The online shorter Finnegans Wake (IV, ch17)

Jorn Barger September 2000

NEW: At the end of each chapter there's a link to a chatboard for that chapter.


Chapter seventeen

When Joyce sat down in late 1937 to write this last chapter, he knew it had to tie together three vignettes he'd written 14 years earlier: St Kevin, Berkeley and Patrick, and the Revered Letter. And he knew it had to end in the middle of the first sentence, written eleven years before. The added, transitional passages were revised very little before publication in mid-1939-- the FDV (first draft version) is often very close to the final.

FDV: Muta: Quodestnunc fumusiste vohlvuns ex Domoyno?

McH: What now is that smoke rolling out of the Lord?

Feb 1935: JAJ to Giorgio [in Italian]: "St Patrick went [to Tara] to confront the druid priests, just like Moses in Egypt. He did every kind of miracle, too. Every fire in Ireland was supposed to be extinguished except the royal fire at Slane, I think. Patrick roused the druids' ire by lighting the Paschal fire. It was Holy Saturday..." (L3-346)

Berkeley and Patrick vignette [drafts]

2 Aug 1923: JAJ to HSW "a piece describing the conversion of S. Patrick by Ireland"

20 Aug 1939: JAJ to Budgen "...Much more is intended in the colloquy between Berkeley the arch druid and his pidgin speech, and Patrick the arch priest and his Nippon English. It is also the defence and indictment of the book itself, B's theory of colours, and Patrick's practical solution to the problem. Hence the phrase in the preceding Mutt and Jeff banter 'Dies is Dorminus master' = Deus est Dominus noster plus the day is Lord over sleep, i.e. when it days." (SL397)

Unless they changes by mistake... No peace at all. Maybe it's those two old crony aunts held them out to the water front. Queer Mrs Quickenough and odd Miss Doddpebble. And when them two has had a good few there isn't much more dirty clothes to publish... We'll not disturb their sleeping duties. Let besoms be bosuns. It's Phoenix, dear. And the flame is, hear! ...Come! Step out of your shell! Hold up you free fing! Yes. We've light enough. I won't take our laddy's lampern. For them four old windbags of Gustsofairy to be blowing at...

It is the softest morning that ever I can ever remember me... The trout will be so fine at brookfisht... Are me not truly? Lst! Only but, theres a but, you must buy me a fine new girdle too, nolly... They're all saying I need it since the one from Isaacsen's slooped its line... Come! Give me your great bearspaw, padder avilky, fol a miny tiny... Reach down. A lil mo. So. Draw back your glave. Hot and hairy, hugon, is your hand! Here's where the falskin begins. Smoos as an infams... I'll close me eyes. So not to see. Or see only a youth in his florizel, a boy in innocence, peeling a twig, a child beside a weenywhite steed. The child we all love to place our hope in for ever. All men has done something. Be the time they've come to the weight of old fletch. We'll lave it. So. We will take our walk before in the timpul they ring the earthly bells... For us. Next peaters poll you will be elicted or I'm not your elicitous bribe. The Kinsella woman's man will never reduce me... Not such big strides, huddy foddy! ...It is hardly a Knut's mile or seven, possumbotts.

FDV: It is the softest morning that I can ever remember me. The trout will be so nice at brookfest. Am I not truly? Only you must buy me a new girdle too. Come. Give me your great big hand for miny tiny. We will take our walk before they ring the bells. Not such big steps. It is hardly seven mile.

WJ Lawrence on JAJ in 1904: "an odd creature with his strange eyes and long hair, walking along the street with huge strides, seven-league-boot style, with his arms waving constantly" (via Holloway's diary)

It is very good for the health of a morning... A gentle motion all around. As leisure paces... It seems so long since, ages since. As if you had been long far away... You will tell me some time if I can believe its all. You know where I am bringing you? You remember? ...I could lead you there and I still by you in bed... Not a soul but ourselves. Time? We have loads on our hangs. Till Gilligan and Halligan call again to hooligan... We might call on the Old Lord, what do you say? There's something tells me. He is a fine sport... His door always open. For a newera's day. Much as your own is... Remember to take off your white hat, ech? When we come in the presence...

His is house of laws. And I'll drop my graciast kertssey too... Saying: What'll you take to link to light a pike on porpoise, plaise? He might knight you an Armor... And I'll be your aural eyeness. But we vain. Plain fancies. It's in the castles air... We can take or leave... You'll know our way from there surely... We can sit us down on the heathery benn, me on you, in quolm unconsciounce... Ourselves, oursouls alone... And watch would the letter you're wanting be coming may be. And cast ashore. That I prays for be mains of me draims. Scratching it and patching at with a prompt from a primer. And what scrips of nutsnolleges I pecked up me meself Every letter is a hard but yours sure is the hardest crux ever... But once done, dealt and delivered, tattat, you're on the map... When the waves give up yours the soil may for me. Sometime then, somewhere there, I wrote me hopes and buried the page when I heard Thy voice, ruddery dunner, so loud that none but, and left it to lie till a kissmiss coming. So content me now. Lss. Unbuild and be buildn our bankaloan cottage there and we'll cohabit respectable...

I am so exquisitely pleased about the loveleavest dress I have. You will always call me Leafiest, won't you, dowling? ...Grand owld marauder! If I knew who you are! ...Howsomendeavour, you done me fine! The only man was ever known could eat the crushts of lobsters... You certainly make the most royal of noises. I will tell you all sorts of makeup things, strangerous. And show you to every simple storyplace we pass... Change the plates for the next course of murphies! ...But it's by this route he'll come some morrow...

