feathered in war panoply with his assegai, striding through a
crackling canebrake over beechmast and acorns) Hot! Hot! Ware

Sitting Bull!
BLOOM: It overpowers me. The warm impress of her

Phillaphulla Poulaphouca
Poulaphouca Poulaphouca.
THE YEWS: Ssh! Sister, speak!

Knock and Lourdes. No more desire. (She reclines her head,
sighing) Only the ethereal. Where dreamy creamy gull
waves o’er the waters dull.
(Bloom half rises. His back trouserbutton snaps.)
THE BUTTON: Bip!
(Two sluts of the coombe dance rainily by, shawled, yelling
flatly.)
