"O, how do you do, Mrs Breen?

- No use complaining. How is Molly those times? Haven’t seen her for ages.

- In the pink, Mr Bloom said gaily, Milly has a position down in Mullingar, you know.

- Go away! Isn’t that grand for her?

- Yes, in a photographer’s there. Getting on like a house on fire. How are all your charges?

- All on the baker’s list, Mrs Breen said. How many has she? No other in sight.

- Youre in black I see. You have no…

- No, Mr Bloom said. I have just come from a funeral. Going to crop up all day, I forsee. Who’s dead, when and what did he doe of? Turn up like a bad penny."

Ulysses, Lestrygonians P.145
