The French Translation

"A copy of Portrait by her unmade bed.../ Embracing in their common hatred/ what am I, against the gut alliance/ of Catholic Ireland and Catholic France?/ But Dedalus, I know you through and through!/ We even share a name. Reading you/ I sprouted wings and fled."

Carmen

"... and tossed him a smile/ that landed round his neck like a lasso./ She pulled it tight with a word like Go,/ and a sulk that yanked him back to her/ as down she went all tenderness and laughter."

"There is comfort in tables, and equilibrium/ in a corner seat... Our cafe is the same. She's as good as here./ There's life in a table and empty chair."
