Ulysses
FATHER FARLEY: He is an episcopalian, an
agnostic, an anythingarian seeking to overthrow our holy
faith.
MRS RIORDAN: (Tears up her will) I’m disappointed
in you! You bad man!
MOTHER GROGAN: (Removes her boot to throw it at
Bloom) You beast! You abominable person!
NOSEY FLYNN: Give us a tune, Bloom. One of the
old sweet songs.
BLOOM: (With rollicking humour)
I vowed that I never would leave her,
She turned out a cruel deceiver.
With my tooraloom tooraloom tooraloom
tooraloom.
HOPPY HOLOHAN: Good old Bloom! There’s nobody
like him after all.
PADDY LEONARD: Stage Irishman!
BLOOM: What railway opera is like a tramline in
Gibraltar? The Rows of Casteele.(Laughter.)
LENEHAN: Plagiarist! Down with Bloom!
THE VEILED SIBYL: (Enthusiastically) I’m a Bloomite
and I glory in it. I believe in him in spite of all. I’d give
my life for him, the funniest man on earth.
