值两便士的

To cut a long story short Bloom, grasping the situation, was the first to rise from his seat so as not to outstay their welcome having first and foremost, being as good as his word that he would foot the bill for the occasion, taken the wise precaution to unobtrusively motion to mine host as a parting shot a scarcely perceptible sign when the others were not looking to the effect that the amount due was forthcoming, making a grand total of fourpence (the amount he deposited unobtrusively in four coppers, literally the last of the Mohicans), he having previously spotted on the printed pricelist for all who ran to read opposite him in unmistakable figures, coffee 2d, confectionery do, and honestly well worth twice the money once in a way, as Wetherup used to remark.

272长话短说。布卢姆看明事态之后，生怕呆得太长，招人讨厌，就头一个站了起来。他信守了自己要为这次聚会掏腰包的诺言，趁没人注意就机警地朝我们这位老板作了个几乎觉察不到的告别手势，示意马上就付钞，总计四便士（并且不引人注目地付了四枚铜币，那诚然是"最后的莫希干人"了）。他事先瞧见了对面墙上的价目表上印得清清楚楚的数字，让人一看就读得出来：咖啡二便士，点心同上。正如韦瑟厄普过去常说的，货真价实，供应的东西有时竟值两倍的价钱哩。

So then the citizen begins talking about the Irish language and the corporation meeting and all to that and the shoneens that can't speak their own language and Joe chipping in because he stuck someone for a quid and Bloom putting in his old goo with his twopenny stump that he cadged off of Joe and talking about the Gaelic league and the antitreating league and drink, the curse of Ireland.

180于是，"市民"就谈起爱尔兰语啦，市政府会议啦，以及所有那些不会讲本国语言、态度傲慢的自封的绅士啦。乔是由于今天从什么人手里捞到了一镑金币，也来插嘴。布卢姆叼着向乔讨来的值两便士的烟头，探过他那黏乎乎的老脑袋瓜儿，大谈起盖尔语协会啦，反对飨宴联盟啦，以及爱尔兰的祸害--酗酒。
