if x = 1 and y = 36, (x+x+x) times (x+y) = 111 ['36'????]
FDV: "Subdivide and sumdolot → Somedivide and sumthelot
and the tale comes out the same. → but the tally turns round the same balifuson.
Axe plays axe on axe axewise. → Axe on thwacks on thracks, axenwise.

035.24 "K. O. Sempatrick's Day and the fenian rising"
Saint Patrick's Day, 17 March (17) + Fenian Rising, 1867 (67) = 1767 (Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu: The House by the Churchyard, ch. 1: (begins) 'A.D. 1767')

14 = 1+6+7 = 2+3+4+5"

159.33 "he'll make Number 106"
using A-Z = 1-26, James Joyce = 106

201.30 "Olaph lamm et, all that pack?"

213.27 "Six shifts, ten kerchiefs, nine to hold to the fire and this for the code, the convent napkins, twelve, one baby's shawl."
6 + 10 + 9 + 1 + 12 + 1 = 39 articles of clothing (thirty-nine Articles of Church of England) [534.12]
6 + 10 (9 + 1) + 12 + 1 = 29
6 + 10 = 16 = P; 12 = L; 1 = A (using A-Z = 1-26)

265.25 "only two millium two humbered and eighty thausig nine humbered and sixty radiolumin lines"

assuming four = *X* = Roman X = ten, then ten + five = fifteen (one-five)
pippive (one-five, 15) + poopive (two-five, 25) + Niall Dhu (nil-two, -2) + Foughty Unn (41) + Enoch Thortig (31) + endso one (1) = 111

twelve factorial = 479,001,600
(5 - 1 = 4)
(2 + 5 x 1 = 7)
(5 x 2 - 1 = 9)
(1000 + ½ x 1000 + 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 = 1600)

286.03 "P.t.l.o.a.t.o."
using A-Z = 1-26, Ptloato = 99 [this is silly!]

15 + 14 = 9 + 20 = 8 + 21 = 28 + 1 = 29 [??]

617.23 "Femelles will be preadaminant as from twentyeight to twelve."
twenty-eight to twelve = 11:32 [maybe]

618.13 "about 4.32 or at 8 and 22.5"
Saint Patrick landed in Ireland in A.D. 432
eight and twenty to five = 4:32 [but 22.5 would be 4:40]
