Joyce, James, 1882-1941

"Ulysses"


--Antithesis, the professor said nodding twice. Vestal virgins. I can see
them. What's keeping our friend?
He turned.
A bevy of scampering newsboys rushed down the steps, scattering in
all directions, yelling, their white papers fluttering. Hard after them
Myles Crawford appeared on the steps, his hat aureoling his scarlet face,
talking with J. J. O'Molloy.
--Come along, the professor cried, waving his arm.
He set off again to walk by Stephen's side.

RETURN OF BLOOM

--Yes, he said. I see them.
Mr Bloom, breathless, caught in a whirl of wild newsboys near the
offices of the IRISH CATHOLIC AND DUBLIN PENNY JOURNAL, called:
--Mr Crawford! A moment!
--TELEGRAPH! Racing special!
--What is it? Myles Crawford said, falling back a pace.
A newsboy cried in Mr Bloom's face:
--Terrible tragedy in Rathmines! A child bit by a bellows!

INTERVIEW WITH THE EDITOR

--Just this ad, Mr Bloom said, pushing through towards the steps,
puffing, and taking the cutting from his pocket. I spoke with Mr Keyes
just now. He'll give a renewal for two months, he says.
