners and examination papers.  Cranly's plan  
021:132,29['  ]| was to$9$ study from ten in$4$ the morning until half past two in$4$  
021:132,30['  ]| the afternoon, then from four to$4$ six, and then from half past  
021:132,31['  ]| seven to$4$ ten.  Stephen declined to$9$ follow this plan as he  
021:132,32['  ]| imagined he had a fair chance of passing on$4$ what he called  
021:132,33['  ]| ""roundabout"" knowledge but Cranly said that$3$ the plan was  
021:132,34['  ]| perfectly safe.   
021:132,35[B  ]| ~~ I do not quite see that$6#2$, 
021:132,35['  ]| said Stephen, 
021:132,35[B  ]| how can you  
021:132,36[B  ]| manage to$9$ pass ~~ in$4$ Latin composition, say ~~ after such a  
021:133,01[B  ]| cursory run over it?  If you like$1$ I will$1$ show you some things ~~  
021:133,02[B  ]| not that$3$ I can write so$5#1$ marvellously ~~  
021:133,03['  ]| Cranly meditated without seeming to$9$ observe the offer.   
021:133,04['  ]| Then he averred flatly that$3$ his plan would work:   
021:133,05[R  ]| ~~ I will$1$ take my dyin' bible, 
021:133,05['  ]| he said, 
021:133,05[R  ]| I will$1$ write them as good  
021:133,06[R  ]| a thing, do you know, ay ~~ as good a thing as they want.  What  
021:133,07[R  ]| do they know about Latin prose?   
021:133,08[B  ]| ~~ Not much, I suppose, 
021:133,08['  ]| said Stephen, 
021:133,08[B  ]| but they may not  
021:133,09[B  ]| be quite ignorant of Latin grammar.   
021:133,10['  ]| Cranly thought this over and then found his remedy:   
021:133,11[R  ]| ~~ Do you know what, 
021:133,11['  ]| he said, 
021:133,11[R  ]| whenever I can not think of the  
021:133,12[R  ]| grammar I will$1$ bring in$4$ a piece out of Tacitus.   
021:133,13[B  ]| ~~ 9Apropos of what?   
021:133,14[R  ]| ~~ What the flamin' hell does it matter what it is 9apropos  
021:133,15[R  ]| of?   
021:133,16[B  ]| ~~ Quite right, 
021:133,16['  ]| said Stephen.   
021:133,17['  ]| Cranly's plan neither succeeded nor failed for$4$ the very  
021:133,18['  ]| good reason that$3$ it was never followed.  The nights before  
021:133,19['  ]| the examination were spent sitting outside under the porch  
021:133,20['  ]| of the Library.  The two young men gazed up$5$ into the  
021:133,21['  ]| tranquil sky and discussed how it was possible to$9$ live with  
021:133,22['  ]| the least amount of labour.  Cranly suggested bees:  he  
021:133,23['  ]| seemed to$9$ know the entire economy of bee-life and he did  
021:133,24['  ]| not seem as intolerant towards bees as towards men.  Stephen  
021:133,25['  ]| said it would be a good arrangement if Cranly were to$9$ live  
021:133,26['  ]| on$4$ the labour of the bees and allow him (Stephen) to$9$ live on$4$  
021:133,27['  ]| the united labours of the bees and their keeper.   
021:133,28[Z  ]| ~~ ""I will$1$ watch from dawn to$4$ gloom 
021:133,29[Z  ]| The lake-reflected sun illume 
021:133,30[Z  ]| The yellow bees in$4$ the ivy bloom."" 
021:133,31[R  ]| ~~ ""Illume""?  
021:133,31['  ]| said Cranly.   
021:133,32[B  ]| ~~ You know the meaning of ""illume""?   
021:133,33[R  ]| ~~ Who$6#2$ wrote that$6#2$?   
021:133,34[B  ]| ~~ Shelley.   
021:134,01[R  ]| ~~ Illume ~~ it is just the word, do you know, for$4$ autumn, deep  
021:134,02[R  ]| gold colour.   
021:134,03[B  ]| ~~ A spiritual interpretation of landscape is very rare.   
021:134,04[B  ]| Some people think they write spiritually if they make their  
021:134,05[B  ]| scenery dim and cloudy.   
021:134,06[R  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ bit you said now does not seem to$4$ me spiritual.   
021:134,07[B  ]| ~~ Nor to$4$ me:  but sometimes Shelley does not address the  
021:134,08[B  ]| eye.  He says 
021:134,08[Z  ]| ""many a lake-surrounded flute"".  
021:134,08[B  ]| Does that$6#2$  
021:134,09[B  ]| strike your eye or your sense of colour?   
021:134,10[R  ]| ~~ Shelley has a face that$6#1$ reminds me of a bird.  What is  
021:134,11[R  ]| it?  
021:134,11[Z  ]| ""The lake-reflected sun illume""? ~~  
021:134,12[Z  ]| ~~ ""The lake-reflected sun illume 
021:134,13[Z  ]| The yellow bees in$4$ the ivy bloom."" 
021:134,14[V  ]| ~~ What are you quoting?  
021:134,14['  ]| asked Glynn who$6#1$ had just come  
021:134,15['  ]| out of the Library after several hours of study.   
021:134,16['  ]| Cranly surveyed him before answering:   
021:134,17[R  ]| ~~ Shelley.   
021:134,18[V  ]| ~~ O, Shelley?  What was the quotation again?   
021:134,19['  ]| Cranly nodded towards Stephen.   
021:134,20[V  ]| ~~ What was the quotation?  
021:134,20['  ]| asked Glynn.  
021:134,20[V  ]| Shelley is an  
021:134,21[V  ]| old flame of mine.   
021:134,22['  ]| Stephen repeated the lines and glynn nodded his head  
021:134,23['  ]| nervously several times in$4$ approval.   
021:134,24[V  ]| ~~ Beautiful poetry Shelley wrote, did not he?  So$5#1$ mystical.   
021:134,25[R  ]| ~~ Do you know what they call them yellow bees in$4$ Wickla?   
021:134,26['  ]| asked Cranly suddenly, turning to$4$ Glynn.   
021:134,27[V  ]| ~~ No$7$?  what?   
021:134,28[R  ]| ~~ Red-arsed bees.   
021:134,29['  ]| Cranly laughed loudly at his own remark and struck his  
021:134,30['  ]| heels on$4$ the granite steps. Glynn, conscious of a false position  
021:134,31['  ]| began to$9$ fumble with his umbrella and to$9$ search for$4$ one  
021:134,32['  ]| of his stock witticisms.   
021:134,33[V  ]| ~~ But that$6#2$ is only, 
021:134,33['  ]| he said, 
021:134,33[V  ]| if you will$1$ pardon the expression, 
021:134,34[V  ]| that$6#2$ is only so$5#2$ to$9$ speak ~~  
021:134,35[Z  ]| ~~ ""The lake-surrounded sun illume 
021:134,36[Z  ]| The red-arsed bees in$4$ the ivy bloom"" ~~ 
021:135,36[R  ]| it is every bit as  
021:135,01[R  ]| good bloody poetry as Shelley's 
021:135,01['  ]| said Cranly to$4$ Glynn.  
021:135,01[R  ]| What  
021:135,02[R  ]| do you think?   
021:135,03[V  ]| ~~ It seems to$4$ me undeniable, 
021:135,03['  ]| said Glynn driving his  
021:135,04['  ]| unsteady umbrella before him as an emphasis, 
021:135,04[V  ]| that$3$ the bees  
021:135,05[V  ]| are in$4$ the bloom.  Of that$6#2$ we may say that$3$ it is distinctly so$5#2$.   
021:135,06['  ]| The examination lasted five days.  After the first two days  
021:135,07['  ]| Cranly did not even go through the form of entering the  
021:135,08['  ]| examination hall but after each paper he was to$9$ be seen  
021:135,09['  ]| outside the University going over all the questions carefully 
021:135,10['  ]| with his more diligent friends.  
021:135,10['  ]| He said that$3$ the papers were  
021:135,11['  ]| very easy and that$3$ anyone could pass them on$4$ a fair knowledge.   
021:135,12['  ]| He did not ask Stephen any particular questions but  
021:135,13['  ]| said merely 
021:135,13[R  ]| ""I suppose you are through"".  
021:135,13[B  ]| ""I expect so$5#2$"" 
021:135,13['  ]| said  
021:135,14['  ]| Stephen.  McCann usually came to$9$ meet the students who$6#1$  
021:135,15['  ]| had been under examination.  He came partly because he  
021:135,16['  ]| considered it was part of his duty to$9$ show an interest in$4$ all  
021:135,17['  ]| that$6#1$ concerned the college, and partly because one of Mr*Daniel's  
021:135,18['  ]| daughters was under examination.  Stephen who$6#1$  
021:135,19['  ]| did not care very much whether he succeeded or failed in$4$  
021:135,20['  ]| the examination was very much amused observing the  
021:135,21['  ]| jealousies and nervous anxieties which$6#1$ tried to$9$ conceal themselves 
021:135,22['  ]| under airs of carelessness.  Students who$6#1$ had studied  
021:135,23['  ]| hard all the year pretended to$9$ be in$4$ the same case as idlers and  
021:135,24['  ]| idle and diligent both appeared to$9$ submit to$4$ the examinations  
021:135,25['  ]| with great unwillingness.  Those who$6#1$ were rivals did not 
021:135,26['  ]| speak to$4$ each other, being afraid to$9$ trust their eyes, but one  
021:135,27['  ]| questioned wandering acquaintances privily about the other's  
021:135,28['  ]| success.  Their excitement was so$5#1$ genuine that$3$ even the  
021:135,29['  ]| excitement of sex failed to$9$ overcome it.  The girl students  
021:135,30['  ]| were not the subject of the usual sniggers and jokes but were  
021:135,31['  ]| regarded with some aversion as sly enemies.  Some of the  
021:135,32['  ]| young men eased their enmity and vindicated their superiority  
021:135,33['  ]| at the same time by$4$ saying that$3$ it was no$2$ wonder the  
021:135,34['  ]| women would do well seeing that$3$ they could study ten hours  
021:135,35['  ]| a day all the year round.  McCann, who$6#1$ acted as go-between, 
021:135,36['  ]| told them the gossip from the other camp and it was  
021:136,01['  ]| he who$6#1$ spread the report that$3$ Landy would not get 
021:136,02['  ]| first class honours in$4$ English because Miss*Reeves had  
021:136,03['  ]| written and essay of twenty pages on$4$ \The*Use*and*Abuse*of*Ridicule\.   
021:136,04['  ]|  
021:136,05['  ]| The examination ended on$4$ Tuesday.  On$4$ Wednesday  
021:136,06['  ]| morning Stephen's mother seemed to$9$ be rather anxious.   
021:136,07['  ]| Stephen had not given his parents much satisfaction as to$4$ his  
021:136,08['  ]| conduct at the examination but he could not think that$3$ this  
021:136,09['  ]| was the cause of his mother's trouble:  he waited, however, 
021:136,10['  ]| for$4$ the trouble to$9$ declare itself.  His mother waited till the  
021:136,11['  ]| room was clear and then she said casually:   
021:136,12[M  ]| ~~ You have not made your Easter duty yet, have you, 
021:136,13[M  ]| Stephen?   
021:136,14['  ]| Stephen answered that$3$ he had not.   
021:136,15[M  ]| ~~ It would be better for$4$ you to$9$ go to$4$ confession in$4$ the daytime.   
021:136,16[M  ]| Tomorrow is Ascension*Thursday and the chapels are  
021:136,17[M  ]| sure to$9$ be crowded tonight by$4$ people who$6#1$ have left off  
021:136,18[M  ]| making their Easter duty till the last moment.  It is a wonder 
021:136,19[M  ]| people would not have more shame in$4$ them.  Goodness knows  
021:136,20[M  ]| they have time enough from Ash*Wednesday without waiting  
021:136,21[M  ]| till the stroke of twelve to$9$ go to$4$ the priest ~~ I am not speaking  
021:136,22[M  ]| of you, Stephen.  I know you have been studying for$4$ your  
021:136,23[M  ]| examination.  But people who$6#1$ have nothing to$9$ do ~~  
021:136,24['  ]| Stephen made no$2$ answer to$4$ this but went on$5$  
021:136,25['  ]| scraping diligently in$4$ his eggshell.   
021:136,26[M  ]| ~~ I have made my Easter duty already ~~ on$4$ Holy*Thursday  
021:136,27[M  ]| ~~ but I am going to$4$ the altar in$4$ the morning.  I  
021:136,28[M  ]| am making a novena and I want you to$9$ offer up$5$ your communion  
021:136,29[M  ]| for$4$ a special intention of mine.   
021:136,30[B  ]| ~~ What special intention?   
021:136,31[M  ]| ~~ Well, dear, I am very much concerned about Isabel ~~  
021:136,32[M  ]| I do not know what to$9$ think~~  
021:136,33['  ]| Stephen stuck his spoon angrily through the bottom of  
021:136,34['  ]| the shell and asked was there any more tea.   
021:136,35[M  ]| ~~ There is no$2$ more in$4$ the pot but I can boil some water  
021:136,36[M  ]| in$4$ a minute.   
021:137,01[B  ]| ~~ O, never mind.   
021:137,02[M  ]| ~~ It will$1$ not be a jiffy.   
021:137,03['  ]| Stephen allowed the water to$9$ be put on$5$ as it would  
021:137,04['  ]| give him time to$9$ put an end to$4$ the conversation.  He was  
021:137,05['  ]| much annoyed that$3$ his mother should try to$9$ wheedle him 
021:137,06['  ]| into conformity by$4$ using his sister's health as an argument.   
021:137,07['  ]| He felt that$3$ such an attempt dishonoured him and freed from  
021:137,08['  ]| the last dissuasions of considerate piety.  His mother put on$5$  
021:137,09['  ]| the water and appeared to$9$ be less anxious as if she had expected  
021:137,10['  ]| a blunt refusal.  She even ventured on$4$ the small talk  
021:137,11['  ]| of religious matrons.   
021:137,12[M  ]| ~~ I must try and get in$5$ to$4$ town tomorrow in$4$ time for$4$ High*Mass  
021:137,13[M  ]| in$4$ Marlborough*St.  Tomorrow is a great feast-day in$4$  
021:137,14[M  ]| the Church.   
021:137,15[B  ]| ~~ Why?  
021:137,15['  ]| asked Stephen smiling.   
021:137,16[M  ]| ~~ The Ascension of Our*Lord, 
021:137,16['  ]| answered his mother  
021:137,17['  ]| gravely.   
021:137,18[B  ]| ~~ And why is that$6#2$ a great feast-day?   
021:137,19[M  ]| ~~ Because it was on$4$ that$6#2$ day that$3$ he showed Himself  
021:137,20[M  ]| Divine:  he ascended into Heaven.   
021:137,21['  ]| Stephen began to$9$ plaster butter over a crusty heel of the  
021:137,22['  ]| loaf while his features settled into definite hostility:   
021:137,23[B  ]| ~~ Where did he go off?   
021:137,24[M  ]| ~~ From Mount*Olivet, 
021:137,24['  ]| answered his mother reddening  
021:137,25['  ]| under her eyes.   
021:137,26[B  ]| ~~ Head first?   
021:137,27[M  ]| ~~ What do you mean, Stephen?   
021:137,28[B  ]| ~~ I mean he must have been rather giddy by$4$ the time he  
021:137,29[B  ]| arrived.  Why did not he go by$4$ balloon?   
021:137,30[M  ]| ~~ Stephen, are you trying to$9$ scoff at Our*Lord?  I really  
021:137,31[M  ]| thought you had more intelligence than to$9$ use that$6#2$ kind of  
021:137,32[M  ]| language:  it is only what people who$6#1$ believe only in$4$ what  
021:137,33[M  ]| they can see under their noses say.  I am surprised.   
021:137,34[B  ]| ~~ Tell me, mother, 
021:137,34['  ]| said Stephen between mouthfuls, 
021:137,34[B  ]| do you  
021:137,35[B  ]| mean to$9$ tell me you believe that$3$ our friend went up$5$ off  
021:137,36[B  ]| the mountain as they say he did?   
021:138,01[M  ]| ~~ I do.   
021:138,02[B  ]| ~~ I do not.   
021:138,03[M  ]| ~~ What are you saying, Stephen?   
021:138,04[B  ]| ~~ It is absurd:  it is Barnum.  He comes into the world God  
021:138,05[B  ]| knows how, walks on$4$ the water, gets out of his grave and  
021:138,06[B  ]| goes up$5$ off the Hill*of*Howth.  What drivel is this?   
021:138,07[M  ]| ~~ Stephen!   
021:138,08[B  ]| ~~ I do not believe it:  and it would be no$2$ credit if I did.  It is  
021:138,09[B  ]| no$2$ credit to$4$ me that$3$ I do not.  It is drivel.   
021:138,10[M  ]| ~~ The most learned doctors of the Church believe it and  
021:138,11[M  ]| that$6#2$ is good enough for$4$ me.   
021:138,12[B  ]| ~~ He can fast for$4$ forty days.   
021:138,13[M  ]| ~~ God can do all things. ~~  
021:138,14[B  ]| ~~ There is a fellow in$4$ Capel*St at present in$4$ a show who$6#1$  
021:138,15[B  ]| says he can eat glass and hard nails.  He calls himself \The*Human*Ostrich\.  
021:138,16[B  ]|  
021:138,17[M  ]| ~~ Stephen, 
021:138,17['  ]| said his mother, 
021:138,17[M  ]| I am afraid you have lost your  
021:138,18[M  ]| faith.   
021:138,19[B  ]| ~~ I am afraid so$5#2$ too, 
021:138,19['  ]| said Stephen.   
021:138,20['  ]| Mrs*Daedalus looked very discomposed and sat down  
021:138,21['  ]| helplessly on$4$ the nearest chair.  Stephen fixed his attention  
021:138,22['  ]| on$4$ the water and when it was ready made himself another  
021:138,23['  ]| cup of tea.   
021:138,24[M  ]| ~~ I little thought, 
021:138,24['  ]| said his mother, 
021:138,24[M  ]| that$3$ it would come to$4$  
021:138,25[M  ]| this ~~ that$3$ a child of mine would lose the faith.   
021:138,26[B  ]| ~~ But you knew some time ago.   
021:138,27[M  ]| ~~ How could I know?   
021:138,28[B  ]| ~~ You knew.   
021:138,29[M  ]| ~~ I suspected something was wrong but I never thought  
021:138,30[M  ]| ~~  
021:138,31[B  ]| ~~ And yet you wanted me to$9$ receive Holy*Communion!   
021:138,32[M  ]| ~~ Of course, you cannot receive it now.  But I thought  
021:138,33[M  ]| you would make your Easter duty as you have done every  
021:138,34[M  ]| year up$5$ till now.  I do not know what led you astray unless  
021:138,35[M  ]| it was those books you read.  John, too, your uncle ~~ he was  
021:138,36[M  ]| led astray by$4$ books when he was young but ~~ only for$4$ a time.   
021:139,01[B  ]| ~~ Poor fellow!  
021:139,01['  ]| said Stephen.   
021:139,02[M  ]| ~~ You were religiously brought up$5$ by$4$ the Jesuits, in$4$ a  
021:139,03[M  ]| Catholic home ~~  
021:139,04[B  ]| ~~ A very Catholic home!   
021:139,05[M  ]| ~~ None of your people, neither your father's nor mine, 
021:139,06[M  ]| have a drop of anything but Catholic blood in$4$ their veins.   
021:139,07[B  ]| ~~ Well, I will$1$ make a beginning in$4$ the family.   
021:139,08[M  ]| ~~ This is the result of being left too much liberty.  You do  
021:139,09[M  ]| as you like$1$ and believe what you like$1$.   
021:139,10[B  ]| ~~ I do not believe, for$4$ example, that$3$ Jesus was the only  
021:139,11[B  ]| man that$6#1$ ever had pure auburn hair.   
021:139,12[M  ]| ~~ Well?   
021:139,13[B  ]| ~~ Nor that$3$ he was the only man that$6#1$ was exactly six feet  
021:139,14[B  ]| high, neither more nor less.   
021:139,15[M  ]| ~~ Well?   
021:139,16[B  ]| ~~ Well, you believe that$6#2$.  I heard you tell that$6#2$ years ago  
021:139,17[B  ]| to$4$ our nurse in$4$ Bray ~~ Do you remember nurse Sarah?   
021:139,18['  ]| Mrs*Daedalus defended the tradition in$4$ a half-hearted  
021:139,19['  ]| way.   
021:139,20[M  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is what they say.   
021:139,21[B  ]| ~~ O, they say!  They say a great deal.   
021:139,22[M  ]| ~~ But you need not believe that$6#2$ if you do not want to$9$.   
021:139,23[B  ]| ~~ Thanks very much.   
021:139,24[M  ]| ~~ All you are asked to$9$ believe in$4$ is the word of God.   
021:139,25[M  ]| Think of the beautiful teachings of Our*Lord.  Think of your  
021:139,26[M  ]| own life when you believed in$4$ those teachings.  Were not you  
021:139,27[M  ]| better and happier then?   
021:139,28[B  ]| ~~ It was good for$4$ me at the time, perhaps, but it is quite  
021:139,29[B  ]| useless for$4$ me now.   
021:139,30[M  ]| ~~ I know what is wrong with you ~~ you suffer from the  
021:139,31[M  ]| pride of the intellect.  You forget that$3$ we are only worms of  
021:139,32[M  ]| the earth.  You think you can defy God because you have  
021:139,33[M  ]| misused the talents he has given you.   
021:139,34[B  ]| ~~ I think Jehovah gets too high a salary for$4$ judging  
021:139,35[B  ]| motives.  I want to$9$ retire him on$4$ the plea of old age.   
021:139,36['  ]| Mrs*Daedalus stood up$5$.   
021:140,01[M  ]| ~~ Stephen, you may use that$6#2$ kind of language with your  
021:140,02[M  ]| companions whoever they are but I will$1$ not allow you to$9$ use  
021:140,03[M  ]| it with me.  Even your father, bad as he is supposed to$9$ be, 
021:140,04[M  ]| does not speak such blasphemy as you do.  I am afraid that$3$  
021:140,05[M  ]| you are a changed boy since you went to$4$ that$6#2$ University.   
021:140,06[M  ]| I suppose you fell in$5$ with some of those students ~~  
021:140,07[B  ]| ~~ Good Lord, mother, 
021:140,07['  ]| said Stephen, 
021:140,07[B  ]| do not believe that$6#2$.   
021:140,08[B  ]| The students are awfully nice fellows.  They love their  
021:140,09[B  ]| religion:  they would not say boo to$4$ a goose.   
021:140,10[M  ]| ~~ Whereever you have learnt it I will$1$ not allow you to$9$ use  
021:140,11[M  ]| such language to$4$ me when you speak of holy things.  Keep  
021:140,12[M  ]| that$6#2$ for$4$ the street-corners at night.   
021:140,13[B  ]| ~~ Very well, mother, 
021:140,13['  ]| said Stephen.  
021:140,13[B  ]| But you began the  
021:140,14[B  ]| conversation.   
021:140,15[M  ]| ~~ I never thought i would see the day when a child of  
021:140,16[M  ]| mine would lose the faith.  God knows I did not.  I did my  
021:140,17[M  ]| best for$4$ you to$9$ keep you in$4$ the right way.   
021:140,18['  ]| Mrs*Daedalus began to$9$ cry.  Stephen, having eaten and  
021:140,19['  ]| drunk all within his province, rose and went towards the  
021:140,20['  ]| door:   
021:140,21[M  ]| ~~ It is all the fault of those books and the company you  
021:140,22[M  ]| keep.  Out at all hours of the night instead of in$4$ your home, 
021:140,23[M  ]| the proper place for$4$ you.  I will$1$ burn every one of them.  I  
021:140,24[M  ]| will$1$ not have them in$4$ the house to$9$ corrupt anyone else.   
021:140,25['  ]| Stephen halted at the door and turned towards his mother  
021:140,26['  ]| who$6#1$ had now broken out into tears:   
021:140,27[B  ]| ~~ If you were a genuine Roman*Catholic, mother, you  
021:140,28[B  ]| would burn me as well as the books.   
021:140,29[M  ]| ~~ I knew no$2$ good would come of your going to$4$ that$6#2$ place.   
021:140,30[M  ]| You are ruining yourself body and soul.  Now your faith is  
021:140,31[M  ]| gone!   
021:140,32[B  ]| ~~ Mother, 
021:140,32['  ]| said Stephen from the threshhold, 
021:140,32[B  ]| I do not see  
021:140,33[B  ]| what you are crying for$4$.  I am young, healthy, happy.  What  
021:140,34[B  ]| is the crying for$4$? ~~ It is too silly ~~  
021:140,35['  ]| Stephen went over to$4$ the Library that$6#2$ evening expressly  
021:140,36['  ]| to$9$ see Cranly and narrate his latest conflict with  
021:141,01['  ]| orthodoxy.  Cranly was standing under the Library porch 
021:141,02['  ]| announcing the results of the examinations beforehand.  He  
021:141,03['  ]| was surrounded, as usual, by$4$ a little group among whom  
021:141,04['  ]| were his friend, the clerk from the Custom*House, and  
021:141,05['  ]| another bosom friend, a very grave-looking elderly student  
021:141,06['  ]| named Lynch.  Lynch was of a very idle disposition and had  
021:141,07['  ]| allowed six or seven years to$9$ intervene between leaving  
021:141,08['  ]| school and beginning a course in$4$ medicine at the College*of*Surgeons.   
021:141,09['  ]| He was much esteemed by$4$ his colleagues because  
021:141,10['  ]| he had a deep bass voice, never ""stood"" any drinks in$4$ return  
021:141,11['  ]| for$4$ those which$6#1$ he accepted from others, and seldom uttered  
021:141,12['  ]| any remarks in$4$ return for$4$ those he listened to$4$.  He always  
021:141,13['  ]| kept both his hands in$4$ his trousers' pockets when he walked  
021:141,14['  ]| and jutted out his chest in$4$ a manner which$6#1$ was intended  
021:141,15['  ]| as a criticism of life.  He spoke, however, to$4$ Cranly principally  
021:141,16['  ]| about women and for$4$ this reason Cranly had nicknamed  
021:141,17['  ]| him Nero.  It was possible to$9$ accuse his mouth of a  
021:141,18['  ]| Neronic tendency but he destroyed the illusion of imperialism  
021:141,19['  ]| by$4$ wearing his cap very far back from a shock forehead.   
021:141,20['  ]| He had unbounded contempt for$4$ medical students and their  
021:141,21['  ]| ways and, if he had not absorbed so$5#1$ much Dublin into his 
021:141,22['  ]| mind, he would have been a lover of the fine arts.  He was, 
021:141,23['  ]| in$4$ fact, very interested in$4$ the art of singing.  He used  
021:141,24['  ]| this interest to$9$ attempt an intimacy with Stephen and, his  
021:141,25['  ]| gravity covering a shame-faced idealism, he had already 
021:141,26['  ]| begun to$9$ feel through Cranly the influence of Stephen's vivifying  
021:141,27['  ]| disorderliness.  His objection, singular enough in$4$ a lax  
021:141,28['  ]| character, to$9$ trite and meaningless execrations, to$4$ the facile  
021:141,29['  ]| iniquities of the lips, had resulted for$4$ him in$4$ two moments  
021:141,30['  ]| of inspiration.  He execrated in$4$ yellow in$4$ protest against  
021:141,31['  ]| the sanguine adjective of uncertain etymology and, to$9$ describe  
021:141,32['  ]| the hymeneal tract, he had one invariable term.  He called  
021:141,33['  ]| it \oracle\ and all within the frontiers he called \oracular\.  The  
021:141,34['  ]| term was considered distinguished in$4$ his circle and he was  
021:141,35['  ]| careful never to$9$ explain the process which$6#1$ had discovered it.   
021:141,36['  ]| Stephen stood on$4$ one of the steps of the porch but Cranly  
021:142,01['  ]| did not honour him with any kind of welcome.  Stephen  
021:142,02['  ]| inserted a few phrases into the conversation but his presence  
021:142,03['  ]| was still unhonoured by$4$ Cranly.  He was not in$4$ the least 
021:142,04['  ]| daunted by$4$ this reception, much as he was puzzled by$4$ it, 
021:142,05['  ]| and waited quietly for$4$ his opportunity.  Once he addressed  
021:142,06['  ]| Cranly directly, but got no$2$ answer.  His mind began to$9$  
021:142,07['  ]| ruminate upon$4$ this and at last his ruminations expressed  
021:142,08['  ]| themselves in$4$ a prolonged smile.  While he was enjoying his  
021:142,09['  ]| smile he saw that$3$ Lynch was observing him.  Lynch came  
021:142,10['  ]| down from the group and said 
021:142,10[U  ]| ""Good evening"".  
021:142,10['  ]| He then took  
021:142,11['  ]| a packet of Woodbine cigarettes from his side pocket and  
021:142,12['  ]| offered one to$4$ Stephen, saying:   
021:142,13[U  ]| ~~ Five a penny.   
021:142,14['  ]| Stephen, who$6#1$ knew that$3$ Lynch was a very poor young  
021:142,15['  ]| man, accepted the cigarette appreciatively.  They smoked in$4$  
021:142,16['  ]| silence for$4$ some minutes and at length the group under the  
021:142,17['  ]| porch fell silent also:   
021:142,18[U  ]| ~~ Have you a copy of your essay?  
021:142,18['  ]| said Lynch.   
021:142,19[B  ]| ~~ Do you want it?   
021:142,20[U  ]| ~~ I would like$1$ to$9$ read it.   
021:142,21[B  ]| ~~ I will$1$ bring it to$4$ you tomorrow night, 
021:142,21['  ]| said Stephen going  
021:142,22['  ]| up$4$ the steps.   
021:142,23['  ]| He went up$5$ to$4$ Cranly who$6#1$ was leaning against a pillar  
021:142,24['  ]| and gazing straight before him and touched him lightly on$4$  
021:142,25['  ]| the shoulder:   
021:142,26[B  ]| ~~ I want to$9$ speak to$4$ you, 
021:142,26['  ]| he said.   
021:142,27['  ]| Cranly turned slowly round and looked at him.  Then he  
021:142,28['  ]| asked:   
021:142,29[R  ]| ~~ Now?   
021:142,30[B  ]| ~~ Yes.   
021:142,31['  ]| They walked together up$5$ along Kildare*St without  
021:142,32['  ]| speaking.  When they came to$4$ the Green Cranly said:   
021:142,33[R  ]| ~~ I am going home on$4$ Saturday.  Will$1$ you come as far as  
021:142,34[R  ]| Harcourt*St*Station?  I want to$9$ see the hour the train goes at.   
021:142,35[B  ]| ~~ All right.   
021:142,36['  ]| In$4$ the station Cranly spent a great deal of time reading  
021:143,01['  ]| the time-tables and making abstruse calculations.  Then he  
021:143,02['  ]| went up$5$ to$4$ the platform and watched for$4$ a long time the  
021:143,03['  ]| shunting of the engine of a goods train on$5$ to$4$ a passenger  
021:143,04['  ]| train.  The engine was steaming and blowing a deafening  
021:143,05['  ]| whistle and rolling billows of thick smoke towards the roof  
021:143,06['  ]| of the station.  Cranly said 
021:143,06[YR ]| that$3$ the engine-driver came from  
021:143,07[YR ]| his part of the country and that$3$ he was the son of a cobbler  
021:143,08[YR ]| in$4$ Tinahely.  
021:143,08['  ]| The engine executed a series of indecisive  
021:143,09['  ]| movements and finally settled itself on$5$ to$4$ the train.  The  
021:143,10['  ]| engine-driver stuck his head out through the side and gazed  
021:143,11['  ]| languidly along the train:   
021:143,12[R  ]| ~~ I suppose you would call him sooty Jaysus, 
021:143,12['  ]| said Cranly.   
021:143,13[B  ]| ~~ Cranly, 
021:143,13['  ]| said Stephen, 
021:143,13[B  ]| I have left the Church.   
021:143,14['  ]| Cranly took his arm at the word and they turned away  
021:143,15['  ]| from the platform and went down the staircase.  As soon as  
021:143,16['  ]| they had emerged into the street he said encouragingly:   
021:143,17[R  ]| ~~ You have left the Church?   
021:143,18['  ]| Stephen went over the interview phrase by$4$ phrase.   
021:143,19[R  ]| ~~ Then you do not believe any longer?   
021:143,20[B  ]| ~~ I cannot believe.   
021:143,21[R  ]| ~~ But you could at one time.   
021:143,22[B  ]| ~~ I cannot now.   
021:143,23[R  ]| ~~ You could now if you wanted to$9$.   
021:143,24[B  ]| ~~ Well, I do not want to$9$.   
021:143,25[R  ]| ~~ Are you sure you do not believe?   
021:143,26[B  ]| ~~ Quite sure.   
021:143,27[R  ]| ~~ Why do you not go to$4$ the altar?   
021:143,28[B  ]| ~~ Because I do not believe.   
021:143,29[R  ]| ~~ Would you make a sacrilegious communion?   
021:143,30[B  ]| ~~ Why should I?   
021:143,31[R  ]| ~~ For$4$ your mother's sake.   
021:143,32[B  ]| ~~ I do not see why I should.   
021:143,33[R  ]| ~~ Your mother will$1$ suffer very much.  You say you do  
021:143,34[R  ]| not believe.  The Host for$4$ you is a piece of ordinary bread.   
021:143,35[R  ]| Would you not eat a piece of ordinary bread to$9$ avoid causing  
021:143,36[R  ]| your mother pain?   
021:144,01[B  ]| ~~ I would in$4$ many cases.   
021:144,02[R  ]| ~~ And why not in$4$ this case?  Have you any reluctance to$9$  
021:144,03[R  ]| commit a sacrilege?  If you do not believe you should not have  
021:144,04[R  ]| any.   
021:144,05[B  ]| ~~ Wait a minute, 
021:144,05['  ]| said Stephen.  
021:144,05[B  ]| At present I have a reluctance  
021:144,06[B  ]| to$9$ commit a sacrilege.  I am a product of Catholicism.   
021:144,07[B  ]| I was sold to$4$ Rome before my birth.  Now I have broken my  
021:144,08[B  ]| slavery but I cannot in$4$ a moment destroy every feeling in$4$ my  
021:144,09[B  ]| nature.  That$6#2$ takes time.  However if it were a case of needs  
021:144,10[B  ]| must ~~ for$4$ my life, for$4$ instance ~~ I would commit any  
021:144,11[B  ]| enormity with the host.   
021:144,12[R  ]| ~~ Many Catholics would do the same, 
021:144,12['  ]| said Cranly, 
021:144,12[R  ]| if their  
021:144,13[R  ]| lives were at stake.   
021:144,14[B  ]| ~~ Believers?   
021:144,15[R  ]| ~~ Ay, believers.  So$3$ by$4$ your own showing you are a  
021:144,16[R  ]| believer.   
021:144,17[B  ]| ~~ It is not from fear that$3$ I refrain from committing a  
021:144,18[B  ]| sacrilege.   
021:144,19[R  ]| ~~ Why then?   
021:144,20[B  ]| ~~ I see no$2$ reason for$4$ committing sacrilege.   
021:144,21[R  ]| ~~ But you have always made your Easter*Duty.  Why do  
021:144,22[R  ]| you change?  The thing for$4$ you is mockery, mummery.   
021:144,23[B  ]| ~~ If I mum it is an act of submission, a public act of  
021:144,24[B  ]| submission to$4$ the Church.  I will$1$ not submit to$4$ the  
021:144,25[B  ]| Church.   
021:144,26[R  ]| ~~ Even so$5#1$ far as to$4$ mum?   
021:144,27[B  ]| ~~ It is mumming with an intention.  The outward show  
021:144,28[B  ]| is nothing but it means a good deal.   
021:144,29[R  ]| ~~ Again you are speaking like$4$ a Catholic.  The host is  
021:144,30[R  ]| nothing in$4$ outward show ~~ a piece of bread.   
021:144,31[B  ]| ~~ I admit:  but all the same I insist on$4$ disobeying the  
021:144,32[B  ]| Church.  I will$1$ not submit any longer.   
021:144,33[R  ]| ~~ But could you not be more diplomatic?  Could you not  
021:144,34[R  ]| rebel in$4$ your heart and yet conform out of contempt?  You  
021:144,35[R  ]| could be a rebel in$4$ spirit.   
021:144,36[B  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ cannot be done for$4$ long by$4$ anyone who$6#1$ is sensitive.   
021:145,01[B  ]| The Church knows the value of her services:  her priest must  
021:145,02[B  ]| hypnotise himself every morning before the tabernacle.  If I 
021:145,03[B  ]| get up$5$ every morning, go to$4$ the looking-glass and say to$4$  
021:145,04[B  ]| myself ""You are the Son of God"" at the end of twelve months  
021:145,05[B  ]| I will$1$ want disciples.   
021:145,06[R  ]| ~~ If you could make your religion pay like$4$ Christianity I  
021:145,07[R  ]| would advise you to$9$ get up$5$ every morning and go to$4$ the  
021:145,08[R  ]| looking-glass.   
021:145,09[B  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ would be good for$4$ my vicars on$4$ earth but I would  
021:145,10[B  ]| find crucifixion a personal inconvenience.   
021:145,11[R  ]| ~~ But here in$4$ Ireland by$4$ following your new religion of  
021:145,12[R  ]| unbelief you may be crucifying yourself like$4$ Jesus ~~ only  
021:145,13[R  ]| socially not physically.   
021:145,14[B  ]| ~~ There is this difference.  Jesus was good-humoured over  
021:145,15[B  ]| it.  I will$1$ die hard.   
021:145,16[R  ]| ~~ How can you propose such a future to$4$ yourself and yet  
021:145,17[R  ]| be afraid to$9$ trust yourself to$9$ perform even the simplest  
021:145,18[R  ]| mumming in$4$ a Church?  said Cranly.   
021:145,19[B  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is my business, 
021:145,19['  ]| said Stephen, tapping at his forehead.   
021:145,20['  ]| 
021:145,21['  ]| When they had come to$4$ the Green they crossed the streets  
021:145,22['  ]| and began to$9$ walk round the enclosure inside the chains.  A  
021:145,23['  ]| few mechanics and their sweethearts were sitting on$4$ the  
021:145,24['  ]| swinging-chains turning the shadows to$4$ account.  The footpath 
021:145,25['  ]| was deserted except for$4$ the metallic image of a distant  
021:145,26['  ]| policeman who$6#1$ had been posted well in$4$ the gaslight as an  
021:145,27['  ]| admonition.  When the two young men passed the college  
021:145,28['  ]| they both looked up$5$ at the same moment towards the dark 
021:145,29['  ]| windows.   
021:145,30[R  ]| ~~ May I ask you why you left the Church?  
021:145,30['  ]| asked Cranly.   
021:145,31[B  ]| ~~ I could not observe the precepts.   
021:145,32[R  ]| ~~ Not even with grace?   
021:145,33[B  ]| ~~ No$7$.   
021:145,34[R  ]| ~~ Jesus gives very simple precepts.  The Church is severe.   
021:145,35[B  ]| ~~ Jesus or the Church ~~ it is all the same to$4$ me.  I can not  
021:145,36[B  ]| follow him.  I must have liberty to$9$ do as I please.   
021:146,01[R  ]| ~~ No$2$ man can do as he pleases.   
021:146,02[B  ]| ~~ Morally.   
021:146,03[R  ]| ~~ No$7$, not morally either.   
021:146,04[B  ]| ~~ You want me, 
021:146,04['  ]| said Stephen, 
021:146,04[B  ]| to$9$ toe the line with those  
021:146,05[B  ]| sycophants and hypocrites in$4$ the college.  I will$1$ never do so$5#2$.   
021:146,06[R  ]| ~~ No$7$.  I mentioned Jesus.   
021:146,07[B  ]| ~~ Do not mention him.  I have made it a common noun.   
021:146,08[B  ]| They do not believe in$4$ him; they do not observe his precepts.   
021:146,09[B  ]| In$4$ any case let us leave Jesus aside.  My sight will$1$ only carry  
021:146,10[B  ]| me as far as his lieutenant in$4$ Rome.  It is quite useless.  I  
021:146,11[B  ]| will$1$ not be frightened into paying tribute in$4$ money or in$4$  
021:146,12[B  ]| thought.   
021:146,13[R  ]| ~~ You told me ~~ do you remember the evening we were  
021:146,14[R  ]| standing at the top of the staircase talking about ~~  
021:146,15[B  ]| ~~ Yes, yes, I remember, 
021:146,15['  ]| said Stephen who$6#1$ hated Cranly's  
021:146,16['  ]| method of remembering the past, 
021:146,16[B  ]| what did I tell you?   
021:146,17[R  ]| ~~ You told me the idea you had of Jesus on$4$ Good*Friday, 
021:146,18[R  ]| an ugly misshapen Jesus.  Did it ever strike you that$3$ Jesus  
021:146,19[R  ]| may have been a conscious impostor?   
021:146,20[B  ]| ~~ I have never believed in$4$ his chastity ~~ that$6#2$ is since I  
021:146,21[B  ]| began to$9$ think about him.  I am sure he was no$2$ eunuch  
021:146,22[B  ]| priest.  His interest in$4$ loose women is too persistently humane.   
021:146,23[B  ]| All the women associated with him are of dubious character.   
021:146,24[R  ]| ~~ You do not think he was God?   
021:146,25[B  ]| ~~ What a question!  Explain it:  explain the hypostatic  
021:146,26[B  ]| union:  tell me if the figure which$6#1$ that$6#2$ policeman worships  
021:146,27[B  ]| as the Holy*Ghost is intended for$4$ a spermatozoon with wings  
021:146,28[B  ]| added.  What a question!  He makes general remarks on$4$ life, 
021:146,29[B  ]| that$6#2$ is all I know:  and I disagree with them.   
021:146,30[R  ]| ~~ For$4$ example?   
021:146,31[B  ]| ~~ For$4$ example ~~ Look here, I cannot talk on$4$ this subject.   
021:146,32[B  ]| I am not a scholar and I receive no$2$ pay as a minister of  
021:146,33[B  ]| God.  I want to$9$ live, do you understand.  McCann wants air  
021:146,34[B  ]| and food:  I want them and a hell of a lot of other things too.   
021:146,35[B  ]| I do not care whether I am right or wrong.  There is always  
021:146,36[B  ]| that$6#2$ risk in$4$ human affairs, I suppose.  But even if I am wrong  
021:147,01[B  ]| at least I shall not have to$9$ endure Father*Butt's company for$4$  
021:147,02[B  ]| eternity.   
021:147,03['  ]| Cranly laughed.   
021:147,04[R  ]| ~~ Remember he would be glorified.   
021:147,05[B  ]| ~~ Heaven for$4$ climate, is not that$6#2$ it, and hell for$4$ society ~~  
021:147,06[B  ]| the whole affair is too damn idiotic.  Give it up$5$.  I am very  
021:147,07[B  ]| young.  When I have a beard to$4$ my middle I will$1$ study  
021:147,08[B  ]| Hebrew and then write to$4$ you about it.   
021:147,09[R  ]| ~~ Why are you so$5#1$ impatient with the Jesuits?  
021:147,09['  ]| asked  
021:147,10['  ]| Cranly.   
021:147,11['  ]| Stephen did not answer and, when they arrived in$4$ the next  
021:147,12['  ]| region of light Cranly exclaimed:   
021:147,13[R  ]| ~~ Your face is red!   
021:147,14[B  ]| ~~ I feel it, 
021:147,14['  ]| said Stephen.   
021:147,15[R  ]| ~~ Most people think you are self-restrained, 
021:147,15['  ]| said Cranly  
021:147,16['  ]| after a pause.   
021:147,17[B  ]| ~~ So$5#2$ I am, 
021:147,17['  ]| said Stephen.   
021:147,18[R  ]| ~~ Not on$4$ this subject.  Why do you get so$5#1$ excited:  I can not  
021:147,19[R  ]| understand that$6#2$.  It is a thing for$4$ you to$9$ think out.   
