Read as far as "streamy morvenlight calls up the sunbeam;" (131.29)
Some favorites of the day:
to fall fou of hockinbechers wherein he had gauged the use of raisin; (130.15)
long gunn but not for cotton; (130.26)
has a peep in his pocketbook and a packetboat in his keep; (131.2)
married with cakes and repunked with pleasure; (131.14)
Summary(?)
These pages still have to do with the first question Shaun is supposed to answer. It has still to do with finding out, "What secondonone mother rector and maxi most bridges-maker was the first to...", though it must be mentioned that the phrases after the semi-colons do not often seem to be the continuation of this initial part of the question. Whoever it is, had - for instance -, as an yangster (youngster?) gauged the use of raisin (reason?) as he tried hockinbecher (wine in a glass?), learnt to speak earish (in Irish?) with his eyes shut, overcome the famine and grown girther (fatter?), taught himself skating and learned to fall, married with cakes and repunked with pleasure (married in haste and repented in leisure?) ...
We get a list of the names of (a) bridges in Dublin, perhaps as this person whom we are concerned with is/was a bridge-maker, (b) seven groups of initials apparently standing for seven lord mayors of Dublin. Religion is not neglected either as hints are made to the founders of major religions, such as Buddha (?) (Buddapest), Mohammad (?) (we are pledged entirely to his green mantle)...
