Assigned reading (4½ verses [] plus 51 notes) [secondary] [McH]

"He'll Cheat E'erawan" (classic antisemitic trope)

"Where from? roars Poolbeg. Cookingha'pence, he bawls Donnez-moi scampitle, wick an wipin' fampiny" (I see a poor foreigner arriving (like young Joyce) with his family, by ship at the Poolbeg lighthouse, interrogated in English but replying in other languages. Be sure that Joyce had a deeper purpose than easy comedy in squeezing in all those syllables)

"He'll Cheat E'ERawan our LOcal lads nickNAMED him"
"And 'tis short till Sheriff CLANcy'll be winding up his unLIMited COMpany"
"The hooKER of that..." only fits the meter if you say hooKER
"EBlana"
"Saw his BLACK and tan MAN-o'-war,"
"On THE harbour bar"
"Thok's MIN gammelhole Norveegickes MONiker"