021:147,20[B  ]| ~~ I can think out things when I like$1$.  I have thought this  
021:147,21[B  ]| affair out very carefully though you may not believe me  
021:147,22[B  ]| when I tell you.  But my escape excites me:  I must talk as I  
021:147,23[B  ]| do.  I feel a flame in$4$ my face.  I feel a wind rush through me.   
021:147,24[Z  ]| ~~ ""Like$4$ a mighty wind rushing"", 
021:147,24['  ]| said Cranly.   
021:147,25[B  ]| ~~ You urge me to$9$ postpone life ~~ till when?  Life is now ~~  
021:147,26[B  ]| this is life:  if I postpone it I may never live.  To$9$ walk nobly  
021:147,27[B  ]| on$4$ the surface of the earth, to$9$ express oneself without pretence, 
021:147,28[B  ]| to$9$ acknowledge one's own humanity!  You must not  
021:147,29[B  ]| think I rhapsodise:  I am quite serious.  I speak from my  
021:147,30[B  ]| soul.   
021:147,31[R  ]| ~~ Soul?   
021:147,32[B  ]| ~~ Yes:  from my soul, my spiritual nature.  Life is not a  
021:147,33[B  ]| yawn.  Philosophy, love, art will$1$ not disappear from my  
021:147,34[B  ]| world because I no$2$ longer believe that$3$ by$4$ entertaining an  
021:147,35[B  ]| emotion of desire for$4$ the tenth part of a second I prepare for$4$ 
021:147,36[B  ]| myself an eternity of torture.  I am happy.   
021:148,01[R  ]| ~~ Can you say that$6#2$?   
021:148,02[B  ]| ~~ Jesus is sad.  Why is he so$5#1$ sad?  He is solitary ~~ I say, 
021:148,03[B  ]| you must feel the truth of what I say.  You are holding up$5$ the  
021:148,04[B  ]| Church against me ~~  
021:148,05[R  ]| ~~ Allow me ~~  
021:148,06[B  ]| ~~ But what is the Church?  It is not Jesus, the magnificent  
021:148,07[B  ]| solitary with his inimitable abstinences.  The Church is made  
021:148,08[B  ]| by$4$ me and my like$0$ ~~ her services, legends, practices, paintings, 
021:148,09[B  ]| music, traditions.  These her artists gave her.  They  
021:148,10[B  ]| made her what she is.  They accepted Aquinas' commentary  
021:148,11[B  ]| on$4$ Aristotle as the Word*of*God and made her what she is.   
021:148,12[R  ]| ~~ And why will$1$ you not help her to$9$ be so$5#1$ still ~~ you as  
021:148,13[R  ]| an artist?   
021:148,14[B  ]| ~~ I see you recognise the truth of what I say though you  
021:148,15[B  ]| will$1$ not admit it.   
021:148,16[R  ]| ~~ The Church allows the individual conscience to$9$ have  
021:148,17[R  ]| great ~~ in$4$ fact, if you believe ~~ believe, that$6#2$ is, 
021:148,17['  ]| said  
021:148,18['  ]| Cranly stamping each heavy foot on$4$ the words, 
021:148,18[R  ]| honestly and  
021:148,19[R  ]| truly ~~  
021:148,20[B  ]| ~~ Enough!  
021:148,20['  ]| said Stephen gripping his companion's arm.   
021:148,21[B  ]| You need not defend me.  I will$1$ take the odds as they are.   
021:148,22['  ]| They paced along three sides of the Green in$4$ silence while  
021:148,23['  ]| the couples began to$9$ leave the chains and return meekly to$4$  
021:148,24['  ]| their modest resting-places and after a while Cranly began  
021:148,25['  ]| to$9$ explain to$4$ Stephen how he too had felt a desire for$4$ life ~~  
021:148,26['  ]| a life of freedom and happiness ~~ when he had been younger  
021:148,27['  ]| and how at that$6#2$ time he too had been about to$9$ leave the  
021:148,28['  ]| Church in$4$ search of happiness but that$3$ many considerations  
021:148,29['  ]| had restrained him.   
022:149,01['  ]| CRANLY went to$4$ Wicklow at the end of the week leaving  
022:149,02['  ]| Stephen to$9$ find another auditor.  Luckily Maurice was  
022:149,03['  ]| enjoying his holidays and though Stephen spent a great deal  
022:149,04['  ]| of his time roaming through the slums of the city while  
022:149,05['  ]| Maurice was out on$4$ the Bull the two brothers often met and  
022:149,06['  ]| discoursed.  Stephen reported his long conversations with  
022:149,07['  ]| Cranly of which$6#1$ Maurice made full notes.  The younger 
022:149,08['  ]| sceptic did not seem to$9$ share his brother's high opinion of 
022:149,09['  ]| Cranly though he said little.  It was not from jealousy but  
022:149,10['  ]| rather from an over-estimate of Cranly's rusticity that$3$  
022:149,11['  ]| Maurice allowed himself this prejudice.  To$9$ be rustic, in$4$ his  
022:149,12['  ]| eyes, was to$9$ be a mass of cunning and stupid and cowardly  
022:149,13['  ]| habits.  He had spoken with Cranly only once but he had  
022:149,14['  ]| often seen him.  He gave it as his opinion that$3$ Cranly never  
022:149,15['  ]| thought until someone spoke to$4$ him and then he  
022:149,16['  ]| gave birth to$4$ some commonplace which$6#1$ he would have  
022:149,17['  ]| liked to$9$ have been able to$9$ disbelieve.  Stephen thought this  
022:149,18['  ]| exaggerated saying that$3$ Cranly was daringly commonplace, 
022:149,19['  ]| that$3$ he could talk like$4$ a pint, and that$3$ it was  
022:149,20['  ]| possible to$9$ credit him with a certain perverse genius.  Cranly's  
022:149,21['  ]| undue scepticism and his heavy feet moved Maurice to$9$  
022:149,22['  ]| hit the rustic in$4$ him with a name.  He called him Thomas*Squaretoes  
022:149,23['  ]| and he would not even admit that$3$ he  
022:149,24['  ]| had to$4$ a certain extent the grand manner.  Cranly, in$4$ his  
022:149,25['  ]| opinion, went to$4$ Wicklow because it was necessary for$4$ him  
022:149,26['  ]| to$9$ play the god to$4$ an audience.  
022:149,26[K  ]| He will$1$ grow to$9$ dislike  
022:149,27[K  ]| you, 
022:149,27['  ]| said the shrewd young heathen, 
022:149,27[K  ]| when you begin to$9$ play 
022:149,28[K  ]| the god to$4$ someone else.  He will$1$ give you nothing in$4$ exchange  
022:149,29[K  ]| for$4$ what you give him whether he has it or not  
022:149,30[K  ]| because his character is naturally overbearing.  He  
022:149,31[K  ]| cannot possibly understand half of what you say to$4$ him and  
022:150,01[K  ]| yet he would like$1$ to$9$ be thought the only one who$6#1$ could  
022:150,02[K  ]| understand you.  He wants to$9$ become more and more  
022:150,03[K  ]| necessary to$4$ you until he can have you in$4$ his power.  Be  
022:150,04[K  ]| careful never to$9$ show any weakness to$4$ him when you are  
022:150,05[K  ]| together.  You can have him in$4$ your power so$5#1$ long as you  
022:150,06[K  ]| hold the whip-hand.  
022:150,06[YB ]| Stephen replied that$3$ he though this 
022:150,07[YB ]| was a very novel conception of friendship which$6#1$ could not  
022:150,08[YB ]| be proved true or false by$4$ debate alone but that$3$ he was  
022:150,09[YB ]| himself the conscious possessor of an intuitive instrument  
022:150,10[YB ]| which$6#1$ might be trusted to$9$ register any enmity as soon as it  
022:150,11[YB ]| appeared.  He defended his friend and his friendship at the  
022:150,12[YB ]| same time.   
022:150,13['  ]| The summer was dull and warm.  Nearly every day  
022:150,14['  ]| Stephen wandered through the slums watching the sordid  
022:150,15['  ]| lives of the inhabitants.  He read all the street-ballads which$6#1$  
022:150,16['  ]| were stuck in$4$ the dusty windows of the Liberties.  He read  
022:150,17['  ]| the racing names and prices scrawled in$4$ blue pencil outside  
022:150,18['  ]| the dingy tobacco-shops, the windows of which$6#1$ were  
022:150,19['  ]| adorned with scarlet police journals.  He examined all the  
022:150,20['  ]| book-stalls which$6#1$ offered old directories and volumes of sermons  
022:150,21['  ]| and unheard-of treatises at the rate of a penny  
022:150,22['  ]| each or three for$4$ twopence.  He often posted himself opposite  
022:150,23['  ]| one of the factories in$4$ old Dublin at two o'clock to$9$ watch the 
022:150,24['  ]| hands coming out to$4$ dinner ~~ principally young boys and  
022:150,25['  ]| girls with colourless expressionless faces, who$6#1$ seized the  
022:150,26['  ]| opportunity to$9$ be gallant in$4$ their way.  He drifted in$5$ and  
022:150,27['  ]| out of interminable chapels in$4$ which$6#1$ an old man dozed on$4$ a  
022:150,28['  ]| bench or a clerk dusted the woodwork or an old woman  
022:150,29['  ]| prayed before the candle she had lighted.  As he walked  
022:150,30['  ]| slowly through the maze of poor streets he stared proudly in$4$  
022:150,31['  ]| return for$4$ the glances of stupid wonder that$6#1$ he received and  
022:150,32['  ]| watched from under his eyes the great cow-like trunks of  
022:150,33['  ]| police constables swing slowly round after him as he passed  
022:150,34['  ]| them.  These wanderings filled him with deep-seated anger 
022:150,35['  ]| and whenever he encountered a burly black-vested priest  
022:150,36['  ]| taking a stroll of pleasant inspection through these warrens  
022:151,01['  ]| full of swarming and cringing believers he cursed the farce  
022:151,02['  ]| of Irish*Catholicism:  an island the inhabitants of  
022:151,03['  ]| which$6#1$ entrust their wills and minds to$4$ others that$3$ they may  
022:151,04['  ]| ensure for$4$ themselves a life of spiritual paralysis, an island in$4$  
022:151,05['  ]| which$6#1$ all the power and riches are in$4$ the keeping of those  
022:151,06['  ]| whose kingdom is not of this world, an island in$4$ which$6#1$  
022:151,07['  ]| Caesar confesses Christ and Christ confesses  
022:151,08['  ]| Caesar that$3$ together they may wax fat upon$4$ a starveling  
022:151,09['  ]| rabblement which$6#1$ is bidden ironically to$9$ take to$4$ itself this 
022:151,10['  ]| consolation in$4$ hardship 
022:151,10[Z  ]| ""The Kingdom of God is within  
022:151,11[Z  ]| you"".   
022:151,12['  ]| This mood of indignation which$6#1$ was not guiltless of a certain  
022:151,13['  ]| superficiality was undoubtedly due to$4$ the excitement of  
022:151,14['  ]| release and it was hardly countenanced by$4$ him before he  
022:151,15['  ]| realised the dangers of being a demagogue.  The attitude  
022:151,16['  ]| which$6#1$ was constitutional with him was a silent self-occupied, 
022:151,17['  ]| contemptuous manner and his intelligence, moreover, persuaded  
022:151,18['  ]| him that$3$ the tomahawk, as an effective instrument  
022:151,19['  ]| of warfare, had become obsolete.  He acknowledged to$4$ himself  
022:151,20['  ]| in$4$ honest egoism that$3$ he could not take to$4$ heart the  
022:151,21['  ]| distress of a nation, the soul of which$6#1$ was antipathetic to$4$ his  
022:151,22['  ]| own, so$5#1$ bitterly as the indignity of a bad line of verse:  but  
022:151,23['  ]| at the same time he was nothing in$4$ the world so$5#1$ little as an 
022:151,24['  ]| amateur artist.  He wished to$9$ express his nature freely and  
022:151,25['  ]| fully for$4$ the benefit of a society which$6#1$ he would enrich and  
022:151,26['  ]| also for$4$ his own benefit, seeing that$3$ it was part of his life to$9$  
022:151,27['  ]| do so$5#2$.  It was not part of his life to$9$ undertake an extensive  
022:151,28['  ]| alteration of society but he felt the need to$9$ express himself  
022:151,29['  ]| such an urgent need, such a real need, that$3$ he was determined  
022:151,30['  ]| no$2$ conventions of a society, however plausibly mingling pity  
022:151,31['  ]| with its tyranny, should be allowed to$9$ stand in$4$ his way, and  
022:151,32['  ]| though a taste for$4$ elegance and detail unfitted him for$4$ the  
022:151,33['  ]| part of demagogue, from his general attitude he might  
022:151,34['  ]| have been supposed not unjustly an ally of the collectivist  
022:151,35['  ]| politicians, who$6#1$ are often very seriously upbraided  
022:151,36['  ]| by$4$ opponents who$6#1$ believe in$4$ Jehovahs, and  
022:152,01['  ]| decalogues and judgments with sacrificing the reality  
022:152,02['  ]| to$4$ an abstraction.   
022:152,03['  ]| That$6#2$ kind of Christianity which$6#1$ is called Catholicism  
022:152,04['  ]| seemed to$4$ him to$9$ stand in$4$ his way and forthwith he removed  
022:152,05['  ]| it.  He had been brought up$5$ in$4$ the belief of the Roman  
022:152,06['  ]| supremacy and to$9$ cease to$9$ be a Catholic for$4$ him meant to$9$  
022:152,07['  ]| cease to$9$ be a Christian.  The idea that$3$ the power of an empire  
022:152,08['  ]| is weakest at its borders requires some modification for$4$ everyone  
022:152,09['  ]| knows that$3$ the Pope cannot govern Italy as he governs  
022:152,10['  ]| Ireland nor is the Tsar as terrible an engine to$4$ the tradesmen 
022:152,11['  ]| of S%*Petersburg as he is to$4$ the little Russian of the Steppes.   
022:152,12['  ]| In$4$ fact in$4$ many cases the government of an empire is  
022:152,13['  ]| strongest at its borders and it is invariably strongest there in$4$  
022:152,14['  ]| the case when its power at the centre is on$4$ the wane.  The  
022:152,15['  ]| waves of the rise and fall of empires do not travel with the  
022:152,16['  ]| rapidity of waves of light and it will$1$ be perhaps a considerable  
022:152,17['  ]| time before Ireland will$1$ be able to$9$ understand that$3$ the  
022:152,18['  ]| Papacy is no$2$ longer going through a period of anabolism.   
022:152,19['  ]| The bands of pilgrims who$6#1$ are shepherded safely across the  
022:152,20['  ]| continent by$4$ their Irish pastors must shame the jaded  
022:152,21['  ]| reactionaries of the eternal city by$4$ their stupefied intensity  
022:152,22['  ]| of worship in$4$ much the same way as the staring provincial  
022:152,23['  ]| newly arrived from Spain or Africa may have piqued the  
022:152,24['  ]| loyalty of some smiling Roman for$4$ whom  
022:152,25['  ]| the future of his race was becoming uncertain as its  
022:152,26['  ]| past had already become obvious.  Though it is evident on$4$  
022:152,27['  ]| the one hand that$3$ this persistence of Catholic power in$4$  
022:152,28['  ]| Ireland must intensify very greatly the loneliness of the Irish*Catholic  
022:152,29['  ]| who$6#1$ voluntarily outlaws himself yet on$4$ the other  
022:152,30['  ]| hand the force which$6#1$ he must generate to$9$ propel himself  
022:152,31['  ]| out of so$5#1$ strong intricate a tyranny may often be sufficient  
022:152,32['  ]| to$9$ place him beyond the region of re-attraction.  It was, 
022:152,33['  ]| in$4$ fact, the very fervour of Stephen's former religious life 
022:152,34['  ]| which$6#1$ sharpened for$4$ him now the pains of his solitary position  
022:152,35['  ]| and at the same time hardened into a less pliable, a less  
022:153,01['  ]| appeasable enmity molten rages and glowing transports on$4$  
022:153,02['  ]| which$6#1$ the emotions of helplessness and loneliness and despair  
022:153,03['  ]| had first acted as chilling influences.   
022:153,04['  ]| The tables in$4$ the Library were deserted during the summer  
022:153,05['  ]| months and whenever Stephen wandered in$4$ there he found  
022:153,06['  ]| few faces that$6#1$ he knew.  Cranly's friend Glynn, 
022:153,07['  ]| the clerk from Guinness', was one of  
022:153,08['  ]| these familiar faces:  he was very busy all the summer reading  
022:153,09['  ]| philosophical handbooks.  Stephen had the misfortune to$9$ be  
022:153,10['  ]| captured one night by$4$ Glynn, who$6#1$ at once  
022:153,11['  ]| attempted a conversation on$4$ the modern school of Irish  
022:153,12['  ]| writers ~~ a subject of which$6#1$ Stephen knew nothing ~~ and  
022:153,13['  ]| he had to$9$ listen to$4$ an inconstant stream of literary opinions.  
022:153,14['  ]| These opinions were not very interesting:  Stephen, for$4$  
022:153,15['  ]| instance, grew rather weary of Glynn's  
022:153,16['  ]| telling him what beautiful poetry Byron and Shelley and  
022:153,17['  ]| Wordsworth and Coleridge and Keats and Tennyson wrote, 
022:153,18['  ]| and of hearing that$3$ Ruskin and Newman and Carlyle and  
022:153,19['  ]| Macaulay were the greatest modern English prose stylist.   
022:153,20['  ]| At last when Glynn was about to$9$ begin an account  
022:153,21['  ]| of a literary paper which$6#1$ his sister had read to$4$ the Girls'*Debating*Society  
022:153,22['  ]| in$4$ Loreto*Convent Stephen thought he  
022:153,23['  ]| was justified in$4$ putting a closure on$4$ the conversation, 
022:153,24['  ]| somewhat in$4$ Cranly's manner, by$4$ asking Glynn  
022:153,25['  ]| very pointedly could he manage to$9$ get him a ""pass"" to$9$ see  
022:153,26['  ]| the Brewery.  The request was made in$4$ such a tone of subdued  
022:153,27['  ]| thirsty curiosity that$3$ Glynn was too discouraged  
022:153,28['  ]| to$9$ continue his literary criticism and promised to$9$  
022:153,29['  ]| do his best to$9$ get the ""pass"".  Another reader in$4$ the Library  
022:153,30['  ]| who$6#1$ seemed to$9$ wish to$9$ be very friendly with Stephen was  
022:153,31['  ]| a young studen named Moynihan who$6#1$ had been elected  
022:153,32['  ]| Auditor of the Literary*and*Historical*Society for$4$ the following  
022:153,33['  ]| year.  He had to$9$ read his inaugural address in$4$ November  
022:153,34['  ]| and he had chosen as his subject ""Modern*Unbelief*and*Modern*Democracy"".   
022:153,35['  ]| He was an extremely ugly  
022:153,36['  ]| young man with a wide mouth which$6#1$ gave the idea that$3$ it  
022:154,01['  ]| was under his chin until the face was seen at close quarters, 
022:154,02['  ]| eyes of an over-washed olive green colour set viciously close  
022:154,03['  ]| together, and large rigid ears standing far apart.  He took  
022:154,04['  ]| a most agitated interest in$4$ the success of his paper as he was  
022:154,05['  ]| going to$9$ be a solicitor and he relied on$4$ this inaugural address  
022:154,06['  ]| to$9$ make his name know.  He had not yet developed the  
022:154,07['  ]| astuteness of the legal mind in$4$ as much as he imagined that$3$  
022:154,08['  ]| Stephen shared his agitated interest concerning the inaugural  
022:154,09['  ]| address.  Stephen came upon$4$ him one night while he was 
022:154,10['  ]| busily ""making-up"" his subject.  He had some bulky volumes  
022:154,11['  ]| by$4$ Lecky at his side and he was reading and making notes  
022:154,12['  ]| upon$4$ an article in$4$ the \Encyclopaedia*Britannica\ under the  
022:154,13['  ]| heading of ""Socialism"".  He desisted from his labours when  
022:154,14['  ]| he saw Stephen and began to$9$ explain the preparations which$6#1$  
022:154,15['  ]| the committee were making.  He showed the letters which$6#1$  
022:154,16['  ]| had been received from various public men who$6#1$ had been written  
022:154,17['  ]| to$5$ by$4$ the committee to$9$ know if they would speak.   
022:154,18['  ]| He showed the patterns of the cards of invitation which$6#1$ they  
022:154,19['  ]| had decided to$9$ have printed and he showed a copy of the  
022:154,20['  ]| notice which$6#1$ was to$9$ be sent to$4$ all the papers.  Stephen who$6#1$  
022:154,21['  ]| did not know Moynihan very well was surprised at all these  
022:154,22['  ]| confidences.  Moynihan said 
022:154,22[YV ]| he was sure Stephen would be  
022:154,23[YV ]| the auditor who$6#1$ would be elected after him and added how  
022:154,24[YV ]| much he had admired the style of Stephen's paper.  
022:154,24['  ]| After 
022:154,25['  ]| this he bagan to$9$ discuss his own and Stephen's prospects for$4$  
022:154,26['  ]| the degree.  He said German was more useful than Italian  
022:154,27['  ]| (though, of course, Italian was more beautiful as a language)  
022:154,28['  ]| and that$3$ he had always studied it for$4$ that$6#2$ reason.  When  
022:154,29['  ]| Stephen rose to$9$ go Moynihan said 
022:154,29[YV ]| he might as well go too  
022:154,30[YV ]| and put up$5$ his books.  
022:154,30['  ]| He came along Nassau*St to$9$ catch  
022:154,31['  ]| his tram for$4$ Palmerston*Park and on$4$ the way, the night being  
022:154,32['  ]| wet and the streets black and glistening with rain, he united  
022:154,33['  ]| himself still more intimately with his successor-designate by$4$  
022:154,34['  ]| little ejaculations and glances in$4$ the wake of a hospital nurse  
022:154,35['  ]| who$6#1$ wore brown stockings and pink petticoats.  Stephen was  
022:154,36['  ]| not at all displeased by$4$ the spectacle which$6#1$ he had been  
022:155,01['  ]| quietly observing for$4$ a long time before Moynihan had  
022:155,02['  ]| caught sight of it but Moynihan's desirous  
022:155,03['  ]| ejaculations reminded him of the clicking of a  
022:155,04['  ]| type-writing machine.  Moynihan who$6#1$ by$4$ this time was on$4$  
022:155,05['  ]| famous terms with him said 
022:155,05[YV ]| he would like$1$ to$9$ know Italian  
022:155,06[YV ]| on$4$ account of Boccaccio and the other Italian writers.  
022:155,06['  ]| He  
022:155,07['  ]| told Stephen that$3$ 
022:155,07[YV ]| if he wanted to$9$ read something ""smutty""  
022:155,08[YV ]| the \Decameron\ took the biscuit for$4$ ""smut"".   
022:155,09[V  ]| ~~ I wish I was like$4$ you, 
022:155,09['  ]| he said, 
022:155,09[V  ]| it must be ten times as bad  
022:155,10[V  ]| in$4$ the original.  I can not tell you now because here is my tram  
022:155,11[V  ]| ~~ but it takes the biscuit for$4$ downright ~~ you know?  ~~  
022:155,12[V  ]| well, Tooraloo!   
022:155,13['  ]| Mr*Daedalus had not an acute sense of the rights of  
022:155,14['  ]| private property:  he paid rent very rarely.  To$9$ demand  
022:155,15['  ]| money for$4$ eatables seemed to$4$ him just but to$9$ expect people  
022:155,16['  ]| to$9$ pay for$4$ shelter the exorbitant sums which$6#1$ are demanded  
022:155,17['  ]| annually by$4$ houseowners in$4$ Dublin seemed to$4$ him unjust.   
022:155,18['  ]| He had now been a year in$4$ his house in$4$ Clontarf and for$4$  
022:155,19['  ]| that$6#2$ year he had paid a quarter's rent.  The writ which$6#1$ had  
022:155,20['  ]| been first served on$4$ him had contained a legal flaw and  
022:155,21['  ]| this fact enabled him to$9$ prolong his term of occupancy.   
022:155,22['  ]| Just now matters were drawing to$4$ a head and he was scouring  
022:155,23['  ]| the city for$4$ another house.  A private message from a  
022:155,24['  ]| friend in$4$ the Sheriff's office gave him exactly five days of  
022:155,25['  ]| grace and every morning he brushed his silk hat very diligently  
022:155,26['  ]| and polished his eyeglass and went forth humming  
022:155,27['  ]| derisively to$9$ offer himself as a bait to$4$ landlords.  The halldoor  
022:155,28['  ]| was often banged loudly on$4$ these occasions as the only  
022:155,29['  ]| possible close of an altercation.  The results of the examination  
022:155,30['  ]| had awarded Stephen a mere pass and his father told  
022:155,31['  ]| him very confidentially that$3$ he had better look out for$4$ some  
022:155,32['  ]| kind of a doss because in$4$ a week's time they would all be  
022:155,33['  ]| out on$4$ the street.  The funds in$4$ the house were very low for$3$  
022:155,34['  ]| the new furniture had fetched very little after its transport  
022:155,35['  ]| piecemeal to$4$ a pawn-office.  Tradesman who$6#1$ had seen it  
022:155,36['  ]| depart had begun a game of knocking and ringing which$6#1$  
022:156,01['  ]| was very often followed by$4$ the curious eyes of street-urchins.   
022:156,02['  ]| Isabel was lying upstairs in$4$ the backroom, day by$4$ day growing  
022:156,03['  ]| more wasted and querulous.  The doctor came twice a  
022:156,04['  ]| week now and ordered her delicacies.  Mrs*Daedalus had  
022:156,05['  ]| to$9$ set her wits to$9$ work to$9$ provide even one substantial meal  
022:156,06['  ]| every day and she certainly had no$2$ time to$9$ spare between  
022:156,07['  ]| accomplishing this feat, appeasing the clamour at the halldoor, 
022:156,08['  ]| parrying her husband's ill-humour and attending on$4$  
022:156,09['  ]| her dying daughter.  As for$4$ her sons, one was a freethinker  
022:156,10['  ]| the other surly.  Maurice ate dry bread, muttered maledictions  
022:156,11['  ]| against his father and his father's creditors, practised  
022:156,12['  ]| pushing a heavy flat stone in$4$ the garden and raising and  
022:156,13['  ]| lowering a broken dumb-bell, and trudged to$4$ the Bull every  
022:156,14['  ]| day that$6#1$ the tide served.  In$4$ the evening he wrote his diary  
022:156,15['  ]| or went out for$4$ a walk by$4$ himself.  Stephen wandered about  
022:156,16['  ]| morning, noon and night.  The two brothers were not often  
022:156,17['  ]| together.  One dusky summer evening  
022:156,18['  ]| they walked into each other very gravely at a corner and  
022:156,19['  ]| both burst out laughing:  and after that$6#2$ they sometimes went  
022:156,20['  ]| for$4$ walks together in$4$ the evening and discussed the art of  
022:156,21['  ]| literature.   
022:156,22['  ]| Stephen had lent his essay to$4$ Lynch as he had promised  
022:156,23['  ]| to$9$ do and this loan had led to$4$ a certain intimacy.  Lynch had  
022:156,24['  ]| almost taken the final vows in$4$ the order of the discontented  
022:156,25['  ]| but Stephen's unapologetic egoism, his remorseless lack of  
022:156,26['  ]| sentiment for$4$ himself no$2$ less than for$4$ others, gave him pause.   
022:156,27['  ]| His taste for$4$ fine arts which$6#1$ had always seemed to$4$ him a  
022:156,28['  ]| taste which$6#1$ should be carefully hidden away, now began to$9$  
022:156,29['  ]| encourage itself timidly.  He was also very much relieved to$9$  
022:156,30['  ]| find Stephen's estheticism united with a sane and conscienceless  
022:156,31['  ]| acceptance of the animal needs of young men for$3$, 
022:156,32['  ]| being shrewd animal himself, he had begun to$9$ suspect  
022:156,33['  ]| from Stephen's zeal and loftiness of discourse at least an  
022:156,34['  ]| assertion of that$6#2$ incorrigible virginity which$6#1$ the Irish race  
022:156,35['  ]| demands alike from any John who$6#1$ would baptise it or from  
022:156,36['  ]| any Joan who$6#1$ would set it free as the first heavenly proof  
022:157,01['  ]| of fitness for$4$ such high offices.  Daniel's household had become  
022:157,02['  ]| so$5#1$ wearisome to$4$ Stephen that$3$ he had discontinued his Sunday  
022:157,03['  ]| visits there and had substituted rambles with Lynch through  
022:157,04['  ]| the city.  They made their way with difficulty along the 
022:157,05['  ]| crowded streets where underpaid young men and flaunting  
022:157,06['  ]| girls were promenading in$4$ bands.  After a few of these  
022:157,07['  ]| rambles Lynch had absorbed the new terms which$6#1$ expressed  
022:157,08['  ]| the new point of view and he began to$9$ feel that$3$ he was justifying  
022:157,09['  ]| the contempt to$4$ which$6#1$ the spectacle of Dublin manners  
022:157,10['  ]| had always moved him.  Many times they stopped to$9$ confer  
022:157,11['  ]| in$4$ scrupulous slang with the foolish virgins of the city whose  
022:157,12['  ]| souls were almost terrified out of their naughty intentions  
022:157,13['  ]| by$4$ the profundity of the tones of the elder of the young men, 
022:157,14['  ]| and Lynch, sunning himself in$4$ a companionship which$6#1$ was 
022:157,15['  ]| so$5#1$ alert and liberal, so$5#1$ free from a taint of secret competition  
022:157,16['  ]| or patronage, began to$9$ wonder how he could ever have  
022:157,17['  ]| thought Stephen an affected young man.  Everyone, he  
022:157,18['  ]| thought now, who$6#1$ has a character to$9$ preserve must have a  
022:157,19['  ]| manner to$9$ preserve it with.   
022:157,20['  ]| One evening as Stephen was coming down the Library  
022:157,21['  ]| staircase after idling away a half-hour at  
022:157,22['  ]| a medical treatise on$4$ singing, he heard a dress brushing  
022:157,23['  ]| the steps behind him.  The dress belonged to$4$ Emma*Clery  
022:157,24['  ]| who$6#1$, of course, was very much surprised at seeing Stephen.   
022:157,25['  ]| She had just been working at some old Irish and now she was  
022:157,26['  ]| going home:  her father did not like$1$ her to$9$ stay in$4$ the Library  
022:157,27['  ]| until ten o'clock as she had no$2$ escort.  The night was so$5#1$ fine  
022:157,28['  ]| that$3$ she thought she would not take the tram.  Stephen asked her  
022:157,29['  ]| might he not see her home.  They stood under the porch  
022:157,30['  ]| for$4$ a few minutes, talking.  Stephen took out a cigarette and  
022:157,31['  ]| lit it but at once knocked off the lighted end meditatively  
022:157,32['  ]| and put the cigarette back into his case:  her eyes  
022:157,33['  ]| were very bright.   
022:157,34['  ]| They went up$4$ Kildare*St and when they came to$4$ the  
022:157,35['  ]| corner of the Green she crossed the road and they continued  
022:157,36['  ]| to$9$ walk, but not quite so$5#1$ quickly, along the gravel path  
022:158,01['  ]| beside the chains.  The chains bore their nightly burden  
022:158,02['  ]| of amorousness.  He offered her his arm which$6#1$ she took, 
022:158,03['  ]| leaning appreciably upon$4$ it.  They talked gossip.  She discussed  
022:158,04['  ]| the likelihood of McCann's marrying the eldest of  
022:158,05['  ]| Mr*Daniel's daughters.  She seemed to$9$ think it very amusing  
022:158,06['  ]| that$3$ McCann should have a desire for$4$ matrimony but she  
022:158,07['  ]| added quite seriously that$3$ Annie Daniel was certainly a nice  
022:158,08['  ]| girl.  A feminine voice called out from the dusky region of  
022:158,09['  ]| the couples 
022:158,09[X  ]| ""Do not!"" 
022:158,10[D  ]| ~~ ""Do not"", 
022:158,10['  ]| said Emma.  
022:158,10[D  ]| Is not that$6#2$ Mr*Punch's advice to$4$  
022:158,11[D  ]| young men who$6#1$ are about to$9$ marry ~~ I hear you are quite  
022:158,12[D  ]| a woman-hater now, Stephen.   
022:158,13[B  ]| ~~ Would not that$6#2$ be a change?   
022:158,14[D  ]| ~~ And I heard you read a dreadful paper in$4$ the college ~~  
022:158,15[D  ]| all kinds of ideas in$4$ it.  Is not that$6#2$ so$5#2$?   
022:158,16[B  ]| ~~ Please do not mention that$6#2$ paper.   
022:158,17[D  ]| ~~ But I am sure you are a woman-hater.  You have got so$5#1$  
022:158,18[D  ]| stand-offish, you know, so$5#1$ reserved.  Perhaps you do not like$1$  
022:158,19[D  ]| ladies' company?   
022:158,20['  ]| Stephen pressed her arm a little by$4$ way of a disclaimer.   
022:158,21[D  ]| ~~ Are you a believer in$4$ the emancipation of women too?   
022:158,22['  ]| she asked.   
022:158,23[B  ]| ~~ To$9$ be sure!  
022:158,23['  ]| said Stephen.   
022:158,24[D  ]| ~~ Well, I am glad to$9$ hear you say that$6#2$, at any rate.  I  
022:158,25[D  ]| did not think you were in$4$ favour of women.   
022:158,26[B  ]| ~~ O, I am very liberal ~~ like$4$ Father*Dillon ~~ he is very  
022:158,27[B  ]| liberal-minded.   
022:158,28[D  ]| ~~ Yes?  Is not he?  
022:158,28['  ]| she said in$4$ a puzzled manner ~~ 
022:158,28[D  ]| Why do  
022:158,29[D  ]| you never go to$4$ Daniel's now?   
022:158,30[B  ]| ~~ I ~~ do not know.   
022:158,31[D  ]| ~~ What do you do with yourself on$4$ Sunday evenings?   
022:158,32[B  ]| ~~ I ~~ stay at home, 
022:158,32['  ]| said Stephen.   
022:158,33[D  ]| ~~ You must be morose when you are at home.   
022:158,34[B  ]| ~~ Not I.  I am as happy as if the divil had me.   
022:158,35[D  ]| ~~ I want to$9$ hear you sing again.   
022:158,36[B  ]| ~~ O, thanks ~~ Some time, perhaps ~~  
022:159,01[D  ]| ~~ Why do not you study music?  Have your voice trained?   
022:159,02[B  ]| ~~ Strange to$9$ say I was reading a book on$4$ singing tonight.   
022:159,03[B  ]| It is called ~~  
022:159,04[D  ]| ~~ I am sure you would make a success with your voice, 
022:159,04['  ]| she  
022:159,05['  ]| said quickly, evidently afraid to$9$ allow him control of the  
022:159,06['  ]| conversation ~~ 
022:159,06[D  ]| Have you ever heard Father*Moran sing?   
022:159,07[B  ]| ~~ No$7$.  Has he a good voice?   
022:159,08[D  ]| ~~ O, very nice:  he sings with such taste.  He is an awfully  
022:159,09[D  ]| nice man, do not you think?   
022:159,10[B  ]| ~~ Very nice indeed.  Do you go to$4$ confession to$4$ him?   
022:159,11['  ]| She leaned a little more appreciably on$4$ his arm and said:   
022:159,12[D  ]| ~~ Now, do not be bold, Stephen.   
022:159,13[B  ]| ~~ I wish you would go to$4$ confession to$4$ me, Emma, 
022:159,13['  ]| said  
022:159,14['  ]| Stephen from his heart.   
022:159,15[D  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is a dreadful thing to$9$ say ~~ Why would you like$1$  
022:159,16[D  ]| that$6#2$?   
022:159,17[B  ]| ~~ To$9$ hear your sins.   
022:159,18[D  ]| ~~ Stephen!   
022:159,19[B  ]| ~~ To$9$ hear you murmur them into my ear and say you  
022:159,20[B  ]| were sorry and would never commit them again and  
022:159,21[B  ]| ask me to$9$ forgive you.  And I would forgive you and make 
022:159,22[B  ]| you promise to$9$ commit them every time you liked and say  
022:159,23[B  ]| ""God bless you, my dear child."" 
022:159,24[D  ]| ~~ O, for$4$ shame, Stephen!  Such a way to$9$ talk of the  
022:159,25[D  ]| sacraments!   
022:159,26['  ]| Stephen had expected that$3$ she would blush but her cheek  
022:159,27['  ]| maintained its innocence and her eyes grew brighter and  
022:159,28['  ]| brighter.   
022:159,29[D  ]| ~~ You would get tired of that$6#2$ too.   
022:159,30[B  ]| ~~ Do you think so$5#2$?  
022:159,30['  ]| said Stephen making an effort not to$9$  
022:159,31['  ]| be surprised at such an intelligent remark.   
022:159,32[D  ]| ~~ You would be a dreadful flirt, I am sure.  You get tired of  
022:159,33[D  ]| everything so$5#1$ quickly ~~ just the way you did in$4$ the Gaelic*League.   
022:159,34[D  ]| 
022:159,35[B  ]| ~~ People should not think of the end in$4$ the beginning of  
022:159,36[B  ]| flirtations, should they?   
022:160,01[D  ]| ~~ Perhaps not.   
022:160,02['  ]| When they came to$4$ the corner of her terrace she stopped  
022:160,03['  ]| and said:   
022:160,04[D  ]| ~~ Thanks ever so$5#2$ much.   
022:160,05[B  ]| ~~ Thank \you\.   
022:160,06[D  ]| ~~ Well, you must reform, will$1$ not you, and come next  
022:160,07[D  ]| Sunday to$4$ Daniel's.   
022:160,08[B  ]| ~~ If you expressly ~~  
022:160,09[D  ]| ~~ Yes, I insist.   
022:160,10[B  ]| ~~ Very good, Emma.  In$4$ that$6#2$ case, I will$1$ go.   
022:160,11[D  ]| ~~ Mind.  I expect you to$9$ obey me.   
022:160,12[B  ]| ~~ Very good.   
022:160,13[D  ]| ~~ Thanks again for$4$ your kindness coming across with me.  
022:160,14[D  ]| \9Au 9revoir!\ 
022:160,15[B  ]| ~~ Good night.   
022:160,16['  ]| He waited till he had seen her enter the fourth garden of  
022:160,17['  ]| the terrace.  She did not turn her head to$9$ see if he was  
022:160,18['  ]| watching but he was not cast down because he knew she  
022:160,19['  ]| had a trick of seeing things without using her eyes frankly.   
022:160,20['  ]| Of course when Lynch heard of this incident he rubbed  
022:160,21['  ]| his hands together and prophesied.  By$4$ his advice Stephen  
022:160,22['  ]| went to$4$ Daniel's on$4$ the following Sunday.  The old horsehair  
022:160,23['  ]| sofa was there, the picture of the Sacred*Heart was there, she  
022:160,24['  ]| was there.  The prodigal was welcomed.  She spoke to$4$ him  
022:160,25['  ]| very little during the evening and seemed to$9$ be in$4$ deep  
022:160,26['  ]| conversation with Hughes, who$6#1$ had lately been honoured 
022:160,27['  ]| by$4$ an invitation.  She was dressed in$4$ cream colour and the  
022:160,28['  ]| great mass of her hair lay heavily upon$4$ her cream-coloured  
022:160,29['  ]| neck.  She asked him to$9$ sing and when he had sung a song  
022:160,30['  ]| of Dowland's she asked him would he not sing them an Irish  
022:160,31['  ]| song.  Stephen glanced from her eyes to$4$ Hughes's face and  
022:160,32['  ]| sat down again at the piano.  He sang her one of the few  
022:160,33['  ]| Irish melodies which$6#1$ he knew, 
022:160,33[Z  ]| ""My*love*was*born*in*the*North Countree"".   
022:161,01['  ]| When his song was over she applauded  
022:161,02['  ]| loudly and so$5#2$ did Hughes.   
022:161,03[D  ]| ~~ I love the Irish music, 
022:161,03['  ]| she said a few minutes afterwards, 
022:161,04['  ]| inclining herself towards him with an air of oblivion, 
022:161,04[D  ]| it is so$5#1$  
022:161,05[D  ]| soul-stirring.   
022:161,06['  ]| Stephen said nothing.  He remembered almost every  
022:161,07['  ]| word she had said from the first time he had met her and he  
022:161,08['  ]| strove to$9$ recall any word which$6#1$ revealed the presence of a  
022:161,09['  ]| spiritual principle in$4$ her worthy of so$5#1$ significant a name as 
022:161,10['  ]| soul.  He submitted himself to$4$ the perfumes of her body and  
022:161,11['  ]| strove to$9$ locate a spiritual principle in$4$ it:  but he could not.   
022:161,12['  ]| She seemed to$9$ conform to$4$ the Catholic belief, to$9$ obey the  
022:161,13['  ]| commandments and the precepts.  By$4$ all outward signs he  
022:161,14['  ]| was compelled to$9$ esteem her holy.  But he could not so$5#1$  
022:161,15['  ]| stultify himself as to$9$ misread the gleam in$4$ her eyes as holy  
022:161,16['  ]| or to$9$ interpret the rise and fall of her bosom as a  
022:161,17['  ]| movement of sacred intention.  He thought of his own  
022:161,18['  ]| spendthrift religiousness and airs of  
022:161,19['  ]| the cloister, he remembered having astonished a labourer  
022:161,20['  ]| in$4$ a wood near Malahide by$4$ an ectasy of oriental posture  
022:161,21['  ]| and no$2$ more than half-conscious under the influence of her  
022:161,22['  ]| charm he wondered whether the God of the Roman*Catholics  
022:161,23['  ]| would put him into hell because he had failed to$9$ understand  
022:161,24['  ]| that$6#2$ most marketable goodness which$6#1$ makes it possible  
022:161,25['  ]| to$9$ give comfortable assent to$4$ propositions without in$4$ the least  
022:161,26['  ]| ordering one's life in$4$ accordance with them and had failed  
022:161,27['  ]| to$9$ appreciate the digestive value of the sacraments.   
022:161,28['  ]| Among the guests was an elder brother of Mrs*Daniel's, 
022:161,29['  ]| Father*Healy.  He had just come back from the United*States*of*America  
022:161,30['  ]| where he had been for$4$ seven years collecting  
022:161,31['  ]| money to$9$ build a chapel near Enniscorthy.  He was being  
022:161,32['  ]| fe^ted on$4$ his home-coming.  He sat in$4$ the armchair  
022:161,33['  ]| which$6#1$ Mr*Daniel insisted on$4$ giving him and joined the  
022:161,34['  ]| tips of his fingers lightly together and smiled on$4$ the company.   
022:161,35['  ]| He was a little fat white priest whose body reminded one  
022:161,36['  ]| of a new tennis-ball and as he sat in$4$ his chair with one leg  
022:162,01['  ]| thrown smartly over the other he kept agitating quickly a  
022:162,02['  ]| fat little foot which$6#1$ was encased in$4$ a fat little creaky leather  
022:162,03['  ]| shoe.  He spoke with a judicious American accent and  
022:162,04['  ]| when he spoke the room was all ears.  He was greatly interested  
022:162,05['  ]| in$4$ the new Gaelic revival and in$4$ the new literary  
022:162,06['  ]| movement in$4$ Ireland.  He paid particular attention to$4$  
022:162,07['  ]| McCann and to$4$ Stephen, asking both of them many questions.   
022:162,08['  ]| He agreed with McCann that$3$ Gladstone was the  
022:162,09['  ]| greatest man of the nineteenth century and then Mr*Daniel, 
022:162,10['  ]| who$6#1$ was glowing with pride at the honour he was paying  
022:162,11['  ]| so$5#1$ honourable a guest, told a dignified story of Gladstone  
022:162,12['  ]| and Sir*Ashmead*Bartlett and deepened his voice to$9$ reproduce  
022:162,13['  ]| the oratory of the grand old man.  During the charades  
022:162,14['  ]| Father*Healy kept asking Mr*Daniel to$9$ repeat to$4$ him  
022:162,15['  ]| the witticims of the players and very often he shook laughing  
022:162,16['  ]| when Mr*Daniel had told him what a player had said.  He  
022:162,17['  ]| let no$2$ opportunity for$4$ increasing his knowledge of the interior  
022:162,18['  ]| life of the University escape him and every allusion was  
022:162,19['  ]| beaten out into an unmistakable flatness before he nodded  
022:162,20['  ]| a head in$4$ satisfaction.  Attacking Stephen on$4$ the literary 
022:162,21['  ]| side he began a monologue on$4$ the writings of John*Boyle*O'Reilly  
022:162,22['  ]| but finding Stephen too polite he began to$9$ depreciate an  
022:162,23['  ]| exclusively literary training for$4$ young men.  Stephen  
022:162,24['  ]| thereupon began to$9$ tell him of the alley in$4$ the college and 
022:162,25['  ]| of the hand-ball tournament and all with discreet earnestness.   
