Ulysses

and his mad crazy letters my Precious one everything
connected with your glorious Body everything underlined
that comes from it is a thing of beauty and of joy for ever
something he got out of some nonsensical book that he

had me always at myself 4 and 5 times a day sometimes
and I said I hadnt are you sure O yes I said I am quite sure
in a way that shut him up I knew what was coming next
only natural weakness it was he excited me I dont know
how the first night ever we met when I was living in
Rehoboth terrace we stood staring at one another for
about lo minutes as if we met somewhere I suppose on
account of my being jewess looking after my mother he
used to amuse me the things he said with the half
sloothering smile on him and all the Doyles said he was
going to stand for a member of Parliament O wasnt I the
born fool to believe all his blather about home rule and
the land league sending me that long strool of a song out
of the Huguenots to sing in French to be more classy O
beau pays de la Touraine that I never even sang once
explaining and rigmaroling about religion and persecution
he wont let you enjoy anything naturally then might he as
a great favour the very 1st opportunity he got a chance in
Brighton square running into my bedroom pretending the
ink got on his hands to wash it off with the Albion milk
