9This meanwhile this good sister stood by the door and begged them at

10 the reverence of Jesu our alther liege Lord to leave their wassailing for there
169
11 was above one quick with child, a gentle dame, whose time hied fast. Sir

19 His bounty and have joy of her

⸢2of her

178 drunken said, Expecting each moment to be

179 that stood tofore him for him needed never
22 none asking nor desiring of him
180 to drink and, Now drink, said he, fully
23delectably, and he quaffed as far as
181 he might to their both's health for he
24 was a passing good man of his
182 lustiness. And sir Leopold that was the

187
30Now let us speak of that fellowship that was there to the intent to be
188
31 drunken an they might. There was a sort of scholars along either side the
189
32 board, that is to wit, Dixon yclept junior of saint Mary Merciable's⸢(B)of saint Mary Merciable's(B)⸣
33 with
190 other his fellows Lynch and ⧼madden⧽madden Madden, scholars of medicine,

35 Crotthers, and young
192 Stephen that had mien of a frere that was at head
36 of the board and Costello
193 that men clepen Punch Costello all long of a
1 mastery of him erewhile gested
194 (and of all them, reserved young Stephen,
2 he was the most drunken that
195 demanded still of more mead) and beside the
3 meek sir Leopold. But on
196 young Malachi they waited for that he promised
4 to have come and such as
197 intended to no goodness said how he had broke
5 his avow. And sir Leopold
198 sat with them for he bore fast friendship to sir
6 Simon and to this his son
199 young Stephen and for that his languor
7 becalmed him there after longest
200 wanderings insomuch as they feasted him
8 for that time in the honourablest
201 manner. Ruth red him, love led on with
9 will to wander, loth to leave.


202
10For they were right witty scholars. And he heard their aresouns each
203
11 gen other as touching birth and righteousness, young Madden maintaining
204
12 that put such case it were hard the wife to die (for so it had fallen out a

206
14 now was trespassed out of this world and the self night next before her

15 death all leeches and pothecaries had taken counsel of her case). And they
208
16 said farther she should live because in the beginning, they said, the
17 woman
209 should bring forth in pain and wherefore they that were of this
18 imagination
210 affirmed how young Madden had said truth for he had
19 conscience to let her
211 die. And not few and of these was youngyoung Lynch were
20 in doubt that the

239 too open by reason of a strange humour
19 which he would not bewray and
240 also for that he rued for her that bare

261 that he
10 who stealeth from the poor lendeth to the Lord for he was of a wild
262 manner
11 when he was drunken and that he was now in that taking it
263 appeared
12 eftsoons.


264
13But sir Leopold was passing grave maugre his word by cause he still
265
14 had pity of the terrorcausing shrieking of shrill women in their labour and
266
15 as he was minded of his good lady Marion that had borne him an only
267
16 manchild which on his eleventh day on live had died and no man of art
268
17 could save so dark is destiny. And she was wondrous stricken of heart for
269
18 that evil hap and ⸢(B)[to his burial, sore weeping,]to his burial, sore weeping, for his burial for his burial (B)⸣ [to his burial, sore weeping,]to his burial, sore weeping, for his burial for his burial did him on

20 utterly and lie akeled (for it was
271 ⸢(B)[that time]that time then then (B)⸣ [that time]that time then then about the midst of the
21 winter) and now sir Leopold that had of his
272 body no manchild for an heir
22 looked upon him his friend's son and was
273 shut up in sorrow for his
23 forepassed happiness and as sad as he was that
274 him failed a son of such
24 gentle courage (for all accounted him of real parts)
275 so grieved he also in no
25 less measure for young Stephen for that he lived
276 riotously with those
26 wastrels and murdered his goods with whores. 🕮


277
27About that present time young Stephen filled all cups that stood empty
278
28 so as there remained but little mo if the prudenter had not shadowed their
279
29 approach from him that still plied it very busily who, praying for the
280

21 young Stephen what was the reason why he
336 had not cided to take friar's
22 vows and he answered him obedience in the
337 womb, chastity in the tomb but
23 involuntary poverty all his days. Master
338 Lenehan at this made return that
24 he had heard of those nefarious deeds and
339 how, as he heard hereof counted,
25 he had besmirched the lily virtue of a
340 confiding female which was
26 corruption of minors and they all intershowed
341 it too, waxing merry and
27 toasting to his fathership. But he said very entirely
342 it was clean contrary to
28 their suppose for he was the eternal son and ever
343 virgin. Thereat mirth grew
29 in them the more and they rehearsed to him his
344 curious rite of wedlock for