022:162,26[V  ]| ~~ I am sure now, 
022:162,26['  ]| said Father*Healy putting his head  
022:162,27['  ]| shrewdly on$4$ one side and looking genially at the youth, 
022:162,27[V  ]| I am  
022:162,28[V  ]| sure you would make a good player.  You are just the build.   
022:162,29[B  ]| ~~ O, no$7$, 
022:162,29['  ]| said Stephen longing for$4$ Cranly's presence, 
022:162,30[B  ]| I am a poor player.   
022:162,31[V  ]| ~~ So$5#2$ you say, 
022:162,31['  ]| said Father*Healy laughing, 
022:162,31[V  ]| so$5#2$ you say.   
022:162,32[B  ]| ~~ Really, 
022:162,32['  ]| said Stephen, smiling at this clever detection of  
022:162,33['  ]| his merits as a handball-player and at the recollection  
022:162,34['  ]| of Cranly's execrations at his play.   
022:162,35['  ]| At last Father*Healy began to$9$ yawn a little and this was  
022:162,36['  ]| taken as a signal for$4$ handing round cups of milk and slices  
022:163,01['  ]| of bread and butter to$4$ the young men and women, none of  
022:163,02['  ]| whom took anything stronger.  Hughes, indeed, was so$5#1$  
022:163,03['  ]| frugal that$3$ he declined to$9$ eat or drink anything at all  
022:163,04['  ]| whereat Stephen was somewhat disappointed as he could  
022:163,05['  ]| have had a good view of the idealist.  McCann who$6#1$ represented  
022:163,06['  ]| the practical view of life ate rather noisily and asked  
022:163,07['  ]| for$4$ jam.  This remark made Father*Healy, who$6#1$ had never  
022:163,08['  ]| heard it before, laugh very heartily and made the others  
022:163,09['  ]| smile but Hughes and Stephen looked at each other very  
022:163,10['  ]| gravely across the uninhabited tablecloth.  The young  
022:163,11['  ]| women were all sitting at one end of the table and the  
022:163,12['  ]| young men at the other end with the result that$3$ one end of  
022:163,13['  ]| the table was very lively and the other end very serious.   
022:163,14['  ]| Stephen after having failed to$9$ engage in$4$ conversation a  
022:163,15['  ]| maiden aunt of the family who$6#1$ had fulfilled her office by$4$  
022:163,16['  ]| bringing in$4$ two tumblers of punch, one for$4$ Father*Healy  
022:163,17['  ]| and the other for$4$ Mr*Daniel, retired silently to$4$ the piano 
022:163,18['  ]| where he began to$9$ strum old airs and hum them to$4$ himself  
022:163,19['  ]| until someone at the table said 
022:163,19[X  ]| ""Do sing us something"" 
022:163,19['  ]| and  
022:163,20['  ]| then he left the piano and returned to$4$ the horsehair sofa.   
022:163,21['  ]| Her eyes were very bright.  Stephen's way through self-examinations  
022:163,22['  ]| had worn him out so$5#1$ much that$3$ he could not  
022:163,23['  ]| but long to$9$ repose himself in$4$ the neighbourhood of her beauty.   
022:163,24['  ]| He remembered the first mood of monstrous dissatisfaction  
022:163,25['  ]| which$6#1$ had overcome him on$4$ his entrance into Dublin life  
022:163,26['  ]| and how it was her beauty that$6#1$ had appeased him.  Now  
022:163,27['  ]| she seemed to$9$ offer him rest.  He wondered did she understand  
022:163,28['  ]| him or sympathise with him and was the vulgarity  
022:163,29['  ]| of her manners only a condescension of one who$6#1$ was consciously  
022:163,30['  ]| playing the game.  He knew that$3$ it was not for$4$ such  
022:163,31['  ]| an image that$3$ he had constructed a theory of art and life  
022:163,32['  ]| and a garland of verse and yet if he could have been sure of  
022:163,33['  ]| her he would have held his art and verses lightly enough.   
022:163,34['  ]| The longing for$4$ a mad night of love came upon$4$ him, a  
022:163,35['  ]| desperate willingness to$9$ cast his soul away, his life and his  
022:163,36['  ]| art, and to$9$ bury them all with her under fathoms of lust-laden 
022:164,01['  ]| slumber.  The ugly artificiality of the lives over  
022:164,02['  ]| which$6#1$ Father*Healy was comfortably presiding struck this  
022:164,03['  ]| outrageous instant out of him and he went on$5$ repeating to$4$  
022:164,04['  ]| himself a line from Dante for$4$ no$2$ other reason except that$3$ it  
022:164,05['  ]| contained the angry disyllable ""frode"".  Surely, he thought, 
022:164,06['  ]| I have as much right to$9$ use the word as ever Dante had.   
022:164,07['  ]| The spirits of Moynihan and O'Neill and Glynn seemed to$4$ 
022:164,08['  ]| him worthy of some blowing about round the verges of a  
022:164,09['  ]| hell which$6#1$ would be a caricature of Dante's.  The spirits of  
022:164,10['  ]| the patriotic and religious enthusiasts seemed to$4$ him fit to$9$  
022:164,11['  ]| inhabit the fraudulent circles where hidden in$4$ hives of 
022:164,12['  ]| immaculate ice they might work their bodies to$4$ the due  
022:164,13['  ]| pitch of frenzy.  The spirits of the tame sodalists, unsullied  
022:164,14['  ]| and undeserving, he would petrify amid a ring of Jesuits in$4$  
022:164,15['  ]| the circle of foolish and grotespue virginities and ascend 
022:164,16['  ]| above them and their baffled icons to$4$ where his Emma, with  
022:164,17['  ]| no$2$ detail of her earthly form or vesture abated, invoked  
022:164,18['  ]| him from a Mohammadan paradise.   
022:164,19['  ]| At the door he had to$9$ resign her to$4$ others and see her  
022:164,20['  ]| depart with insignificant courtesies and as he came home  
022:164,21['  ]| alone he led his mood through mazes of doubts and misgivings.   
022:164,22['  ]| After that$6#2$ evening he did not see her for$4$ a little  
022:164,23['  ]| time as home affairs were rather engrossing.  His father's  
022:164,24['  ]| days of grace were exciting days.  It seemed likely that$3$ the  
022:164,25['  ]| family would not have where to$9$ lay its heads when at the  
022:164,26['  ]| eleventh hour Mr*Daedalus found a roof with a friend from the  
022:164,27['  ]| North of Ireland who$6#1$ was traveller for$4$ an ironmonger.   
022:164,28['  ]| Mr*Wilkinson was in$4$ possession of an old-fashioned house  
022:164,29['  ]| containing perhaps fifteen rooms of which$6#1$ he was nominally a tenant  
022:164,30['  ]| but, the landlord, an old miser without kith or kin in$4$  
022:164,31['  ]| the world, having died very opportunely, Mr*Wilkinson's  
022:164,32['  ]| tenancy was untroubled by$4$ considerations of time or money.   
022:164,33['  ]| Mr*Daedalus was allowed a set of aprtments in$4$ this dilapidated 
022:164,34['  ]| mansion for$4$ a small weekly payment and on$4$ the night  
022:164,35['  ]| before the day fixed for$4$ his legal eviction he moved his  
022:164,36['  ]| camp by$4$ night.  The little furniture which$6#1$ remained to$4$ them  
022:165,01['  ]| was carried on$4$ a float and Stephen and his brother and  
022:165,02['  ]| his mother and his father carried the ancestral portraits  
022:165,03['  ]| themselves as the draymen had drunk a good deal more than  
022:165,04['  ]| was good for$4$ them.  It was a clear night of late summer 
022:165,05['  ]| freshened with cold as they walked in$4$ a body beside the  
022:165,06['  ]| sea-wall.  Isabel had been removed earlier in$4$ the day and  
022:165,07['  ]| put in$4$ Mrs*Wilkinson's charge.  Mr*Daedalus was a long  
022:165,08['  ]| way in$4$ front with Maurice and in$4$ high spirits with his  
022:165,09['  ]| successful manoeuvre.  Stephen followed with his mother  
022:165,10['  ]| and even she was light-hearted.  The tide was lapping  
022:165,11['  ]| softly by$4$ the wall, being at the full, and through the clear  
022:165,12['  ]| air Stephen heard his father's voice like$4$ a muffled flute  
022:165,13['  ]| singing a love-song.  He made his mother stop to$9$ listen  
022:165,14['  ]| and they both leaned on$4$ the heavy picture-frames and listened:   
022:165,15[Z  ]| Shall carry my heart to$4$ thee 
022:165,16[Z  ]| Shall carry my heart to$4$ thee 
022:165,17[Z  ]| And the breath of the balmy night 
022:165,18[Z  ]| Shall carry my heart to$4$ thee 
022:165,19['  ]| In$4$ Mr*Wilkinson's house there was a lofty drawing-room  
022:165,20['  ]| panelled in$4$ oak entirely bare of furniture except for$4$ a piano.   
022:165,21['  ]| During the winter Mr*Wilkinson had been paid seven shillings  
022:165,22['  ]| a week by$4$ a dancing club for$4$ the use of the room on$4$ 
022:165,23['  ]| Tuesdays and Fridays but now he used the lower end of the  
022:165,24['  ]| room as a place of general storage for$4$ hardware samples.  He  
022:165,25['  ]| was a tall one-eyed man with a silent manner and a great  
022:165,26['  ]| power of holding his drink.  He had a deep appreciation of 
022:165,27['  ]| his guest whom he never addressed without the prefix  
022:165,28['  ]| ""Mr"".  He was married to$4$ a tall woman as silent as himself  
022:165,29['  ]| who$6#1$ read a great many novelettes and hung half her  
022:165,30['  ]| body out of the windows while her two young children  
022:165,31['  ]| entangled themselves in$4$ pieces of wire-netting and coils  
022:165,32['  ]| of gas-pipes.  She had a long white face and she laughed at  
022:165,33['  ]| everything.  Mr*Daedalus and Mr*Wilkinson went to$4$  
022:165,34['  ]| town every morning together and often came back together  
022:165,35['  ]| and, during the day, Mrs*Wilkinson hung out of the windows  
022:166,01['  ]| or talked with messenger boys and milkmen while Mrs*Daedalus  
022:166,02['  ]| sat by$4$ Isabel's bedside.  There could be no$2$ doubt  
022:166,03['  ]| now that$3$ the girl was in$4$ a bad way.  Her eyes were piteously  
022:166,04['  ]| enlarged and her voice had become hollow:  she sat half  
022:166,05['  ]| propped-up by$4$ pillows in$4$ the bed all day, her damp-looking  
022:166,06['  ]| hair hanging in$4$ wisps about her face, turning over  
022:166,07['  ]| the pages of an illustrated book.  She began to$9$ whimper  
022:166,08['  ]| when she was told to$9$ eat or when anyone left her bedside.   
022:166,09['  ]| She showed very little animation except when the piano  
022:166,10['  ]| was playing in$4$ the room below and then she made them  
022:166,11['  ]| leave the bedroom door open and closed her eyes.  Money  
022:166,12['  ]| was still scarce and still the doctor ordered her delicacies.   
022:166,13['  ]| The lingering nature of her illness had spread a hopeless  
022:166,14['  ]| apathy about the household and, though she herself was  
022:166,15['  ]| little more than a child, she must have been aware of this.   
022:166,16['  ]| Stephen alone with persistent kindness perserved his usual  
022:166,17['  ]| manner of selfish cheerfulness and strove to$9$ stir a fire out  
022:166,18['  ]| of her embers of life.  He even exaggerated and his mother  
022:166,19['  ]| reproved him for$4$ being so$5#1$ noisy.  He could not go into his  
022:166,20['  ]| sister and say to$4$ her ""Live!  live!"" but he tried to$9$ touch her  
022:166,21['  ]| soul in$4$ the shrillness of a whistle or the vibration of a note.   
022:166,22['  ]| Whenever he went into the room he asked questions with  
022:166,23['  ]| an indifferent air as if her illness was of no$2$ importance and  
022:166,24['  ]| once or twice he could have assured himself that$3$ the eyes  
022:166,25['  ]| that$6#1$ looked at him from the bed had guessed his meaning.   
022:166,26['  ]| The summer closed in$4$ sultry weather.  Cranly was still  
022:166,27['  ]| in$4$ Wicklow and Lynch had begun to$9$ study for$4$ an examination  
022:166,28['  ]| in$4$ October.  Stephen was too concerned with himself  
022:166,29['  ]| to$9$ talk much with his brother.  In$4$ a few days Maurice was  
022:166,30['  ]| to$9$ return to$4$ school, that$6#2$ event having been delayed a fortnight  
022:166,31['  ]| on$4$ account of what he himself called the ""boot and clothes""  
022:166,32['  ]| complaint.  Mr*Wilkinson's household dragged out 
022:166,33['  ]| day after day, Mrs*Wilkinson hanging herself out of the  
022:166,34['  ]| windows and Mrs*Daedalus watching her daughter.  Very  
022:166,35['  ]| often Mr*Wilkinson brought his guest home after a day's  
022:166,36['  ]| carouse and the two would sit in$4$ the kitchen for$4$ the rest  
022:167,01['  ]| of the night talking politics loudly.  When Stephen turned the  
022:167,02['  ]| corner of the avenue he could often hear his father's voice  
022:167,03['  ]| shouting or his father's fist banging the table.  When  
022:167,04['  ]| he came in$5$ the two disputants would ask him for$4$ his opinion  
022:167,05['  ]| but he always ate what supper there was without remark  
022:167,06['  ]| and retired to$4$ his room and as he went up$4$ the  
022:167,07['  ]| stairs he could hear his father say to$4$ Mr*Wilkinson  
022:167,08[J  ]| ""Queer chap, you know, queer chap!"" 
022:167,08['  ]| and he could imagine the  
022:167,09['  ]| heavy stare of Mr*Wilkinson's eyes.   
022:167,10['  ]| Stephen was very lonely.  As at the beginning of the summer  
022:167,11['  ]| so$5#2$ now:  he wandered vaguely through the streets.   
022:167,12['  ]| Emma had gone away to$4$ the Isles*of*Aran with a Gaelic  
022:167,13['  ]| party.  He was hardly unhappy and yet not happy.  His  
022:167,14['  ]| moods were still waited upon$5$ and courted and set down in$4$  
022:167,15['  ]| phrases of prose and verse:  and when the soles of his feet  
022:167,16['  ]| were too tired his mood too dim a memory or too  
022:167,17['  ]| timid a hope, he would wander into the long lofty dusty  
022:167,18['  ]| drawing-room and sit at the piano while the sunless dusk  
022:167,19['  ]| enwrapped him.  He could feel about him and above him  
022:167,20['  ]| the hopeless house and the decay of leaves and in$4$ his soul  
022:167,21['  ]| the one bright insistent star of joy trembling at her wane.   
022:167,22['  ]| The chords that$6#1$ floated towards the cobwebs and rubbish  
022:167,23['  ]| and floated vainly to$4$ the dust-strewn windows were the  
022:167,24['  ]| meaningless voices of his perturbation and all they could  
022:167,25['  ]| do was flow in$4$ meaningless succession through all the  
022:167,26['  ]| chambers of sentience.  He breathed an air of tombs.   
022:167,27['  ]| Even the value of his own life came into doubt with him.   
022:167,28['  ]| He laid a finger upon$4$ every falsehood it contained:   
022:167,29['  ]| egoism which$6#1$ proceeded bravely before men to$9$ be frighted by$4$  
022:167,30['  ]| the least challenge of the conscience, freedom which$6#1$ would  
022:167,31['  ]| dress the world anew in$4$ vestments and usages begotten  
022:167,32['  ]| of enslavement, mastery of an art understood by$4$ few  
022:167,33['  ]| which$6#1$ owed its very delicacy to$4$ a physical decrepitude, itself  
022:167,34['  ]| the brand and sign of vulgar ardours.  Cemeteries  
022:167,35['  ]| revealed their inffectual records to$4$ him, records of the  
022:168,01['  ]| lives of all those who$6#1$ with good grace or bad grace had accepted  
022:168,02['  ]| an obvious divinity.  The vision of all those failures, and 
022:168,03['  ]| the vision, far more pitiful, of congenital lives, shuffling  
022:168,04['  ]| onwards amid yawn and howl, beset him with evil:   
022:168,05['  ]| and evil, in$4$ the similitude of disorted ritual, called to$4$ his soul  
022:168,06['  ]| to$9$ commit fornication with her.   
022:168,07['  ]| One evening he sat at his piano while the dusk  
022:168,08['  ]| enfolded him.  The dismal sunset lingered upon$4$ the  
022:168,09['  ]| window-panes in$4$ a smoulder of rusty fires.  Above him and  
022:168,10['  ]| about him hung the shadow of decay, the decay of leaves  
022:168,11['  ]| and flowers, the decay of hope.  He desisted from his chords  
022:168,12['  ]| and waited, bending upon$4$ the keyboard in$4$ silence:  and his 
022:168,13['  ]| soul commingled itself with the assailing, inarticulate dusk.   
022:168,14['  ]| A form which$6#1$ he knew for$4$ his mother's appeared far down  
022:168,15['  ]| in$4$ the room, standing in$4$ the doorway.  In$4$ the gloom her  
022:168,16['  ]| excited face was crimson.  A voice which$6#1$ he remembered as  
022:168,17['  ]| his mother's, a voice of a terrified human being, called  
022:168,18['  ]| his name.  The form at the piano answered:   
022:168,19[B  ]| ~~ Yes?   
022:168,20[M  ]| ~~ Do you know anything about the body?  ~~  
022:168,21['  ]| He heard his mother's voice addressing him excitedly  
022:168,22['  ]| like$4$ the voice of a messenger in$4$ a play:   
022:168,23[M  ]| ~~ What ought I do?  There is some matter coming away  
022:168,24[M  ]| from the hole in$4$ Isabel's ~~ stomach. ~~ Did you ever  
022:168,25[M  ]| hear of that$6#2$ happening?   
022:168,26[B  ]| ~~ I do not know, 
022:168,26['  ]| he answered trying to$9$ make sense of her  
022:168,27['  ]| words, trying to$9$ say them again to$4$ himself.   
022:168,28[M  ]| ~~ Ought I send for$4$ the doctor. ~~ Did you ever hear of  
022:168,29[M  ]| that$6#2$?  ~~ What ought I do?   
022:168,30[B  ]| ~~ I do not know. ~~ What hole?   
022:168,31[M  ]| ~~ The hole ~~ the hole we all have ~~ here.   
023:169,01['  ]| STEPHEN was present in$4$ the room when his sister died.  As  
023:169,02['  ]| soon as her mother had been alarmed the priest was sent for$5$.   
023:169,03['  ]| He was a diminutive man who$6#1$ carried his head mostly on$4$  
023:169,04['  ]| his right shoulder and spoke in$4$ a lisping voice which$6#1$ was not 
023:169,05['  ]| very easily heard.  He heard the girl's confession and went  
023:169,06['  ]| away saying 
023:169,06[V  ]| ""Leave it to$4$ God:  He knows best:  leave it to$4$  
023:169,07[V  ]| God"".  
023:169,07['  ]| The doctor came with Mr*Daedalus on$4$ a car, examined  
023:169,08['  ]| the girl and asked had she seen a priest.  He went  
023:169,09['  ]| away saying that$3$ while there was life there was hope but she  
023:169,10['  ]| was very low:  he would call in$4$ the morning.  Isabel died a  
023:169,11['  ]| little after midnight.  Her father who$6#1$ was not quite sober  
023:169,12['  ]| walked about the room on$4$ tiptoe, cried in$4$ little fits every  
023:169,13['  ]| time his daughter showed a change and kept on$5$ saying 
023:169,13[J  ]| ""That$6#2$ is  
023:169,14[J  ]| right, duckey:  take that$6#2$ now"" 
023:169,14['  ]| whenever her mother forced  
023:169,15['  ]| her to$9$ swallow a little champagne and then nodded his head  
023:169,16['  ]| until he began to$9$ cry afresh.  He kept telling everyone to$9$ keep 
023:169,17['  ]| her spirits up$5$.  Maurice sat down by$4$ the empty fireplace and  
023:169,18['  ]| gazed in$4$ the grate.  Stephen sat at the head of the bed and  
023:169,19['  ]| held his sister's hand, her mother bending over her offering  
023:169,20['  ]| her the glass and kissing her and praying.  Isabel seemed to$4$ 
023:169,21['  ]| Stephen to$9$ have grown very old:  her face had become a  
023:169,22['  ]| woman's face.  Her eyes turned constantly between the two  
023:169,23['  ]| figures nearest to$4$ her as if to$9$ say she had been wronged in$4$  
023:169,24['  ]| being given life and, at Stephen's word, she gulped down 
023:169,25['  ]| whatever was offered her.  When she could swallow no$2$ more  
023:169,26['  ]| her mother said to$4$ her 
023:169,26[M  ]| ""You are going home, dear, now.  You  
023:169,27[M  ]| are going to$4$ heaven where we will$1$ all meet again.  Do not you  
023:169,28[M  ]| know?  ~~ Yes, dear. ~~ Heaven, with God"" 
023:169,28['  ]| and the child 
023:169,29['  ]| fixed her great eyes on$4$ her mother's face while her bosom  
023:169,30['  ]| began to$9$ heave loudly beneath the bedclothes.   
023:169,31['  ]| Stephen felt very acutely the futility of his sister's life.  He  
023:169,32['  ]| would have done many things for$4$ her and, though she was  
023:169,33['  ]| almost a stranger to$4$ him he was sorry to$9$ see her lying dead.   
023:170,01['  ]| Life seemed to$4$ him a gift; the statement ""I am alive"" seemed  
023:170,02['  ]| to$4$ him to$9$ contain a satisfactory certainty and many other  
023:170,03['  ]| things, held up$5$ as indubitable, seemed to$4$ him uncertain.  His  
023:170,04['  ]| sister had enjoyed little more than the fact of life, few or  
023:170,05['  ]| none of its privileges.  The supposition of an allwise God  
023:170,06['  ]| calling a soul home whenever it seemed good to$4$ Him could  
023:170,07['  ]| not redeem in$4$ his eyes the futility of her life.  The wasted  
023:170,08['  ]| body that$6#1$ lay before him had existed by$4$ sufferance; the spirit  
023:170,09['  ]| that$6#1$ dwelt therein had literally never dared to$9$ live and had  
023:170,10['  ]| not learned anything by$4$ an abstention which$6#1$ it had not willed  
023:170,11['  ]| for$4$ itself.  She had not been anything herself and for$4$ that$6#2$  
023:170,12['  ]| reason had not attached anything to$4$ herself or herself to$4$  
023:170,13['  ]| anything.  When they were children together people had  
023:170,14['  ]| spoken of ""Stephen and Maurice"" and her name had been  
023:170,15['  ]| added by$4$ an afterthought.  Even her name, a certain lifeless  
023:170,16['  ]| name, had held her apart from the plays of life.  Stephen  
023:170,17['  ]| remembered the voices of children crying with glee and  
023:170,18['  ]| venom:   
023:170,19[X  ]| Stephen, the Reephen, the Rix-Dix Deephen 
023:170,20['  ]| but it was always with half-hearted glee and shamefaced  
023:170,21['  ]| venom that$3$ they called out her name:   
023:170,22[X  ]| Isabel, the Risabel, the Rix-Dix Disabel.   
023:170,23['  ]| Isabel's death was the occasion of bringing to$4$ the house  
023:170,24['  ]| many of Mrs*Daedalus' relatives.  They knocked a little  
023:170,25['  ]| timidly at the hall-door and though they were very retiring  
023:170,26['  ]| in$4$ manner their host convicted them ~~ the females, at least ~~  
023:170,27['  ]| privately of making a cunning use of their eyes.  The males  
023:170,28['  ]| he received in$4$ the long empty drawingroom in$4$ which$6#1$ an  
023:170,29['  ]| early fire had been lit.  During the two nights of the girl's  
023:170,30['  ]| wake a big company assembled in$4$ the drawingroom:  they  
023:170,31['  ]| did not smoke but they drank and told stories.  The  
023:170,32['  ]| morning after the table looked like$4$ a marine-store so$5#1$  
023:170,33['  ]| crowded was it with empty bottles, black and green.  Isabel's  
023:171,01['  ]| two brothers assisted at this wake.  The discussions were often  
023:171,02['  ]| general.  One of the boys' uncles was a very shock-headed  
023:171,03['  ]| asthmatic man who$6#1$ had been in$4$ his youth rather indiscreet  
023:171,04['  ]| with his landlady's daughter and the family had been 
023:171,05['  ]| scarcely appeased by$4$ a tardy marriage.  One of Mr*Daedalus'  
023:171,06['  ]| friends, a clerk in$4$ the Police*Courts, told the company  
023:171,07['  ]| of the task which$6#1$ a friend of his in$4$ the Castle had in$4$ examining  
023:171,08['  ]| prohibited books:   
023:171,09[V  ]| ~~ Such filth, 
023:171,09['  ]| he said, 
023:171,09[V  ]| You would wonder how any man would  
023:171,10[V  ]| have the face to$9$ print it.   
023:171,11[V  ]| ~~ When I was a boy, 
023:171,11['  ]| said Uncle*John in$4$ a very flat accent, 
023:171,12[V  ]| and had more of a taste for$4$ reading than now and much less  
023:171,13[V  ]| money I used to$9$ go to$4$ a bookshop near Patrick's*Close.  One  
023:171,14[V  ]| day I went there to$9$ buy a copy of the \Colleen*Bawn\.  The man  
023:171,15[V  ]| asked me in$5$ and showed me a book ~~  
023:171,16[V  ]| ~~ I know, I know, 
023:171,16['  ]| said the clerk from the Police*Courts.   
023:171,17[V  ]| ~~ Such a book to$9$ put into the hands of a young lad!  Such  
023:171,18[V  ]| ideas to$9$ put in$4$ his head!  Scandalous!   
023:171,19['  ]| Maurice let a moment of respectful approval pass and then  
023:171,20['  ]| he asked:   
023:171,21[K  ]| ~~ Did you buy the book, Uncle*John?   
023:171,22['  ]| Everyone seemed inclined to$9$ laugh but Uncle*John grew  
023:171,23['  ]| very red and angry and went on$5$:   
023:171,24[V  ]| ~~ They should be prosecuted for$4$ putting such books on$4$  
023:171,25[V  ]| sale.  Chrildren should be kept in$4$ their places.   
023:171,26['  ]| Standing beside the closed piano on$4$ the morning of the  
023:171,27['  ]| funeral Stephen heard the coffin bumping down the crooked  
023:171,28['  ]| staircase.  The mourners followed it out and seated themselves  
023:171,29['  ]| in$4$ four carriages.  Stephen and Maurice carried  
023:171,30['  ]| the three wreaths into the mourning coach.  The hearse  
023:171,31['  ]| made for$4$ Glasnevin*Cemetery at a smart trot.  At the cemetery  
023:171,32['  ]| gates six hearses were drawn up$5$.  The funeral which$6#1$ had  
023:171,33['  ]| drawn up$5$ immediately before Isabel's was a funeral of someone  
023:171,34['  ]| of the poor class. The mourners, who$6#1$ were huddled in$4$  
023:171,35['  ]| sixes on$4$ outside cars, were just scrambling down from the  
023:171,36['  ]| cars as Mr*Daedalus and his fellow-mourners drove up$5$.  The  
023:172,01['  ]| first funeral went in$5$ through the gates where a little crowd  
023:172,02['  ]| of loungers and officials were grouped.  Stephen watched  
023:172,03['  ]| them pass in$5$.  Two of them who$6#1$ were late pushed their way  
023:172,04['  ]| viciously through the crowd.  A girl, one hand catching the 
023:172,05['  ]| woman's skirt, ran a pace in$4$ advance.  The girl's face was  
023:172,06['  ]| the face of a fish, discoloured and oblique-eyed; the woman's  
023:172,07['  ]| face was square and pinched, the face of a bargainer.  The  
023:172,08['  ]| girl, her mouth distorted, looked up$5$ at the woman to$9$ see if  
023:172,09['  ]| it was time to$9$ cry:  the woman, settling a flat bonnet, 
023:172,10['  ]| hurried on$5$ towards the mortuary chapel.   
023:172,11['  ]| At the mortuary chapel Mr*Daedalus and his friends had  
023:172,12['  ]| to$9$ wait until the poor mourners had first been served.  In$4$ a  
023:172,13['  ]| few minutes the service was over and Isabel's coffin was  
023:172,14['  ]| carried up$5$ and laid on$4$ the bier.  The mourners scattered in$4$  
023:172,15['  ]| the seats and knelt timidly on$4$ their handkerchiefs.  A priest  
023:172,16['  ]| with a great toad-like belly balanced to$4$ one side came out  
023:172,17['  ]| of the sacristy, followed by$4$ an altar boy.  He read the service  
023:172,18['  ]| rapidly in$4$ a croaking voice and shook the aspergill drowsily  
023:172,19['  ]| over the coffin, the boy piping responses at intervals.  When  
023:172,20['  ]| he had read the service he closed the book, crossed himself, 
023:172,21['  ]| and made back for$4$ the sacristy at a swinging gait.   
023:172,22['  ]| Labourers came in$5$ and bore out the coffin to$4$ a barrow and  
023:172,23['  ]| pushed it along the gravel-path.  The superintendant of the  
023:172,24['  ]| cemetery shook hands with Mr*Daedalus at the door of the  
023:172,25['  ]| chapel and followed the funeral slowly.  The coffin slid  
023:172,26['  ]| evenly into the grave and the grave-diggers began to$9$ shovel  
023:172,27['  ]| in$5$ the earth.  At the sound of the first clods Mr*Daedalus  
023:172,28['  ]| began to$9$ sob and one of his friends came to$4$ his side and held  
023:172,29['  ]| his arm.   
023:172,30['  ]| When the grave had been covered in$4$ the grave-diggers  
023:172,31['  ]| laid their shovels upon$4$ it and crossed themselves.  The  
023:172,32['  ]| wreaths were put on$4$ the grave and after a pause for$4$ prayer  
023:172,33['  ]| the mourning party returned through the trim alleys of the  
023:172,34['  ]| cemetery.  The unnatural tension of condolence had been  
023:172,35['  ]| somewhat relieved and the talk was becoming practical  
023:172,36['  ]| again.  They got into the carriages and drove back along the 
023:173,01['  ]| Glasnevin*Road.  At Dunphy's corner the carriage drew up$5$  
023:173,02['  ]| behind the carriages of other funerals.  In$4$ the bar Mr*Wilkinson  
023:173,03['  ]| stood the party the first drink:  the drivers of the  
023:173,04['  ]| carriages were called in$5$ and they stood by$4$ the door in$4$ a  
023:173,05['  ]| clump and rubbed their coat-sleeves across their bony  
023:173,06['  ]| battered-looking faces until they were asked to$9$ name their  
023:173,07['  ]| drink.  They all chose pints and indeed their own bodily  
023:173,08['  ]| tenements were not unlike hardly used pewter measures.   
023:173,09['  ]| The mourners drank small specials for$4$ the most part.   
023:173,10['  ]| Stephen, when asked what he would drink, answered at  
023:173,11['  ]| once:   
023:173,12[B  ]| ~~ A pint.   
023:173,13['  ]| His father ceased talking and began to$9$ regard him with  
023:173,14['  ]| great attention but, Stephen feeling too cold-hearted to$9$ be  
023:173,15['  ]| abashed, received his pint very seriously and drank it off in$4$  
023:173,16['  ]| a long draught.  While his head was beneath the tankard he 
023:173,17['  ]| was conscious of his startled father and he felt the savour of  
023:173,18['  ]| the bitter clay of the graveyard sharp in$4$ his throat.   
023:173,19['  ]| The inexpressively mean way in$4$ which$6#1$ his sister had been  
023:173,20['  ]| buried inclined Stephen to$9$ consider rather seriously the  
023:173,21['  ]| claims of water and fire to$9$ be the last homes of dead bodies.   
023:173,22['  ]| The entire apparatus of the State seemed to$4$ him at fault  
023:173,23['  ]| from its first to$4$ its last operation.  No$2$ young man can contemplate  
023:173,24['  ]| the fact of death with extreme satisfaction and no$2$  
023:173,25['  ]| young man, specialised by$4$ fate or her step-sister chance for$4$  
023:173,26['  ]| an organ of sensitiveness and intellectiveness, can contemplate 
023:173,27['  ]| the network of falsities and trivialities which$6#1$ make up$5$  
023:173,28['  ]| the funeral of a dead burgher without extreme disgust.  For$4$  
023:173,29['  ]| some days after the funeral Stephen, clothed in$4$ second-hand  
023:173,30['  ]| clothes of two shades of black, had to$9$ receive sympathies.   
023:173,31['  ]| Many of these sympathies proceeded from casual friends of  
023:173,32['  ]| the family.  Nearly all the men said 
023:173,32[X  ]| ""And how is the poor  
023:173,33[X  ]| mother bearing it?"" 
023:173,33['  ]| and nearly all the women said 
023:173,33[X  ]| ""It is a great  
023:173,34[X  ]| trial for$4$ your mother"":  
023:173,34['  ]| and the sympathies were always  
023:173,35['  ]| uttered in$4$ the same listless unconvincing monotone.  McCann  
023:173,36['  ]| was also sympathetic.  He came over to$4$ Stephen while that$6#2$  
023:174,01['  ]| young man was looking into a haberdasher's window at some  
023:174,02['  ]| ties and wondering why the Chinese chose yellow as a colour  
023:174,03['  ]| of mourning.  He shook hands briskly with Stephen:   
023:174,04[H  ]| ~~ I was sorry to$9$ hear of the death of your sister ~~ sorry  
023:174,05[H  ]| we did not know in$4$ time ~~ to$9$ have been at the funeral.   
023:174,06['  ]| Stephen released his hand gradually and said:   
023:174,07[B  ]| ~~ O, she was very young ~~ a girl.   
023:174,08['  ]| McCann released his hand at the same rate of release, and  
023:174,09['  ]| said:   
023:174,10[H  ]| ~~ Still ~~ it hurts.   
023:174,11['  ]| The acme of unconvincingness seemed to$4$ Stephen to$9$ have  
023:174,12['  ]| been reached at that$6#2$ moment.   
023:174,13['  ]| The second year of Stephen's University life opened  
023:174,14['  ]| early in$4$ October.  His godfather had made no$2$ comment on$4$ the  
023:174,15['  ]| result of the first year but Stephen was told that$3$ this opportunity  
023:174,16['  ]| would be the last given him.  He chose Italian as his  
023:174,17['  ]| optional subject, partly from a desire to$9$ read Dante seriously, 
023:174,18['  ]| and partly to$9$ escape the crush of French and German lectures.   
023:174,19['  ]| No-one else in$4$ the college studied Italian and every  
023:174,20['  ]| second morning he came to$4$ the college at ten o'clock and 
023:174,21['  ]| went up$5$ to$4$ Father*Artifoni's bedroom.  Father*Artifoni was  
023:174,22['  ]| an intelligent little \moro\, who$6#1$ came from Bergamo, a town in$4$  
023:174,23['  ]| Lombardy.  he had clean lively eyes and a thick full mouth.   
023:174,24['  ]| Every morning when Stephen rapped at his door there  
023:174,25['  ]| was the noise of chairs being disarranged before the ""8Avanti!""  
023:174,26['  ]| The little priest never read in$4$ the sitting posture and the noise  
023:174,27['  ]| which$6#1$ Stephen heard was the noise of an improvised lectern  
023:174,28['  ]| returning to$4$ its constituent parts, namely, two cane chairs  
023:174,29['  ]| and a stiff blotting-pad.  The Italian lessons often extended  
023:174,30['  ]| beyond the hour and much less grammar and literature was  
023:174,31['  ]| discussed than philosophy.  The teacher probably knew the  
023:174,32['  ]| doubtful reputation of his pupil but for$4$ this very reason he  
023:174,33['  ]| adopted a language of ingenious piety, not that$3$ he was himself  
023:174,34['  ]| Jesuit enough to$9$ lack ingenuousness but that$3$ he was  
023:174,35['  ]| Italian enough to$9$ enjoy a game of belief and unbelief.  He  
023:175,01['  ]| reproved his pupil once for$4$ an admiring allusion to$4$ the author 
023:175,02['  ]| of \The*Triumphant*Beast\.   
023:175,03[V  ]| ~~ You know, 
023:175,03['  ]| he said, 
023:175,03[V  ]| the writer, Bruno, was a terrible  
023:175,04[V  ]| heretic.   
023:175,05[B  ]| ~~ Yes, 
023:175,05['  ]| said Stephen, 
023:175,05[B  ]| and he was terribly burned.   
023:175,06['  ]| But the teacher was a poor inquisitor.  He told Stephen  
023:175,07['  ]| very slyly 
023:175,07[YV ]| that$3$ when he and his clerical companions  
023:175,08[YV ]| attended public lectures in$4$ the University the lecturer was  
023:175,09[YV ]| shrewd enough to$9$ add a trifle of salt to$4$ his criticisms.  
023:175,09['  ]| Father*Artifoni 
023:175,10['  ]| accepted the salt with a relish.  He was unlike many  
023:175,11['  ]| of the citizens of the third Italy in$4$ his want of affection for$4$  
023:175,12['  ]| the English and he was inclined to$9$ be lenient towards the  
023:175,13['  ]| audacities of his pupil, which$6#1$, he supposed, must have been 
023:175,14['  ]| the outcome of too fervid Irishism.  He was unable to$9$ associate  
023:175,15['  ]| audacity of thought with any temper but that$6#2$ of the  
023:175,16['  ]| irredentist.   
023:175,17['  ]| Father*Artifoni had to$9$ admit one day to$4$ Stephen that$3$ the  
023:175,18['  ]| most reprehensible moment of human delight in$4$ as much as  
023:175,19['  ]| it had given pleasure to$4$ a human being was good in$4$ the  
023:175,20['  ]| sight of God.  The conversation had been about an Italian  
023:175,21['  ]| novel.  A priest in$4$ the house had read the novel and condemned  
023:175,22['  ]| it to$4$ the dinner-table.  It was bad, he said.  Stephen  
023:175,23['  ]| urged that$3$ it had given him at least esthetic pleasure and  
023:175,24['  ]| that$3$, for$4$ that$6#2$ reason, it could be said to$9$ be good:   
023:175,25[V  ]| ~~ Father*Byrne does not think so$5#2$.   
023:175,26[B  ]| ~~ But God?   
023:175,27[V  ]| ~~ For$4$ God it might be ~~ good.   
023:175,28[B  ]| ~~ Then I prefer to$9$ side against Father*Byrne.   
023:175,29['  ]| They argued very acutely of the beautiful and the good.   
023:175,30['  ]| Stephen wished to$9$ amend or to$9$ clarify scholastic terminology:   
023:175,31[XB ]| a contrast between the good and the beautiful was not necessary.   
023:175,32[XB ]| Aquinas had defined the good as that$6#2$ towards the  
023:175,33[XB ]| possesion of which$6#1$ an appetite tended, the desirable.  But  
023:175,34[XB ]| the true and the beautiful were desirable, were the highest, 
023:176,01[XB ]| most persistent orders of the desirable, truth being desired  
023:176,02[XB ]| by$4$ the intellectual appetite which$6#1$ was appeased  
023:176,03[XB ]| by$4$ the most satisfying relations of the intelligible, beauty  
023:176,04[XB ]| being desired by$4$ the esthetic appetite which$6#1$ was appeased  
023:176,05[XB ]| by$4$ the most satisfying relations of the sensible.  
023:176,05['  ]| Father*Artifoni 
023:176,06['  ]| admired very much the wholehearted manner in$4$ which$6#1$  
023:176,07['  ]| Stephen vivified philosophic generalisations and encouraged  
023:176,08['  ]| the young man to$9$ write a treatise on$4$ esthetic.  It must have  
023:176,09['  ]| been a surprise for$4$ him to$9$ find in$4$ such latitudes a young man  
023:176,10['  ]| who$6#1$ could not conceive a divorce between art and nature, 
023:176,11['  ]| and that$6#2$ not for$4$ reasons of climate or temperament but for$4$  
023:176,12['  ]| intellectual reasons.  For$4$ Stephen art was neither a copy nor  
023:176,13['  ]| an imitation of nature:  the artistic process was a natural process.   
023:176,14['  ]| In$4$ all his talk about artistic perfection it was impossible  
023:176,15['  ]| to$9$ detect an artificial accent.  To$9$ talk about the perfection  
023:176,16['  ]| of one's art was not for$4$ him to$9$ talk about something agreed  
023:176,17['  ]| upon$5$ as sublime but in$4$ reality no$2$ more than a sublime convention 
023:176,18['  ]| but rather to$9$ tralk a veritably sublime process of one's  
023:176,19['  ]| nature which$6#1$ had a right to$4$ examination and open discussion.   
023:176,20['  ]| 
023:176,21['  ]| It was exactly this vivid interest which$6#1$ kept him away from  
023:176,22['  ]| such places of uncomely dalliance as the debating society and  
023:176,23['  ]| the warmly cushioned sodality.  Mr*Moynihan's inaugural  
023:176,24['  ]| address was held in$4$ the Aula*Maxima in$4$ November.  The  
023:176,25['  ]| President took the chair, surrounded by$4$ his professors.  The  
023:176,26['  ]| platform was given up$5$ to$4$ notabilities and the body of the  
023:176,27['  ]| hall to$4$ the irregular intellectuals who$6#1$ go from address to$4$ 
023:176,28['  ]| address during the winter season and never miss attendance  
023:176,30['  ]| at the theatre when the play is not played in$4$ English.  The  
023:176,31['  ]| end of the hall was packed with the students of the college.   
023:176,32['  ]| Nine-tenths of them were very serious and nine-tenths of the  
023:176,33['  ]| remainder were serious at intervals.  Before the paper was  
023:176,34['  ]| read Whelan received from the president a gold medal for$4$  
023:176,35['  ]| oratory, and one of Mr*Daniel's sons a silver medal for$4$  
023:176,36['  ]| oratory.  Mr*Moynihan was in$4$ evening dress and the front 
023:176,37['  ]| of his hair was curled.  When  
023:177,01['  ]| he stood up$5$ to$9$ read his paper the president clapped him and  
023:177,02['  ]| then the hall clapped.  Moynihan's paper showed that$3$ the  
023:177,03['  ]| true consoler of the afflicted was not the self-seeking demagogue  
023:177,04['  ]| with his ignorance and lax morality but the Church  
023:177,05['  ]| and that$3$ the true way to$9$ better the lot of the working classes  
023:177,06['  ]| was not by$4$ teaching them to$9$ disbelieve in$4$ a spiritual and  
023:177,07['  ]| material order, working together in$4$ harmony, but by$4$ teaching  
023:177,08['  ]| them to$9$ follow in$4$ humility the life of One who$6#1$ was the  
023:177,09['  ]| friend of all humanity, great and lowly, rich and poor, just 
023:177,10['  ]| and unjust, lettered and unlettered, of One who$6#1$ though  
023:177,11['  ]| above all other men was Himself the meekest of men.  Moynihan  
023:177,12['  ]| alluded also to$4$ the strange death of a French atheistic  
023:177,13['  ]| writer and implied that$3$ Emmanuel had chosen to$9$ revenge  
023:177,14['  ]| himself on$4$ the unhappy gentleman by$4$ privily tampering with  
023:177,15['  ]| his gas-stove.   