FDV: I am so exquisitely pleased about the lovely dress I have. You will always call me Leafy, won't you? Queer grand old Finn, if I knew who you are! I will tell you all sorts of stories, strange one. About every place we pass by.

It is all so often and still the same to me. Snf? Only turf, wick dear! Clane turf... Why, them's the muchrooms, come up during the night. Look, agres of roofs in parshes... Steadyon, Cooloosus! Mind your stride or you'll knock. While I'm dodging the dustbins. Look what I found! A lintil pea. And look at here! This cara weeseed. Pretty mites, my sweetthings, was they poorloves abandoned by wholawidey world? ...If I lose my breath for a minute or two don't speak, remember! Once it happened, so it may again. Why I'm all these years within years in soffran, allbeleaved. To hide away the tear, the parted. It's thinking of all. The brave that gave their. The fair that wore. All them that's gunne. I'll begin again in a jiffey. The nik of a nad. How glad you'll be I waked you! My! How well you'll feel! For ever after. First we turn by the vagurin here and then it's gooder. So side by side, turn agate, weddingtown, laud men of Londub! I only hope whole the heavens sees us.

FDV: It is all so often and still the same to me. Look! Your blackbirds! That's for your good luck. How glad you'll be I waked you. My! How well you'll feel. For ever after. First we turn a little here and then it's easy. I only hope the heavens sees us.

For I feel I could near to faint away. Into the deeps... Let me lean, just a lea, if you le, bowldstrong bigtider... Here, weir, reach, island, bridge. Where you meet I. The day. Remember! Why there that moment and us two only? I was but teen, a tiler's dot... And the fiercest freaky ever followed a pining child round the sluppery table with a forkful of fat... I'm sure he squirted juice in his eyes to make them flash for flightening me. Still and all he was awful fond to me... There'll be others but non so for me. Yed he never knew we seen us before. Night after night. So that I longed to go to. And still with all. One time you'd stand fornenst me, fairly laughing, in your bark and tan billows of I branches for to fan me coolly. And I'd lie as quiet as a moss. And one time you'd rush upon me, darkly roaring, like a great black shadow with a sheeny stare to perce me rawly. And I'd frozen up and pray for thawe. Three times in all. I was the pet of everyone then. A princeable girl. And you were the pantymammy's Vulking Corsergoth... And, by Thorror, you looked it! My lips went livid for from the joy of fear. Like almost now. How? How you said how you'd give me the keys of me heart. And we'd be married till delth to uspart... O mine! Only, no, now it's me who's got to give. As duv herself div. Inn this linn. And can it be it's nnow fforvell? Illas! I wisht I had better glances to peer to you through this baylight's growing. But you're changing, acoolsha, you're changing from me, I can feel. Or is it me is? I'm getting mixed. Brightening up and tightening down.

[fw]

Yes, you're changing, sonhusband, and you're turning, I can feel you, for a daughterwife from the hills again... And she is coming. Swimming in my hindmoist... Just a whisk brisk sly spry spink spank sprint of a thing theresomere, saultering. Saltarella come to her own. I pity your oldself I was used to. Now a younger's there. Try not to part! Be happy, dear ones! May I be wrong! For she'll be sweet for you as I was sweet when I came down out of me mother. My great blue bedroom, the air so quiet, scarce a cloud. In peace and silence. I could have stayed up there for always only. It's something fails us. First we feel. Then we fall. And let her rain now if she likes. Gently or strongly as she likes. Anyway let her rain for my time is come. I done me best when I was let. Thinking always if I go all goes. A hundred cares, a tithe of troubles and is there one who understands me? One in a thousand of years of the nights? All me life I have been lived among them but now they are becoming lothed to me. And I am lothing their little warm tricks. And lothing their mean cosy turns. And all the greedy gushes out through their small souls. And all the lazy leaks down over their brash bodies. How small it's all! And me letting on to meself always. And lilting on all the time. I thought you were all glittering with the noblest of carriage. You're only a bumpkin. I thought you the great in all things, in guilt and in glory. You're but a puny. Home! My people were not their sort out beyond there so far as I can. For all the bold and bad and bleary they are blamed, the seahags. No! Nor for all our wild dances in all their wild din. I can seen meself among them, allaniuvia pulchrabelled. How she was handsome, the wild Amazia, when she would seize to my other breast! And what is she weird, haughty Niluna, that she will snatch from my ownest hair! For 'tis they are the stormies. Ho hang! Hang ho! And the clash of our cries till we spring to be free. Auravoles, they says, never heed of your name! But I'm loothing them that's here and all I lothe. Loonely in me loneness. For all their faults. I am passing out. O bitter ending! I'll slip away before they're up. They'll never see. Nor know. Nor miss me.

[fw]

And it's old and old it's sad and old it's sad and weary I go back to you, my cold father, my cold mad father, my cold mad feary father, till the near sight of the mere size of him, the moyles and moyles of it, moananoaning, makes me seasilt saltsick and I rush, my only, into your arms. I see them rising! Save me from those therrble prongs! Two more. Onetwo moremens more. So. Avelaval. My leaves have drifted from me. All. But one clings still. I'll bear it on me. To remind me of. Lff! So soft this morning, ours. Yes. Carry me along, taddy, like you done through the toy fair! If I seen him bearing down on me now under whitespread wings like he'd come from Arkangels, I sink I'd die down over his feet, humbly dumbly, only to washup. Yes, tid. There's where. First.
