Stephen thinks of drowning, and his mother's death. Tide and change.
In this bonus episode a few days before Christmas, Frank discusses the final tale of The Dubliners: The Dead.
Stephen, dwelling on insults, thinks of the Decameron - and of his own failures of courage and athleticism.
Still on the same paragraph, Frank considers Walter Harris's The History and Antiquities of the City of Dublin as a source for Joyce. Moving on, the dog barks, and Stephen imagines himself a stag at bay. Famous pretenders.
A running dog on the beach. Stephen thinks of Lochland raiders, and ancient Dubliners attacking beached turlehide whales.