023:177,16['  ]| Among the speakers who$6#1$ followed Moynihan were a  
023:177,17['  ]| County*Court*Judge and a retired colonel of reactionary  
023:177,18['  ]| sympathies.  All the speakers praised the work done by$4$ the  
023:177,19['  ]| Jesuits in$4$ training the youth of Ireland for$4$ the higher walks  
023:177,20['  ]| of life.  The essayist of the night was adduced as an example.   
023:177,21['  ]| From his post beside Cranly in$4$ an angle of the hall Stephen  
023:177,22['  ]| glanced along the ranks of students.  The faces which$6#1$ were  
023:177,23['  ]| now composed to$4$ seriousness all bore the same stamp of  
023:177,24['  ]| Jesuit training.  For$4$ the most part they were free from the  
023:177,25['  ]| more blatant crudities of youth; they were not without a  
023:177,26['  ]| certain inoffensive genuine distaste for$4$ the vices of youth.   
023:177,27['  ]| They admired Gladstone, physical science and the tragedies  
023:177,28['  ]| of Shakespeare:  and they believed in$4$ the adjustment of  
023:177,29['  ]| Catholic teaching to$4$ everyday needs, in$4$ the Church diplomatic.   
023:177,30['  ]| Without displaying an English desire for$4$ an aristocracy  
023:177,31['  ]| of substance they held violent measures to$9$ be unseemly  
023:177,32['  ]| and in$4$ their relations among themselves and towards  
023:177,33['  ]| their superiors they displayed a nervous and (whenever there 
023:177,34['  ]| was question of authority) a ver English liberalism.  They  
023:178,01['  ]| respected spiritual and temporal authorities, the spiritual  
023:178,02['  ]| authorities of Catholicism and of patriotism, and the temporal  
023:178,03['  ]| authorities of the hierarchy and the government.  The  
023:178,04['  ]| memory of Terence*MacManus was not less revered by$4$  
023:178,05['  ]| them than the memory of Cardinal*Cullen.  If the call to$4$ a  
023:178,06['  ]| larger and nobler life ever came to$9$ visit them they heard it  
023:178,07['  ]| with secret gladness but always they decided to$9$ defer their  
023:178,08['  ]| lives until a favourable moment because they unready.   
023:178,09['  ]| They listened to$4$ all the speakers attentively and applauded  
023:178,10['  ]| whenever there was an allusion to$4$ the President, to$4$ Ireland  
023:178,11['  ]| or to$4$ the faith.  Temple shambled into the hall in$4$ the  
023:178,12['  ]| middle of the proceedings and introduced a friend of his to$4$ Stephen:   
023:178,13[S  ]| ~~ 'Scuse me, this is Fitz, decent fellow.  He admires you.   
023:178,14[S  ]| 'Scuse me for$4$ introducing him, decent fellow.   
023:178,15['  ]| Stephen shook hands with Fitz, a grey-headed young man  
023:178,16['  ]| with a puzzled flushed face.  Fitz and Temple stood against  
023:178,17['  ]| the wall for$4$ support as they were both a little unsteady.   
023:178,18['  ]| Fitz began to$9$ doze quietly.   
023:178,19[S  ]| ~~ He is a revolutionist, 
023:178,19['  ]| said Temple to$4$ Stephen and  
023:178,20['  ]| Cranly.  
023:178,20[S  ]| Do you know what, Cranly, I believe you are a revolutionist  
023:178,21[S  ]| too.  Are you a revolutionist ~~ Ah, by$4$ hell, you do not  
023:178,22[S  ]| like$1$ answering that$6#2$ ~~ I am a revolutionist.   
023:178,23['  ]| At this moment a speaker was applauded for$4$ mentioning  
023:178,24['  ]| the name of John*Henry*Newman.   
023:178,25[S  ]| ~~ Who$6#2$ is he, 
023:178,25['  ]| said Temple to$4$ everyone near him, 
023:178,25[S  ]| who$6#2$ is  
023:178,26[S  ]| this chap?   
023:178,27[V  ]| ~~ Colonel*Russell.   
023:178,28[S  ]| ~~ O, is this Colonel ~~ What did he say?  What was it he  
023:178,29[S  ]| said?   
023:179,01['  ]| Nobody answered him so$3$ he shambled through a few more  
023:179,02['  ]| incoherent questions and at last, unable to$9$ satisfy himself as  
023:179,03['  ]| to$4$ the Colonel's way of thinking, called out 
023:179,03[S  ]| ""Hurrah for$4$ the  
023:179,04[S  ]| Mad Mullah"" 
023:179,04['  ]| and then asked Cranly id he not think the  
023:179,05['  ]| Colonel was a 
023:179,05[S  ]| ""bloody cod"".   
023:179,06['  ]| Stephen studied even less regularly during the second year  
023:179,07['  ]| than he had done during the first.  He attended lectures  
023:179,08['  ]| oftener but he seldom went to$4$ the Library to$9$ read.  The  
023:179,09['  ]| \Vita*Nuova\ of Dante suggested to$4$ him that$3$ he should make his  
023:179,10['  ]| scattered love-verses into a perfect wreath and he explained  
023:179,11['  ]| to$4$ Cranly at great length the difficulties of the verse-maker.   
023:179,12[YB ]| His love-verses gave him pleasure:  he wrote them at long  
023:179,13[YB ]| intervals and when he wrote it was always a mature and  
023:179,14[YB ]| reasoned emotion which$6#1$ urged him.  But in$4$ his expressions  
023:179,15[YB ]| of love he found himself compelled to$9$ use what he called the  
023:179,16[YB ]| feudal terminology and as he could not use it with the same  
023:179,17[YB ]| faith and purpose as animated the feudal poets themselves 
023:179,18[YB ]| he was compelled to$9$ express his love a little ironically.  
023:178,18[B  ]| This  
023:179,19[B  ]| suggestion of relativity, 
023:179,19['  ]| he said, 
023:179,19[B  ]| mingling itself with so$5#1$ immune  
023:179,20[B  ]| a passion is a modern note:  we cannot swear or expect  
023:179,21[B  ]| eternal fealty because we recognise too accurately the limits  
023:179,22[B  ]| of every human energy.  It is not possible for$4$ the modern  
023:179,23[B  ]| lover to$9$ think the universe an assistant at his love-affair and  
023:179,24[B  ]| modern love, losing somewhat of its fierceness, gains also  
023:179,25[B  ]| somewhat in$4$ amiableness.  
023:179,25['  ]| Cranly would not hear of this:   
023:179,26['  ]| for$4$ him a distinction between ancient and modern was a  
023:179,27['  ]| trick of words because he had in$4$ his own mind reduced past  
023:179,28['  ]| and present to$4$ a level of studious ignobility.  Stephen tried  
023:179,29['  ]| to$9$ sustain against him that$3$ 
023:179,29[B  ]| though humanity may not change  
023:179,30[B  ]| beyond recognition during the short eras known as the ages  
023:179,31[B  ]| of man yet these ages are the preys of different ideas in$4$  
023:179,32[B  ]| accordance with which$6#1$ every activity, even the least, which$6#1$  
023:179,33[B  ]| they engender is conceived and directed.  The distinction, 
023:179,34['  ]| he argued, 
023:179,34[B  ]| between the feudal spirit and the spirit of humanity 
023:179,35[B  ]| at present is not a phrase of the men of letters.  
023:179,35['  ]| Cranly, like$4$  
023:179,36['  ]| many cynical romanticists, held 
023:179,36[YR ]| tha the civil life affected in$4$  
023:180,01[YR ]| no$2$ way the individual life and that$3$ it was possible for$4$ men to$9$  
023:180,02[YR ]| preserve ancient superstitions and prejudices in$4$ the midst of  
023:180,03[YR ]| a machinery of modernity just as it was possible for$4$ men to$9$  
023:180,04[YR ]| live in$4$ the medley of machines a life of conformity and yet  
023:180,05[YR ]| to$9$ be in$4$ his heart a rebel against the order he upheld:   
023:180,06[YR ]| human nature was a constant quantity.  As for$4$ the scheme of  
023:180,07[YR ]| making a wreath of songs in$4$ praise of love he thought that$3$  
023:180,08[YR ]| if such a passion really existed it was incapable of being  
023:180,09[YR ]| expressed.   
023:180,10[B  ]| ~~ We are not likely to$9$ know whether it exist or not if no$2$  
023:180,11[B  ]| man tries to$9$ express it, 
023:180,11['  ]| said Stephen.  
023:180,11[B  ]| We have nothering to$9$  
023:180,12[B  ]| test it by$4$.   
023:180,13[R  ]| ~~ What can you test it by$4$?  
023:180,13['  ]| said Cranly.  
023:180,13[R  ]| The  
023:180,14[R  ]| Church says the test of friendship is to$9$ see if a man will$1$ lay  
023:180,15[R  ]| down his life for$4$ a friend.   
023:180,16[B  ]| ~~ You do not believe that$6#2$, surely?   
023:180,17[R  ]| ~~ No$7$; bloody fools of people will$1$ die for$4$ different things.   
023:180,18[R  ]| McCann, for$4$ instance, would die out of sheer obstinacy.   
023:180,19[B  ]| ~~ Renan says a man is a martyr only for$4$ things of which$6#1$  
023:180,20[B  ]| he is not quite sure.   
023:180,21[R  ]| ~~ Men die for$4$ two sticks put crosswise even in$4$ this modern  
023:180,22[R  ]| age.  What is a cross but two common sticks?   
023:180,23[B  ]| ~~ Love, 
023:180,23['  ]| said Stephen, 
023:180,23[B  ]| is a name, if you like$1$, for$4$ something  
023:180,24[B  ]| inexpressible ~~ but no$7$, I will$1$ not admit that$6#2$ ~~ I believe it  
023:180,25[B  ]| might be a test of love to$9$ see what exchanges it offers.  What  
023:180,26[B  ]| do people give when they love?   
023:180,27[R  ]| ~~ A wedding breakfast, 
023:180,27['  ]| said Cranly.   
023:180,28[B  ]| ~~ Their bodies, is not it:  that$6#2$, at the very least.  It is something  
023:180,29[B  ]| to$9$ give one's body even for$4$ hire.   
023:180,30[R  ]| ~~ Then you think that$3$ women who$6#1$ give their bodies for$4$  
023:180,31[R  ]| hire, as you say, love the people they give them to$4$?   
023:180,32[B  ]| ~~ When we love, we give.  In$4$ a way they love too.  We  
023:180,33[B  ]| give something, a tall hat or a book of music or one's time  
023:180,34[B  ]| and labour or one's body, in$4$ exchange for$4$ love.   
023:180,35[R  ]| ~~ I would a damn sight sooner them women gave me a tall hat  
023:180,36[R  ]| than their bodies.   
023:181,01[B  ]| ~~ A matter of taste.  You may like$1$ tall hats.  I do not.   
023:181,02[R  ]| ~~ My dear man, 
023:181,02['  ]| said Cranly, 
023:181,02[R  ]| you know next to$4$ nothing  
023:181,03[R  ]| about human nature.   
023:181,04[B  ]| ~~ I know a few elementary things and I express them in$4$  
023:181,05[B  ]| words.  I feel emotions and I express them in$4$ rhyming lines.   
023:181,06[B  ]| Song is the simple rhythmic liberation of an emotion.  Love  
023:181,07[B  ]| can express itself in$4$ part through song.   
023:181,08[R  ]| ~~ You idealise everything.   
023:181,09[B  ]| ~~ You make me think of Hughes when you say that$6#2$.   
023:181,10[R  ]| ~~ You imagine that$3$ people are capable of all these ~~  
023:181,11[R  ]| all this beautiful imaginary business. They are not.  Look at  
023:181,12[R  ]| the girls you see every day.  Do you think they would understand  
023:181,13[R  ]| what you say about love?   
023:181,14[B  ]| ~~ I do not know really, 
023:181,14['  ]| said Stephen.  
023:181,14[B  ]| I do not idealise the  
023:181,15[B  ]| girls I see every day.  I regard them as marsupials. ~~ But  
023:181,16[B  ]| still I must express my nature.   
023:181,17[R  ]| ~~ Write the verses, anyway, 
023:181,17['  ]| said Cranly.  
023:181,18[B  ]| ~~ I feel rain, 
023:181,18['  ]| said Stephen stopping under a branch and  
023:181,19['  ]| waiting for$4$ the fall of raindrops.   
023:181,20['  ]| Cranly stood beside him and watched his pose with an  
023:181,21['  ]| expression of bitter satisfaction on$4$ his face.   
023:181,22['  ]| During his wanderings Stephen came on$4$ an old library in$4$  
023:181,23['  ]| the midst of those sluttish streets which$6#1$ are called old Dublin.   
023:181,24['  ]| The library had been founded by$4$ Archbishop*Marsh and  
023:181,25['  ]| though it was open to$4$ the public few people seemed aware of  
023:181,26['  ]| its existence.  The librarian, delighted at the prospect  
023:181,27['  ]| of a reader, showed Stephen niches and nooks inhabited by$4$  
023:181,28['  ]| dusty brown volumes.  Stephen went there a few times in$4$  
023:181,29['  ]| the week to$9$ read old Italian books of the Trecento.  He had  
023:181,30['  ]| begun to$9$ be interested in$4$ Franciscan literature.  He appreciated  
023:181,31['  ]| not without pitiful feelings the legend of the mild  
023:181,32['  ]| heresiarch of Assisi.  He knew, by$4$ instince, that$3$ S%*Francis'  
023:181,33['  ]| love-chains would not hold him very long but the Italian was  
023:181,34['  ]| very quaint.  Elias and Joachim also relieved the nai^f history.   
023:181,35['  ]| He had found on$4$ one of the carts of books near the river an  
023:182,01['  ]| unpublished book containing two stories by$4$ W%*B%*Yeats.   
023:182,02['  ]| One of these stories was called \The*Tables*of*the*Law\ and in$4$  
023:182,03['  ]| it was mentioned the fabulous preface which$6#1$ Joachim, abbot  
023:182,04['  ]| of Flora, is said to$9$ have prefixed to$4$ his Eternal*Gospel.  This  
023:182,05['  ]| discovery, coming so$5#1$ aptly upon$4$ his own researches, induced 
023:182,06['  ]| him to$9$ follow his Franciscan studies with vigour.  He went  
023:182,07['  ]| every Sunday evening to$4$ the church of the Capuchins  
023:182,08['  ]| whither he had once carried the disgraceful burden of his  
023:182,09['  ]| sins to$9$ be eased of it.  He was not offended by$4$ the processions 
023:182,10['  ]| of artizans and labourers round the church and the sermons  
023:182,11['  ]| of the priests were grateful to$4$ him inasmuch as the speakers  
023:182,12['  ]| did not seem inclined to$9$ make much use of their rhetorical  
023:182,13['  ]| and elocutionary training nor anxious to$9$ reveal themselves, 
023:182,14['  ]| in$4$ theory, at least, men of the world.  He thought, in$4$ an  
023:182,15['  ]| Assisan mood, that$3$ these men might be nearer to$4$ his purpose  
023:182,16['  ]| than others:  and one evening while talking with a Capuchin, 
023:182,17['  ]| he had over and over to$9$ restrain an impulse which$6#1$ urged  
023:182,18['  ]| him to$9$ take the priest by$4$ the arm, lead him up$4$ and down  
023:182,19['  ]| the chapel-yard and deliver himself boldly of the whole story  
023:182,20['  ]| of the \Tables*of*the*Law\, every word of which$6#1$ he remembered.   
023:182,21['  ]| Considering Stephen's general attitude towards the Church, 
023:182,22['  ]| there was certainly a profound infection in$4$ such an impulse  
023:182,23['  ]| which$6#1$ it needed great efforts of his intelligent partner to$9$  
023:182,24['  ]| correct.  He satisfied himself by$4$ leading Lynch round the  
023:182,25['  ]| enclosure of Stephen's*Green and making that$6#2$ young man  
023:182,26['  ]| very awkward by$4$ reciting Mr%*Yeat's story with careful  
023:182,27['  ]| animation.  Lynch said he did not know what the story was  
023:182,28['  ]| about but, afterwards, when safely secluded in$4$ a ""snug"" he  
023:182,29['  ]| said that$3$ the recitation had given him immense pleasure.   
023:182,30[B  ]| ~~ These monks are worthy men, 
023:182,30['  ]| said Stephen.   
023:182,31[U  ]| ~~ Full, round men, 
023:182,31['  ]| said Lynch.   
023:182,32[B  ]| ~~ Worthy men.  I went a few days ago to$4$ their library.  I  
023:182,33[B  ]| had great trouble getting in$5$:  all the monks came out of  
023:182,34[B  ]| different corners to$9$ spy at me.  Father*Guardian 
023:182,35[B  ]| asked me what I wanted.  Then he brought me in$5$ and gave  
023:182,36[B  ]| himself a great deal of trouble going over books.  Mind you, 
023:183,01[B  ]| he was a fat priest and he had just dined so$3$ he really was  
023:183,02[B  ]| good-natured.   
023:183,03[U  ]| ~~ Good worthy man.   
023:183,04[B  ]| ~~ He did not know in$4$ the least what I wanted or why I  
023:183,05[B  ]| wanted it but he went up$5$ one page and down the next with  
023:183,06[B  ]| his finger looking for$4$ the name and puffing and humming to$4$  
023:183,07[B  ]| himself 
023:182,07[X  ]| ""Jacopone, Jacopone, Jacopone, Jacopone"".  
023:182,07[B  ]| Have not  
023:183,08[B  ]| I a sense of rhythm, eh?   
023:183,09['  ]| Stephen was still a lover of the deformations wrought by$4$  
023:183,10['  ]| dusk.  Lake autumn and winter in$4$ Dublin are always seasons  
023:183,11['  ]| of damp gloomy weather.  He went through the streets at  
023:183,12['  ]| night intoning phrases to$4$ himself.  He repeated often the  
023:183,13['  ]| story of \The*Tables*of*the*Law\ and the story of the \Adoration*of*the*Magi\.   
023:183,14['  ]| The atmosphere of these stories was heavy with  
023:183,15['  ]| incense and omens and the figures of the monk-errants, 
023:183,16['  ]| Ahern and Michael*Robartes strode through it with great 
023:183,17['  ]| strides.  Their speeches were like$4$ the enigmas of a disdainful  
023:183,18['  ]| Jesus; their morality was infrahuman or superhuman:  the  
023:183,19['  ]| ritual they laid such store by$4$ was so$5#1$ incoherent and heterogeneous, 
023:183,20['  ]| so$5#1$ strange a mixture of trivialities and sacred practices  
023:183,21['  ]| that$3$ it could be recognised as the ritual of men who$6#1$ had  
023:183,22['  ]| received from the hands of high priets, 
023:183,23['  ]| anciently guilty of some arrogance of the spirit, a confused  
023:183,24['  ]| and dehumanised tradition, a mysterious ordination.   
023:183,25['  ]| Civilisation may be said indeed to$9$ be the creation of its outlaws  
023:183,26['  ]| but the least protest against the existing order is made  
023:183,27['  ]| by$4$ the outlaws whose creed and manner of life is not renewable  
023:183,28['  ]| even so$5#1$ far as to$9$ be reactionary.  These inhabit a church 
023:183,29['  ]| apart; they lift their thuribles wearily before their deserted  
023:183,30['  ]| altars; they live beyond the region of mortality, having  
023:183,31['  ]| chosen to$9$ fulfil the law of their being.  A young man like$4$  
023:183,32['  ]| Stephen in$4$ such a season of damp and unrest has no$2$  
023:183,33['  ]| pains to$9$ believe in$4$ the reality of their existence.  They lean  
023:183,34['  ]| pitifully towards the earth, like$4$ vapours, desirous  
023:183,35['  ]| of sin, remembering the pride of their origin, calling to$4$ others  
023:183,36['  ]| to$9$ come to$4$ them.  Stephen was fondest of repeating to$4$ himself 
023:184,01['  ]| this beautiful passage from \The*Tables*of*the*Law\:  
023:184,01[Z  ]| Why do  
023:184,02[Z  ]| you fly from our torches which$6#1$ were made out of the wood  
023:184,03[Z  ]| of the trees under which$6#1$ Christ wept in$4$ the gardens of  
023:184,04[Z  ]| Gethsemane?  Why do you fly from our torches which$6#1$ were  
023:184,05[Z  ]| made of sweet wood after it had vanished from the world  
023:184,06[Z  ]| and come to$4$ us who$6#1$ made it of old tunes with our breath?   
023:184,07['  ]| A certain extravagance began to$9$ tinge his life.  He was aware  
023:184,08['  ]| that$3$ though he was nominally in$4$ amity with the order of  
023:184,09['  ]| society into which$6#1$ he had been born, he would not be able  
023:184,10['  ]| to$9$ continue so$5#2$.  The life of an errant seemed to$4$ him far less 
023:184,11['  ]| ignoble than the life of one who$6#1$ had accepted the tyranny of  
023:184,12['  ]| the mediocre because the cost of being exceptional was too  
023:184,13['  ]| high.  The young generation which$6#1$ he saw growing up$5$ about  
023:184,14['  ]| him regarded his manifestations of spiritual activity as something  
023:184,15['  ]| more than unseemly and he knew that$3$, under their air  
023:184,16['  ]| of fearful amiableness, the representatives of authority  
023:184,17['  ]| cherished the hope that$3$ his unguided nature would bring  
023:184,18['  ]| him into such a lamentable conflict with actuality that$3$ they  
023:184,19['  ]| would one day have the pleasure of receiving him officially  
023:184,20['  ]| into some hospital or asylum.  This would have been no$2$ unusual  
023:184,21['  ]| end for$4$ the high emprise of youth often brings  
023:184,22['  ]| one to$4$ premature senility and a poet's boldness  
023:184,23['  ]| is certainly proved an ill keeper of promises when it  
023:184,24['  ]| induces him to$9$ lead a lobster by$4$ a bright blue ribbon along  
023:184,25['  ]| the footpath reserved for$4$ the citizens.  He felt acutely the  
023:184,26['  ]| insidious dangers which$6#1$ conceal themselves under the guise  
023:184,27['  ]| of extravagance but he was convinced also that$3$ a dull discharge  
023:184,28['  ]| of duties, neither understood nor congenial, was far  
023:184,29['  ]| more dangerous and far less satisfactory.   
023:184,30[R  ]| ~~ The Church believes that$3$ in$4$ every act a man does he  
023:184,31[R  ]| seeks some good, 
023:184,31['  ]| said Cranly.  
023:184,31[R  ]| The public man wants to$9$  
023:184,32[R  ]| make money, Whelan wants to$9$ become a County*Court  
023:184,33[R  ]| judge, that$6#2$ girl I saw you talking to$4$ yesterday ~~  
023:184,34[B  ]| ~~ Miss*Clery?   
023:184,35[R  ]| ~~ She wants a man and a little house to$9$ live in$4$.  The  
023:184,36[R  ]| missioner wants to$9$ make heathens Christian, 
023:185,01[R  ]| the librarian of the National*Library wants to$9$ make the Dublin 
023:185,02[R  ]| people students and readers.  I understand  
023:185,03[R  ]| the good which$6#1$ these men seek but what do you seek?   
023:185,04[B  ]| ~~ The Church differentiates between the good which$6#1$ this  
023:185,05[B  ]| man seeks and the good which$6#1$ I seek.  There is a \7bonum\ 
023:185,06[B  ]| \7simpliciter\.  Then men you mention seek a good of that$6#2$ kind  
023:185,07[B  ]| because they are impelled by$4$ passions which$6#1$ are  
023:185,08[B  ]| direct even if they are menial:  lust, ambition, gluttony.  I  
023:185,09[B  ]| seek a \7bonum 7arduum\.   
023:185,10[R  ]| ~~ It might be a \7bonum\ very much \7simpliciter\.  I do not think  
023:185,11[R  ]| you know, 
023:185,11['  ]| said Cranly.   
024;186,01['  ]| ABOUT this time there was some agitation in$4$ the political  
024:186,02['  ]| world concerning the working of the Royal*University.  It  
024:186,03['  ]| was proposed to$9$ institute a commission to$9$ examine into the  
024:186,04['  ]| matter.  The Jesuits were accused of working the machine  
024:186,05['  ]| for$4$ their own ends without a just sense of impartiality.  To$9$  
024:186,06['  ]| parry the charge of obscurantism a monthly review was  
024:186,07['  ]| started under the editorship of McCann.  The new editor  
024:186,08['  ]| was in$4$ high spirits over this event.   
024:186,09[H  ]| ~~ I have got nearly all the ""copy"" for$4$ the first number, 
024:186,09['  ]| he  
024:186,10['  ]| said to$4$ Stephen.  
024:186,10[H  ]| I am sure it will$1$ be a success.  I want you  
024:186,11[H  ]| to$9$ write us something for$4$ the second number ~~ but something  
024:186,12[H  ]| we can understand.  Condescend a little.  You can not say  
024:186,13[H  ]| we are such barbarians now:  we have a paper of our own.   
024:186,14[H  ]| We can express our views.  You will$1$ write us something, 
024:186,15[H  ]| will$1$ not you?  We have an article by$4$ Hughes in$4$ this month.   
024:186,16[B  ]| ~~ Of course there is a censor?  
024:186,16['  ]| said Stephen.   
024:186,17[H  ]| ~~ Well, 
024:186,17['  ]| said McCann, 
024:186,17[H  ]| the person who$6#1$ originated the idea  
024:186,18[H  ]| of the paper in$4$ the first instance was Father*Cummins.   
024:186,19[B  ]| ~~ The director of your sodality?   
024:186,20[H  ]| ~~ Yes.  He originated the idea so$3$ you see he acts as a kind  
024:186,21[H  ]| of sponsor to$4$ us.   
024:186,22[B  ]| ~~ He is the Censor then?   
024:186,23[H  ]| ~~ He has discretionary powers but he is not at all narrow-minded.   
024:186,24[H  ]| You need not be afraid of him.   
024:186,25[B  ]| ~~ I see.  And tell me, will$1$ I be paid?   
024:186,26[H  ]| ~~ I thought you were an idealist, 
024:186,26['  ]| said McCann.   
024:186,27[B  ]| ~~ Good luck to$4$ the paper, 
024:186,27['  ]| said Stephen waving his hand  
024:186,28['  ]| in$4$ adieu.   
024:186,29['  ]| The first number of McCann's paper contained a long  
024:186,30['  ]| article by$4$ Hughes on$4$ 
024:186,30[Z  ]| \The*Future*of*the*Celt\.  
024:186,30['  ]| It contained also  
024:186,31['  ]| an article in$4$ Irish by$4$ Glynn's sister and an editorial article by$4$  
024:186,32['  ]| McCann in$4$ which$6#1$ was narrated the history of the inception  
024:186,33['  ]| of the paper.  The article began 
024:186,33[Z  ]| ""It was a happy thought of  
024:186,34[Z  ]| the director of our sodality to$9$ unite the various elements of  
024:187,01[Z  ]| our college life by$4$ affording them the opportunity of interchanging  
024:187,02[Z  ]| ideas and criticisms through the medium of a  
024:187,03[Z  ]| University magazine.  Thanks to$4$ the zeal and enterprise of  
024:187,04[Z  ]| Father*Cummins the initial difficulties have been surmounted  
024:187,05[Z  ]| and we make our bow to$4$ the public in$4$ the expectation that$3$  
024:187,06[Z  ]| the public will$1$ give us a hearing"".  
024:187,06['  ]| The paper also contained  
024:187,07['  ]| several pages of notes from various sporting and intellectual 
024:187,08['  ]| societies in$4$ which$6#1$ celebrities were chaffed under the thin  
024:187,09['  ]| disguise of their Latinised surnames.  
024:187,09['  ]| The ""Medical*Memoes""  
024:187,10['  ]| which$6#1$ were signed ""H2O"" 
024:187,10['  ]| consisted of several congratulatory  
024:187,11['  ]| paragraphs about medicoes who$6#1$ had passed  
024:187,12['  ]| their final examinations and a few complimentary paragraphs  
024:187,13['  ]| about the genial professors of the medical school.   
024:187,14['  ]| The paper also contained some verses: \The*Female*Fellow\:   
024:187,15['  ]| (a swallow-flight of song) which$6#1$ were signed ""Toga*Girilis"".   
024:187,16['  ]| Stephen was shown the new review in$4$ the Library by$4$  
024:187,17['  ]| Cranly who$6#1$ seemed to$9$ have read it from the first line to$4$ the 
024:187,18['  ]| last.  Cranly took his friend from one item to$4$ another with  
024:187,19['  ]| great persistence, paying no$2$ heed to$4$ Stephen's exclamations  
024:187,20['  ]| of impatience.  At the ""Medical*Memoes"" Stephen execrated  
024:187,21['  ]| with such smothered fervour that$3$ Cranly began to$9$ laugh  
024:187,22['  ]| between the pages of the paper and a red-faced priest who$6#1$  
024:187,23['  ]| was sitting opposite stared indignantly across his copy of  
024:187,24['  ]| \The*Tablet\.  In$4$ the porch of the Library were a little knot of  
024:187,25['  ]| young men and a little knot of young women, all provided  
024:187,26['  ]| with copies of the new review.  All were laughing and talking, 
024:187,27['  ]| making the rain an excuse for$4$ lingering under shelter.   
024:187,28['  ]| McCann, brisk and heated with his cycling-cap sideways on$4$  
024:187,29['  ]| his head, went to$8$ and fro between the groups.  When he saw  
024:187,30['  ]| Stephen he approached with an air of expectancy.   
024:187,31[H  ]| ~~ Well?  Have you seen ~~?   
024:187,32[B  ]| ~~ It is a great day for$4$ Ireland, 
024:187,32['  ]| said Stephen, seizing the  
024:187,33['  ]| Editor's hand and shaking it gravely.   
024:187,34[H  ]| ~~ Well ~~ it is something, 
024:187,34['  ]| said McCann with a suffused  
024:187,35['  ]| forehead.   
024:187,36['  ]| Stephen leaned against one of the stone pillars and  
024:188,01['  ]| regarded the farther group.  She stood in$4$ a ring of her companions, 
024:188,02['  ]| laughing and talking with them.  The anger with  
024:188,03['  ]| which$6#1$ the new review had filled him gradually ebbed away  
024:188,04['  ]| and he chose to$9$ contemplate the spectacle which$6#1$ she and her  
024:188,05['  ]| companions offered him.  As on$4$ his entrance into the grounds  
024:188,06['  ]| of Clonliffe*College a sudden sympathy arose out of a  
024:188,07['  ]| sudden reminiscence, a reminiscent sympathy toward a  
024:188,08['  ]| protected seminarist life the very virtues of which$6#1$  
024:188,09['  ]| seemed to$9$ be set provokingly before the wild gaze of the  
024:188,10['  ]| world, so$5#1$ provokingly that$3$ only the strength of walls and  
024:188,11['  ]| watch dogs held them in$4$ a little circle of modish and timid  
024:188,12['  ]| ways.  Though their affections often lacked grace and their  
024:188,13['  ]| vulgarity wanted only lungs to$9$ be strident the rain brought  
024:188,14['  ]| him charity.  The babble of the young students reached him  
024:188,15['  ]| as if from a distance, in$4$ broken pulsations, and lifting his eyes  
024:188,16['  ]| he saw the high rain-clouds retreating across the rain-swept  
024:188,17['  ]| country.  The quick light shower was over, tarrying, a cluster  
024:188,18['  ]| of diamonds, among the shrubs of the quadrangle where an  
024:188,19['  ]| exhalation ascended from the blackened earth.  The company  
024:188,20['  ]| in$4$ the colonnade was leaving shelter, with many a  
024:188,21['  ]| doubting glance, with a prattle of trim boots, a pretty rescue  
024:188,22['  ]| of petticoats, under umbrellas, a light armoury, upheld at  
024:188,23['  ]| cunning angles.  He saw them returning to$4$ the convent ~~  
024:188,24['  ]| demure corridors and simple dormitories, a quiet rosary of  
024:188,25['  ]| hours ~~ while the rain-clouds retreated towards the west and  
024:188,26['  ]| the babble of the young men reached him in$4$ regular pulsations.   
024:188,27['  ]| He saw far away amid a flat rain-swept country a high  
024:188,28['  ]| plain building with windows that$6#1$ filtered the obscure daylight.   
024:188,29['  ]| Three hundred boys, noisy and hungry, sat at long  
024:188,30['  ]| tables eating beef fringed with green fat like$4$ blubber and 
024:188,31['  ]| junks of white damp bread and one young boy, leaning upon$4$  
024:188,32['  ]| his elbows, opened and closed the flaps of his ears while the  
024:188,33['  ]| noise of the diners reached him rhythmically as the wild  
024:188,34['  ]| gabble of animals.   
024:188,35[B  ]| ~~ There should be an art of gesture, 
024:188,35['  ]| said Stephen one  
024:188,36['  ]| night to$4$ Cranly.   
024:189,01[R  ]| ~~ Yes?   
024:189,02[B  ]| ~~ Of course I do not mean art of gesture in$4$ the sense that$3$  
024:189,03[B  ]| the elocution professor understands the word.  For$4$ him a  
024:189,04[B  ]| gesture is an emphasis.  I mean a rhythm.  You know the  
024:189,05[B  ]| song 
024:189,05[Z  ]| ""Come unto these yellow sands""?   
024:189,06[R  ]| ~~ No$7$.   
024:189,07[B  ]| ~~ This is it, 
024:189,07['  ]| said the youth making a graceful anapaestic  
024:189,08['  ]| gesture with each arm.  
024:189,08[B  ]| That$6#2$ is the rhythm, do you see?   
024:189,09[R  ]| ~~ Yes.   
024:189,10[B  ]| ~~ I would like$1$ to$9$ go out into Grafton*St some day and  
024:189,11[B  ]| make gestures in$4$ the middle of the street.   
024:189,12[R  ]| ~~ I would like$1$ to$9$ see that$6#2$.   
024:189,13[B  ]| ~~ There is no$2$ reason why life should lose all grace and  
024:189,14[B  ]| nobility even though Columbus discovered America.  I will$1$  
024:189,15[B  ]| live a free and noble life.   
024:189,16[R  ]| ~~ Yes?   
024:189,17[B  ]| ~~ My art will$1$ proceed from a free and noble source.  It is  
024:189,18[B  ]| too troublesome for$4$ me to$9$ adopt the manners of these slaves.   
024:189,19[B  ]| I refuse to$9$ be terrorised into stupidity.  Do you believe that$3$  
024:189,20[B  ]| one line of verse can immortalise a man?   
024:189,21[R  ]| ~~ Why not one word?   
024:189,22[B  ]| ~~ ""Sitio"" is a classical cry.  Try to$9$ improve on$4$ it.   
024:189,23[R  ]| ~~ Do you think that$3$ Jesus when he hung on$4$ the cross  
024:189,24[R  ]| appreciated what you would call the rhythm of that$6#2$ remark?   
024:189,25[R  ]| Do you think that$3$ Shakespeare when he wrote a song went  
024:189,26[R  ]| out into the street to$9$ make gestures to$4$ people?   
024:189,27[B  ]| ~~ It is evident that$3$ Jesus was unable to$9$ illustrate his remark  
024:189,28[B  ]| by$4$ a correspondingly magnificent gesture but I do not  
024:189,29[B  ]| imagine he uttered it in$4$ a matter-of-fact voice.  Jesus had a  
024:189,30[B  ]| very pure tragic manner:  his conduct during his trial was  
024:189,31[B  ]| admirable.  Do you imagine the Church could have erected  
024:189,32[B  ]| such elaborately artistic sacraments about his legend unless  
024:189,33[B  ]| the original figure had been one of a certain tragic majesty?   
024:189,34[R  ]| ~~ And Shakespeare ~~ ?   
024:189,35[B  ]| ~~ I do not believe he wanted to$9$ go out into the street but  
024:189,36[B  ]| I am sure he appreciated his own music.  I do not believe that$3$  
024:190,01[B  ]| beauty is fortuitous.  A man might think for$4$ seven years at  
024:190,02[B  ]| intervals and all at once write a quatrain which$6#1$ would immortalise 
024:190,03[B  ]| him seemingly without thought or care ~~ semingly.   
024:190,04[B  ]| Then the groundling will$1$ say:  ""O, he could write poetry"":   
024:190,05[B  ]| and if I ask ""How was that$6#2$?"" the groundling will$1$ answer  
024:190,06[B  ]| ""Well, he just wrote it, that$6#2$ is all"".   
024:190,07[R  ]| ~~ In$4$ my opinion you imagine all this about rhythm and  
024:190,08[R  ]| gesture.  A poet according to$4$ you, is a terribly mixed-up  
024:190,09[R  ]| fellow.   
024:190,10[B  ]| ~~ The reason you say that$6#2$ is because you have never seen  
024:190,11[B  ]| a poet in$4$ action before.   
024:190,12[R  ]| ~~ How do you know that$6#2$?   
024:190,13[B  ]| ~~ You think my theorising very high-flown and fantastical, 
024:190,14[B  ]| do not you?   
024:190,15[R  ]| ~~ Yes, I do.   
024:190,16[B  ]| ~~ Well, I tell you you think me fantastical simply because  
024:190,17[B  ]| I am modern.   
024:190,18[R  ]| ~~ My dear man, that$6#2$ is rubbish.  You are always talking  
024:190,19[R  ]| about ""modern"".  Have you any idea of the age of the earth?   
024:190,20[R  ]| You say you are emancipated but, in$4$ my opinion, you  
024:190,21[R  ]| have not got beyond the first book of Genesis yet.  There is no$2$  
024:190,22[R  ]| such thing as ""modern"" or ""ancient"":  it is all the same.   
024:190,23[B  ]| ~~ What is all the same?   
024:190,24[R  ]| ~~ Ancient and modern.   
024:190,25[B  ]| ~~ O, yes, I know, everything is the same as everything else.   
024:190,26[B  ]| Of course I know the word ""modern"" is only a word.  But  
024:190,27[B  ]| when I use it I use it with a certain meaning ~~  
024:190,28[R  ]| ~~ What do you mean, for$4$ instance?   
024:190,29[B  ]| ~~ The modern spirit is vivisective.  Vivisection itself is the  
024:190,30[B  ]| most modern process one can conceive.  The ancient spirit  
024:190,31[B  ]| accepted phenomena with a bad grace.  The ancient method  
024:190,32[B  ]| investigated law with the lantern of justice, morality with the  
024:190,33[B  ]| lantern of revelation, art with the lantern of tradition.  But  
024:190,34[B  ]| all these lanterns have magical properties:  they transform  
024:190,35[B  ]| and disfigure.  The modern method examines its territory by$4$  
024:190,36[B  ]| the light of day.  Italy has added a science to$4$ civilisation by$4$  
024:191,01[B  ]| putting out the lantern of justice and considering the criminal  
024:191,02[B  ]| in$4$ production and in$4$ action.  All modern political  
024:191,03[B  ]| and religious criticism dispenses with presumptive States, 
024:191,04[B  ]| presumptive Redeemers and Churches.  It  
024:191,05[B  ]| examines the entire community in$4$ action and reconstructs  
024:191,06[B  ]| the spectacle of redemption.  If you were an esthetic philosopher  
024:191,07[B  ]| you would take note of all my vagaries because here  
024:191,08[B  ]| you have the spectacle of the esthetic instinct in$4$ action.  The  
024:191,09[B  ]| philosophic college should spare a detective for$4$ me.   
024:191,10[R  ]| ~~ I suppose you know that$3$ Aristotle founded the science  
024:191,11[R  ]| of biology.   
024:191,12[B  ]| ~~ I would not say a word against Aristotle for$4$ the world  
024:191,13[B  ]| but I think his spirit would hardly do itself justice in$4$ treating  
024:191,14[B  ]| of the ""inexact"" sciences.   
024:191,15[R  ]| ~~ I wonder what Aristotle would have thought of you as a  
024:191,16[R  ]| poet?   
024:191,17[B  ]| ~~ I am damned if I would apologise to$4$ him at all.  Let him  
024:191,18[B  ]| examine me if he is able.  Can you imagine a handsome lady  
024:191,19[B  ]| saying 
024:191,19[X  ]| ""O, excuse me, my dear Mr*Aristotle, for$4$ being so$5#1$  
024:191,20[X  ]| beautiful""?   
024:191,21[R  ]| ~~ He was a very wise man.   
024:191,22[B  ]| ~~ Yes but I do not think he is the special patron of those  
024:191,23[B  ]| who$6#1$ proclaim the usefulness of a stationary march.   
024:191,24[R  ]| ~~ What do you mean?   
024:191,25[B  ]| ~~ Have you noticed what a false and unreal sound abstract  
024:191,26[B  ]| terms have on$4$ the lips of those ancients in$4$ the college?  You  
024:191,27[B  ]| see what talk they have now about their new paper.  McCann  
024:191,28[B  ]| is supposed to$9$ lead them out of captivity.  Does not that$6#2$ paper  
024:191,29[B  ]| of theirs make you say to$4$ yourself ""O Lord, I am glad I had  
024:191,30[B  ]| no$2$ hand in$4$ this""?  The toy life which$6#1$ the Jesuits permit these  
024:191,31[B  ]| docile young men to$9$ live is what I call a stationary march.   
024:191,32[B  ]| The marionette life which$6#1$ the Jesuit himself lives as a dispenser  
024:191,33[B  ]| of illumination and rectitude is another variety of the  
024:191,34[B  ]| stationary march.  And yet both these classes of puppets  
024:191,35[B  ]| think that$3$ Aristotle has apologised for$4$ them before the eyes  
024:191,36[B  ]| of the world.  Kindly remember the monstrous legend upon$4$  
024:192,01[B  ]| which$6#1$ all their life is regulated ~~ how Aristotelian it is!   
024:192,02[B  ]| Kindly remember the minute by*laws they have for$4$ estimating  
024:192,03[B  ]| the exact amount of salvation in$4$ any good work ~~ what  
024:192,04[B  ]| an Aristotelian invention!   
024:192,05['  ]| A week or so$5#2$ before Christmas Stephen was standing one  
024:192,06['  ]| night in$4$ the porce of the Library when Emma came out.   
024:192,07['  ]| She stopped to$9$ talk with him.  She was dressed cosily in$4$ warm  
024:192,08['  ]| tweeds and the long even coils of her white boa presented  
024:192,09['  ]| her smiling face to$4$ the wintry air.  Any young man of reasonable  
024:192,10['  ]| sanity, seeing so$5#1$ happy and so$5#1$ glowing a figure in$4$ a  
024:192,11['  ]| cheerless landscape, would have longed to$9$ take it in$4$ his arms.   
024:192,12['  ]| She wore a little brown fur cap which$6#1$ made her look like$4$ a  
024:192,13['  ]| Christmas doll and her incorrigible eyes seemed to$9$ say  
024:192,14['  ]| ""Would not you like$1$ to$9$ fondle me?""  She began to$9$ chatter at  
024:192,15['  ]| once.  She knew the girl that$6#1$ had written \The*Female*Fellow\ ~~  
024:192,16['  ]| an awfully smart girl at that$6#2$ kind of thing.  They had a 
024:192,17['  ]| magazine in$4$ her convent too; she wrote ""skits"" for$4$ it.   
024:192,18[D  ]| ~~ By$4$ the way I hear dreadful things about you.   
024:192,19[B  ]| ~~ How is that$6#2$?   
024:192,20[D  ]| ~~ Everyone says you have dreadful ideas, that$3$ you read  
024:192,21[D  ]| dreadful books.  You are a mystic or something.  Do you  
024:192,22[D  ]| know what I heard a girl say?   
024:192,23[B  ]| ~~ No$7$.  What?   
024:192,24[D  ]| ~~ That$3$ you did not believe in$4$ God.   
024:192,25['  ]| They were walking along the Green inside the chains and  
024:192,26['  ]| as she said this she gave more of her body's warmth to$4$ him  
024:192,27['  ]| and her eyes looked at him with an expression of solicitude.   
024:192,28['  ]| Stephen looked into them steadfastly.   
024:192,29[B  ]| ~~ Never mind God, Emma, 
024:192,29['  ]| he said.  
024:192,29[B  ]| You interest me much  
024:192,30[B  ]| more than that$6#2$ old gentleman does.   
024:192,31[D  ]| ~~ What gentleman?  
024:192,31['  ]| said Emma frankly.   
