	Mr Bloom turned over idly pages of The Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk, then of Aristotle’s Masterpiece. Crooked botched print. Plates: infants cuddled in a ball in bloodred wombs like livers of slaughtered cows. Lots of them like that at this moment all over the world. All butting with their skulls to get out of it. Child born every minute somewhere. Mrs Purefoy.		Mr Bloom turned over idly pages of ''The Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk'', then of Aristotle’s ''Masterpiece''. Crooked botched print.

	So far, every time we've seen Boylan anywhere, it's been sunny, he's been in the sunlight, or in a light, colorful fruitsmelling shop, and here again we see him wearing skyblue clothing. Now we see him putting to use the colorful flowers he picked up earlier in the chapter.		So far, every time we've seen Boylan anywhere, it's been sunny, he's been in the sunlight, or in a light, colorful fruitsmelling shop, and here again we see him wearing skyblue clothing. Now we see him putting to use the colorful flowers he picked up earlier in the chapter.

			Contrast that with the way Bloom is portrayed as always being dark or in the shadows - he is in the shade when he sees Boylan, and earlier in the chapter he was described as "a darkbacked figure" scanning books.

			Blazes Boylan presented to the leaders’ skyblue frontlets and high action a skyblue tie, a widebrimmed straw hat at a rakish angle and a suit of indigo serge. His hands in his jacket pockets forgot to salute but he offered to the three ladies the bold admiration of his eyes and the red flower between his lips.

			Gerty MacDowell, carrying the Catesby’s cork lino letters for her father who was laid up, knew by the style it was the lord and lady lieutenant but she couldn’t see what Her Excellency had on because the tram and Spring’s big yellow furniture van had to stop in front of her on account of its being the lord lieutenant.

	~~Elijah~~ is a callback to the "~~thirtytwo feet per second per second~~" ~~thought Bloom has~~ while ~~throwing~~ a crumpled paper ball into the river ~~while watching~~ the gulls~~, back in [[Ulysses/Lestrygonians]] Chapter 8~~:		The first bit here is a callback to the opening of [[Ulysses/Lestrygonians]] Chapter 8, when he sees "Elijah is coming" on a poster while walking, and then the name Elijah bubbles up again when he throws a crumpled paper ball into the river and watches the gulls go after it like it's food:

	This is a cryptic scene. ''Coactus volui'' is Latin for "Having been forced, I was willing." The full meaning of this is probably "Although I was forced, this does not alter the fact that I was willing." It isn't clear why he is looking at the distant pleasance of the duke's lawn when he says this.		This is a cryptic scene. ''Coactus volui'' is Latin for "Having been forced, I was willing."
