Stately, plump Buck Mulligan came from the
stairhead, bearing a bowl of lather on which a
mirror and a razor lay crossed. A yellow
dressinggown, ungirdled, was sustained gently
behind him on the mild morning air. He held
the bowl aloft and intoned:

— Introibo ad altare Dei.

Halted, he peered down the dark winding stairs
and called out coarsely:

— Come up, Kinch! Come up, you fearful
jesuit!

Solemnly he came forward and mounted the round
gunrest. He faced about and blessed gravely
thrice the tower, the surrounding land and the
awaking mountains. Then, catching sight of
Stephen Dedalus, he bent towards him and made
rapid crosses in the air, gurgling in his
throat and shaking his head. Stephen Dedalus,
displeased and sleepy, leaned his arms on the
top of the staircase and looked coldly at the
shaking gurgling face that blessed him, equine
in its length, and at the light untonsured
hair, grained and hued like pale oak.
Buck Mulligan peeped an instant under the
mirror and then covered the bowl smartly.
— Back to barracks! he said sternly.