After this homily
30 which he
697 delivered with much warmth of asseveration Mr Mulligan in a
31 trice put off
698 from his hat a kerchief with which he had shielded it. They

their pace had

35 project meanwhile was
702 very favourably entertained by his auditors and won
36 hearty eulogies from
703 all though Mr Dixon of Mary's excepted to it, asking
1 with a finicking air
704 did he purpose also to carry coals to Newcastle. Mr
2 Mulligan however
705 made court to the scholarly by an apt quotation from the

716 while the company lavished their encomiums
15 upon the project he had
717 advanced. The young gentleman, his friend,
16 overjoyed as he was at a
718 passage that had late⸢BlateB⸣ befallen him, could not
17 forbear to tell it his nearest
719 neighbour. Mr Mulligan, now perceiving the
18 table, asked for whom were
720 ⧼the⧽the those loaves and fishes and, seeing the
19stranger, he made him a civil bow
721 and said, Pray, sir, was you in need of
20 any professional assistance we could
722 give? Who, upon his offer, thanked
21 him very heartily, though preserving his
723 proper distance, and replied that he
22 was come there about a lady, now an
724 inmate of Horne's house, that was in
23 an interesting condition, poor body,
725from woman's woe (and here he
24 fetched a deep sigh) to know if her
726 happiness had yet taken place. Mr
25 Dixon, to turn the table, took on to ask
727of Mr Mulligan himself whether
26 his incipient ventripotence, upon which he
728 rallied him, betokened an

742 him a flagon of cordial waters at the same time by a

744 to which was united an equivalent but contrary

20 and, opening his

755 which he had cherished ever since her hand had wrote
22 therein. Gazing
756 upon those features with a world of tenderness, Ah,

765 these words and,
32 having replaced the locket in his bosom, he wiped his eye
766 and sighed again.

767 how great and
34 universal must be that sweetest of Thy tyrannies which can

16 fruits of that age upon which it is commonly charged that it knows not pity.

18 children: the words of their tumultuary discussions were difficultly

19 understood and not often nice: their testiness and outrageous mots were
851
20 such that his intellects resiled from: nor were they scrupulously sensible of
852
21 the proprieties though their fund of strong animal spirits spoke in their

19The debate which ensued was in its scope and progress an epitome of
1199
20 the course of life. Neither place nor council was lacking in dignity. The
1200
21 debaters were the keenest in the land, the theme they were engaged on the
1201
22 loftiest and most vital. The high hall of Horne's house had never beheld an
1202
23 assembly so representative and so varied nor had the old rafters of that
1203
24 establishment ever listened to a language so encyclopaedic. A gallant scene
1204
25 in truth it made. Crotthers was there at the foot of the table in his striking
1205
26 Highland garb, his face glowing from the briny airs of the Mull of
1206
27 Galloway. There too, opposite to him, was Lynch whose countenance
28 bore
1207 already the stigmata of early depravity and premature wisdom.
29 Beside⧽Beside Next Next Beside⧽Beside Next Next the
1208 Scotchman was the place assigned to Costello, the
30eccentric, while at his
1209 side was seated in stolid repose the squat form of
31 Madden. The chair of the
1210resident indeed stood vacant before the hearth

contrasted sharply with the ⧼prime⧽prime
34 primrose elegance and townbred
1213 manners of Malachi Roland St John
35 Mulligan. Lastly at the head of the
1214 board was the young poet who found a
36 refuge from his labours of
1215 pedagogy and metaphysical inquisition in the
1 convivial atmosphere of
1216 Socratic discussion, while to right and left of him
2 were accommodated the
1217 flippant prognosticator, fresh from the
3 hippodrome, and that vigilant
1218 wanderer, soiled by the dust of travel and
4 combat and stained by the mire of
1219 an indelible dishonour, but from
5whose steadfast and constant heart no lure
1220 or peril or threat or
6 degradation could ever efface the image of that
1221 voluptuous loveliness which
7 the inspired pencil of Lafayette has limned for
1222 ages yet to come.


1223
8It had better be stated here and now at the outset that the perverted
1224
9 transcendentalism to which Mr S. Dedalus' (Div. Scep.) contentions would
1225
10 appear to prove him pretty badly addicted runs directly counter to accepted
1226
11 scientific methods. Science, it cannot be too often repeated, deals with
1227
12 tangible phenomena. The man of science like the man in the street⸢Dlike the man in the streetD⸣ has to
1228
13 face hardheaded facts that cannot be blinked and explain them as best he
1229
14 can. There may be, it is true, some questions which science cannot answer –
1230
15 at present – such as the first problem submitted by Mr ⸢(B)[Bloom, Pubbl.

33 question
1274 why a child of normally healthy parents and seemingly a healthy
34child and
1275 properly looked after succumbs unaccountably in early
35 childhood (though
1276 other children of the same marriage do not) must