024:192,32[B  ]| ~~ The middle-aged gentleman with the aviary ~~ Jehovah*the*Second.   
024:192,33[B  ]|  
024:192,34[D  ]| ~~ you must not say such things to$4$ me, I told you that$6#2$ before.   
024:192,35[B  ]| ~~ Very good, Emma.  I see you are afraid you will$1$ lose  
024:192,36[B  ]| the faith.  But you need not be afraid of my influence.   
024:193,01['  ]| They walked from the Green as far as the South*Circular*Road  
024:193,02['  ]| without an attempt at further conversation.  At every  
024:193,03['  ]| step that$6#1$ they took Stephen's resolution to$9$ leave her and see  
024:193,04['  ]| no$2$ more of her became more deeply rooted.  Even as a  
024:193,05['  ]| diversion her company was slightly degrading to$4$ his sense of  
024:193,06['  ]| dignity.  As they passed under the tall trees of the Mall she  
024:193,07['  ]| slackened her pace and, when safe from the lights of the  
024:193,08['  ]| bridge, halted deliberately.  Stephen was very much surprised  
024:193,09['  ]| as the hour and the place made their position equivocal  
024:193,10['  ]| and, though she had chosen the broad shadow of the trees  
024:193,11['  ]| to$9$ halt in$4$, she had committed this audacity in$4$ sight of her  
024:193,12['  ]| own house.  They listened for$4$ a moment to$4$ the quiet flowing  
024:193,13['  ]| of the water and saw the tram begin to$9$ crawl off the apex of  
024:193,14['  ]| the bridge.   
024:193,15[D  ]| ~~ Do I interest you so$5#1$ much as that$6#2$?  
024:193,15['  ]| she said, speaking at  
024:193,16['  ]| last in$4$ a rich significant voice.   
024:193,17[B  ]| ~~ Of course you do, 
024:193,17['  ]| said Stephen trying to$9$ match her  
024:193,18['  ]| tone.  
024:193,18[B  ]| I know that$3$ you are alive and human.   
024:193,19[D  ]| ~~ But so$5#1$ many people are alive.   
024:193,20[B  ]| ~~ You are a woman, Emma.   
024:193,21[D  ]| ~~ Would you call me a woman now?  Do not you think I  
024:193,22[D  ]| am still a girl?   
024:193,23['  ]| Stephen's gaze traversed the provoking territory for$4$ a few  
024:193,24['  ]| moments during which$6#1$ her half-closed eyes suffered the  
024:193,25['  ]| trespass without remonstrating.   
024:193,26[B  ]| ~~ No$7$, Emma, 
024:193,26['  ]| he said.  
024:193,26[B  ]| You are not a girl any longer.   
024:193,27[D  ]| ~~ But you are not a man, are you?  
024:193,27['  ]| she said quickly for$4$  
024:193,28['  ]| pride and youth and desire were beginning to$9$ inflame her  
024:193,29['  ]| cheek even in$4$ the shadow.   
024:193,30[B  ]| ~~ I am a hobbledehoy, 
024:193,30['  ]| said Stephen.   
024:193,31['  ]| She leaned a little more towards him and the same expression  
024:193,32['  ]| of tender solicitude appeared in$4$ her eyes.  The  
024:193,33['  ]| warmth of her body seemed to$9$ flow into his and without a  
024:193,34['  ]| moment's hesitation he put his hand into his pocket and  
024:193,35['  ]| began to$9$ finger out his coins.   
024:193,36[D  ]| ~~ I must be going in$5$, 
024:193,36['  ]| she said.   
024:194,01[B  ]| ~~ Good night, 
024:194,01['  ]| said Stephen smiling.   
024:194,02['  ]| When she had gone in$5$ he went along by$4$ the canal bank, 
024:194,03['  ]| still in$4$ the shadow of the leafless trees, humming to$4$ himself  
024:194,04['  ]| the chant of the Good*Friday gospel.  He thought of what he  
024:194,05['  ]| had said to$4$ Cranly that$3$ when people love they give and he  
024:194,06['  ]| said aloud 
024:194,06[B  ]| ""I will$1$ never speak to$4$ her again"".  
024:194,06['  ]| As he came near  
024:194,07['  ]| the lower bridge a woman emerged from the shadows and  
024:194,08['  ]| said 
024:194,08[X  ]| ""Good night, love"".  
024:194,08['  ]| Stephen stood still and looked at  
024:194,09['  ]| her.  She was an undersized woman and even in$4$ that$6#2$  
024:194,10['  ]| chilly season her clothes gave off an odour of ancient sweats.   
024:194,11['  ]| A black straw hat was set rakishly above her glazed  
024:194,12['  ]| face.  She asked him to$9$ come for$4$ a little walk.  Stephen did  
024:194,13['  ]| not speak to$4$ her but, still humming the chant of the passion, 
024:194,14['  ]| transferred his coins to$4$ her hand and continued on$4$ his way.   
024:194,15['  ]| He heard her benedictions at his back as he walked and he  
024:194,16['  ]| began to$9$ wonder which$6#1$ was better from the literary point  
024:194,17['  ]| of view:  Renan's account of the death of Jesus or the account 
024:194,18['  ]| given by$4$ the evangelists.  He had once heard a preacher 
024:194,19['  ]| allude in$4$ horrified piety to$4$ the theory put forward by$4$ some 
024:194,20['  ]| literary agent of the devil that$3$ Jeus was a maniac.  The  
024:194,21['  ]| woman in$4$ the black straw hat would never believe that$3$  
024:194,22['  ]| Jesus was a maniac and Stephen shared her opinion.  
024:194,22@b   | He is  
024:194,23@b   | certainly a great exemplar for$4$ bachelors, 
024:194,23['  ]| he said to$4$ himself, 
024:194,24@b   | but he is a little too careful of himself for$4$ a divine person.   
024:194,25@b   | The woman in$4$ the black straw hat has never heard of the  
024:194,26@b   | name of Buddha but Buddha's character seems to$9$ have been  
024:194,27@b   | superior to$4$ that$6#2$ of Jesus with respect to$4$ unaffected sanctity.   
024:194,28@b   | I wonder how she would like$1$ that$6#2$ story of Yasodhara's  
024:194,29@b   | kissing Buddha after his illumination and penance.  Renan's  
024:194,30@b   | Jesus is a trifle Buddhistic but the fierce eaters and drinkers  
024:194,31@b   | of the western world would never worship such a figure.   
024:194,32@b   | Blood will$1$ have blood.  There are some people in$4$ this island  
024:194,33@b   | who$6#1$ sing a hymn called 
024:194,33[Z  ]| ""Washed*in*the*blood*of*the*Lamb""  
024:194,34@b   | by$4$ way of easing the religious impulse.  Perhaps it is a  
024:194,35@b   | question of diet but I would prefer to$9$ wash in$4$ rice-water.   
024:194,36@b   | Yeow!  what a notion!  A blood-bath to$9$ cleanse the  
024:195,01@b   | spiritual body of all its sinful sweats ~~ The sense of decorum  
024:195,02@b   | makes that$6#2$ woman wear a black staw hat in$4$ midwinter.   
024:195,03@b   | She said to$4$ me 
024:194,03[Z  ]| ""Good night, love"".  
024:194,03@b   | The greatest lover of all  
024:195,04@b   | time could not say more than that$6#2$.  Think of it 
024:194,04[Z  ]| ""Good night, 
024:195,05[Z  ]| love"".  
024:194,05@b   | Must not the devil be annoyed to$9$ hear her described  
024:195,06@b   | as an evil creature?   
024:195,07[B  ]| ~~ I am not going to$9$ see her any more, 
024:195,07['  ]| said Stephen a few  
024:195,08['  ]| nights later to$4$ Lynch.   
024:195,09[U  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is a great mistake, 
024:195,09['  ]| said Lynch expanding his chest.   
024:195,10[B  ]| ~~ It is only waste of time.  I will$1$ never get what I want from  
024:195,11[B  ]| her.   
024:195,12[U  ]| ~~ And what do you want from her?   
024:195,13[B  ]| ~~ Love.   
024:195,14[U  ]| ~~ Eh?   
024:195,15[B  ]| ~~ Love.   
024:195,16['  ]| ~~ Lynch halted abruptly, saying:   
024:195,17[U  ]| ~~ Look here, I have fourpence. ~~  
024:195,18[B  ]| ~~ \You\ have?   
024:195,19[U  ]| ~~ Let us go in$5$ somewhere.  But if I give you a drink you  
024:195,20[U  ]| must promise not to$9$ say that$6#2$ any more.   
024:195,21[B  ]| ~~ Say what?   
024:195,22[U  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ word.   
024:195,23[B  ]| ~~ ""Love"" is it?   
024:195,24[U  ]| ~~ Let us go in$4$ here.   
024:195,25['  ]| When they were sitting in$4$ the squalid gloom of a tavern  
024:195,26['  ]| Stephen began to$9$ rock his stool from leg to$4$ leg  
024:195,27['  ]| meditatively.   
024:195,28[B  ]| ~~ I see I have educated you too much, my good Lynch?   
024:195,29[U  ]| ~~ But that$6#2$ was an atrocity, 
024:195,29['  ]| said Lynch enjoying the  
024:195,30['  ]| luxury of entertaining and rebuking his companion.   
024:195,31[B  ]| ~~ You do not believe me?   
024:195,32[U  ]| ~~ Of course not.   
024:195,33['  ]| Stephen concerned himself with his pewter measure for$4$ a  
024:195,34['  ]| little time.   
024:195,35[B  ]| ~~ Of course, 
024:195,35['  ]| he said at last, 
024:195,35[B  ]| I would take something less  
024:195,36[B  ]| if she would give it to$4$ me.   
024:196,01[U  ]| ~~ O, I know you would.   
024:196,02[B  ]| ~~ Would you like$1$ me to$9$ seduce her?   
024:196,03[U  ]| ~~ Very much.  It would be very interesting.   
024:196,04[B  ]| ~~ Ah, it would not be possible!   
024:196,05['  ]| Lynch laughed.   
024:196,06[U  ]| ~~ The sorrow-stricken tone you say that$6#2$ in$4$.  I wish  
024:196,07[U  ]| McCann could hear you.   
024:196,08[B  ]| ~~ You know, Lynch, 
024:196,08['  ]| said Stephen, we may as well  
024:196,09['  ]| acknowledge openly and freely.  
024:196,09[B  ]| We must have women.   
024:196,10[U  ]| ~~ Yes I agree.  We must have women.   
024:196,11[B  ]| ~~ Jesus said 
024:196,11[Z  ]| ""Whoso looketh upon$4$ a woman to$9$ lust after  
024:196,12[Z  ]| her hath already committed adultery with her in$4$ his heart:""   
024:196,13[B  ]| but he did not condemn ""adultery"".  Besides it is impossible  
024:196,14[B  ]| not to$9$ commit ""adultery"".   
024:196,15[U  ]| ~~ Quite impossible.   
024:196,16[B  ]| ~~ Consequently if I see a woman inclined for$4$ oracle I go  
024:196,17[B  ]| to$4$ her:  if she has no$2$ inclination I stay away.   
024:196,18[U  ]| ~~ But that$6#2$ girl has an inclination for$4$ oracle.   
024:196,19[B  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is the tantalising part of it:  I know she has.   
024:196,20[B  ]| It is very unfair of her to$9$ tantalise me.  I must go to$4$ where I am  
024:196,21[B  ]| sure of my ground.   
024:196,22[U  ]| ~~ But that$6#2$ costs money; and besides it is dangerous.  You  
024:196,23[U  ]| may get a dose that$6#1$ will$1$ last you your life.  I wonder you  
024:196,24[U  ]| have not got it before this.   
024:196,25[B  ]| ~~ Ah, yes, is not it a nuisance.  And yet I must go somewhere.  
024:196,26[U  ]| ~~ She is a human being, you know.  I can not say I  
024:196,27[U  ]| consider harlots as human beings.  \7Scortum\ and \7moechus\ are  
024:196,28[U  ]| both neuter nouns.   
024:196,29[U  ]| ~~ Of course a human being would be much better.  But  
024:196,30[U  ]| you could get her, if you liked.   
024:196,31[B  ]| ~~ How?   
024:196,32[U  ]| ~~ In$4$ marriage.   
024:196,33[B  ]| ~~ I am glad you reminded me of that$6#2$, 
024:196,33['  ]| said Stephen.  
024:196,33[B  ]| I was  
024:196,34[B  ]| almost forgetting it.   
024:196,35[U  ]| ~~ You may be sure she does not forget it, 
024:196,35['  ]| said Lynch, 
024:196,35[U  ]| or  
024:196,36[U  ]| let anyone else forget it either.   
024:197,01['  ]| Stephen sighed.   
024:197,02[B  ]| ~~ You remember in$4$ \The*Adoration*of*the*Magi\ ~~ 
024:196,02[Z  ]| ""When the  
024:197,03[Z  ]| immortals wish to$9$ overthrow the things that$6#1$ are today and  
024:197,04[Z  ]| to$9$ bring the things that$6#1$ were yesterday they have no-one to$9$  
024:197,05[Z  ]| help them except one whom the things that$6#1$ are today have  
024:197,06[Z  ]| cast out."" 
024:197,07[U  ]| ~~ Yes.   
024:197,08[B  ]| ~~ Who$6#2$ have I to$9$ help me except the woman in$4$ the black  
024:197,09[B  ]| straw hat?  And yet I wish to$9$ bring to$4$ the world the spiritual  
024:197,10[B  ]| renewal which$6#1$ the poet brings to$4$ it. ~~ No$7$, I have decided.   
024:197,11[B  ]| I will$1$ not see her any more.   
024:197,12[U  ]| ~~ The woman in$4$ the black straw hat?   
024:197,13[B  ]| ~~ No$7$, the virgin.   
024:197,14[U  ]| ~~ Still I think you are making a mistake, 
024:196,14['  ]| said Lynch, 
024:197,15['  ]| finishing his pint.   
024:197,16['  ]| One raw misty morning after Christmas Stephen was  
024:197,17['  ]| reading \Oreste\ in$4$ Father*Artifoni's bedroom.  He asked  
024:197,18['  ]| questions mechanically and listened to$4$ answers mechanically.   
024:197,19['  ]| He devised the following question and answer for$4$ the pseudo-classical  
024:197,20['  ]| catechism:   
024:197,21[B  ]| \Question\ ~~ What great truth do we learn from the \Libation-Pourers\  
024:197,22[B  ]| of Eschylus?   
024:197,23[B  ]| \Answer\ ~~ We learn from the \Libation-Pourers\ of Eschylus that$3$  
024:197,24[B  ]| in$4$ ancient Greece brothers and sisters took the  
024:197,25[B  ]| same size in$4$ boots.   
024:197,26['  ]| He looked wearily from the wretched Italian binding of his  
024:197,27['  ]| book towards the desolate gardens of S%*Stephen's*Green.   
024:197,28['  ]| Above him and beneath him and around him in$4$ little dark  
024:197,29['  ]| dusty rooms the intellectual heart of Ireland was throbbing  
024:197,30['  ]| ~~ young men were engaged in$4$ the pursuit of learning.  Above  
024:197,31['  ]| and beneath and around him were posted Jesuits to$9$ guide the  
024:197,32['  ]| young men amid the perilous ways of knowledge.  
024:197,32['  ]| The hand  
024:197,33['  ]| of Jesuit authority was laid firmly upon$4$ that$6#2$ intellectual  
024:197,34['  ]| heart and if, at times, it bore too heavily thereon what a  
024:198,01['  ]| little cross was that$6#2$!  
024:198,01['  ]| The young men were sensible that$3$ such  
024:198,02['  ]| severity had its reasons.  They understood it as an evidence  
024:198,03['  ]| of watchful care and interest, assured that$3$ in$4$ their future 
024:198,04['  ]| lives this care would continue, this interest be maintained:   
024:198,05['  ]| the exercise of authority might be sometimes (rarely)  
024:198,06['  ]| questionable, its intention, never.  Who$6#2$, therefore, readier  
024:198,07['  ]| than these young men to$9$ acknowledge gratefully the sallies 
024:198,08['  ]| of some genial professor or the surliness of some door-porter?   
024:198,09['  ]| Who$6#2$ more solicitous to$9$ cherish in$4$ every way and to$9$ advance  
024:198,10['  ]| in$4$ person the honour of Alma*Mater?   
024:198,11['  ]| The mortifying atmosphere of the college crept about  
024:198,12['  ]| Stephen's heart.  For$4$ his part he was at the difficult age, dispossessed  
024:198,13['  ]| and necessitous, sensible of all that$6#1$ was ignoble in$4$  
024:198,14['  ]| such manners, who$6#1$ in$4$ reverie, at least, had been acquainted 
024:198,15['  ]| with nobility.  As a remedy for$4$ so$5#1$ untoward a malady an  
024:198,16['  ]| earnest Jesuit was to$9$ prescribe a clerkship  
024:198,17['  ]| in$4$ Guinness's:  and doubtless the clerk-designate of a 
024:198,18['  ]| brewery would not have had scorn and pity only for$4$ an admirable  
024:198,19['  ]| community had it not been that$3$ he desired, in$4$ the language  
024:198,20['  ]| of the schoolmen, an arduous good.  Impossible that$3$ he  
024:198,21['  ]| should find his soul's sufficient good in$4$ societies for$4$ the encouragement  
024:198,22['  ]| of thought among laymen, or any other than  
024:198,23['  ]| bodily solace in$4$ the warm sodality, in$4$ the company of those  
024:198,24['  ]| foolish and grotesque virginities!  Impossible that$3$ a temperament  
024:198,25['  ]| ever trembling towards ecstasy should submit to$9$ 
024:198,26['  ]| acquiesce, that$3$ a soul should decree servitude for$4$ its portion  
024:198,27['  ]| over which$6#1$ the image of beauty had fallen as a mantle.   
024:198,28['  ]| The deadly chill of the atmosphere of the college paralysed  
024:198,29['  ]| Stephen's heart.  In$4$ a stupor of powerlessness he reviewed  
024:198,30['  ]| the plague of Catholicism.  
024:198,30[XB ]| He seemed to$9$ see the vermin  
024:198,31[XB ]| begotten in$4$ the catacombs in$4$ an age of sickness and cruelty  
024:198,32[XB ]| issuing forth upon$4$ the plains and mountains of Europe.   
024:198,33[XB ]| Like$4$ the plague of locusts described in$4$ Callista they seemed  
024:198,34[XB ]| to$9$ choke the rivers and fill the valleys up$5$.  They obscured 
024:199,01[XB ]| the sun.  Contempt of human nature, weakness, 
024:199,02[XB ]| nervous tremblings, fear of day and joy, distrust of man and  
024:199,03[XB ]| life, hemiplegia of the will$0$, beset the body burdened and  
024:199,04[XB ]| disaffected in$4$ its members by$4$ its black tyrannous lice.   
024:199,05[XB ]| Exultation of the mind before joyful beauty, exultation of  
024:199,06[XB ]| the body in$4$ free confederate labours, every natural impulse  
024:199,07[XB ]| towards health and wisdom and happiness had been corroded  
024:199,08[XB ]| by$4$ the pest of these vermin.  The spectacle of the  
024:199,09[XB ]| world in$4$ thrall filled him with the fire of courage.  He, at  
024:199,10[XB ]| least, though living at the farthest remove from the centre  
024:199,11[XB ]| of European culture, marooned on$4$ an island in$4$ the ocean, 
024:199,12[XB ]| though inheriting a will$0$ broken by$4$ doubt and a soul the  
024:199,13[XB ]| steadfastness of whose hate became as weak as water in$4$ siren  
024:199,14[XB ]| arms, would live his own life according to$4$ what he recognised  
024:199,15[XB ]| as the voice of a new humanity, active, unafraid and unashamed.   
024:199,16[XB ]|  
024:199,17['  ]| He followed his Italian lesson mechanically, feeling the  
024:199,18['  ]| unintermittent deadliness of the atmosphere of the college  
024:199,19['  ]| in$4$ his throat and lungs, obscuring his eyes and obfuscating  
024:199,20['  ]| his brain.  The little iron watch on$4$ the table had barely  
024:199,21['  ]| passed the half hour:  
024:199,21[XB ]| eleven o'clock seemed so$5#1$ far off.  
024:199,21['  ]| He  
024:199,22['  ]| had to$9$ open his Machiavelli and read out a paragraph until  
024:199,23['  ]| the teacher's ear was satisfied.  The dingy chronicle fell  
024:199,24['  ]| piecemeal from his lips, dull wooden words.  From time to$4$  
024:199,25['  ]| time he glanced up$5$ from the page to$9$ see the thick mouth of  
024:199,26['  ]| the priest correct his slovenly ""o""s now with a sudden harsh  
024:199,27['  ]| ejaculation of the vowel sound, now with a slow mute 
024:199,28['  ]| protrusion of the lips.  The little iron watch ticked on$5$ for$4$ another  
024:199,29['  ]| five minutes.  Then the teacher began to$9$ correct the exercise.   
024:199,30['  ]| Stephen gazed wearily out of the window, across the  
024:199,31['  ]| mist-laden gardens.  The air was webbed with water vapours  
024:199,32['  ]| and all the flower-beds and walks confronted the grey of  
024:199,33['  ]| the sky with a truculent sodden brown.  Mackintoshes and  
024:199,34['  ]| overcoats came along the walks or down the steps of the  
024:200,01['  ]| monument under their umbrellas or surmounted by$4$ a muffled  
024:200,02['  ]| human head.  The footpath inside the chains where Stephen  
024:200,03['  ]| had so$5#1$ often walked with his friends at night glistened like$4$ a  
024:200,04['  ]| grey mirror.  Stephen watched the feet pass along the 
024:200,05['  ]| polished surface:  he wondered if it was his moments of excessive  
024:200,06['  ]| vitality which$6#1$ cast back by$4$ revulsion on$4$ such hours of  
024:200,07['  ]| despair.  He felt that$3$ he was looking at the world with  
024:200,08['  ]| Cranly's eyes and still he continued gazing along the footpath.   
024:200,09['  ]|  
024:200,10[V  ]| ~~ You cannot say, 
024:200,10['  ]| said the teacher running his pencil  
024:200,11['  ]| under a phrase.  
024:200,11[V  ]| It is not Italian.   
024:200,12['  ]| Stephen withdrew his eyes from the window suddenly  
024:200,13['  ]| and stood up$5$:   
024:200,14[B  ]| ~~ Will$1$ you please excuse me, sir.  I am sorry I forgot to$9$  
024:200,15[B  ]| tell you that$3$ today I must go away earlier. ~~ I am afraid I  
024:200,16[B  ]| shall be late, he added looking at the watch.  Will$1$ you excuse  
024:200,17[B  ]| me?   
024:200,18[V  ]| ~~ You have an appointment now?   
024:200,19[B  ]| ~~ Yes, I nearly forgot.  You must excuse me for$4$ today ~~  
024:200,20[V  ]| ~~ Certainly, certainly.  You can go now.   
024:200,21[B  ]| ~~ Thanks.  I am afraid I ~~  
024:200,22[V  ]| ~~ Certainly, certainly.   
024:200,23['  ]| With a flying hand for$4$ the banisters he ran down the stairs, 
024:200,24['  ]| taking five steps at a time.  He struggled into his raincoat  
024:200,25['  ]| in$4$ the hall and emerged panting and half-dressed on$5$ to$4$ the  
024:200,26['  ]| front steps.  He ran out into the middle of the muddy roadway  
024:200,27['  ]| and peered through the dull light towards the eastern  
024:200,28['  ]| side of the square.  He walked on$5$ swiftly in$4$ the middle of the  
024:200,29['  ]| road with his eyes fixed on$4$ the same point and then came in$5$  
024:200,30['  ]| again on$4$ the footpath and began to$9$ run.  When he reached 
024:200,31['  ]| the corner of Earlsfort*Terrace he stopped running and  
024:200,32['  ]| turning to$4$ the right walked on$5$ again swiftly.  Outside of the  
024:200,33['  ]| University he came alongside of the object which$6#1$ he had  
024:200,34['  ]| been pursuing.   
024:200,35[B  ]| ~~ Good morning!   
024:200,36[D  ]| ~~ Stephen!  ~~ Have you been running?   
024:201,01[B  ]| ~~ Yes.   
024:201,02[D  ]| ~~ Where are you going to$4$?   
024:201,03[B  ]| ~~ I saw you from the window.   
024:201,04[D  ]| ~~ What window?   
024:201,05[B  ]| ~~ In$4$ the college.  Where are you going?   
024:201,06[D  ]| ~~ I am going to$4$ Leeson*Park.   
024:201,07[B  ]| ~~ This way, 
024:201,07['  ]| said Stephen taking her arm.   
024:201,08['  ]| She seemed as if she were about to$9$ resent such an act in$4$  
024:201,09['  ]| broad daylight but after a quick glance of remonstrance  
024:201,10['  ]| allowed him to$9$ escort her.  Stephen held her arm tightly to$4$  
024:201,11['  ]| his side and discomposed her somewhat by$4$ speaking very  
024:201,12['  ]| close to$4$ her face.  Her face was glistening with mist and it  
024:201,13['  ]| had begun to$9$ glow in$4$ answer to$4$ his excited and passionate  
024:201,14['  ]| manner.   
024:201,15[D  ]| ~~ Where did you see me?   
024:201,16[B  ]| ~~ I was in$4$ the window at my Italian lesson with Father*Artifoni.   
024:201,17[B  ]| I saw you come through the Green and cross the  
024:201,18[B  ]| road.   
024:201,19[D  ]| ~~ Did you?   
024:201,20[B  ]| ~~ So$3$ I jumped up$5$ at once and asked him to$9$ excuse me as I  
024:201,21[B  ]| had to$9$ keep an appointment and flew downstairs and out after  
024:201,22[B  ]| you.   
024:201,23['  ]| The colour had begun to$9$ deepen very much on$4$ her cheek  
024:201,24['  ]| and it was plain that$3$ she was trying to$9$ appear quite at her ease.   
024:201,25['  ]| At first she had been flattered but now she ws becoming a  
024:201,26['  ]| little nervous.  She laughed nervously when he told her  
024:201,27['  ]| that$3$ he had run out after her.   
024:201,28[D  ]| ~~ Goodness!  Why did you do that$6#2$?   
024:201,29['  ]| Stephen did not answer but he pressed her arm fiercely  
024:201,30['  ]| to$4$ his side.  At the end of the terrace she turned into a side  
024:201,31['  ]| street instinctively.  Here she walked more slowly.  The street  
024:201,32['  ]| was very quiet and they both lowered their voices.   
024:201,33[D  ]| ~~ How did you know it was I?  
024:201,33['  ]| she said.  
024:201,33[D  ]| You must have  
024:201,34[D  ]| good sight.   
024:201,35[B  ]| ~~ I was gazing out of the window, 
024:201,35['  ]| he answered, 
024:201,35[B  ]| looking  
024:201,36[B  ]| at the sky and the Green.  Lord God!  I felt so$5#1$ full of despair.   
024:202,01[B  ]| Sometimes I am taken that$6#2$ way!  I live such a strange life ~~  
024:202,02[B  ]| without help or sympathy from anyone.  Sometimes I am  
024:202,03[B  ]| afraid of myself.  I call those people in$4$ the college not men but  
024:202,04[B  ]| vegatables. ~~ Then while I was cursing my own character  
024:202,05[B  ]| I saw you.   
024:202,06[D  ]| ~~ Yes?  
024:202,06['  ]| she said looking at the disorderly figure beside her  
024:202,07['  ]| out of her large oval eyes.   
024:202,08[B  ]| ~~ You know I was delighted to$9$ see you.  I had to$9$ jump up$5$  
024:202,09[B  ]| and rush out.  I could not have sat there another minute. ~~  
024:202,10[B  ]| I said, Here is a human creature at last. ~~ I can not tell you  
024:202,11[B  ]| how delighted I was.   
024:202,12[D  ]| ~~ You strange boy!  
024:202,12['  ]| she said.  
024:202,12[D  ]| You must not go running  
024:202,13[D  ]| about like$4$ that$6#2$:  You must have more sense.   
024:202,14[B  ]| ~~ Emma!  
024:202,14['  ]| cried Stephen, 
024:202,14[B  ]| do not start talking to$4$ me like$4$ that$6#2$  
024:202,15[B  ]| today.  I know you want to$9$ be very sensible.  But you and I  
024:202,16[B  ]| ~~ we are both young, are not we?   
024:202,17[D  ]| ~~ Yes, Stephen.   
024:202,18[B  ]| ~~ Very good, then.  If we are young we feel happy.  We  
024:202,19[B  ]| feel full of desire.   
024:202,20[D  ]| ~~ Desire?   
024:202,21[B  ]| ~~ Do you know when I saw you ~~  
024:202,22[D  ]| ~~ Yes, how did you know me?   
024:202,23[B  ]| ~~ I knew the stride.   
024:202,24[D  ]| ~~ Stride!   
024:202,25[B  ]| ~~ Do you know Emma, even from my window I could see  
024:202,26[B  ]| your hips moving inside your waterproof?  I saw a young  
024:202,27[B  ]| woman walking proudly through the decayed city.  Yes, 
024:202,28[B  ]| that$6#2$ is the way you walk:  You are proud of being young and  
024:202,29[B  ]| proud of being a woman.  Do you know when I caught sight  
024:202,30[B  ]| of you from my window ~~ do you know what I felt?   
024:202,31['  ]| There was no$2$ use in$4$ her essaying indifference now.  Her  
024:202,32['  ]| cheeks were covered with a persistent flush and her eyes  
024:202,33['  ]| shone like$4$ gems.  She gazed straight before her and her  
024:202,34['  ]| breath began to$9$ be agitated.  They stood together in$4$ the  
024:203,01['  ]| deserted street and he continued speaking, a certain ingenuous  
024:203,02['  ]| disattachment guiding his excited passion.   
024:203,03[B  ]| ~~ I felt that$3$ I longed to$9$ hold you in$4$ my arms ~~ your body.   
024:203,04[B  ]| I longed for$4$ you to$9$ take me in$4$ your arms.  That$6#2$ is all ~~  
024:203,05[B  ]| Then I thought I would run after you and say that$6#2$ to$4$ you ~~  
024:203,06[B  ]| Just to$9$ live one night together, Emma, and then to$9$ say  
024:203,07[B  ]| goodbye in$4$ the morning and never to$9$ see each other again!   
024:203,08[B  ]| There is no$2$ such thing as love in$4$ the world:  only people are  
024:203,09[B  ]| young ~~  
024:203,10['  ]| She tried to$9$ take her arm away from his and murmured as  
024:203,11['  ]| if she were repeating from memory:   
024:203,12[D  ]| ~~ You are mad, Stephen.   
024:203,13['  ]| Stephen let go her arm and took her hand in$4$ his, saying:   
024:203,14[B  ]| ~~ Goodbye, Emma ~~ I felt that$3$ I wanted to$9$ say that$6#2$ to$4$  
024:203,15[B  ]| you for$4$ my own sake but if I stand here in$4$ this stupid street  
024:203,16[B  ]| beside you for$4$ much longer I shall begin to$9$ say more ~~  
024:203,17[B  ]| You say I am mad because I do not bargain with you or say 
024:203,18[B  ]| I love you or swear to$4$ you.  But I believe you hear my words  
024:203,19[B  ]| and understand me, do not you?   
024:203,20[D  ]| ~~ I do not understand you indeed, 
024:203,20['  ]| she answered with a  
024:203,21['  ]| touch of anger.   
024:203,22[B  ]| ~~ I will$1$ give you a chance, 
024:203,22['  ]| said Stephen, pressing her  
024:203,23['  ]| hand close in$4$ his two hands.  
024:203,23[B  ]| Tonight when you are going to$4$  
024:203,24[B  ]| bed remember me and go to$4$ your window.  I will$1$ be in$4$ the  
024:203,25[B  ]| garden.  Open the window and call my name and ask me  
024:203,26[B  ]| to$9$ come in$5$.  Then come down and let me in$5$.  We will$1$ live  
024:203,27[B  ]| one night together ~~ one night, Emma, alone together and  
024:203,28[B  ]| in$4$ the morning we will$1$ say goodbye.   
024:203,29[D  ]| ~~ Let go my hand, please, 
024:203,29['  ]| she said pulling her hand away  
024:203,30['  ]| from him.  
024:203,30[D  ]| If I had known it was for$4$ this mad talk ~~  
024:203,31[D  ]| You must not speak to$4$ me any more, she said moving on$5$ a  
024:203,32[D  ]| pace or two and plucking her waterproof out of his reach.   
024:203,33[D  ]| Who$6#2$ do you think I am that$3$ you can speak to$4$ me like$4$  
024:203,34[D  ]| that$6#2$?   
024:203,35[B  ]| ~~ It is no$2$ insult, 
024:203,35['  ]| said Stephen colouring suddenly as the  
024:203,36['  ]| reverse of the image struck him, 
024:203,36[B  ]| for$4$ a man to$9$ ask a woman  
024:204,01[B  ]| what I have asked you.  You are annoyed at something else  
024:204,02[B  ]| not at that$6#2$.   
024:204,03[D  ]| ~~ You are mad, I think, 
024:204,03['  ]| she said, brushing past him  
024:204,04['  ]| swiftly without taking any notice of his salute.  She did not  
024:204,05['  ]| go quickly enough, however, to$9$ hide the tears that$6#1$ were in$4$  
024:204,06['  ]| her eyes and he, surprised to$9$ see them and wondering at  
024:204,07['  ]| their cause, forgot to$9$ say the goodbye that$6#1$ was on$4$ his lips.   
024:204,08['  ]| As he watched her walk onward swiftly with her head  
024:204,09['  ]| slightly bowed he seemed to$9$ feel her soul and his falling 
024:204,10['  ]| asunder swiftly and for*ever after an instant of all but union.   
025:205,01['  ]| LYNCH chuckled very much over this adventure.  He said  
025:205,02['  ]| it was the most original attempt at seduction of which$6#1$ he had  
025:205,03['  ]| ever heard, so$5#1$ original that$3$ ~~  
025:205,04[U  ]| ~~ You know, 
025:205,04['  ]| he said, 
025:205,04[U  ]| I must tell you that$3$ to$4$ the ordinary  
025:205,05[U  ]| intelligence ~~  
025:205,06[B  ]| ~~ To$4$ you, that$6#2$ is?   
025:205,07[U  ]| ~~ To$4$ the ordinary intelligence it looks as if you had taken  
025:205,08[U  ]| leave of your senses for$4$ the time being.   
025:205,09['  ]| Stephen stared fixedly at his toes:  they were sitting on$4$ a  
025:205,10['  ]| bench in$4$ the Green.   
025:205,11[B  ]| ~~ It was the best I could do, 
025:205,11['  ]| he said.   
025:205,12[U  ]| ~~ A very bad best, in$4$ my opinion.  No$2$ girl with an ounce  
025:205,13[U  ]| of brains would listen to$4$ you.  That$6#2$ is not the way to$9$ go about  
025:205,14[U  ]| it, man.  You run out suddenly after her, come up$5$ sweating  
025:205,15[U  ]| and puffing and say ""Let us lie together"".  Did you mean it as  
025:205,16[U  ]| a joke?   
025:205,17[B  ]| ~~ No$7$, I was quite serious.  I thought she might ~~ In$4$  
025:205,18[B  ]| fact I do not know what I thought.  I saw her, as I told you, 
025:205,19[B  ]| and I ran after her and said what was in$4$ my mind.  We are  
025:205,20[B  ]| friends for$4$ a long time ~~ Now it seems I have acted like$4$ a  
025:205,21[B  ]| lunatic.   
025:205,22[U  ]| ~~ O, no$7$, 
025:205,22['  ]| said Lynch, expanding his chest, 
025:205,22[U  ]| not like$4$ a lunatic  
025:205,23[U  ]| but you went about the affair so$5#1$ strangely.   
025:205,24[B  ]| ~~ If I had run after her and proposed to$4$ her, proposed  
025:205,25[B  ]| marriage that$6#2$ is, you would not say I had acted strangely.   
025:205,26[U  ]| ~~ Even in$4$ that$6#2$ case ~~  
025:205,27[B  ]| ~~ No$7$, no$7$, do not deceive yourself, you would not.  You  
025:205,28[B  ]| would find an excuse for$4$ me.   
025:205,29[U  ]| ~~ Well, you see, there is something relatively sane about  
025:205,30[U  ]| marriage, is not there?   
025:206,01[B  ]| ~~ For$4$ a man of your ordinary intelligence there may be:   
025:206,02[B  ]| not for$4$ me.  Have you ever read the Form*of*Solemnization*of*Marriage  
025:206,03[B  ]| in$4$ the Book*of*Common*Prayer?   
025:206,04[U  ]| ~~ Never.   
025:206,05[B  ]| ~~ You should then.  Your everyday life is Protestant:  you  
025:206,06[B  ]| show yourself a Catholic only when you discuss.  Well, to$4$  
025:206,07[B  ]| me that$6#2$ ceremony is not acceptable:  it is not so$5#1$ sane as you  
025:206,08[B  ]| imagine.  A man who$6#1$ swears before the world to$9$ love a  
025:206,09[B  ]| woman till death part him and her is sane neither in$4$ the  
025:206,10[B  ]| opinion of the philosopher who$6#1$ understands what mutability  
025:206,11[B  ]| is nor in$4$ the opinion of the man of the world who$6#1$  
025:206,12[B  ]| understands that$3$ it is safer to$9$ be a witness than an actor in$4$  
025:206,13[B  ]| such affairs.  A man who$6#1$ swears to$9$ do something which$6#1$ it is  
025:206,14[B  ]| not in$4$ his power to$9$ do is not accounted a sane man.  For$4$ my  
025:206,15[B  ]| part I do not believe that$3$ there was ever a moment of passion  
025:206,16[B  ]| so$5#1$ fierce and energetic that$3$ it warranted a man in$4$  
025:206,17[B  ]| saying ""I could love you for*ever"" to$4$ the adored object.   
025:206,18[B  ]| Please understand the importance of Goethe ~~  
025:206,19[U  ]| ~~ Still marriage is a custom.  To$9$ follow a custom is a  
025:206,20[U  ]| mark of sanity.   
025:206,21[B  ]| ~~ It is a mark of ordinariness.  I admit that$3$ many ordinary  
025:206,22[B  ]| people are sane just as I know that$3$ many ordinary people  
025:206,23[B  ]| have delusions.  But a capacity for$4$ being deceived by$4$ others  
025:206,24[B  ]| or by$4$ oneself cannot be said to$9$ constitute the essential part  
025:206,25[B  ]| of sanity.  It is rather a question whether a man does encourage  
025:206,26[B  ]| an insane conditon in$4$ himself by$4$ deceiving himself  
025:206,27[B  ]| voluntarily or allowing himself to$9$ be deceived by$4$ others  
025:206,28[B  ]| voluntarily.   
025:206,29[U  ]| ~~ Anyhow your move was not diplomatic.   
025:206,30[B  ]| ~~ We all know that$6#2$, 
025:206,30['  ]| said Stephen standing up$5$, 
025:206,30[B  ]| but all  
025:206,31[B  ]| genuine diplomacy is with a view to$4$ some particularly  
025:206,32[B  ]| excellent plum.  What plum do you think Cranly is likely  
025:206,33[B  ]| to$9$ gain by$4$ a diplomacy which$6#1$ is highly meritorious in$4$ itself?   
025:206,34[B  ]| What plum would I be likely to$9$ get by$4$ proposing a diplomatic  
025:206,35[B  ]| marriage except a partner ""to$9$ behold my chaste conversation, 
025:206,36[B  ]| coupled with fear"" ~~ eh?   
025:207,01[U  ]| ~~ The juice of the fruit, 
025:207,01['  ]| answered Lynch standing up$5$ in$4$  
025:207,02['  ]| his turn and looking very thirsty and tired.   
025:207,03[B  ]| ~~ The woman herself, you mean?   
025:207,04[U  ]| ~~ Exactly.   
025:207,05['  ]| Stephen walked along the path without saying anything  
025:207,06['  ]| for$4$ about twenty yards:  then he said:   
025:207,07[B  ]| ~~ I like$1$ a woman to$9$ give herself.  I like$1$ to$9$ receive ~~  
025:207,08[B  ]| These people count it a sin to$9$ sell holy things for$4$ money.   
025:207,09[B  ]| But surely what they call the temple of the Holy*Ghost  
025:207,10[B  ]| should not be bargained for$5$!  Is not that$6#2$ simony?   
025:207,11[U  ]| ~~ You want to$9$ sell your verses, do not you, 
025:207,11['  ]| said Lynch  
025:207,12['  ]| abruptly, 
025:207,12[U  ]| and to$4$ a public you say you despise?   
025:207,13[B  ]| ~~ I do not want to$9$ sell my poetical mind to$4$ the public.  I  
025:207,14[B  ]| expect reward from the public for$4$ my verses because I  
025:207,15[B  ]| believe my verses are to$9$ be numbered among the spiritual  
025:207,16[B  ]| assets of the State.  That$6#2$ is not a simoniacal exchange.  I do  
025:207,17[B  ]| not sell what Glynn calls the divine afflatus:  I do not swear  
025:207,18[B  ]| to$9$ love, honour and obey the public until my dying day ~~  
025:207,19[B  ]| do I?  A woman's body is a corporal asset of the State:  if  
025:207,20[B  ]| she traffic with it she must sell it either as a harlot or as a  
025:207,21[B  ]| married woman or as a working celibate or as a mistress.   
025:207,22[B  ]| But a woman is (incidentally) a human being and a human 
025:207,23[B  ]| being's love and freedom is not a spiritual asset of the State.   
025:207,24[B  ]| Can the State buy and sell electricity?  It is not possible.   
025:207,25[B  ]| Simony is monstrous because it revolts our notion of what is  
025:207,26[B  ]| humanly possible.  A human being can exert freedom to$9$  
025:207,27[B  ]| produce or accept or love to$9$ procreate or to$9$ satisfy.  Love  
025:207,28[B  ]| gives and freedom takes.  The woman in$4$ the black straw  
025:207,29[B  ]| hat gave something before she sold her body to$4$ the State;  
025:207,30[B  ]| Emma will$1$ sell herself to$4$ the State but give nothing.   
025:207,31[U  ]| ~~ You know even if you had proposed to$9$ buy her decently  
025:207,32[U  ]| ~~ for$4$ State purposes ~~ 
025:207,32['  ]| said Lynch, kicking his toes moodily  
025:207,33['  ]| at the gravel, 
025:207,33[U  ]| she would not have sold at the price.   
025:207,34[B  ]| ~~ You think not.  Not even if I ~~  
025:207,35[U  ]| ~~ Not likely, 
025:207,35['  ]| said the other definitely.  
025:207,35[U  ]| What a damn fool  
025:207,36[U  ]| she is!   
025:208,01['  ]| Stephen blushed ingenuously:   
025:208,02[B  ]| ~~ You have such a nice way of putting things, 
025:208,02['  ]| he said.   
025:208,03['  ]| The next time Stephen met Emma in$4$ the street she did not  
025:208,04['  ]| salute him.  He did not tell the incident to$4$ anyone but  
025:208,05['  ]| Lynch.  From Cranly he expected scant sympathy and he  
025:208,06['  ]| was deterred from speaking of it to$4$ Maurice because he had  
025:208,07['  ]| still the elder brother's wish to$9$ appear successful.  The  
025:208,08['  ]| conversation with Lynch had revealed to$4$ him with distressing  
025:208,09['  ]| effect the commonplace side of the adventure.  He asked 
025:208,10['  ]| himself seriously and often had he expected that$3$ she would  
025:208,11['  ]| have answered ""Yes"" to$4$ his proposal.  His mind, he thought, 
025:208,12['  ]| must have been somewhat unbalanced that$6#2$ morning.  And  
025:208,13['  ]| yet when he reconsidered his own defence of his conduct he  
025:208,14['  ]| found it just.  The economic aspect of the affair did not  
025:208,15['  ]| present itself to$4$ him very vividly and, indeed, was only  
025:208,16['  ]| vivid enough to$9$ make him deplore the fact that$3$ the solution  
025:208,17['  ]| of moral problems should be so$5#1$ hopelessly entangled with  
025:208,18['  ]| merely material considerations.  He was not sufficiently  
025:208,19['  ]| doctrinaire to$9$ wish to$9$ have his theory put to$4$ the test by$4$ a  
025:208,20['  ]| general revolution of society but he could not  
025:208,21['  ]| believe that$3$ his theory was utterly impracticable.  The  
025:208,22['  ]| Roman*Catholic notion that$3$ a man should be unswervingly  
025:208,23['  ]| continent from his boyhood and then be permitted to$9$ achieve  
025:208,24['  ]| his male nature, having first satisfied the Church as to$4$ his  
025:208,25['  ]| orthodoxy, financial condition, prospects and general  
025:208,26['  ]| intentions, and having sworn before witnesses to$9$ love his wife  
025:208,27['  ]| for*ever whether he loved her or not and to$9$ beget children  
025:208,28['  ]| for$4$ the kingdom of heaven in$4$ such manner as the Church  
025:208,29['  ]| approved of ~~ this notion seemed to$4$ him by$4$ no$2$ means  
025:208,30['  ]| satisfactory.   
