SCYLLA & CHARYBDIS
"At Charenton I watched them.
— It seems so, Stephen said, when he wants to do for him, and for all other and singular uneared wombs, the holy office an ostler does for the stallion." (U9.662)
[*Ed. Charenton can mean several places, but I think it refers to Charenton-le-Pont, a commune 6.2 km (3.8 miles) southeast from Paris, on the Seine river. It can be reached from Paris by boat, or simply by walking along the quays.]
