Now gode. Let us leave theories there and return to here's here.     10
 Now hear. 'Tis gode again. The teak coffin, Pughglasspanelfitted,      11
feets to the east, was to turn in later, and pitly patly near the      12
porpus, materially effecting the cause. And this, liever, is the     13
thinghowe. Any number of conservative public bodies, through      14
a number of select and other committees having power to add to    15
their number, before voting themselves and himself, town, port     16
and garrison, by a fit and proper resolution, following a koorts     17
order of the groundwet, once for all out of plotty existence, as    18
a forescut, so you maateskippey might to you cuttinrunner on a     19
neuw pack of klerds, made him, while his body still persisted,     20
their present of a protem grave in Moyelta of the best Lough      21
Neagh pattern, then as much in demand among misonesans as     22
the Isle of Man today among limniphobes. Wacht even! It was     23
in a fairly fishy kettlekerry, after the Fianna's foreman had taken      24
his handful, enriched with ancient woods and dear dutchy deep-     25
linns mid which were an old knoll and a troutbeck, vainyvain of      26
her osiery and a chatty sally with any Wilt or Walt who would      27
ongle her as Izaak did to the tickle of his rod and watch her     28
waters of her sillying waters of and there now brown peater      29
arripple (may their quilt gild lightly over his somnolulutent     30
form!) Whoforyou lies his last, by the wrath of Bog, like the     31
erst curst Hun in the bed of his treubleu Donawhu. 32

For hear Allhighest sprack for krischnians as for propagana     20
fidies and his nuptial eagles sharped their beaks of prey: and       21
every morphyl man of us, pome by pome, falls back into this      22
terrine: as it was let it be, says he! And it is as though where      23
Agni araflammed and Mithra monished and Shiva slew as maya-     24
mutras the obluvial waters of our noarchic memory withdrew,     25
windingly goharksome, to some hastyswasty timberman torch-      26
priest, flamenfan, the ward of the wind that lightened the fire that       27
lay in the wood that Jove bolt, at his rude word. Posidonius      28
O'Fluctuary! Lave that bloody stone as it is! What are you      29
doing your dirty minx and his big treeblock way up your path?      30
Slip around, you, by the rare of the ministers'! And, you, take      31
that barrel back where you got it, Mac Shane's, and go the way      32
your old one went, Hatchettsbury Road! And gish! how they      33
gushed away, the pennyfares, a whole school for scamper, with      34
their sashes flying sish behind them, all the little pirlypettes!      35
Issy-la-Chapelle! Any lucans, please?      36
e pág. 81
Yes, the viability of vicinals if invisible is invincible. And we      1
are not trespassing on his corns either. Look at all the plotsch!       2
Fluminian! If this was Hannibal's walk it was Hercules' work.      3
And a hungried thousand of the unemancipated slaved the way.      4
The mausoleum lies behind us (O Adgigasta, multipopulipater!)      5
and there are milestones in their cheadmilias faultering along     6
the tramestrack by Brahm and Anton Hermes! Per omnibus     7
secular seekalarum. Amain. But the past has made us this present      8
of a rhedarhoad. So more boher O'Connell! Though rainy-      9
hidden, you're rhinohide. And if he's not a Romeo you may      10
scallop your hat. Wereupunder in the fane of Saint Fiacre! Halte!     11”

Finnegans Wake: James Joyce

“B

O tempo que os áugures interrogavam para saber o que ele trazia no seu ventre não era certamente visto como tempo homogéneo e vazio. Quem tiver isto presente talvez possa fazer uma ideia de como o tempo passado foi experienciado na rememoração [Eingedenken] – exatamente dessa maneira. Como se sabe, os Judeus estavam proibidos de investigar o futuro. Pelo contrário, a Tora e as orações ensinam a prática dessa rememoração. Isso retirava ao futuro o seu carácter mágico, que era aquilo que procuravam os que recorriam aos áugures. Mas isso não significa que, para os Judeus, o tempo fosse homogéneo e vazio, pois nele cada segundo era a porta estreita por onde podia entrar o MESSIAS.”
