Scope and Contents
This page is divided into four horizontal panels. The top on is brown with white road like paintings that lead into the second panel of green lake-like drawings. In the third panel the white lines change into stars on a blue sky and the botton panel is violet with straight street lines. The text reads, "going, at the time arranged, he drove off to the dim regions of Bloom - he asked the lake, the starlight he asked he asked the street,"why do I hesitate? for go myself. write I shall never because of the diffiiculty of paper." Perhaps this is a reference to the writer James Joyce. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