025:208,31['  ]| During the train of these reflections the Church sent an  
025:208,32['  ]| embassy of nimble pleaders into his ears.  These ambassadors  
025:208,33['  ]| were of all grades and of all types of culture.  They addressed  
025:208,34['  ]| every side of his nature in$4$ turn.  He was a young man with  
025:208,35['  ]| a doubtful future and an unusual character:  this was the first  
025:208,36['  ]| salient fact.  The ambassadors met it without undue  
025:209,01['  ]| pretence or haste.  
025:209,01[YS ]| They stated that$3$ it was in$4$ their power  
025:209,02[YS ]| to$9$ make smooth many of the ways which$6#1$ promised to$9$ be  
025:209,03[YS ]| rough and, by$4$ diminishing the hardships of the material  
025:209,04[YS ]| nature, to$9$ allow the unusual character scope and ease to$9$  
025:209,05[YS ]| develop and approve itself.
025:209,05[YS ]| He had deplored the entanglement  
025:209,06[YS ]| of merely material considerations in$4$ a problem of  
025:209,07[YS ]| morals and here, at least, was a warrant that$3$ if he chose to$9$  
025:209,08[YS ]| give ear to$4$ the pleadings of the embassy the moral problem 
025:209,09[YS ]| in$4$ his case would be set on$4$ the road of solving itself free from  
025:209,10[YS ]| minor and unworthier cares.  He had what he called
025:209,10[YS ]| a  
025:209,11[YS ]| ""modern"" reluctance to$9$ give pledges: 
025:209,11[YS ]| no$2$ pledges were required.   
025:209,12[YS ]| If at the end of five years he still persevered in$4$ his obduracy 
025:209,13[YS ]| of heart he could still seize upon$4$ his individual liberty without  
025:209,14[YS ]| fear of being called oath-breaker therefor.  The practice  
025:209,15[YS ]| of due consideration was an old one and a wise one.  He  
025:209,16[YS ]| himself was the greatest sceptic concerning the perfervid 
025:209,17[YS ]| enthusiasms of the patriots.  As an artist he had nothing but  
025:209,18[YS ]| contempt for$4$ a work which$6#1$ had arisen out of any but the  
025:209,19[YS ]| most stable mood of the mind.  Was it possible that$3$ he would  
025:209,20[YS ]| exercise less rigour on$4$ his life than he desired to$9$ exercise on$4$ 
025:209,21[YS ]| his art?  How could he be guilty of such foolishness, of such  
025:209,22[YS ]| cynical subordination of the actual to$4$ the abstract, if he  
025:209,23[YS ]| honestly believed that$3$ an institution is to$9$ be accounted  
025:209,24[YS ]| valuable in$4$ proportion to$4$ its nearness to$4$ some actual human  
025:209,25[YS ]| need or energy and that$3$ the epithet ""vivisective"" should be  
025:209,26[YS ]| applied to$4$ the modern spirit as distinguished from the ancient  
025:209,27[YS ]| or category-burdened spirit.  He desired for$4$ himself the life  
025:209,28[YS ]| of an artist. 
025:209,28[YS ]| Well!  And he feared that$3$ the Church would 
025:209,29[YS ]| obstruct his desire.  But, during the formulation of his artistic  
025:209,30[YS ]| creed, had he not found item after item upheld for$4$ him in$4$  
025:209,31[YS ]| advance by$4$ the greatest and most orthodox doctor of the  
025:209,32[YS ]| Church and was it anything but vanity which$6#1$ urged him to$9$  
025:209,33[YS ]| seek out the thorny crown of the heretic while the entire  
025:209,34[YS ]| theory, in$4$ accordance with which$6#1$ his entire artistic life  
025:209,35[YS ]| was shaped, arose most conveniently for$4$ his purpose out of  
025:209,36[YS ]| the mass of Catholic theology?  He could not accept wholeheartedly 
025:210,01[YS ]| the offers of Protestant belief:  he knew that$3$ the  
025:210,02[YS ]| liberty it boasted of was often only the liberty to$9$ be slovenly  
025:210,03[YS ]| in$4$ thought and amorphous in$4$ ritual.  No-one, not the most  
025:210,04[YS ]| rabid enemy of the Church, could accuse it of being slovenly  
025:210,05[YS ]| in$4$ thought:  the subtlety of its disquisitions had become a  
025:210,06[YS ]| byword with demagogues.  No-one again could accuse the  
025:210,07[YS ]| Church of being amorphous in$4$ ritual.  The Puritan, the  
025:210,08[YS ]| Calvinist, the Lutheran were inimical to$4$ art and to$4$ exuberant  
025:210,09[YS ]| beauty:  the Catholic was the friend of him who$6#1$ professed  
025:210,10[YS ]| to$9$ interpret of divulge the beautiful.  Could he assert that$3$ his  
025:210,11[YS ]| own aristocratic intelligence and passion for$4$ a supremely  
025:210,12[YS ]| satisfying order in$4$ all the fervous of artistic creation were  
025:210,13[YS ]| not purely Catholic qualities?  
025:210,13['  ]| The ambassadors did not  
025:210,14['  ]| labour this point.   
025:210,15[S  ]| Besides, 
025:210,15['  ]| they said, 
025:210,15[S  ]| it is a mark of the modern spirit to$9$ be  
025:210,16[S  ]| shy in$4$ the presence of all absolute statements.  However sure  
025:210,17[S  ]| you may be now of the reasonableness of your convictions  
025:210,18[S  ]| you cannot be sure that$3$ you will$1$ always think them reasonable.   
025:210,19[S  ]| If you sincerely regard a pledge as an infringement of human  
025:210,20[S  ]| liberty you cannot pledge yourself against following a reactionary  
025:210,21[S  ]| impulse which$6#1$ is certain to$9$ overtake you some day.   
025:210,22[S  ]| You cannot leave out of sight the possibility that$3$ your views  
025:210,23[S  ]| of the world will$1$ change to$4$ such an extent that$3$ you will$1$ regard  
025:210,24[S  ]| all interference with the course of affairs as the part of such  
025:210,25[S  ]| as can still be deluded by$4$ hope.  In$4$ that$6#2$ case what will$1$  
025:210,26[S  ]| have become of your life?  You will$1$ have wasted it in$4$ efforts to$9$  
025:210,27[S  ]| save people who$6#1$ have neither inclination nor apititude for$4$  
025:210,28[S  ]| freedom.  You believe in$4$ an aristocracy:  believe also in$4$  
025:210,29[S  ]| eminence of the aristocratic class and in$4$ the order of society  
025:210,30[S  ]| which$6#1$ secures that$6#2$ eminence.  Do you imagine that$3$ manners  
025:210,31[S  ]| will$1$ become less ignoble, intellectual and artistic endeavour  
025:210,32[S  ]| less conditioned, if the ignorant, enthusiastic, spiritual  
025:210,33[S  ]| slovens whom we have subjected subject us?  Not one of those  
025:210,34[S  ]| slovens understands your aims as an artist or wants your  
025:210,35[S  ]| sympathy:  we, on$4$ the contrary, understand your aims and  
025:210,36[S  ]| often are in$4$ sympathy with them and we solicit your support  
025:211,01[S  ]| and consider your comradeship an honour.  You are fond  
025:211,02[S  ]| of saying that$3$ the Absolute is dead.  If that$6#2$ be so$5#2$ it is possible  
025:211,03[S  ]| that$3$ we are all wrong and if once you accept that$6#2$ as a possibility  
025:211,04[S  ]| what remains for$4$ you but an intellectual disdain.   
025:211,05[S  ]| With us you can exercise your contemptuous faculties when  
025:211,06[S  ]| you are recognised as one of the patrician order and you will$1$  
025:211,07[S  ]| not even be obliged to$9$ grant a truce to$4$ the very doctrines, 
025:211,08[S  ]| the success of which$6#1$ in$4$ the world has secured you your  
025:211,09[S  ]| patricianship.  Make one with us.  Your life will$1$ be insured  
025:211,10[S  ]| from grosser troubles, your art will$1$ be safeguarded against  
025:211,11[S  ]| the intrusions of revolutionary notions which$6#1$ no$2$ artist of 
025:211,12[S  ]| whom tells us has ever made himself champion.   
025:211,13[S  ]| Make one with us, on$4$ equal terms.  In$4$ temper and in$4$ mind  
025:211,14[S  ]| you are still a Catholic.  Catholicism is in$4$ your blood.   
025:211,15[S  ]| Living in$4$ an age which$6#1$ professes to$9$ have discovered evolution, 
025:211,16[S  ]| can you be fatuous enough to$9$ think that$3$ simply by$4$  
025:211,17[S  ]| being wrong-headed you can recreate entirely your mind  
025:211,18[S  ]| and temper or can clear your blood of what you may call  
025:211,19[S  ]| the Catholic infection?  A revolution such as you desire is  
025:211,20[S  ]| not brought about by$4$ violence but gradually:  and, within  
025:211,21[S  ]| the Church you have an opportunity of beginning your  
025:211,22[S  ]| revolution in$4$ a rational manner.  You can sow the seeds  
025:211,23[S  ]| in$4$ the careful furrows entrusted to$4$ you and if your seed is  
025:211,24[S  ]| good it will$1$ prosper.  But by$4$ going into the unnecessary 
025:211,25[S  ]| wilderness and scattering your seed broadcast on$4$ all soils  
025:211,26[S  ]| what harvest will$1$ you have?  Everything seems to$9$ urge you  
025:211,27[S  ]| to$4$ a course of moderation, of forbearance, and the purified  
025:211,28[S  ]| will$0$ can surely display itself quite as well in$4$ acceptance as in$4$  
025:211,29[S  ]| rejection.  The trees do not resent autumn nor does any  
025:211,30[S  ]| exemplary thing in$4$ nature resent its limitations.  Neither  
025:211,31[S  ]| then do you resent the limitations of compromise.   
025:211,32['  ]| These pleadings which$6#1$ Stephen so$5#1$ punctiliously heard out  
025:211,33['  ]| were supplemented by$4$ Cranly's influence.  Neither of the  
025:211,34['  ]| young men was studying for$4$ his examination 
025:211,35['  ]| and they spent their evenings as usual in$4$ aimless walking  
025:211,36['  ]| and talking.  Their walks and talks led nowhere  
025:212,01['  ]| because whenever anything definite threatened to$9$ make its appearance  
025:212,02['  ]| in$4$ their talk Cranly promptly sought the company of  
025:212,03['  ]| some of his chosen companions.  The billiard-room of the  
025:212,04['  ]| Adelphi*Hotel was now a favourite resort of the two friends.   
025:212,05['  ]| After ten o'clock every night they went into the billiard-room.   
025:212,06['  ]| It was a big room well furnished with ill-kept  
025:212,07['  ]| inelegant tables and poorly furnished with players.  Cranly  
025:212,08['  ]| played protracted matches with one or other of his companions  
025:212,09['  ]| while Stephen sat on$4$ the seat that$6#1$ ran alongside the  
025:212,10['  ]| table.  A game of fifty cost sixpence which$6#1$ was duly paid by$4$  
025:212,11['  ]| each of the players in$4$ equal parts, Cranly producing his  
025:212,12['  ]| threepence very deliberately from a leather heart-shaped  
025:212,13['  ]| purse.  The players sometimes sent their balls on$5$ to$4$ the floor  
025:212,14['  ]| and Cranly occasionally swore at his flamin' cue.  There  
025:212,15['  ]| was a bar attached to$4$ the billiard-room.  In$4$ the bar was a  
025:212,16['  ]| stout barmaid who$6#1$ wore badly-made stays, served bottles of  
025:212,17['  ]| stout with her head on$4$ one side, and conversed in$4$ an English  
025:212,18['  ]| accent with her customers about the theatrical companies  
025:212,19['  ]| of the different theatres.  Her customers were young men  
025:212,20['  ]| who$6#1$ carried their hats sideways far back on$4$ their heads and  
025:212,21['  ]| walked with their feet far apart.  Their trousers were usually  
025:212,22['  ]| turned up$5$ high above their tan boots.  One of the regular  
025:212,23['  ]| customers at this bar (though he did not mix with the young  
025:212,24['  ]| gentlemen mentioned above) was a friend of Cranly's, a 
025:212,25['  ]| young man who$6#1$ was a clerk in$4$ the Agricultural*Board*Office.   
025:212,26['  ]| He was a bandy-legged little man who$6#1$ spoke very little when  
025:212,27['  ]| he was sober but very much when he was drunk.  When he  
025:212,28['  ]| was sober he was very orderly but his tipsiness, signalled by$4$ 
025:212,29['  ]| a dark-coloured ooze upon$4$ his pock-marked face, was boastful  
025:212,30['  ]| and disorderly.  One night he engaged in$4$ a fierce argument  
025:212,31['  ]| about Tim*Healy with a thickset medical student who$6#1$ 
025:212,32['  ]| had a taste for$4$ the art of self-defence.  The argument was 
025:212,33['  ]| nearly entirely one-sided inasmuch as the medical student's 
025:212,34['  ]| contributions were derisive laughs and such remarks as 
025:212,34[X  ]| ""Is  
025:212,35[X  ]| he handy with the mits?"" ""Can he put up$5$ his props?""  ""Is he  
025:212,36[X  ]| a good man with the mits?""  
025:212,36['  ]| At last the clerk from the Agricultural*Board*Office  
025:213,01['  ]| called the medical student a dirty name  
025:213,02['  ]| whereupon the medical student immediately knocked down  
025:213,03['  ]| all the drinks on$4$ the counter in$4$ his efforts to$9$ ""smash"" the  
025:213,04['  ]| offender.  The barmaid ran screaming for$4$ the proprietor, the  
025:213,05['  ]| medical student was soothed and restrained by$4$ considerate 
025:213,06['  ]| friends and the offender was escorted out by$4$ Cranly and  
025:213,07['  ]| Stephen and a few others.  At first he lamented that$3$ his new  
025:213,08['  ]| cuffs were stained with porter and expressed a great desire  
025:213,09['  ]| to$9$ go back and fight it out but, dissuaded by$4$ Cranly, he  
025:213,10['  ]| began to$9$ tell Stephen in$4$ an indistinct undertone that$3$ he had  
025:213,11['  ]| got the highest marks in$4$ Pure*Mathematics ever given in$4$  
025:213,12['  ]| the degree examination.  He advised 
025:213,12['  ]| Stephen to$9$ go to$4$ London  
025:213,13['  ]| to$9$ write for$4$ the papers and said he could put him in$4$ the  
025:213,14['  ]| right way to$9$ get on$5$.  
025:213,14['  ]| When Cranly had begun a conversation  
025:213,15['  ]| with the others concerning the interrupted game of billiards  
025:213,16['  ]| Stephen's companion again announced that$3$ he had got the  
025:213,17['  ]| highest marks ever given in$4$ the degree in$4$ Pure*Mathematics.   
025:213,18['  ]| Stephen continued making his book of verses in$4$ spite of  
025:213,19['  ]| these distracting influences.  He had come to$4$ the conclusion  
025:213,20['  ]| that$3$ nature had designed him for$4$ a man of letters and therefore 
025:213,21['  ]| he determined that$3$, in$4$ spite of all influences, he would 
025:213,22['  ]| do as nature counselled.  He had begun to$9$ consider Cranly  
025:213,23['  ]| a bad influence.  Cranly's method in$4$ argument was to$9$ reduce  
025:213,24['  ]| all things to$4$ their food values (though he himself was the  
025:213,25['  ]| most impractical of theorists) and Stephen's conception of  
025:213,26['  ]| of art fared very badly from such a method.  Stephen held  
025:213,27['  ]| the test of food values an extreme one and one which$6#1$ in$4$ its  
025:213,28['  ]| utter materialism suggested a declination from the heights  
025:213,29['  ]| of romanticism.  He knew that$3$ Cranly's materialism was only  
025:213,30['  ]| skin-deep and he surmised that$3$ Cranly chose to$9$ express himself 
025:213,31['  ]| in$4$ language and conduct of direct ugliness simply because  
025:213,32['  ]| his fear of ridicule and more than diplomatic wish to$9$ be well  
025:213,33['  ]| with men urged him to$9$ refrain from beauty of any kind.  He  
025:214,01['  ]| fancied moreover that$3$ he detected in$4$ Cranly's attitude  
025:214,02['  ]| towards him a certain hostility, arising out of a thwarted  
025:214,03['  ]| desire to$9$ imitate.  Cranly was fond of ridiculing Stephen to$4$  
025:214,04['  ]| his bar companions and though this was supposed to$9$ be no$2$  
025:214,05['  ]| more than banter Stephen found touches of seriousness in$4$ it.   
025:214,06['  ]| Stephen refused to$9$ close with this trivial falsehood of his  
025:214,07['  ]| friend and continued to$9$ share all the secrets of his  
025:214,08['  ]| bosom as if he had not observed any change.  He no$2$ longer, 
025:214,09['  ]| however, sought his friend's opinion or allowed the sour dissatisfaction  
025:214,10['  ]| of his friend's moods to$9$ weigh with him.  He was  
025:214,11['  ]| egoistically determined that$3$ nothing material, no$2$ favour  
025:214,12['  ]| or reverse of fortune, no$2$ bond of association or impulse 
025:214,13['  ]| or tradition should hinder him from working out the enigma  
025:214,14['  ]| of his position in$4$ his own way.  He avoided his father sedulously  
025:214,15['  ]| because he now regarded his father's presumptions as  
025:214,16['  ]| the most deadly part of a tyranny, internal and external, 
025:214,17['  ]| which$6#1$ he determined to$9$ combat with might and main.  He  
025:214,18['  ]| argued no$2$ further with his mother, persuaded that$3$ he could  
025:214,19['  ]| have no$2$ satisfactory commerce with her so$5#1$ long as she chose  
025:214,20['  ]| to$9$ set the shadow of a clergyman between her nature and his.   
025:214,21['  ]| His mother told him one day that$3$ she had spoken of him to$4$  
025:214,22['  ]| her confessor and asked his spiritual advice.  Stephen turned  
025:214,23['  ]| to$4$ her and remonstrated hotly with her for$4$ doing such a  
025:214,24['  ]| thing.   
025:214,25[B  ]| ~~ It is a nice thing, 
025:214,25['  ]| he said, 
025:214,25[B  ]| that$3$ you go and discuss me  
025:214,26[B  ]| behind my back.  Have you not your own nature to$9$ guide  
025:214,27[B  ]| you, your own sense of what is right, without going to$4$ some  
025:214,28[B  ]| Father*Jack-in-the-Box to$9$ ask him to$9$ guide you?   
025:214,29[M  ]| ~~ Priests know a great deal of the world, 
025:214,29['  ]| said his mother.   
025:214,30[B  ]| ~~ And what did he advise you to$9$ do?   
025:214,31[M  ]| ~~ He said if there were any young children in$4$ the house  
025:214,32[M  ]| he would advise me to$9$ get out away from there as quickly  
025:214,33[M  ]| as I could.   
025:214,34[B  ]| ~~ Very nice!  
025:214,34['  ]| said Stephen angrily.  
025:214,34[B  ]| That$6#2$ is a pretty thing  
025:214,35[B  ]| for$4$ you to$9$ come and say to$4$ a son of yours!   
025:215,01[M  ]| ~~ I am simply telling you what the priest advised me to$9$  
025:215,02[M  ]| do, 
025:215,02['  ]| said his mother quietly.   
025:215,03[B  ]| ~~ These fellows, 
025:215,03['  ]| said Stephen, 
025:215,03[B  ]| know nothing of the world.   
025:215,04[B  ]| You might as well say that$3$ a rat in$4$ a sewer knew the world.   
025:215,05[B  ]| Anyway you will$1$ not repeat what I say to$4$ your confessor in$4$  
025:215,06[B  ]| future because I will$1$ not say anything.  And the next time he  
025:215,07[B  ]| asks you 
025:215,07[X  ]| ""What is that$6#2$ mistaken young man, that$6#2$ unfortunate  
025:215,08[X  ]| boy, doing?"" 
025:215,08['  ]| you can answer 
025:215,08[X  ]| ""I do not know, father.  I asked  
025:215,09[X  ]| him and he said I was to$9$ tell the priest he was making a  
025:215,10[X  ]| torpedo"".   
025:215,11['  ]| The general attitude of women towards religion puzzled  
025:215,12['  ]| and often maddened Stephen.  His nature was imcapable of  
025:215,13['  ]| achieving such an attitude of insincerity or stupidity.  By$4$  
025:215,14['  ]| brooding constantly upon$4$ this he ended by$4$ anathemising  
025:215,15['  ]| Emma as the most deceptive and cowardly of marsupials.   
025:215,16['  ]| He discovered that$3$ it was a menial fear and no$2$ spirit  
025:215,17['  ]| of chastity which$6#1$ had prevented her from granting his  
025:215,18['  ]| request.  
025:215,18@b   | Her eyes, 
025:215,18['  ]| he thought, 
025:215,18@b   | just look strange when upraised  
025:215,19@b   | to$4$ some holy image and her lips when poised for$4$ the  
025:215,20@b   | reception of the host.  
025:215,20['  ]| He cursed her burgher cowardice and  
025:215,21['  ]| her beauty and he said to$4$ himself 
025:215,21[YB ]| that$3$ though her eyes might  
025:215,22[YB ]| cajole the half-witted God of the Roman*Catholics they  
025:215,23[YB ]| would not cajole him.  
025:215,23['  ]| In$4$ every stray image of the streets he  
025:215,24['  ]| saw her soul manifest itself and every such manifestation  
025:215,25['  ]| renewed the intensity of his disapproval.  It did not strike  
025:215,26['  ]| him that$3$ the attitude of women towards holy things really  
025:215,27['  ]| implied a more genuine emancipation than his own and he  
025:215,28['  ]| condemned them out of a purely suppositious conscience.   
025:215,29['  ]| He exaggerated their iniquities and evil influence and returned  
025:215,30['  ]| them their antipathy in$4$ full measure.  He toyed also  
025:215,31['  ]| with a theory of dualism which$6#1$ would symbolise the twin  
025:215,32['  ]| eternities of spirit and nature in$4$ the twin eternities of male  
025:215,33['  ]| and female and even thought of explaining the audacities of  
025:215,34['  ]| his verse as symbolical allusions.  It was hard for$4$ him to$9$  
025:215,35['  ]| compel his head to$9$ preserve the strict temperature of classicism.   
025:215,36['  ]| More than he had ever done before he longed for$4$ the  
025:216,01['  ]| season to$9$ lift and for$4$ spring ~~ the misty Irish spring ~~ to$9$ be  
025:216,02['  ]| over and gone.  He was passing through Eccles'*St one  
025:216,03['  ]| evening, one misty evening, with all these thoughts dancing  
025:216,04['  ]| the dance of unrest in$4$ his brain when a trivial incident set  
025:216,05['  ]| him composing some ardent verses which$6#1$ he entitled a  
025:216,06['  ]| ""Vilanelle*of*the*Temptress"".  A young lady was standing on$4$  
025:216,07['  ]| the steps of one of those brown brick houses which$6#1$ seem the  
025:216,08['  ]| very incarnation of Irish paralysis.  A young gentleman was  
025:216,09['  ]| leaning on$4$ the rusty railing of the area.  Stephen as he passed  
025:216,10['  ]| on$4$ his quest heard the following fragment of colloquy out of  
025:216,11['  ]| which$6#1$ he received an impression keen enough to$9$ afflict his  
025:216,12['  ]| sensitiveness very severely.   
025:216,13[X  ]| The Young Lady ~~ (drawling discreetly) ~~ O, yes ~~ I  
025:216,14[X  ]| was ~~ at the ~~cha ~~ pel. ~~  
025:216,15[X  ]| The Young Man ~~ (inaudibly) ~~ I ~~ (again  
025:216,16[X  ]| inaudibly) ~~ I ~~  
025:216,17[X  ]| The Young Lady ~~ (softly) ~~ O ~~ but you are ~~ ve ~~  
025:216,18[X  ]| ry ~~ wick ~~ ed. ~~  
025:216,19['  ]| This triviality made him think of collecting many such  
025:216,20['  ]| moments together in$4$ a book of epiphanies.  By$4$ an epiphany  
025:216,21['  ]| he meant a sudden spiritual manifestation, whether in$4$ the  
025:216,22['  ]| vulgarity of speech or of gesture or in$4$ a memorable phase of  
025:216,23['  ]| the mind itself.  He believed that$3$ it was for$4$ the man of letters  
025:216,24['  ]| to$9$ record these epiphanies with extreme care, seeing that$3$ they  
025:216,25['  ]| themselves are the most delicate and evanescent of moments.   
025:216,26['  ]| He told Cranly that$3$ the clock of the Ballast*Office was  
025:216,27['  ]| capable of an epiphany.  Cranly questioned the inscrutable  
025:216,28['  ]| dial of the Ballast*Office with his no$2$ less inscrutable countenance.   
025:216,29['  ]|  
025:216,30[B  ]| ~~ Yes, 
025:216,30['  ]| said Stephen.  
025:216,30[B  ]| I will$1$ pass it time after time, allude  
025:216,31[B  ]| to$4$ it, refer to$4$ it, catch a glimpse of it.  It is only an item in$4$  
025:216,32[B  ]| the catalogue of Dublin's street furniture.  Then all at once  
025:216,33[B  ]| I see it and I know at once what it is:  epiphany.   
025:216,34[R  ]| ~~ What?   
025:216,35[B  ]| ~~ Imagine my glimpses at that$6#2$ clock as the gropings of a  
025:216,36[B  ]| spiritual eye which$6#1$ seeks to$9$ adjust its vision to$4$ an exact focus.   
025:217,01[B  ]| The moment the focus is reached the object is epiphanised.   
025:217,02[B  ]| It is just in$4$ this epiphany that$3$ I find the third, the supreme  
025:217,03[B  ]| quality of beauty.   
025:217,04[R  ]| ~~ Yes?  
025:217,04['  ]| said Cranly absently.   
025:217,05[B  ]| ~~ No$2$ esthetic theory, 
025:217,05['  ]| pursued Stephen relentlessly, 
025:217,05[B  ]| is of  
025:217,06[B  ]| any value which$6#1$ investigates with the aid of the lantern of  
025:217,07[B  ]| tradition.  What we symbolise in$4$ black the Chinaman may  
025:217,08[B  ]| symbolise in$4$ yellow:  each has his own traditon.  Greek  
025:217,09[B  ]| beauty laughs at Coptic beauty and the American*Indian  
025:217,10[B  ]| derides them both.  It is almost impossible to$9$ reconcile all  
025:217,11[B  ]| tradition whereas it is by$4$ no$2$ means impossible to$9$ find the  
025:217,12[B  ]| justification of every form of beauty which$6#1$ has been adored  
025:217,13[B  ]| on$4$ the earth by$4$ an examination into the mechanism of  
025:217,14[B  ]| esthetic apprehension whether it be dressed in$4$ red, white, 
025:217,15[B  ]| yellow or black.  We have no$2$ reason for$4$ thinking that$3$ the  
025:217,16[B  ]| Chinaman has a different system of digestion from that$6#2$  
025:217,17[B  ]| which$6#1$ we have though our diets are quite dissimilar.  The  
025:217,18[B  ]| apprehensive faculty must be scrutinised in$4$ action.   
025:217,19[R  ]| ~~ Yes ~~  
025:217,20[B  ]| ~~ You know what Aquinas says:  
025:217,20[Z  ]| The three things requisite  
025:217,21[Z  ]| for$4$ beauty are, integrity, a wholeness, symmetry and radiance.   
025:217,22[B  ]| Some day I will$1$ expand that$6#2$ sentence into a treatise.   
025:217,23[B  ]| Consider the performance of your own mind when confronted  
025:217,24[B  ]| with any object, hypothetically beautiful.  Your mind  
025:217,25[B  ]| to$9$ apprehend that$3$ object divides the entire universe into two  
025:217,26[B  ]| parts, the object, and the void which$6#1$ is not the object.  To$9$  
025:217,27[B  ]| apprehend it you must lift it away from everything else:  and then 
025:217,28[B  ]| you perceive that$3$ it is one integral thing, that$6#2$ is \a\ thing.   
025:217,29[B  ]| You recognise its integrity.  Is not that$6#2$ so$5#2$?   
025:217,30[R  ]| ~~ And then?   
025:217,31[B  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is the first quality of beauty:  it is declared in$4$ a  
025:217,32[B  ]| simple sudden synthesis of the faculty which$6#1$ apprehends.   
025:217,33[B  ]| What then?  Analysis then.  The mind considers the object  
025:217,34[B  ]| in$4$ whole and in$4$ part, in$4$ relation to$4$ itself and to$4$ other objects, 
025:217,35[B  ]| examines the balance of its parts, contemplates the form of  
025:217,36[B  ]| the object, traverses every cranny of the structure.  So$3$ the  
025:218,01[B  ]| mind receives the impression of the symmetry of the object.   
025:218,02[B  ]| The mind recognises that$3$ the object is in$4$ the strict sense of  
025:218,03[B  ]| the word, a \thing\, a definitely constituted entity.  You see?   
025:218,04[R  ]| ~~ Let us turn back, 
025:218,04['  ]| said Cranly.   
025:218,05['  ]| They had reached the corner of Grafton*St and as the  
025:218,06['  ]| footpath was overcrowded they turned back northwards.   
025:218,07['  ]| Cranly had an inclination to$9$ watch the antics of a drunkard  
025:218,08['  ]| who$6#1$ had been ejected from a bar in$4$ Suffolk*St but Stephen  
025:218,09['  ]| took his arm summarily and led him away.   
025:218,10[B  ]| ~~ Now for$4$ the third quality.  For$4$ a long time I could not  
025:218,11[B  ]| make out what Aquinas meant.  He uses a figurative word  
025:218,12[B  ]| (a very unusual thing for$4$ him) but I have solved it.  \Claritas\  
025:218,13[B  ]| is \7quidditas\.  After the analysis which$6#1$ discovers the second 
025:218,14[B  ]| quality the mind makes the only logically possible synthesis  
025:218,15[B  ]| and discovers the third quality.  This is the moment which$6#1$  
025:218,16[B  ]| I call epiphany.  First we recognise that$3$ the object is \one\  
025:218,17[B  ]| integral thing, then we recognise that$3$ it is an organised 
025:218,18[B  ]| composite structure, a \thing\ in$4$ fact:  finally, when the relation  
025:218,19[B  ]| of the parts is exquisite, when the parts are adjusted to$4$ the  
025:218,20[B  ]| special point, we recognise that$3$ it is \that$6#2$\ thing which$6#1$ it is.   
025:218,21[B  ]| Its soul, its whatness, leaps to$4$ us from the vestment of its  
025:218,22[B  ]| appearance.  The soul of the commonest object, the structure 
025:218,23[B  ]| of which$6#1$ is so$5#1$ adjusted, seems to$4$ us radiant.  The object  
025:218,24[B  ]| achieves its epiphany.   
025:218,25['  ]| Having finished his argument Stephen walked on$5$ in$4$  
025:218,26['  ]| silence.  He felt Cranly's hostility and he accused himself of  
025:218,27['  ]| having cheapened the eternal images of beauty.  For$4$ the first  
025:218,28['  ]| time, too, he felt slightly awkward in$4$ his friend's company  
025:218,29['  ]| and to$9$ restore a mood of flippant familiarity he glanced up$5$ at  
025:218,30['  ]| the clock of the Ballast*Office and smiled:   
025:218,31[B  ]| ~~ It has not epiphanised yet, 
025:218,31['  ]| he said.   
025:218,32['  ]| Cranly stared stolidly down the river and held his peace  
025:218,33['  ]| for$4$ a few minutes during which$6#1$ the expounder of the new  
025:218,34['  ]| esthetic repeated his theory to$4$ himself all over again.  A  
025:218,35['  ]| clock at the far side of the bridge chimed and simultaneously  
025:218,36['  ]| Cranly's thin lips parted for$4$ speech:   
025:219,01[R  ]| ~~ I wonder, 
025:219,01['  ]| he said ~~  
025:219,02[B  ]| ~~ What?   
025:219,03['  ]| Cranly continued to$9$ stare towards the mouth of the Liffey  
025:219,04['  ]| like$4$ a man in$4$ a trance.  Stephen waited for$4$ the sentence to$9$  
025:219,05['  ]| be finished and then he said again 
025:219,05[B  ]| ""What?"" 
025:219,05['  ]| Cranly then faced  
025:219,06['  ]| about suddenly and said with flat emphasis:   
025:219,07[R  ]| ~~ I wonder did that$6#2$ bloody boat, the \Sea-Queen\ ever start?   
025:219,08['  ]| Stephen had now completed a series of hymns in$4$ honour  
025:219,09['  ]| of extravagant beauty and these he published privately in$4$ a  
025:219,10['  ]| manuscript edition of one copy.  His last interview with Cranly 
025:219,11['  ]| had been so$5#1$ unsatisfactory that$3$ he hesitated to$9$ show the manuscript  
025:219,12['  ]| to$4$ him.  He kept the manuscript by$4$ him and its presence  
025:219,13['  ]| tormented him.  He wanted to$9$ show it to$4$ his parents but the  
025:219,14['  ]| examination was approaching and he knew that$3$ their sympathy  
025:219,15['  ]| would be incomplete.  He wanted to$9$ show it to$4$ Maurice  
025:219,16['  ]| but he was conscious that$3$ his brother resented having been  
025:219,17['  ]| forsaken for$4$ plebeian companions.  He wanted to$9$ show it to$4$  
025:219,18['  ]| Lynch but he dreaded the physical labour of urging that$6#2$ 
025:219,19['  ]| torpid young man into a condition of receptiveness.  He even  
025:219,20['  ]| thought for$4$ a moment of McCann and Madden.  He saw  
025:219,21['  ]| Madden rarely; the salute which$6#1$ the young patriot gave him  
025:219,22['  ]| on$4$ those rare occasions was not unlike the salute which$6#1$  
025:219,23['  ]| a friend who$6#1$ has failed gives to$4$ a friend who$6#1$ has succeeded.   
025:219,24['  ]| Madden spent the greater part of his day in$4$ Cooney's  
025:219,25['  ]| tobacco-shop, sampling and discussing \camans\, smoking very  
025:219,26['  ]| heavy tobacco and speaking Irish with newly arrived  
025:219,27['  ]| provincials.  McCann was still busily occupied in$4$ editing his  
025:219,28['  ]| magazine to$4$ which$6#1$ he had himself contributed an  
025:219,29['  ]| article entitled ""Rationalism*in*Practice"".  In$4$ this article he  
025:219,30['  ]| expressed the hope that$3$ mankind in$4$ the not too distant  
025:219,31['  ]| future would use mineral, instead of animal or  
025:219,32['  ]| vegetable diet.  The tone of the editor's writing had become  
025:219,33['  ]| much more orthodox than his spech had been wont to$9$ be.   
025:219,34['  ]| In$4$ the report of the general meeting of the College*Sodality  
025:220,01['  ]| which$6#1$ occupied a column and a half of the College magazine  
025:220,02['  ]| it was stated that$3$ Mr*McCann, in$4$ a forcible speech, had  
025:220,03['  ]| made many valuable suggestions for$4$ the working  
025:220,04['  ]| of the society on$4$ a more practical basis.  Stephen was surprised  
025:220,05['  ]| at this and when one day, walking through  
025:220,06['  ]| Nassau*St with Cranly, he encountered the editor striding  
025:220,07['  ]| vigorously towards the Libray he said to$4$ Cranly:   
025:220,08[B  ]| ~~ What is Bonny*Dundee at?   
025:220,09[R  ]| ~~ How ~~ 
025:220,09[Z  ]| at?   
025:220,10[B  ]| ~~ I mean ~~ this sodality business he is mixing himself up$5$  
025:220,11[B  ]| in$4$.  He can not be stupid enough to$9$ think he can use the  
025:220,12[B  ]| sodality for$4$ any good purpose.   
025:220,13['  ]| Cranly eyed Stephen quizzically but, after considering the  
025:220,14['  ]| matter, decided to$9$ make no$2$ remark.   
025:220,15['  ]| The examination resulted in$4$ Cranly's being ""stuck"" again  
025:220,16['  ]| and in$4$ Stephen's securing a low pass.  Stephen did not think  
025:220,17['  ]| it necessary to$9$ take the results of these examinations very  
025:220,18['  ]| bitterly to$4$ heart inasmuch as he knew that$3$ Father*Artifoni, 
025:220,19['  ]| who$6#1$ had presented himself for$4$ the matriculation  
025:220,20['  ]| examination, had been awarded higher marks for$4$ his English  
025:220,21['  ]| paper than for$4$ his Italian paper, having been tested in$4$ the  
025:220,22['  ]| latter language by$4$ a polyglot examiner who$6#1$ examined in$4$  
025:220,23['  ]| French, Italian, Arabic, Hebrew, Spanish and  
025:220,24['  ]| German.  Stephen sympathised with his teacher who$6#1$ was  
025:220,25['  ]| ingenuous enough to$9$ express his astonishment.  One evening  
025:220,26['  ]| during the examinations Stephen was talking to$4$ Cranly under  
025:220,27['  ]| the arcade of the University when Emma passed them.   
025:220,28['  ]| Cranly raised his ancient straw hat (which$6#1$ he had once more  
025:220,29['  ]| resurrected) and Stephen followed suit.  In$4$ reply she bowed  
025:220,30['  ]| very politely across Stephen at his friend.  Cranly replaced his hat  
025:220,31['  ]| and proceeded to$9$ meditate in$4$ the shade of it for$4$ a few minutes.   
025:220,32[R  ]| ~~ Why did she do that$6#2$?  
025:220,32['  ]| he said.   
025:220,33[B  ]| ~~ An invitation, perhaps, 
025:220,33['  ]| said Stephen.   
025:220,34['  ]| Cranly stared continuously at the air through which$6#1$ she  
025:220,35['  ]| had passed:  and Stephen said smilingly:   
025:220,36[B  ]| ~~ Perhaps she meant it as an invitation.   
025:221,01[R  ]| ~~ Perhaps.   
025:221,02[B  ]| ~~ You are incomplete without a woman, 
025:221,02['  ]| said Stephen.   
025:221,03[R  ]| ~~ Only she is so$5#1$ flamin' fat, 
025:221,03['  ]| said Cranly, 
025:221,03[R  ]| do you know ~~.   
025:221,04['  ]| Stephen kept silent.  He was not pleased that$3$ anyone else  
025:221,05['  ]| should speak against her and he did not smile when Cranly  
025:221,06['  ]| took his arm saying 
025:221,06[R  ]| ""Let us eke go"" 
025:221,06['  ]| which$6#1$ was always  
025:221,07['  ]| intended as an old English expression inviting departure.   
025:221,08['  ]| Stephen had long ago debated with himself the advisability  
025:221,09['  ]| of telling Cranly that$3$ the expression should be amended but  
025:221,10['  ]| Cranly's persistent emphasis of the word 
025:221,10[Z  ]| ""eke"" 
025:221,10['  ]| acted as a  
025:221,11['  ]| deterrent.   
025:221,12['  ]| The announcement of the result of the examination led  
025:221,13['  ]| to$4$ a domestic squabble.  Mr*Daedalus ransacked his vocabulary  
025:221,14['  ]| in$4$ search of abusive terms and ended by$4$ asking Stephen  
025:221,15['  ]| what were his plans for$4$ the future.   
025:221,16[B  ]| ~~ I have no$2$ plans.   
025:221,17[J  ]| ~~ Well then the sooner you clear out the better.  You have been  
025:221,18[J  ]| having us I see.  However with the help of God and  
025:221,19[J  ]| His*Holy*Mother I will$1$ write to$4$ Mullingar the first thing in$4$  
025:221,20[J  ]| the morning.  There is no$2$ use in$4$ your godfather wasting any  
025:221,21[J  ]| more of his money on$4$ you.   
025:221,22[M  ]| ~~ Simon, 
025:221,22['  ]| said Mrs*Daedalus, 
025:221,22[M  ]| you always go to$4$ the fair  
025:221,23[M  ]| with the story.  Can not you be reasonable?   
025:221,24[J  ]| ~~ Reasonable be damned.  Do not I know the set he has  
025:221,25[J  ]| got into ~~ lousy-looking patriots and that$6#2$ football chap in$4$ the  
025:221,26[J  ]| knickerbockers.  To$9$ tell you the God's truth, Stephen, I thought  
025:221,27[J  ]| you would have more pride than to$9$ associate with such \9canaille\.   
025:221,28[M  ]| ~~ I do not think Stephen has done so$5#1$ badly in$4$ his examination:   
025:221,29[M  ]| he has not failed and after all ~~  
025:221,30[J  ]| ~~ She will$1$ put in$4$ her word, you know, 
025:221,30['  ]| said Mr*Daedalus  
025:221,31['  ]| to$4$ his son.  
025:221,31[J  ]| That$6#2$ is a little hereditary habit.  Her family, you  
025:221,32[J  ]| know, by$4$ God they know anything you can ask them down  
025:221,33[J  ]| to$4$ the making of the mainspring of a watch.  Fact.   
025:221,34[M  ]| ~~ You ought not to$9$ run away with the story, Simon.  Many  
025:221,35[M  ]| fathers would be glad to$9$ have such a son.   
025:221,36[J  ]| ~~ You need not interfere between me and my son. We  
025:222,01[J  ]| understand each other.  I am not saying anything to$4$ him; but  
025:222,02[J  ]| I want to$9$ know what he has been doing for$4$ twelve months.   
025:222,03['  ]| Stephen continued tapping the blade of his knife on$4$ the  
025:222,04['  ]| edge of his plate.   
025:222,05[J  ]| ~~ What have you been doing?   
025:222,06[B  ]| ~~ Thinking.   
025:222,07[J  ]| ~~ Thinking?  Is that$6#2$ all?   
025:222,08[B  ]| ~~ And writing a little.   
025:222,09[J  ]| ~~ Hm.  I see.  Wasting your time, in$4$ fact.   
025:222,10[B  ]| ~~ I do not consider it waste of time to$9$ think.   
025:222,11[J  ]| ~~ Hm.  I see.  you see I know these Bohemian chaps, 
025:222,12[J  ]| these poets, who$6#1$ do not consider it waste of time to$9$ think.  But  
025:222,13[J  ]| at the same time they are damn glad to$9$ borrow an odd shilling  
025:222,14[J  ]| now and then to$9$ buy chops with.  How will$1$ you like$1$ thinking 
025:222,15[J  ]| when you have no$2$ chops?  Can not you go for$4$ something  
025:222,16[J  ]| definite, some good appointment in$4$ a government office and  
025:222,17[J  ]| then, by$4$ Christ, you can think as much as you like$1$.  Study for$4$  
025:222,18[J  ]| some first-class appointment, there are plenty of them, and  
025:222,19[J  ]| you can write at your leisure.  Unless, perhaps, you would  
025:222,20[J  ]| prefer to$9$ be a loafer eating orange-peels and sleeping in$4$ the  
025:222,21[J  ]| Park.   
025:222,22['  ]| Stephen made no$2$ reply.  When the harangue had been  
025:222,23['  ]| repeated five or six times he got up$5$ and went out.  He went  
025:222,24['  ]| over to$4$ the Library to$9$ look for$4$ Cranly and, not finding him  
025:222,25['  ]| in$4$ the reading-room or in$4$ the porch, went to$4$ the Adelphi*Hotel.   
