A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
Authorship not stated
You play young Stephen Dedalus at Clongowes Wood College, cold and short-sighted on the muddy field before Wells shoves you into the square cesspool over a broken pair of glasses. Fever in the infirmary blurs the ward with memories of home — Dante's warnings about colors and loyalty, your father's song — while Fleming and Athy back your account and Wells tries to talk his way past the rector. Brother Michael has already sent for your family when the chapter ends.
