Summary
Once again we find ourselves on a walk with Mr. Leopold Bloom, this time a little longer and giving us a longer "drink" of the local Dublin scene.
Mr. Bloom starts by getting his letter from Martha from the post office, where he runs into Mr. C. P. McCoy.
McCoy chats idly with Bloom, exchanges in an update with Bloom about their wives, and asks him to put his name down at Dignam's funeral.
During their conversation, Bloom's interior monologue continues to run at normal speed, and crops up continually throughout the narrative. While talking to McCoy, he's fingering his letter from Martha, and trying to catch a glimpse up the skirt of a woman getting into a carriage.
As he continues to wander around Dublin, his mind also wanders from subject to subject - smallpox, the Bible, his father's suicide, and on to reading Martha's letter in the "lee of the station wall".