025:222,26['  ]| It was a Saturday night and the rooms were crowded  
025:222,27['  ]| with clerks.  The clerk from the Agricultural*Board*Office  
025:222,28['  ]| was sitting in$4$ the corner of the bar with his hat pushed  
025:222,29['  ]| well back from his forehead and at once Stephen recognised  
025:222,30['  ]| the dark ooze which$6#1$ was threatening to$9$ emerge upon$4$ his  
025:222,31['  ]| heated face.  He was occupied in$4$ twirling his moustache in$4$  
025:222,32['  ]| the crook of his index finger, and in$4$ glancing between the  
025:222,33['  ]| barmaid's face and the label of his bottle of stout.  The  
025:222,34['  ]| billiard-room was very noisy:  all the tables were engaged and  
025:222,35['  ]| the balls hopped on$5$ to$4$ the floor every minute or so$5#2$.  Some of  
025:222,36['  ]| the players played in$4$ their shirt-sleeves.   
025:223,01['  ]| Cranly was sitting stolidly on$4$ the seat that$6#1$ ran alongside  
025:223,02['  ]| the tables, watching a game.  Stephen sat beside him in$4$  
025:223,03['  ]| silence, also watching the game.  It was a three-handed game.   
025:223,04['  ]| An elderly clerk, evidently in$4$ a patronising mood, was playing 
025:223,05['  ]| two of his junior colleagues.  The elderly clerk was a tall  
025:223,06['  ]| stout man who$6#1$ wore gilt spectacles on$4$ a face like$4$ a red  
025:223,07['  ]| shrivelled apple.  He was in$4$ his shirt-sleeves and he played  
025:223,08['  ]| and spoke so$5#1$ briskly as to$9$ suggest that$3$ he was drilling rather  
025:223,09['  ]| than playing.  The young clerks were both clean-shaven.   
025:223,10['  ]| One of them was a thickset young man who$6#1$ played doggedly  
025:223,11['  ]| without speaking, the other was an effervescent young man  
025:223,12['  ]| with white eyebrows and a nervous manner.  Cranly and  
025:223,13['  ]| Stephen watched the game progress, creep from point to$4$  
025:223,14['  ]| point.  The heavy young man put his ball on$5$ to$4$ the floor  
025:223,15['  ]| three times in$4$ succession and the scoring was so$5#1$ slow that$3$ the  
025:223,16['  ]| marker came and stood by$4$ the table as a reminder that$3$ the  
025:223,17['  ]| twenty minutes had passed.  The players chalked their cues  
025:223,18['  ]| oftener than before and, seeing that$3$ they were in$4$ earnest  
025:223,19['  ]| about finishing the game, the marker did not say anything  
025:223,20['  ]| about the time.  But his presence acted upon$4$ them.  The  
025:223,21['  ]| elderly clerk jerked his cue at his ball, making a bad stroke, 
025:223,22['  ]| and stood back from the table blinking his eyes and saying  
025:223,23[X  ]| ""Missed that$6#2$ time"".  
025:223,23['  ]| The effervescent young clerk hurried to$4$  
025:223,24['  ]| his ball, made a bad stroke and, looking along his cue, said  
025:223,25[X  ]| ""Ah!"".  
025:223,25['  ]| The dogged young man shot his ball straight into the  
025:223,26['  ]| top pocket, a fact which$6#1$ the marker registered at once on$4$ the  
025:223,27['  ]| broken marking-board.  The elderly clerk peered for$4$ a few  
025:223,28['  ]| critical seconds over the rim of his glasses, made another bad  
025:223,29['  ]| stroke and, at once proceeding to$9$ chalk his cue, 
025:223,30['  ]| said briefly and sharply to$4$ the effervescent young man  
025:223,31[X  ]| ""Come on$5$ now, White.  Hurry up$5$ now."" 
025:223,32['  ]| The hopeless pretence of those three lives before him, their  
025:223,33['  ]| unredeemable servility, made the back of Stephen's eyes feel  
025:223,34['  ]| burning hot.  He laid his hand on$4$ Cranly's shoulder  
025:223,35['  ]| and said impetuously:   
025:223,36[B  ]| ~~ We must go out at once.  I can not stand it any longer.   
025:224,01['  ]| They crossed the room together and Stephen said:   
025:224,02[B  ]| ~~ If I had remained another minute I think I would have  
025:224,03[B  ]| begun to$9$ cry.   
025:224,04[R  ]| ~~ Yes, it is bloody awful, 
025:224,04['  ]| said Cranly.   
025:224,05[B  ]| ~~ O, hopeless!  hopeless!  
025:224,05['  ]| said Stephen clenching his fists.   
026:225,01['  ]| A FEW nights before Cranly went to$4$ the country to$9$  
026:225,02['  ]| refresh himself in$4$ body after his failure in$4$ the examination, 
026:225,03['  ]| Stephen said to$4$ him:   
026:225,04[B  ]| ~~ I believe this will$1$ be an important season for$4$ me.  I  
026:225,05[B  ]| intend to$9$ come to$4$ some decision as to$4$ my course of action.   
026:225,06[R  ]| ~~ But you will$1$ go for$4$ Second*Arts next year?   
026:225,07[B  ]| ~~ My godfather may not pay.  They expected I would get  
026:225,08[B  ]| an exhibition.   
026:225,09[R  ]| ~~ And why did not you?  
026:225,09['  ]| Said Cranly.   
026:225,10[B  ]| ~~ I will$1$ think things out, 
026:225,10['  ]| said Stephen, 
026:225,10[B  ]| and see what I  
026:225,11[B  ]| can do.   
026:225,12[R  ]| ~~ There are a hundred things you can do.   
026:225,13[B  ]| ~~ Are there, faith?  We will$1$ see ~~ I might want to$9$ write  
026:225,14[B  ]| to$4$ you.  What is your address?   
026:225,15['  ]| Cranly affected not to$9$ hear this question.  He was picking  
026:225,16['  ]| his teeth with a match, very deliberately and scrupulously, 
026:225,17['  ]| occasionally halting to$9$ insert his tongue carefully into some  
026:225,18['  ]| crevice before continuing the process of picking.  He spat out  
026:225,19['  ]| what he dislodged.  His straw hat rested mainly on$4$ the  
026:225,20['  ]| nape of his neck and his feet were planted far apart.  After  
026:225,21['  ]| a considerable pause he returned to$4$ his last phrase, as if he  
026:225,22['  ]| had been inwardly reviewing it:   
026:225,23[R  ]| ~~ Ay, hundreds of things.   
026:225,24['  ]| Stephen said:   
026:225,25[B  ]| ~~ What is your address in$4$ the country?   
026:225,26[R  ]| ~~ My address?  ~~ O ~~ You see ~~ it is really impossible, 
026:225,27[R  ]| do you know, to$9$ say what my address would be.  But you will$1$ not  
026:225,28[R  ]| come to$4$ any decision before I come back ~~ I am almost sure  
026:225,29[R  ]| I will$1$ go in$4$ the morning but I want to$9$ see at what time  
026:225,30[R  ]| there is a train.   
026:225,31[B  ]| ~~ We looked before, 
026:225,31['  ]| said Stephen.  
026:225,31[B  ]| Half past nine.   
026:225,32[R  ]| ~~ No$7$ ~~ I think I must go up$5$ to$4$ Harcourt*St to$9$ see what  
026:225,33[R  ]| time there is a train.   
026:226,01['  ]| They walked slowly in$4$ the direction of Harcourt*St.   
026:226,02['  ]| Stephen, refusing to$9$ nurse ill-feeling, said:   
026:226,03[B  ]| ~~ What mysterious purpose is concealed under your  
026:226,04[B  ]| impossible prosiness?  Please tell me that$6#2$.  Have you anything  
026:226,05[B  ]| in$4$ your mind's eye?   
026:226,06[R  ]| ~~ If I had a mysterious purpose, 
026:226,06['  ]| said Cranly, 
026:226,06[R  ]| I would not  
026:226,07[R  ]| be likely to$9$ tell you, (would I?), what it was.   
026:226,08[B  ]| ~~ I have told you a great deal, 
026:226,08['  ]| said Stephen.   
026:226,09[R  ]| ~~ Most people have some purpose or other in$4$ their lives.   
026:226,10[R  ]| Aristotle says that$3$ the end of every being is its greatest good.   
026:226,11[R  ]| We all act in$4$ view of some good.   
026:226,12[B  ]| ~~ Could not you be a bit more precise?  You do not wish  
026:226,13[B  ]| me to$9$ write gospels about you, do you?  ~~ Are you really  
026:226,14[B  ]| thinking of being a pork-butcher?   
026:226,15[R  ]| ~~ Yes, really.  Would you not think of it.  You could  
026:226,16[R  ]| wrap your sausages in$4$ your love-poems.   
026:226,17['  ]| Stephen laughed.   
026:226,18[B  ]| ~~ You must not think you can impose on$4$ me, Cranly, 
026:226,18['  ]| he  
026:226,19['  ]| said.  
026:226,19[B  ]| I know you are damnably romantic.   
026:226,20['  ]| At Harcourt*St*Station they went up$5$ to$4$ the time-table  
026:226,21['  ]| and after a glance at it Stephen said mischievously:   
026:226,22[B  ]| ~~ Half past nine, as I told you.  You see you would not take  
026:226,23[B  ]| a fool's word for$4$ it.   
026:226,24[R  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is another train, 
026:226,24['  ]| said Cranly impatiently.   
026:226,25['  ]| Stephen smiled with enjoyment while Cranly began to$9$  
026:226,26['  ]| examine the chart, murmuring the names of the stations to$4$  
026:226,27['  ]| himself and calculating time.  In$4$ the end he seemed to$9$ arrive  
026:226,28['  ]| at some decision for$3$ he said to$4$ Stephen 
026:226,28[R  ]| ""Let us eke go"".   
026:226,29['  ]| Outside the station Stephen pulled his friend's coat-sleeve  
026:226,30['  ]| and pointed to$4$ a newsbill which$6#1$ was exposed to$4$ public gaze  
026:226,31['  ]| on$4$ the roadway, held down at the corners by$4$ four stones.   
026:226,32[B  ]| ~~ Have you seen this?   
026:226,33['  ]| They stopped to$9$ read the bill and four  
026:226,34['  ]| or five people also stopped to$9$ read it.  Cranly read out the  
026:226,35['  ]| items in$4$ his flattest accent, beginning at the headline:   
026:227,01[Z  ]| NATIONALIST MEETING AT BALLINROBE 
026:227,02[Z  ]| IMPORTANT SPEECHES 
026:227,03[Z  ]| MAIN DRAINAGE SCHEME 
026:227,04[Z  ]| BREEZY DISCUSSION 
026:227,05[Z  ]| DEATH OF A WELL-KNOWN SOLICITOR 
026:227,06[Z  ]| MAD COW AT CABRA 
026:227,07[Z  ]| LITERATURE &c.   
026:227,08[B  ]| ~~ Do you think it requires great ability to$9$ live that$6#2$ life  
026:227,09[B  ]| successfully?  
016:227,09['  ]| asked Stephen when they were once more on$4$  
026:227,10['  ]| the way.   
026:227,11[R  ]| ~~ I suppose you consider literature the most important  
026:227,12[R  ]| thing there?   
026:227,13[B  ]| ~~ You take up$5$ that$6#2$ view of the world, I am sure, out of  
026:227,14[B  ]| pure perversity.  You try to$9$ prove me abnormal and diseased  
026:227,15[B  ]| but it is as easy to$9$ prove that$3$ the well-known solicitor was  
026:227,16[B  ]| diseased and abnormal.  Insensibility is a mark of disease.   
026:227,17[R  ]| ~~ He may have been what would call an artist.   
026:227,18[B  ]| ~~ Yes, of course ~~ And as for$4$ the temptation which$6#1$  
026:227,19[B  ]| Satan was allowed to$9$ dangle before the eyes of Jesus it is, 
026:227,20[B  ]| in$4$ reality, the most ineffectual temptation to$9$ offer to$4$ any  
026:227,21[B  ]| man of genius.  The well-known solicitor might succumb to$4$  
026:227,22[B  ]| it but for$4$ Jesus the kingdom of this world must have been a  
026:227,23[B  ]| very empty phrase indeed ~~ at least when he had outgrown  
026:227,24[B  ]| a romantic youth.  Satan, really, is the romantic youth of  
026:227,25[B  ]| Jesus re-appearing for$4$ a moment.  I had a romantic youth, 
026:227,26[B  ]| too, when I thought it must be a grand thing to$9$ be a material  
026:227,27[B  ]| Messias:  that$6#2$ was the will$0$ of my father who$6#1$ will$1$ never be in$4$  
026:227,28[B  ]| heaven.  But now such a thought arises in$4$ my mind only in$4$  
026:227,29[B  ]| moments of great physical weakness.  So$3$ I regard that$6#2$ view  
026:227,30[B  ]| of life as the abnormal view ~~ for$4$ me.  A few days ago I  
026:228,01[B  ]| walked out to$4$ Howth for$4$ a swim and while I was going round  
026:228,02[B  ]| the side of the Head I had to$9$ take a little ribbon of a path 
026:228,03[B  ]| that$6#1$ hung high over the rocks ~~  
026:228,04[R  ]| ~~ What side of Howth?   
026:228,05[B  ]| ~~ Near the Bailey ~~ Very good.  As I looked down on$4$  
026:228,06[B  ]| those rocks beneath me the thought arose in$4$ my mind to$9$ cast  
026:228,07[B  ]| myself down upon$4$ them.  The thought made me shiver with  
026:228,08[B  ]| pleasure for$4$ a moment, but, of course, I recognised our old  
026:228,09[B  ]| friend.  All these temptations are of a piece.  To$4$ Jesus, to$4$  
026:228,10[B  ]| me, to$4$ the excitable person who$6#1$ adopts brigandage or  
026:228,11[B  ]| suicide after taking the suggestions of literature too seriously, 
026:228,12[B  ]| Satan offers a monstrous life.  It is monstrous because the  
026:228,13[B  ]| seat of the spiritual principle of a man is not transferable to$4$  
026:228,14[B  ]| a material object.  A man only pretends to$9$ think his hat more  
026:228,15[B  ]| important than his head.  That$6#2$ view of life, I consider, is  
026:228,16[B  ]| abnormal.   
026:228,17[R  ]| ~~ You cannot call that$6#2$ abnormal which$6#1$ everyone does.   
026:228,18[B  ]| ~~ Does everyone jump off the Hill*of*Howth?  Does everyone  
026:228,19[B  ]| join secret societies?  Does everyone sacrifice happiness  
026:228,20[B  ]| and pleasure and peace to$4$ honour in$4$ the world?  Father*Artifoni  
026:228,21[B  ]| told me of a society of mutual assistance in$4$ Italy the  
026:228,22[B  ]| members of which$6#1$ had the right to$9$ be thrown into the Arno  
026:228,23[B  ]| by$4$ their fellow-members on$4$ signing a paper proving that$3$ their  
026:228,24[B  ]| case was past curing.   
026:228,25['  ]| At Noblett's corner where they always halted, they found  
026:228,26['  ]| Temple declaiming to$4$ a little ring of young men.  The young  
026:228,27['  ]| men were laughing very much at Temple who$6#1$ was very  
026:228,28['  ]| drunk.  Stephen kept his eyes fixed on$4$ Temple's shapeless  
026:228,29['  ]| mouth which$6#1$ at moments was flecked with a thin foam as it  
026:228,30['  ]| strove to$9$ enunciate a difficult word.  Cranly stared at the  
026:228,31['  ]| group and said:   
026:228,32[R  ]| ~~ I will$1$ take my dyin' bible Temple has been standing those  
026:228,33[R  ]| medicals drinks ~~ The bloody fool!  ~~  
026:228,34['  ]| Temple caught sight of them and at once broke off his  
026:228,35['  ]| discourse to$9$ come over to$4$ them.  One or two of the medicals  
026:228,36['  ]| followed him.   
026:229,01[S  ]| ~~ Good evening, 
026:229,01['  ]| said Temple, fumbling at his cap.   
026:229,02[R  ]| ~~ \7Druncus 7es\.   
026:229,03['  ]| The two medicals laughed while Temple began to$9$ search  
026:229,04['  ]| his pockets.  During the search his mouth fell asunder.   
026:229,05[R  ]| ~~ Who$6#2$ has the money?  
026:229,05['  ]| said Cranly.   
026:229,06['  ]| The two medicals laughed and nodded towards Temple  
026:229,07['  ]| who$6#1$ desisted from his search disconsolately, saying:   
026:229,08[S  ]| ~~ Ay, by$4$ hell ~~ I was going to$9$ stand a drink ~~ Ah, by$4$  
026:229,09[S  ]| hell!  ~~ Where is the other bob I had?  ~~  
026:229,10['  ]| One of the medicals said:   
026:229,11[X  ]| ~~ You changed it in$4$ Connery's.   
026:229,12['  ]| The other medical said:   
026:229,13[X  ]| ~~ He got stuck in$4$ his first today.  That$6#2$ is why he went on$4$  
026:229,14[X  ]| the beer tonight.   
026:229,15[R  ]| ~~ And where did you raise the money?  
026:229,15['  ]| said Cranly to$4$  
026:229,16['  ]| Temple, who$6#1$ began to$9$ search his pockets again.   
026:229,17[X  ]| ~~ He popped his watch for$4$ ten bob.   
026:229,18[R  ]| ~~ It must not be a bad watch, 
026:229,18['  ]| said Cranly, 
026:229,18[R  ]| if he got ten  
026:229,19[R  ]| bob on$4$ it.  Where did he get ten bob?   
026:229,20[X  ]| ~~ Ah no$7$!  
026:229,20['  ]| said the second medical.  
026:229,20[X  ]| I popped it for$4$ him.  I  
026:229,21[X  ]| know a chap named Larkin in$4$ Granby*Row.   
026:229,22['  ]| The big medical student who$6#1$ had had the political discussion  
026:229,23['  ]| in$4$ the \Adelphi\ with the clerk from the Agricultural*Board*Office  
026:229,24['  ]| came over to$4$ them and said:   
026:229,25[X  ]| ~~ Well, Temple, are you going to$9$ take us down to$4$ the  
026:229,26[X  ]| kips?   
026:229,27[S  ]| ~~ Ah, blazes, 
026:229,27['  ]| said Temple, 
026:229,27[S  ]| all my money's gone ~~ Ah, 
026:229,28[S  ]| by$4$ hell, I must have a woman ~~ By$4$ hell, I will$1$ ask for$4$ a  
026:229,29[S  ]| woman on$4$ tick.   
026:229,30['  ]| The big student roared laughing and turning to$4$ Cranly, 
026:229,31['  ]| against whom he had a grudge on$4$ account of the affair in$4$  
026:229,32['  ]| the \Adelphi\, he said:   
026:229,33[X  ]| ~~ Will$1$ you have a woman too if I stand?   
026:229,34['  ]| Cranly's chastity was famous but the young men were not  
026:229,35['  ]| quite impressed by$4$ it.  At the same time the group did  
026:229,36['  ]| not betray its opinion by$4$ laughing at the big student's  
026:230,01['  ]| invitation.  Cranly did not answer; and so$3$ the second medical  
026:230,02['  ]| student said:   
026:230,03[X  ]| ~~ Mac got through!   
026:230,04[R  ]| ~~ What Mac?  
026:230,04['  ]| said Cranly.   
026:230,05[X  ]| ~~ Mac ~~ you know ~~ the Gaelic*League chap.  He  
026:230,06[X  ]| brought us down to$4$ the kips last night.   
026:230,07[R  ]| ~~ And had you all women?   
026:230,08[X  ]| ~~ No$7$ ~~  
026:230,09[R  ]| ~~ What did you go there for$4$?   
026:230,10[X  ]| ~~ He suggested we would walk through.  Fine tarts there, too.   
026:230,11[X  ]| They were running after us, man:  it was fine skit.  Ay, and  
026:230,12[X  ]| one of them hit Mac because she said he insulted her.   
026:230,13[R  ]| ~~ What did he do?   
026:230,14[X  ]| ~~ I do not know.  He said ""Gellong, you dirty  
026:230,15[X  ]| hure"" or something like$4$ that$6#2$.   
026:230,16[R  ]| ~~ And what did Mac say?   
026:230,17[X  ]| ~~ Said he would charge her if she followed him any further.   
026:230,18[X  ]| ~~ Well, I will$1$ stand women all round if Cranly has one, said  
026:230,19[X  ]| the big student who$6#1$ was in$4$ the habit of making a single  
026:230,20[X  ]| inspiration serve him for$4$ a half-hour's conversation.   
026:230,21[S  ]| ~~ Ah, by$4$ hell, 
026:230,21['  ]| said Temple suddenly, 
026:230,21[S  ]| have you heard the  
026:230,22[S  ]| new parable ~~ about the monkeys in$4$ Barbary?  ~~ Mar ~~  
026:230,23[S  ]| vellous parable ~~ Flanagan told me ~~ O, (he said to$4$  
026:230,24[S  ]| Stephen) he wants to$9$ be introduced to$4$ you ~~ wants to$9$  
026:230,25[S  ]| know ~~ Fine fellow ~~ does not care a damn for$4$ religion or  
026:230,26[S  ]| priests ~~ By$4$ hell, I am a freethinker ~~  
026:230,27[B  ]| ~~ What is the parable, 
026:230,27['  ]| said Stephen.   
026:230,28['  ]| Temple took off his cap and, bareheaded, he began to$9$  
026:230,29['  ]| recite after the fashion of a country priest, prolonging all the  
026:230,30['  ]| vowels jerking out the phrases, and dropping his voice  
026:230,31['  ]| at every pause:   
026:230,32[S  ]| ~~ Dearly beloved Brethren:  There was once a tribe of  
026:230,33[S  ]| monkeys in$4$ Barbary.  And ~~ these monkeys were as  
026:230,34[S  ]| numerous as the sands of the sea.  They lived together in$4$ 
026:230,35[S  ]| the woods in$4$ polygamous ~~ intercourse ~~ and reproduced  
026:230,36[S  ]| ~~ their species. ~~  But, behold there came into Barbary  
026:231,01[S  ]| ~~ the holy missionaries, the holy men of God ~~ to$9$ redeem  
026:231,02[S  ]| the people of Barbary.  And these holy men preached to$4$ the  
026:231,03[S  ]| people ~~ and then ~~ they went into the woods ~~  
026:231,04[S  ]| far away into the woods ~~ to$9$ pray to$4$ God.  And they lived as  
026:231,05[S  ]| hermits ~~ in$4$ the woods ~~ and praying to$4$ God.  And, behold, 
026:231,06[S  ]| the monkeys of Barbary who$6#1$ were in$4$ the trees ~~ saw  
026:231,07[S  ]| these holy men living as hermits ~~ as lonely hermits ~~  
026:231,08[S  ]| praying to$4$ God.  And the monkeys who$6#1$, my dearly beloved  
026:231,09[S  ]| brethren, are imitative creatures ~~ began to$9$ imitate the  
026:231,10[S  ]| actions ~~ of these holy men ~~ and began to$9$ do likewise.   
026:231,11[S  ]| And so$3$ ~~ they separated from one another  
026:231,12[S  ]| ~~ and went away far away, to$9$ pray to$4$ God ~~ and they  
026:231,13[S  ]| did as they had seen the holy men do ~~ and prayed to$4$ God  
026:231,14[S  ]| ~~ And ~~ they did not return ~~ any more ~~ nor try  
026:231,15[S  ]| to$9$ reproduce the species ~~ And so$3$ ~~ gradually ~~ these  
026:231,16[S  ]| po ~~ or monkeys ~~ grew fewer and fewer ~~ and fewer 
026:231,17[S  ]| and fewer ~~ And today ~~ there is no$2$ monkey in$4$ all  
026:231,18[S  ]| Barbary.   
026:231,19['  ]| Temple crossed himself and replaced his hat while the  
026:231,20['  ]| audience began to$9$ clap their hands together.  Just then a  
026:231,21['  ]| policeman moved on$4$ the group.  Stephen said to$4$ Cranly:   
026:231,22[B  ]| ~~ Who$6#2$ is this Flanagan?   
026:231,23['  ]| Cranly did not answer but followed Temple and his companions  
026:231,24['  ]| walking emphatically and saying 
026:231,24[X  ]| ""'M, yes"" 
026:231,24['  ]| to$4$ himself.   
026:231,25['  ]| They could hear Temple bemoaning his poverty to$4$ his  
026:231,26['  ]| companions and repeating snatches of his parable.   
026:231,27[B  ]| ~~ Who$6#2$ is this Flanagan?  
026:231,27['  ]| said Stephen again to$4$ Cranly.   
026:231,28[R  ]| ~~ Another bloody fool, 
026:231,28['  ]| said Cranly in$4$ a tone which$6#1$ left  
026:231,29['  ]| the comparison open.   
026:231,30['  ]| A few days later Cranly went to$4$ Wicklow.  Stephen spent  
026:231,31['  ]| his summer with Maurice.  He told his brother what troubles he  
026:231,32['  ]| anticipated when the college term reopened and together  
026:231,33['  ]| they discussed plans for$4$ living.  Maurice suggested that$3$ the  
026:231,34['  ]| verses should be sent to$4$ a publisher.   
026:231,35[B  ]| ~~ I cannot send them to$4$ a publisher, 
026:231,35['  ]| said Stephen, 
026:231,35[B  ]| because  
026:231,36[B  ]| I have burned them.   
026:232,01[K  ]| ~~ Burned them!   
026:232,02[B  ]| ~~ Yes, 
026:232,02['  ]| said Stephen, curtly, 
026:232,02[B  ]| they were romantic.   
026:232,03['  ]| In$4$ the end they decided that$3$ it would be best to$9$ wait until  
026:232,04['  ]| Mr*Fulham made his intentions known.  Mrs*Daedalus  
026:232,05['  ]| called one day to$9$ see Father*Butt.  She did not report her  
026:232,06['  ]| interview fully but Stephen understood that$3$ Father*Butt had  
026:232,07['  ]| at first prescribed a clerkship in$4$ Guinness's as a solution of the  
026:232,08['  ]| young man's difficult case and, when Mrs*Daedalus had  
026:232,09['  ]| shaken her head incredulously, he had asked to$9$ see Stephen.   
026:232,10['  ]| He had thrown out hints about some new arrangement of  
026:232,11['  ]| the college which$6#1$ would necessitate new appointments.   
026:232,12['  ]| These hints were fed upon$5$ by$4$ Stephen's parents.   
026:232,13['  ]| The next day Stephen called to$4$ the college to$9$ see Father*Butt.   
026:232,14[G  ]| ~~ O, come in$5$, my dear boy, said Father*Butt 
026:232,14['  ]| when  
026:232,15['  ]| Stephen appeared at the door of the little uncarpeted bedroom.   
026:232,16['  ]| 
026:232,17['  ]| Father*Butt began to$9$ talk a great deal about general topics, 
026:232,18['  ]| without saying anything definite but asking Stephen over  
026:232,19['  ]| and over again for$4$ an expression of opinion which$6#1$ was always  
026:232,20['  ]| studiously withheld.  The young man was very much bewildered.   
026:232,21['  ]| At last, after much rubbing of his chin and many  
026:232,22['  ]| blinkings of the eyes, Father*Butt asked what were Stephen's  
026:232,23['  ]| intentions ~~  
026:232,24[B  ]| ~~ Literature, 
026:232,24['  ]| said Stephen.   
026:232,25[G  ]| ~~ Yes, yes ~~ of course ~~ but meanwhile, I mean ~~  
026:232,26[G  ]| of course you will$1$ continue your course until you have got  
026:232,27[G  ]| a degree ~~ that$6#2$ is the important point.   
026:232,28[B  ]| ~~ I may not be able, 
026:232,28['  ]| said Stephen, 
026:232,28[B  ]| I suppose you know  
026:232,29[B  ]| that$3$ my father is unable to$9$ ~~  
026:232,30[G  ]| ~~ Now, 
026:232,30['  ]| said Father*Butt joyfull, 
026:232,30[G  ]| I am so$5#1$ glad you have come  
026:232,31[G  ]| to$4$ the point ~~ That$6#2$ is just it.  The question is whether we  
026:232,32[G  ]| can find anything for$4$ you to$9$ enable you to$9$ finish your course  
026:232,33[G  ]| here.  That$6#2$ is the question.   
026:232,34['  ]| Stephen said nothing.  He was convinced that$3$ Father*Butt  
026:232,35['  ]| had some offer or suggestion to$9$ make but he was determined  
026:232,36['  ]| not to$9$ help him in$4$ bringing it out.  Father*Butt continued  
026:233,01['  ]| blinking his eyes and rubbing his chin and murmuring to$4$  
026:233,02['  ]| himself 
026:233,02[G  ]| ""That$6#2$ is the difficulty you see"".  
026:233,02['  ]| In$4$ the end, 
026:233,03['  ]| as Stephen held his peace sacredly, Father*Butt said:   
026:233,04[G  ]| ~~ There might be ~~ it has just occurred to$4$ me ~~ an  
026:233,05[G  ]| appointment here in$4$ the college.  One or two hours a day  
026:233,06[G  ]| ~~ that$6#2$ would be nothing ~~ I think, yes ~~ we shall be ~~  
026:233,07[G  ]| let me see now ~~ It would be no$2$ trouble to$4$ you ~~ no$2$  
026:233,08[G  ]| teaching or drudgery, just an hour or so$5#2$ in$4$ the office here  
026:233,09[G  ]| in$4$ the morning ~~  
026:233,10['  ]| Stephen said nothing.  Father*Butt rubbed his hands  
026:233,11['  ]| together and said:   
026:233,12[G  ]| ~~ Otherwise there would be a danger of your perishing  
026:233,13[G  ]| ~~ by$4$ inanition ~~ Yes, a capital idea ~~ I shall speak to$4$  
026:233,14[G  ]| Father*Dillon this very night.   
026:233,15['  ]| Stephen, somewhat taken by$4$ surprise though he had  
026:233,16['  ]| anticipated some such proposal, murmured his thanks and  
026:233,17['  ]| Father*Butt promised to$9$ send him a letter in$4$ the course of a  
026:233,18['  ]| day or two.   
026:233,19['  ]| Stephen did not give a very full account of this interview  
026:233,20['  ]| to$4$ his father and mother:  he said that$3$ Father*Butt had been  
026:233,21['  ]| vague and had suggested that$3$ he should look for$4$ tuitions.   
026:233,22['  ]| Mr*Daedalus thought this a highly practical notion:   
026:233,23[J  ]| ~~ If you will$1$ only keep your head straight you can get  
026:233,24[J  ]| on$5$.  Keep in$4$ touch with those chaps, I tell you, those Jesuits:   
026:233,25[J  ]| they can get you on$5$ fast enough.  I am a few years older than  
026:233,26[J  ]| you.   
026:233,27[M  ]| ~~ I am sure they will$1$ do their best to$9$ help you, 
026:233,27['  ]| said Mrs*Daedalus.   
026:233,28['  ]| 
026:233,29[B  ]| ~~ I do not want their help, 
026:233,29['  ]| said Stephen bitterly.   
026:233,30['  ]| Mr*Daedalus put up$5$ his eyeglass and stared at his son  
026:233,31['  ]| and at his wife.  His wife began an apology:   
026:233,32[J  ]| ~~ Give it up$5$, woman, 
026:233,32['  ]| he said.  
026:233,32[J  ]| I know the groove he has  
026:233,33[J  ]| got into.  But he is not going to$9$ fool me nor his godfather, 
026:233,34[J  ]| either.  With the help of God I will$1$ not be long till I let \him\  
026:233,35[J  ]| know what a bloody nice atheist this fellow has turned out.   
026:233,36[J  ]| Hold hard now a moment and leave it to$4$ me.   
026:234,01['  ]| Stephen answered that$3$ he did not want his godfather's  
026:234,02['  ]| help either.   
026:234,03[J  ]| ~~ I know the groove you are in$4$, 
026:234,03['  ]| said his father.  
026:234,03[J  ]| Did not I  
026:234,04[J  ]| see you the morning of your poor sister's funeral ~~ do not  
026:234,05[J  ]| forget that$6#2$?  Unnatural bloody ruffian.  By$4$ Christ I was  
026:234,06[J  ]| ashamed of you that$6#2$ morning.  You could not behave like$4$ a  
026:234,07[J  ]| gentleman or talk or do a bloody thing only slink over  
026:234,08[J  ]| in$4$ a corner with the hearse-drivers and mutes by$4$ God.   
026:234,09[J  ]| Who$6#2$ taught you to$9$ drink pints of plain porter, might I ask?   
026:234,10[J  ]| Is that$6#2$ considered the proper thing for$4$ an ~~ a artist to$9$  
026:234,11[J  ]| do?   
026:234,12['  ]| Stephen clasped his hands together and looked across at  
026:234,13['  ]| Maurice who$6#1$ was convulsed with laughter.   
026:234,14[J  ]| ~~ What are you laughing at?  
026:234,14['  ]| said his father.  
026:234,14[J  ]| Everyone  
026:234,15[J  ]| knows you are only this fellow's jackal.   
026:234,16[K  ]| ~~ Stephen was thirsty, 
026:234,16['  ]| said Maurice.   
026:234,17[J  ]| ~~ By$4$ God, he will$1$ be hungry as well as thirsty one of these  
026:234,18[J  ]| days, if you ask me.   
026:234,19['  ]| Stephen gave details of his interview to$4$ Maurice:   
026:234,20[B  ]| ~~ Do not you think they are trying to$9$ buy me?  
026:234,20['  ]| he asked.   
026:234,21[K  ]| ~~ Yes, that$6#2$ is evident.  But I am surprised at one thing ~~  
026:234,22[B  ]| ~~ What is that$6#2$?   
026:234,23[K  ]| ~~ That$3$ the priest lost his temper when speaking to$4$  
026:234,24[K  ]| Mother.  You must have annoyed the good man a great  
026:234,25[K  ]| deal.   
026:234,26[B  ]| ~~ How do you know he lost his temper?   
026:234,27[K  ]| ~~ O, he must have when he suggested to$4$ her to$9$ put you  
026:234,28[K  ]| on$4$ the books of a brewery.  That$6#2$ gave the show away.  Anyhow  
026:234,29[K  ]| we can see what right these men have to$9$ call themselves  
026:234,30[K  ]| spiritual counsellors of their flocks ~~  
026:234,31[B  ]| ~~ Yes?   
026:234,32[K  ]| ~~ They can do nothing for$4$ a case like$4$ yours which$6#1$ presents  
026:234,33[K  ]| certain difficulties of temperament.  You might as well apply  
026:234,34[K  ]| to$4$ a policeman.   
026:234,35[B  ]| ~~ Perhaps his notion was that$3$ my mind was in$4$ such a  
026:234,36[B  ]| state of disorder that$3$ even routine would do it good.   
026:235,01[K  ]| ~~ I do not think that$6#2$ was his notion.  Besides they must all  
026:235,02[K  ]| be liars in$4$ that$6#2$ case for$3$ they have all expressed great admiration  
026:235,03[K  ]| for$4$ your clearness in$4$ argument.  A man's mind is not in$4$  
026:235,04[K  ]| intellectual disorder because it refuses assent to$4$ the doctrine  
026:235,05[K  ]| of the Blessed*Trinity.   
026:235,06[B  ]| ~~ By$4$ the way, 
026:235,06['  ]| said Stephen, 
026:235,06[B  ]| do you notice what understanding  
026:235,07[B  ]| and sympathy exist between me and my parents?   
026:235,08[K  ]| ~~ Is not it charming?   
026:235,09[B  ]| ~~ Yet, there are plenty of people who$6#1$ would consider them  
026:235,10[B  ]| my best friends for$4$ having advised me as they have done.  It  
026:235,11[B  ]| seems absurd to$9$ call them enemies or to$9$ denounce them.   
026:235,12[B  ]| They want me to$9$ secure what they consider happiness.  They  
026:235,13[B  ]| would like$1$ me to$9$ accept anything in$4$ the way of money at  
026:235,14[B  ]| whatever a cost to$4$ myself.   
026:235,15[K  ]| ~~ And will$1$ you accept?   
026:235,16[B  ]| ~~ If Cranly were here I know how he would put that$6#2$  
026:235,17[B  ]| question.   
026:235,18[K  ]| ~~ How?   
026:235,19[Z  ]| ~~ ""Of course, you will$1$ accept?"" 
026:235,20[K  ]| ~~ I have already told you my opinion of that$6#2$ young  
026:235,21[K  ]| gentleman, said Maurice tartly.   
026:235,22[B  ]| ~~ Lynch, too, would say 
026:235,22[Z  ]| ""You would be a damn fool if you  
026:235,23[Z  ]| did not take it"".   
026:235,24[K  ]| ~~ And what will$1$ you do?   
026:235,25[B  ]| ~~ Refuse it, of course.   
026:235,26[K  ]| ~~ I expected you would.   
026:235,27[B  ]| ~~ How could I take it?  
026:235,27['  ]| asked Stephen in$4$ astonishment.   
026:235,28[K  ]| ~~ Not well, I suppose.   
026:235,29['  ]| The following day a letter arrived for$4$ Stephen:   
026:235,30[GZ ]| Dear Mr*Daedalus, 
026:235,31[GZ ]| I have spoken to$4$ our President \re\ what we discussed a  
026:235,32[GZ ]| few days ago.  He is greatly interested in$4$ your case and  
026:235,33[GZ ]| would like$1$ to$9$ see you at the College any day this week  
026:235,34[GZ ]| between 2 and 3.  He thinks it may be possible to$9$ find  
026:235,35[GZ ]| something for$4$ you such as I suggested ~~ a few hours or  
026:236,01[GZ ]| so$5#2$ daily ~~ to$9$ enable you to$9$ \continue your studies\.  That$6#2$ is  
026:236,02[GZ ]| the main point.   
026:236,03[GZ ]| Sincerely Yours 
026:236,04[GZ ]| D%*Butt*S*J.   
026:236,05['  ]| Stephen did not call to$9$ see the President but replied to$4$  
026:236,06['  ]| Father*Butt by$4$ letter:   
026:236,07[BZ ]| Dear Father*Butt, 
026:236,08[BZ ]| Allow me to$9$ thank you for$4$ your kindness.  I am afraid, 
026:236,09[BZ ]| however, that$3$ I cannot accept your offer.  I am sure you  
026:236,10[BZ ]| will$1$ understand that$3$ in$4$ declining it I am acting as seems  
026:236,11[BZ ]| best to$4$ me and with every appreciation of the  
026:236,12[BZ ]| interest you have shown in$4$ me.   
026:236,13[BZ ]| Sincerely Yours 
026:236,14[BZ ]| Stephen*Daedalus.   
026:236,15['  ]| Stephen spent the great part of his summer on$4$ the rocks  
026:236,16['  ]| of the North*Bull.  Maurice spent the day there, stretching  
026:236,17['  ]| idly on$4$ the rocks or plunging into the water.  Stephen was  
026:236,18['  ]| now on$4$ excellent terms with his brother who$6#1$ seemed to$9$ have  
026:236,19['  ]| forgotten their estrangement.  At times Stephen would half  
026:236,20['  ]| clothe himself and cross to$4$ the shallow side of the Bull where  
026:236,21['  ]| he would wander up$5$ and down looking at the children and  
026:236,22['  ]| the nurses.  He used to$9$ stand to$9$ stare at them sometimes until  
026:236,23['  ]| the ash of his cigarette fell on$5$ to$4$ his coat but, though he saw  
026:236,24['  ]| all that$6#1$ was intended, he met no$2$ other Lucy:  and he usually  
026:236,25['  ]| returned to$4$ the Liffey side, somewhat amused at his dejection  
026:236,26['  ]| and thinking that$3$ if he had made his proposal to$4$ Lucy instead 
026:236,27['  ]| of to$4$ Emma he might have met with better luck.  But as often  
026:236,28['  ]| as not he encountered dripping Christian*Brothers or disguised  
026:236,29['  ]| policeman, apparitions which$6#1$ assured him that$3$  
026:236,30['  ]| whether Lucy or Emma was in$4$ question the answer was all  
026:236,31['  ]| one.  The two brothers walked home from Dollymount  
026:236,32['  ]| together.  They were both a little ragged-looking but they  
026:236,33['  ]| did not envy the trim dressed clerks who$6#1$ passed them  
026:236,34['  ]| on$4$ their way home.  When they came to$4$ Mr*Wilkinson's  
026:237,01['  ]| house they both paused outside to$9$ listen for$4$ sounds of  
026:237,02['  ]| wrangling and even when all seemed peaceful Maurice's first  
026:237,03['  ]| questions to$4$ his mother when she opened the door was 
026:237,03[K  ]| ""Is  
026:237,04[K  ]| he in$5$?""  
026:237,04['  ]| When the answer was ""No$7$"" they both went down to$4$  
026:237,05['  ]| the kitchen together but when the answer was ""Yes"" Stephen 
026:237,06['  ]| only went down, Maurice listening over the banisters to$9$  
026:237,07['  ]| judge from his father's tones whether he was sober or not.   
026:237,08['  ]| If his father was drunk Maurice retired to$4$ his bedroom but  
026:237,09['  ]| Stephen, who$6#1$ was untroubled, discoursed gaily with his  
026:237,10['  ]| father.  Their conversation always began:   
026:237,11[J  ]| ~~ Well 
026:237,11['  ]| (in$4$ a tone of extreme sarcasm) 
026:237,11[J  ]| might I ask where  
026:237,12[J  ]| were you all day?   
026:237,13[B  ]| ~~ At the Bull.   
026:237,14[J  ]| ~~ O 
026:237,14['  ]| (in$4$ a mollified tone)  
026:237,14[J  ]| Had a dip?   
026:237,15[B  ]| ~~ Yes.   
026:237,16[J  ]| ~~ Well, there is some sense in$4$ that$6#2$.  I like$1$ to$9$ see that$6#2$.  So$5#1$  
026:237,17[J  ]| long as you keep away from those \9canaille\ 
026:237,17['  ]| (in$4$ a suspicious  
026:237,18['  ]| tone).  
026:237,18[J  ]| Sure you were not with Knickerbockers or some of  
026:237,19[J  ]| those noblemen?   
026:237,20[B  ]| ~~ Quite sure.   
026:237,21[J  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ is all right.  That$6#2$ is all I want.  Keep away from  
026:237,22[J  ]| them ~~ Was Maurice with you?   
026:237,23[B  ]| ~~ Yes.   
026:237,24[J  ]| ~~ Where is he?   
026:237,25[B  ]| ~~ Upstairs, I think.   
026:237,26[J  ]| ~~ Why does not he come down here?   
026:237,27[B  ]| ~~ I do not know.   
026:237,28[J  ]| ~~ Hm ~~ 
026:237,28['  ]| (again in$4$ a tone of ruminative sarcasm) 
026:237,28[J  ]| By$4$  
026:237,29[J  ]| God, you are a loving pair of sons, you and your brother!   
026:237,30['  ]| Lynch pronounced Stephen all the asses in$4$ Christendom  
026:237,31['  ]| for$4$ having declined the Jesuits' offers:   
026:237,32[U  ]| ~~ Look at the nights you could have had!   
026:237,33[B  ]| ~~ You are a distressingly low-minded person, 
026:237,34['  ]| answered Stephen.  
026:237,34[B  ]| After all I have dinned into that$6#2$ mercantile head  
026:237,35[B  ]| of yours you are sure to$9$ come out on$4$ me with some atrocity.   
026:237,36[U  ]| ~~ But why did you refuse?  
026:237,36['  ]| said Lynch.   
026:238,01['  ]| The summer was nearly at an end and the evening had  
026:238,02['  ]| grown a little chilly.  Lynch was walking up$4$ and down the  
026:238,03['  ]| Library porch with his hands in$4$ his pockets and his chest  
026:238,04['  ]| well protruded.  Stephen kept at his side:   
026:238,05[B  ]| ~~ I am a young man, is not that$6#2$ so$5#2$?   
026:238,06[U  ]| ~~ That$6#2$ ~~ is ~~ so$5#2$.   
026:238,07[B  ]| ~~ Very well.  My entire aptitude is for$4$ the composition of  
026:238,08[B  ]| prose and verse.  Is not that$6#2$ so$5#2$?   
026:238,09[U  ]| ~~ Let us suppose it is.   
026:238,10[B  ]| ~~ Very good.  I was not intended to$9$ be a clerk in$4$ a  
026:238,11[B  ]| brewery.   
026:238,12[U  ]| ~~ I think it would be very dangerous to$9$ put you in$4$ a  
026:238,13[U  ]| brewery ~~ sometimes.   
026:238,14[B  ]| ~~ I was not intended for$4$ that$6#2$:  that$6#2$ is enough.  I went to$4$  
026:238,15[B  ]| this University day-school in$4$ order to$9$ meet men of a like$2$ age  
026:238,16[B  ]| and temper ~~ You know what I met.   
026:238,17['  ]| Lynch nodded his head in$4$ despair:   
026:238,18[B  ]| ~~ I found a day-school full of terrorised boys, banded  
026:238,19[B  ]| together in$4$ a complicity of diffidence.  They have eyes only  
026:238,20[B  ]| for$4$ their future jobs:  to$9$ secure their future jobs they will$1$  
026:238,21[B  ]| write themselves in$4$ and out of convictions, toil and labour to$9$  
026:238,22[B  ]| insinuate themselves into the good graces of the Jesuits.  They  
026:238,23[B  ]| adore Jesus and Mary and Joseph:  they believe in$4$ the infallibility  
026:238,24[B  ]| of the Pope and in$4$ all his obscene, stinking hells:   
026:238,25[B  ]| they desire the millennium which$6#1$ is to$9$ be  
026:238,26[B  ]| the season for$4$ glorified believers and fried atheists ~~ Sweet*Lord*Almighty!   
026:238,27[B  ]| Look at that$6#2$ beautiful pale sky!  Do you feel the cool wind  
026:238,28[B  ]| on$4$ your face?  Listen to$4$ our voices here in$4$ the porch ~~  
026:238,29[B  ]| not because they are mine or yours but because they  
026:238,30[B  ]| are human voices:  and does not all that$6#2$ tomfoolery fall off  
026:238,31[B  ]| you like$4$ water off a duck's back?   
026:238,32['  ]| Lynch nodded his head and Stephen continued:   
026:238,33[B  ]| ~~ It is absurd that$3$ I should go crawling and cringing  
026:238,34[B  ]| and praying and begging to$4$ mummers who$6#1$ are themselves no$2$  
026:238,35[B  ]| more than beggars.  Can we not root this pest out of our  
026:238,36[B  ]| minds and out of our society that$3$ men may be able to$9$ walk  
026:239,01[B  ]| through the streets without meeting some old stale  
026:239,02[B  ]| belief of hypocrisy at every street corner?  I, at least, will$1$ try.  I  
026:239,03[B  ]| will$1$ not accept anything from them.  I will$1$ not take service  
026:239,04[B  ]| under them.  I will$1$ not submit to$4$ them, either outwardly or  
026:239,05[B  ]| inwardly.  A Church is not a fixture like$4$ Gibraltar:  no$2$ more  
026:239,06[B  ]| is an institution.  Subtract its human members from it and its  
026:239,07[B  ]| solidity becomes less evident.  I, at least, will$1$ subtract  
026:239,08[B  ]| myself:  and remember that$3$ if we allow a dozen for$4$ one's  
026:239,09[B  ]| progeny the subtraction of oneself may mean a loss to$4$ the  
026:239,10[B  ]| Church of 12 members.   
026:239,11[U  ]| ~~ Are not you rather liberal about the progeny?  
026:239,11['  ]| said Lynch.   
026:239,12[B  ]| ~~ Did I tell you I met Father*Healy this evening?  
026:239,12['  ]| asked  
026:239,13['  ]| Stephen.   
026:239,14[U  ]| No$7$, where?   
026:239,15[B  ]| ~~ I was walking along the Canal with my Danish grammar  
026:239,16[B  ]| (because I am going to$9$ study it properly now.  I will$1$ tell you  
026:239,17[B  ]| why later on$5$) and whom should I meet but this little man.   
026:239,18[B  ]| He was walking right into the golden sunset:  all his  
026:239,19[B  ]| creases and wrinkles were scattered with gold.  He looked  
026:239,20[B  ]| at my book and said it was very interesting:  he thought it  
026:239,21[B  ]| must be so$5#1$ interesting to$9$ know and compare the different  
026:239,22[B  ]| languages.  Then he looked far away into the golden sun  
026:239,23[B  ]| and all of a sudden ~~ imagine! ~~ his mouth opened and he  
026:239,24[B  ]| gave a slow, noiseless yawn ~~ Do you know you get a kind  
026:239,25[B  ]| of shock when a man does a thing like$4$ that$6#2$ unexpectedly?   
026:239,26[U  ]| ~~ He will$1$ have something to$9$ do shortly, 
026:239,26['  ]| siad Lynch pointing  
026:239,27['  ]| to$4$ a little group which$6#1$ was laughing and chatting in$4$ the  
026:239,28['  ]| doorway, 
026:239,28[U  ]| and that$6#2$ will$1$ keep him from walking in$4$ his sleep.   
026:239,29['  ]| Stephen glanced over at the group.  Emma and Moynihan  
026:239,30['  ]| and McCann and two of the Miss*Daniels were evidently in$4$  
026:239,31['  ]| high spirits.   
026:239,32[B  ]| ~~ Yes, I suppose she will$1$ do it legitimately one of these  
026:239,33[B  ]| days, 
026:239,33['  ]| said Stephen.   
026:239,34[U  ]| ~~ I was talking of the other pair, 
026:239,34['  ]| said Lynch.   
026:239,35[B  ]| ~~ O, McCann ~~ She is nothing to$4$ me now, you know.   
026:239,36[U  ]| ~~ I do not believe that$6#2$, let me tell you.   
026:240,00['  ]| <\The additional pages of the Manuscript begin here\> 
026:240,01['  ]| <nations.  They were held out to$9$ say:  We are alone ~~ come:>   
026:240,02['  ]| <and the voices said with them:  We are your people:  and the>

026:240,07['  ]| fifty miles across the midlands of Ireland.  Mullingar, the  
026:240,08['  ]| chief town of Westmeath, is the midland capital and there  
026:240,09['  ]| is a great traffic of peasants and cattle between it and  
026:240,10['  ]| Dublin.  This fifty-mile journey is made by$4$ the train in$4$ about  
026:240,11['  ]| two hours and you are therefore to$9$ conceive Stephen*Daedalus  
026:240,12['  ]| packed in$4$ the corner of a third-class carriage and contributing  
026:240,13['  ]| the thin fumes of his cigarettes to$4$ the already reeking  
026:240,14['  ]| atmosphere.  The carriage was inhabited by$4$ a company of  
026:240,15['  ]| peasants nearly every one of whom had a bundle tied in$4$ a  
026:240,16['  ]| spotted handkerchief.  The carriage smelt strongly of peasants 
026:240,17['  ]| (an odour the debasing humanity of which$6#1$ Stephen  
026:240,18['  ]| remembered to$9$ have perceived in$4$ the little chapel of Clongowes  
026:240,19['  ]| on$4$ the morning of his first communion) and indeed so$5#1$  
026:240,20['  ]| pungently that$3$ the youth could not decide whether he found  
026:240,21['  ]| the odour of sweat offensive because the peasant  
026:240,22['  ]| sweat is monstrous or because it did not now proceed from  
026:240,23['  ]| his own body.  He was not ashamed to$9$ admit to$4$ himself that$3$  
026:240,24['  ]| he found it offensive for$4$ both of these reasons.   
026:240,25['  ]| The peasants played with blackened edgeless cards from  
026:240,26['  ]| Broadstone onward and whenever it was time for$4$ a peasant  
026:240,27['  ]| to$9$ leave the company he took up$5$ his bundle and went out  
026:240,28['  ]| heavily through the door of the carriage, never closing it  
026:240,29['  ]| behind him.  The peasants spoke little and rarely looked at 
026:240,30['  ]| the scene they passed but when they came to$4$ Maynooth*Station  
026:241,01['  ]| a gentleman dressed in$4$ a frock-coat and tall hat who$6#1$  
026:241,02['  ]| was giving loud directions to$4$ a porter concerning a case of  
026:241,03['  ]| machines attracted their wondering attention for$4$ several  
026:241,04['  ]| minutes.   
026:241,05['  ]| At Mullingar Stephen took his neat little valise down  
026:241,06['  ]| from the rack and descended to$4$ the platform.  When he had  
026:241,07['  ]| passed through the claws 
026:241,00['  ]| <\Two pages missing\> 
026:241,08['  ]| of Lough*Owel.  The lodge was a whitewashed cottage at  
026:241,09['  ]| the door of which$6#1$ a little child in$4$ a chemise sat eating a big  
026:241,10['  ]| crust of bread.  The gate was open and the trap turned up$4$  
026:241,11['  ]| the drive.  After a circular tour of a few hundred yards the 
026:241,12['  ]| trap reached the door of the old discoloured house.   
026:241,13['  ]| As the trap drew up$5$ to$4$ the door a young woman advanced  
026:241,14['  ]| to$9$ meet it with a quiet dignified gait.  She was dressed completely  
026:241,15['  ]| in$4$ black and her dark hair was brushed plainly off  
026:241,16['  ]| her temples.  She held out her hand:   
026:241,17[W  ]| ~~ Welcome, 
026:241,17['  ]| she said.  
026:241,17[W  ]| My uncle is in$4$ the orchard.  We  
026:241,18[W  ]| heard the noise of the wheels.   
026:241,19['  ]| Stephen touched her hand slightly and bowed.   
026:241,20[W  ]| ~~ Dan, leave that$6#2$ valise in$4$ the hall for$4$ the present and  
026:241,21[W  ]| you, Mr*Daedalus, are to$9$ come along with me.  I hope you  
026:241,22[W  ]| are not fatigued by$4$ your journey:  it is so$5#1$ tiresome travelling.   
026:241,23[B  ]| ~~ Not in$4$ the least.   
026:241,24['  ]| She led the way along the hall and through a little glass  
026:241,25['  ]| door into a great square orchard, the nearer half of which$6#1$  
026:241,26['  ]| was still a sunny region.  Here, screened by$4$ a broad straw  
026:241,27['  ]| hat, Mr*Fulham was discovered sitting in$4$ a basket-chair.   
026:241,28['  ]| He greeted Stephen very warmly and made the usual polite  
026:241,29['  ]| enquiries.  Miss*Howard had brought out a little tray containing  
026:241,30['  ]| fruit and milk and the visitor gladly ate and drank 
026:241,31['  ]| for$4$ the dust of the roads had invaded his throat.  Mr*Fulham  
026:241,32['  ]| asked a great many questions about Stephen's  
026:241,33['  ]| studies and tastes while Miss*Howard stood beside his chair  
026:241,34['  ]| in$4$ silence.  At a pause in$4$ the interrogation she took up$5$ the  
026:242,01['  ]| tray and carried it into the house.  When she came back she  
026:242,02['  ]| offered to$9$ show Stephen the orchard and, Mr*Fulham  
026:242,03['  ]| returning at the same moment to$4$ his newspaper, she led  
026:242,04['  ]| the way down a walk of currant-bushes.  Stephen had found  
026:242,05['  ]| his godfather's questions a somewhat severe ordeal and he  
026:242,06['  ]| revenged himself on$4$ Miss*Howard by$4$ a counter-fire of  
026:242,07['  ]| questions concerning the names and seasons and prospects  
026:242,08['  ]| of her plants.  She answered all his questions carefully but  
026:242,09['  ]| with the same air of indifferent exactness which$6#1$ marked all  
026:242,10['  ]| her acts.  Her presence did not awe him as it had done when  
026:242,11['  ]| he had last met her and he thought that$3$ perhaps the uncontaminated  
026:242,12['  ]| nature which$6#1$ he had then imagined accusing  
026:242,13['  ]| him was no$2$ more than an unusual dignity of manner.  He 
026:242,14['  ]| did not find this dignity of hers very congenial and his new  
026:242,15['  ]| fervour of youth was vitally piqued by$4$ her lack of animation.   
026:242,16['  ]| He decided in$4$ favour of some definite purpose of hers and  
026:242,17['  ]| against a mechanical discharge of duties and said to$4$  
026:242,18['  ]| himself that$3$ it would be an intellectual game for$4$ him to$9$ discover  
026:242,19['  ]| it.  He set this task to$4$ himself all the more readily  
026:242,20['  ]| since he suspected that$3$ this purpose guiding her conduct  
026:242,21['  ]| must be inimical to$4$ his present genial impulses and would 
026:242,22['  ]| probably elude him out of instantaneous distrust and seek  
026:242,23['  ]| natural safety in$4$ flight.  This fugitive impulse would be prey  
026:242,24['  ]| for$4$ him and at once he summoned all his faculties to$4$ the chase.   
026:242,25['  ]| Dinner was served at half past six in$4$ a long plainly-furnished  
026:242,26['  ]| room.  The table spread under a tall lamp of  
026:242,27['  ]| elegant silver-work wore an air a chaste elegance.  It was a  
026:242,28['  ]| slight trial on$4$ Stephen's hunger to$9$ accept these cold manners  
026:242,29['  ]| and in$4$ the warmth of his relish for$4$ food he condemned this  
026:242,30['  ]| strange attitude of human beings ungrateful and unnatural.   
026:242,31['  ]| The conversation was also a little mincing and  
026:242,32['  ]| Stephen heard the words ""charming"" and ""nice"" and ""pretty""  
026:242,33['  ]| too often to$9$ find them agreeable.  He discovered the weak  
026:242,34['  ]| point in$4$ Mr*Fulham's armour very soon; Mr*Fulham, like$4$ 
026:242,35['  ]| most of his countrymen, was a persuaded politician.   
026:242,36['  ]| Most of Mr*Fulham's neighbours were primitive types and he, 
026:243,01['  ]| in$4$ spite of the narrowness of his ideas, was regarded by$4$ them  
026:243,02['  ]| as a man of ripe culture.  In$4$ a discussion which$6#1$ took place  
026:243,03['  ]| over a game of 9be'zique Stephen heard his godfather explain  
026:243,04['  ]| to$4$ a more rustic proprietor the nature of the work done by$4$  
026:243,05['  ]| the missionary fathers in$4$ civilising the Chinese people.  He  
026:243,06['  ]| sustained the propositions that$3$ the Church is also the chief  
026:243,07['  ]| repository of secular culture and that$3$ the tradition of learning  
026:243,08['  ]| must derive from the monks.  He saw in$4$ the pride of the  
026:243,09['  ]| Church the only refuge of men against a threatening democracy  
026:243,10['  ]| and said that$3$ Aquinas had anticipated all the discoveries  
026:243,11['  ]| of the modern world.  His neighbour was puzzled  
026:243,12['  ]| to$9$ discover the whereabouts of the souls of the Chinese people  
026:243,13['  ]| in$4$ the other life but Mr*Fulham left the problem at the door 
026:243,14['  ]| of God's mercy.  At this stage of the discussion Miss*Howard, 
026:243,15['  ]| hitherto silent, said that$3$ there were three kinds of baptism  
026:243,16['  ]| and her statement was accepted as a closure.   
026:243,17['  ]| Stephen was a long time in$4$ doubt as to$4$ the motive of his  
026:243,18['  ]| godfather's patronage.  The second day after his arrival as  
026:243,19['  ]| they were driving back from a tennis-tournament Mr*Fulham  
026:243,20['  ]| said to$4$ him.   
026:243,21[V  ]| ~~ Is not Mr*Tate your English professor, Stephen?   
026:243,22[B  ]| ~~ Yes, sir.   
026:243,23[V  ]| ~~ His people are Westmeath.  We often see him during  
026:243,24[V  ]| holiday time.  He seems to$9$ take a great interest in$4$ you.   
026:243,25[B  ]| ~~ O, you know him then?   
026:243,26[V  ]| ~~ Yes.  He is laid up$5$ at present with a bad knee or I would  
026:243,27[V  ]| write to$4$ him to$9$ come over here.  Perhaps we may drive over  
026:243,28[V  ]| to$9$ see him one of these days ~~ He is a very well-read man, 
026:243,29[V  ]| Stephen.   
026:243,30[B  ]| ~~ Yes, 
026:243,30['  ]| said Stephen.   
026:243,31['  ]| Tennis-tournaments, military bands, rustic cricket-matches, 
026:243,32['  ]| little flower shows were resorted to$5$ for$4$  
026:243,33['  ]| Stephen's entertainment.  At these functions he remarked that$3$ 
026:243,34['  ]| his godfather was very openly humoured and Miss*Howard  
026:243,35['  ]| very respectfully courted and he began to$9$ suspect that$3$ there  
026:243,36['  ]| was money somewhere in$4$ the background.  These entertainments  
026:244,01['  ]| did not amuse the youth; his manner was so$5#1$ quiet  
026:244,02['  ]| that$3$ often he passed unnoticed and remained unintroduced.   
026:244,03['  ]| Sometimes an officer would send a glance of impolite inquiry  
026:244,04['  ]| at the cheap-looking white shoes he wore but Stephen 
026:244,05['  ]| always looked his enemy in$4$ the face.  After a short trial of  
026:244,06['  ]| eyes the youth could usually procure a truce.  He was surprised  
026:244,07['  ]| to$9$ find that$3$ Miss*Howard discharged her social duties  
026:244,08['  ]| with such apparent goodwill.  He was displeased and disappointed 
026:244,09['  ]| to$9$ hear her make a pun one day ~~ a pun which$6#1$  
026:244,10['  ]| though it was not very clever raised a polite  
026:244,11['  ]| laugh from two scrupulous lieutenants.  Mr*Fulham was  
026:244,12['  ]| old and honoured enough to$9$ allow himself the luxury of admonishing  
026:244,13['  ]| publicly whenever occasion arose.  One  
026:244,14['  ]| day an officer told a humorous story which$6#1$ was intended to$9$  
026:244,15['  ]| poke fun at countrified ideas:   
026:244,16['  ]| The story was this.  The officer and a friend found themselves  
026:244,17['  ]| one evening surprised by$4$ a heavy shower far out on$4$  
026:244,18['  ]| the Killucan*road and forced to$9$ take refuge in$4$ a peasant's  
026:244,19['  ]| cabin.  An old man was seated at the side of the fire smoking  
026:244,20['  ]| a dirty cutty-pipe which$6#1$ he held upside down in$4$ the corner  
026:244,21['  ]| of his mouth.  The old peasant invited his visitors to$9$ come  
026:244,22['  ]| near the fire as the evening was chilly and said he could not  
026:244,23['  ]| stand up$5$ to$9$ welcome them decently as he had the rheumatics.   
026:244,24['  ]| The officer's friend who$6#1$ was a learned young lady  
026:244,25['  ]| observed a figure scrawled in$4$ chalk over the fireplace and  
026:244,26['  ]| asked what it was.  The peasant said:   
026:244,27[V  ]| ~~ Me grandson Johnny done that$6#2$ the time the circus was  
026:244,28[V  ]| in$4$ the town.  He seen the pictures on$4$ the walls and began  
026:244,29[V  ]| pesterin' his mother for$4$ fourpence to$9$ see the elephants.  But  
026:244,30[V  ]| sure when he got in$5$ and all divil elephant was in$4$ it.  But it  
026:244,31[V  ]| was him drew that$6#2$ there.   
026:244,32['  ]| The young lady laughed and the old man blinked his red  
026:244,33['  ]| eyes at the fire and went on$5$ smoking evenly and talking to$4$  
026:244,34['  ]| himself:   
026:244,35[V  ]| ~~ I have heerd tell them elephants is most natural things, 
026:245,01[V  ]| that$3$ they has the notions of a Christian ~~ I wanse seen  
026:245,02[V  ]| meself a picture of niggers riding on$4$ wan of them ~~ aye and  
026:245,03[V  ]| beating blazes out of 'im with a stick.  Begorra ye would have  
026:245,04[V  ]| more trouble with the childre is in$4$ it now that$3$ with one of  
026:245,05[V  ]| thim big fellows.   
026:245,06['  ]| The young lady who$6#1$ was much amused began to$9$ tell the  
026:245,07['  ]| peasant about the animals of prehistoric times.  The old man  
026:245,08['  ]| heard her out in$4$ silence and then said slowly:   
026:245,09[V  ]| ~~ Aw, there must be terrible quare craythurs at the  
026:245,10[V  ]| latther ind of the world.   
026:245,11['  ]| Stephen thought that$3$ the officer told this story very well  
026:245,12['  ]| and he joined in$5$ the laugh that$6#1$ followed it.  But Mr*Fulham  
026:245,13['  ]| was not of his opinion and spoke out against the moral of the  
026:245,14['  ]| story rather sententiously.   
026:245,15[V  ]| ~~ It is easy to$9$ laugh at the peasant.  He is ignorant of  
026:245,16[V  ]| many things which$6#1$ the world thinks important.  But we  
026:245,17[V  ]| must not forget at the same time, Captain*Starkie, that$3$ the  
026:245,18[V  ]| peasant stands perhaps nearer to$4$ the true ideal of a  
026:245,19[V  ]| Christian life than many of us who$6#1$ condemn him.   
026:245,20[V  ]| ~~ I do not condemn him, 
026:245,20['  ]| answered Captain*Starkie, 
026:245,20[V  ]| but  
026:245,21[V  ]| I am amused.   
026:245,22[V  ]| ~~ Our Irish peasantry, 
026:245,22['  ]| continued Mr*Fulham with conviction, 
026:245,23[V  ]| is the backbone of the nation.   
026:245,24['  ]| Backbone or not, it was in$4$ the constant observance of the  
026:245,25['  ]| peasantry that$6#1$ Stephen chiefly delighted.  Physically, 
026:245,00['  ]| <\One page missing\> 
026:245,26['  ]| doorway, gazed at him and answered:   
026:245,27[V  ]| ~~ No$7$, sir.   
026:245,28[V  ]| ~~ O yes it was, though.   
026:245,29['  ]| The beggar thrust his malign face down at their faces and  
026:245,30['  ]| began moving his stick up$5$ and down.   
026:245,31[V  ]| ~~ But mind what I am tellin' you.  Do you see that$6#2$ stick?   
026:246,01[V  ]| ~~ Yes, sir.   
026:246,02[V  ]| ~~ Well, if ye call out after me the next time I will$1$ cut  
026:246,03[V  ]| yez open with that$6#2$ stick.  I will$1$ cut the livers out of ye.   
026:246,04['  ]| He proceeded to$9$ explain himself to$4$ the frightened children.   
026:246,05[V  ]| ~~ Do ye hear me now?  I will$1$ cut yez open with that$6#2$ stick.   
026:246,06[V  ]| I will$1$ cut the livers and the lights out of ye.   
026:246,07['  ]| This incident was stolidly admired by$4$ a few bystanders  
026:246,08['  ]| who$6#1$ made way for$4$ the beggar as he limped along the footpath.   
026:246,09['  ]| Dan, who$6#1$ had watched the scene from the trap, now descended  
026:246,10['  ]| to$4$ the ground and asking Stephen to$9$ look to$4$ the  
026:246,11['  ]| horse went into a very dirty public-house.  Stephen sat  
026:246,12['  ]| alone in$4$ the car thinking of the beggar's face.  He had never  
026:246,13['  ]| before seen such evil expressed in$4$ a face.  He had sometimes 
026:246,14['  ]| watched the faces of prefects as they ""pandied"" boys with a  
026:246,15['  ]| broad leather bat but those faces had seemed to$4$ him less  
026:246,16['  ]| malicious than stupid, dutifully inflamed faces.  The recolection  
026:246,17['  ]| of the beggar's sharp eyes struck a fine chord of terror  
026:246,18['  ]| in$4$ the youth and he set himself to$9$ whistle away the keen  
026:246,19['  ]| throb of it.   
026:246,20['  ]| After a few minutes a fat young man with a very red  
026:246,21['  ]| head came out of the druggist's shop holding two neat parcels.   
026:246,22['  ]| Stephen recognized Nash and Nash testified that$3$ he  
026:246,23['  ]| recognized Stephen by$4$ changing complexion very painfully.   
026:246,24['  ]| Stephen could have enjoyed his old enemy's discomfiture  
026:246,25['  ]| had he chosen but disdaining to$9$ do so$5#2$ he held out his hand  
026:246,26['  ]| instead.  Nash was junior assistant in$4$ the shop and when he 
026:246,27['  ]| learned that$3$ Stephen was on$4$ a visit to$4$ Mr*Fulham his  
026:246,28['  ]| manner was tinged with discreet respectfulness.  Stephen, 
026:246,29['  ]| however, soon put him at his ease and when Dan emerged 
026:246,30['  ]| from the grimy public-house the two were engaged in$4$  
026:246,31['  ]| familiar chat.  Nash said Mullingar was the last place God  
026:246,32['  ]| made, a God-forgotten hole, and asked Stephen how he  
026:246,33['  ]| could stick it.   
026:246,34[V  ]| ~~ I only wish I was back again in$4$ Dublin, that$6#2$ is all I know.   
026:246,35[B  ]| ~~ How do you amuse yourself here?  
026:246,35['  ]| asked Stephen.   
026:246,36[V  ]| ~~ Amuse yourself!  You can not.  There is nothing here.   
026:247,01[B  ]| ~~ But have not you concerts sometimes?  The first day I  
026:247,02[B  ]| came here I saw some bills up$5$ about a concert.   
026:247,03[V  ]| ~~ O, that$6#2$ is off.  Father*Lohan put the boots on$4$ that$6#2$ ~~ the  
026:247,04[V  ]| P%*P% you know.   
026:247,05[B  ]| ~~ Why did he?   
026:247,06[V  ]| ~~ O, you better ask him that$6#2$.  He says his parishioners  
026:247,07[V  ]| do not want comic songs and skirt dances.  If they want a  
026:247,08[V  ]| decent concert, he says, they can get one up$5$ in$4$ the schoolhouse, 
026:247,09[V  ]| ~~ O, he bosses them, I tell you.   
026:247,10[B  ]| ~~ O, is that$6#2$ the way?   
026:247,11[V  ]| ~~ They are afraid of their life of him.  If he hears any  
026:247,12[V  ]| dancing in$4$ a house at night he raps at the window and pouf!   
026:247,13[V  ]| out goes the candle.   
026:247,14[B  ]| ~~ By$4$ Jove!   
026:247,15[V  ]| ~~ Fact.  You know he has a collection of girls' hats.   
026:247,16[B  ]| ~~ Girls' hats!   
026:247,17[V  ]| ~~ Yes.  Of an evening when the girls go out walking with  
026:247,18[V  ]| the soldiers he goes out too and any girl he catches hold of  
026:247,19[V  ]| he snaps off her hat and takes it back with him to$4$ the priest's  
026:247,20[V  ]| house then if the girl goes to$9$ ask him for$4$ it he gives her a  
026:247,21[V  ]| proper blowing-up.   
026:247,22[B  ]| ~~ Good man!  ~~ Well, we must be off now.  I suppose  
026:247,23[B  ]| I will$1$ see you again.   
026:247,24[V  ]| ~~ Come in$5$ tomorrow, will$1$ you:  it is a short day.  And I will$1$  
026:247,25[V  ]| tell you I will$1$ introduce you to$4$ a friend of mine here ~~ very  
026:247,26[V  ]| decent sort ~~ on$4$ the \Examiner\.  You will$1$ like$1$ him.   
026:247,27[B  ]| ~~ Very good.  Until then!   
026:247,28[V  ]| ~~ So$5#1$ long!  About two o'clock.   
026:247,29['  ]| As they drove home together Stephen asked Dan some  
026:247,30['  ]| questions which$6#1$ Dan pretended not to$9$ hear and when  
026:247,31['  ]| Stephen pressed him for$4$ answers he gave the shortest possible 
026:247,32['  ]| answers.  It was plain that$3$ he did not care to$9$ discuss his  
026:247,33['  ]| spiritual superior and Stephen had to$9$ desist.   
026:247,34['  ]| That$6#2$ evening at dinner Mr*Fulham was in$4$ genial spirits  
026:248,01['  ]| and began to$9$ address his conversation pointedly to$4$ Stephen.   
026:248,02['  ]| Mr*Fulham's method of ""drawing"" his interlocutor was not  
026:248,03['  ]| a very delicate method but Stephen saw what was expected  
026:248,04['  ]| of him and merely waited till he was directly addressed.  A  
026:248,05['  ]| neighbour had come to$4$ dinner, a Mr*Heffernan.  Mr*Heffernan 
026:248,06['  ]| was not at all of his host's way of thinking and 
026:248,07['  ]| therefore the evening brought out some lively disputes.  Mr*Heffernan's 
026:248,08['  ]| son was learning Irish because he believed that$3$ 
026:248,09['  ]| the Irish people should speak their own language and not  
026:248,10['  ]| the language of their conquerors.   
026:248,11[V  ]| ~~ But the people of the United*States who$6#1$ are more  
026:248,12[V  ]| emancipated than Ireland is ever likely to$9$ be are content to$9$  
026:248,13[V  ]| speak English, 
026:248,13['  ]| said Mr*Fulham.   
026:248,14[V  ]| ~~ The Americans are different.  They have no$2$ language to$9$  
026:248,15[V  ]| revive.   
026:248,16[V  ]| ~~ For$4$ my part I am content with my conquerors.   
026:248,17[V  ]| ~~ Because you occupy a good position under them.  You  
026:248,18[V  ]| are not a labourer.  You enjoy the fruits of Nationalist  
026:248,19[V  ]| agitation.   
026:248,20[V  ]| ~~ Perhaps you are going to$9$ tell me that$3$ all men are equal, 
026:248,21['  ]| said Mr*Fulham satirically.   
026:248,22[V  ]| ~~ In$4$ a sense they may be.   
026:248,23[V  ]| ~~ Nonsense, my dear sir.  Our countrymen know nothing  
026:248,24[V  ]| of the Reformation, as they call it, and I hope they will$1$  
026:248,25[V  ]| know nothing of the French*Revolution either.   
026:248,26['  ]| Mr*Heffernan returned to$4$ the charge.   
026:248,27[V  ]| ~~ But surely it is no$2$ harm for$4$ them to$9$ know something  
026:248,28[V  ]| about their country ~~ its traditions, its local history, its language!   
026:248,29[V  ]| 
026:248,30[V  ]| ~~ For$4$ those who$6#1$ have leisure it may be good!  But you  
026:248,31[V  ]| know I am a great enemy of disloyal movements.  Our lot is  
026:248,32[V  ]| thrown in$5$ with England.   
026:248,33[V  ]| ~~ The young generation is not of your opinion.  My son, Pat, 
026:248,34[V  ]| is studying in$4$ Clonliffe at present and he tells me all the  
026:248,35[V  ]| young students there, those who$6#1$ are to$9$ be our priests afterwards, 
026:248,36[V  ]| have these ideas.   
026:249,01[V  ]| ~~ The Catholic*Church, my dear sir, will$1$ never incite to$4$  
026:249,02[V  ]| rebellion.  But here is one of the young generation.  Let him  
026:249,03[V  ]| speak.   
026:249,04[B  ]| ~~ I care nothing for$4$ these principles of nationalism, 
026:249,04['  ]| said  
026:249,05['  ]| Stephen.  
026:249,05[B  ]| I have enough bodily liberty.   
026:249,06[V  ]| ~~ But do you feel no$2$ duty to$4$ your mother-country, no$2$ love  
026:249,07[V  ]| for$4$ her?  
026:249,07['  ]| asked Mr*Heffernan 
026:249,08[B  ]| ~~ Honestly, I do not.   
026:249,09[V  ]| ~~ You live then like$4$ an animal without reason!  
026:249,09['  ]| exclaimed  
026:249,10['  ]| Mr*Heffernan.   
026:249,11[B  ]| ~~ My own mind, 
026:249,11['  ]| answered Stephen, 
026:249,11[B  ]| is more interesting to$4$  
026:249,12[B  ]| me than the entire country.   
026:249,13[V  ]| ~~ Perhaps you think your mind is more important than  
026:249,14[V  ]| Ireland!   
026:249,15[B  ]| ~~ I do, certainly.   
026:249,16[V  ]| ~~ These are strange ideas of your godson's, Mr*Fulham.   
026:249,17[V  ]| May I ask did the Jesuits teach you them.  
026:249,18[B  ]| ~~ The Jesuits taught me other things, reading and writing.   
026:249,19[V  ]| ~~ And religion also?   
026:249,20[B  ]| ~~ Naturally.  
026:249,20[Z  ]| ""What doth it profit a man to$9$ gain the whole  
026:249,21[Z  ]| world if he lose his soul?"" 
026:249,22[V  ]| ~~ Nothing, of course.  That$6#2$ is quite so$5#2$.  But humanity has  
026:249,23[V  ]| claims on$4$ us.  We have a duty to$4$ our neighbour.  We have  
026:249,24[V  ]| received a commandment of charity.   
026:249,25[B  ]| ~~ I hear so$5#2$, 
026:249,25['  ]| said Stephen, 
026:249,25[B  ]| at Christmas.  
026:249,25['  ]| Mr*Fulham  
026:249,26['  ]| laughed at this and Mr*Heffernan was stung.  
026:249,27[V  ]| ~~ I may not have read as much as you, Mr*Fulham, or  
026:249,28[V  ]| even as much as you, young man, but I believe that$3$ the  
026:249,29[V  ]| noblest love a man can 
026:249,00['  ]| <\One page missing> 
026:249,30[V  ]| our duty to$4$ God first and then the duties of our station in$4$  
026:249,31[V  ]| life, 
026:249,31['  ]| said Mr*Fulham, leaning comfortably on$4$ the last phrase.   
026:249,32[B  ]| ~~ You can be a patriot, Mr*Heffernan, 
026:249,32['  ]| said Stephen, 
026:249,33[B  ]| without accusing those who$6#1$ do not agree with you of  
026:249,34[B  ]| irreligion.   
026:250,01[V  ]| ~~ I never accused ~~  
026:250,02[V  ]| ~~ Come now, 
026:250,02['  ]| said Mr*Fulham genially, 
026:250,02[V  ]| we all understand  
026:250,03[V  ]| each other.   
026:250,04['  ]| Stephen had enjoyed this little skirmish:  it had been a  
026:250,05['  ]| pastime for$4$ him to$9$ turn the guns of orthodoxy upon$4$ the  
026:250,06['  ]| orthodox ranks and see how they would stand the fire.  Mr*Heffernan  
026:250,07['  ]| seemed to$4$ him a typical Irishman of the provinces;  
026:250,08['  ]| assertive and fearful, sentimental and rancourous, idealist  
026:250,09['  ]| in$4$ speech and realist in$4$ conduct.  Mr*Fulham was harder to$9$  
026:250,10['  ]| understand.  His championing of the Irish peasant was full 
026:250,11['  ]| of zealous patronage, his ardour for$4$ the Church was implicit  
026:250,12['  ]| with his respect for$4$ feudal distinctions, and his natural submission  
026:250,13['  ]| to$4$ what he regarded as the dispenser of these distinctions.   
026:250,14['  ]| He would enforce his aristocratic notions in$4$ a homely  
026:250,15['  ]| way:   
026:250,16[V  ]| ~~ Come now, Mr*So*and*So, you buy cattle on$4$ fair-day  
026:250,17[V  ]| in$4$ the town?   
026:250,18[V  ]| ~~ Yes.   
026:250,19[V  ]| ~~ And you go the racecourse and make a bet or two as  
026:250,20[V  ]| you fancy?   
026:250,21[V  ]| ~~ I must admit I do.   
026:250,22[V  ]| ~~ And you pride yourself on$4$ knowing a thing or two about  
026:250,23[V  ]| coursing?   
026:250,24[V  ]| ~~ I think I do.   
026:250,25[V  ]| ~~ Then how can you say there is no$2$ aristocracy of breed in$4$  
026:250,26[V  ]| men since you know it exists in$4$ animals?   
026:250,27['  ]| Mr*Fulham's pride was the pride of the burgher in$4$ the  
026:250,28['  ]| costly burdensome canopy which$6#1$ he has exerted and loves  
026:250,29['  ]| to$9$ sustain.  He had affection for$4$ the feudal machinery and  
026:250,30['  ]| desired nothing better than that$3$ it should crush him ~~ a  
026:250,31['  ]| common wish of the human adorer whether he cast himself  
026:250,32['  ]| under Juggernaut or pray God with tears of affection to$9$  
026:250,33['  ]| mortify him or swoon under the hand of his mistress.  To$4$  
026:250,34['  ]| the sensitive inferior his charity would have offered intolerable  
026:250,35['  ]| pain of mind and yet the giver would use neither the  
026:251,01['  ]| air nor the language of the self-righteous.  His conceptions of  
026:251,02['  ]| human relations might perhaps have passed for$4$ a  
026:251,03['  ]| progressive conception in$4$ the ages when the earth was  
026:251,04['  ]| thought to$9$ be scaphoid and had he lived then he might have  
026:251,05['  ]| been reputed the most enlightened of  
026:251,06['  ]| slave-owners.  As Stephen watched the old man gravely  
026:251,07['  ]| handing his snuff-box to$4$ Mr*Heffernan, and the latter perforce  
026:251,08['  ]| appeased, inserting a large hand therein he  
026:251,09['  ]| thought:   
026:251,10@b   | ~~ My godfather is the Papal ambassador to$4$ Westmeath.   
026:251,11['  ]| Nash was waiting for$4$ him at the door of the shop and they  
026:251,12['  ]| walked down the main street together towards the \Examiner\  
026:251,13['  ]| office.  In$4$ the window a white fox-terrier's 
026:251,14['  ]| head could be seen over a dirty brown blind and his intelligent  
026:251,15['  ]| eyes were the only signs of life in$4$ the office.  Mr*Garvey  
026:251,16['  ]| was sent for$5$ and presently sent in$5$ word that$3$ his two visitors  
026:251,17['  ]| were to$9$ come into the \Greville*Arms\.  Mr*Garvey was found  
026:251,18['  ]| sitting at the bar with his hat pushed far back from a glowing  
026:251,19['  ]| forehead.  He was ""chaffing"" the barmaid but when his  
026:251,20['  ]| visitors entered he stood up$5$ and shook hands with them.   
026:251,21['  ]| Then he insisted on$4$ their joining him in$4$ a drink.  The barmaid 
026:251,22['  ]| was ""chaffed"" again by$4$ Mr*Garvey and by$4$ Nash but  
026:251,23['  ]| always within limits.  She was a genteel young person of a  
026:251,24['  ]| very tempting figure.  While she was polishing glasses she  
026:251,25['  ]| indulged in$4$ flirty, gossipy conversation with the young men:   
026:251,26['  ]| she seemed to$9$ have the life of the town at her fingers' ends.   
026:251,27['  ]| She reproved Mr*Garvey once or twice for$4$ levity and asked  
026:251,28['  ]| Stephen was not it a shame for$4$ a married man.  Stephen said  
026:251,29['  ]| it was and began to$9$ count the buttons of her blouse.  The  
026:251,30['  ]| barmaid said Stephen was a nice sensible young man not a  
026:251,31['  ]| gadabout fellow and smiled very sweetly over her brisk  
026:251,32['  ]| napkin.  After a while the young men left the bar, first 
026:251,33['  ]| touching the fingertips of the barmaid and raising their hats.   
026:251,34['  ]| Mr*Garvey whistled the terrier out of the office and they  
026:251,35['  ]| set off for$4$ a walk.  Mr*Garvey wore heavy boots and he  
026:251,36['  ]| plodded along sturdily in$4$ them, tapping the road with his  
026:252,01['  ]| stick.  The road and the actual sultry day had made him  
026:252,02['  ]| sensible and he gave the younger men some sound advice.   
026:252,03[V  ]| ~~ After all, there is nothing like$4$ marriage for$4$ making a  
026:252,04[V  ]| fellow steady.  Before I got this sit on$4$ the \Examiner\ here I  
026:252,05[V  ]| used knock about with the lads and boose bit ~~ You  
026:252,06[V  ]| know, 
026:252,06['  ]| he said to$4$ Nash ~~ sh nodded.   
026:252,07[V  ]| ~~ Now I have a good house, 
026:252,07['  ]| said Mr*Garvey, 
026:252,07[V  ]| and ~~ I go  
026:252,08[V  ]| home in$4$ the evening and if I want a drink ~~ well, I can  
026:252,09[V  ]| have it.  My advice to$4$ every young fellow that$6#1$ can afford it  
026:252,10[V  ]| is:  marry young.   
026:252,11[V  ]| ~~ There is something in$4$ that$6#2$, 
026:252,11['  ]| said Nash, 
026:252,11[V  ]| when you have had  
026:252,12[V  ]| your fling, that$6#2$ is.   
026:252,13[V  ]| ~~ O, yes, 
026:252,13['  ]| said Mr*Garvey.  
026:252,13[V  ]| By*the*bye I hope you will$1$ come  
026:252,14[V  ]| and see me some evening and bring your friend.  You will$1$  
026:252,15[V  ]| come, Mr*Daedalus?  The missus will$1$ be glad to$9$ see you:  she  
026:252,16[V  ]| plays a bit, you know.   
026:252,17['  ]| Stephen mumbled his thanks and decided that$3$ he would  
026:252,18['  ]| endure severe bodily pain rather than visit Mr*Garvey.   
026:252,19['  ]| Mr*Garvey began then to$9$ tell some press stories.  When  
026:252,20['  ]| he heard from Nash that$3$ Stephen was inclined for$4$ writing  
026:252,21['  ]| he said:   
026:252,22[V  ]| ~~ You take my tip:  shorthand.   
026:202,23['  ]| He told many stories illustrating his own smartness at his  
026:252,24['  ]| business and said that$3$ he had once got a ""par"" into a London  
026:252,25['  ]| morning paper and got paid well for$4$ it by$4$ return of post.   
026:252,26[V  ]| ~~ These English chaps, you know, they know how to$9$ do  
026:252,27[V  ]| business.  Pay good money too.   
026:252,28['  ]| The day was very hot and the town seemed dozing in$4$ the  
026:252,29['  ]| heat but when the young men came to$4$ the canal bridge they  
026:252,30['  ]| noticed a crowd collected some fifty yards off on$4$ the canal  
026:252,31['  ]| bank.  A butcher's boy was telling a circle of workmen  
026:252,32['  ]| about it.   
026:252,33[V  ]| ~~ I seen her first.  I noticed something ~~ a long-looking  
026:252,34[V  ]| green thing lying among the weeds and I went for$4$ Joe*Coghlan.   
026:252,35[V  ]| Him and me tried to$9$ get it up$5$ but was too heavy.  So$3$  
026:253,01[V  ]| then what did we do but I thought if we could only get the  
026:253,02[V  ]| lend of a pole off someone.  So$3$ Joe and me, then, went down  
026:253,03[V  ]| to$4$ the back of Slater's yard ~~  
026:253,04['  ]| A pace of two from the brink of the water a thing was  
026:253,05['  ]| lying on$4$ the bank partly covered by$4$ a brown sack.  It was the  
026:253,06['  ]| body of a woman:  the face was to$4$ the ground and from the  
026:253,07['  ]| thick black hair a pool of water had oozed out.  The body  
026:253,08['  ]| was curved upwards with legs abroad but over  
026:253,09['  ]| someone had drawn down the  
026:253,10['  ]| nightdress.  The woman had escaped from the asylum the  
026:253,11['  ]| night before and Stephen heard many criticisms of the  
026:253,12['  ]| nurses.   
026:253,13[V  ]| ~~ It would be better for$4$ them mind the patients than traipsing  
026:253,14[V  ]| about with every Tom, Dick and Harry of a doctor.   
026:253,15[V  ]| ~~ It is them has the style.   
026:253,16['  ]| Mr*Garvey's dog wanted to$9$ sniff the body but Mr*Garvey  
026:253,17['  ]| kicked him heavily and the dog curled up$5$ yelping.  Then  
026:253,18['  ]| there was silence for$4$ some time, everyone remaining at his  
026:253,19['  ]| post watching the corpse, until a voice said 
026:253,19[X  ]| ""Here is the  
026:253,20[X  ]| doctor!""  A stout well-dressed man came down the path  
026:253,21['  ]| quickly without acknowledging the salutes of the people and
