If this sounds uncannily like the episode itself, well, so it should, for it is about the memories of old men. He thought again of Finn's Hotel and wrote to Harriet Weaver asking her if she had any of the pieces, and how many of them were there, and what were they, and if she them could she send them to him posthaste. The II.4 that we know now originated in the Summer of 1938, as Joyce was finishing off his book and, I would imagine, contemplating his own inevitable demise. What he did next, or perhaps it was next but one or two, was to take the middle part of ‘The Staves of Memory’ (it had originally ended in yet another beautiful verse, one that remained unpublished until 2012) and rewrote it as ‘MaMaLuJo’, the sidepiece that he sent to Ford Madox Ford to publish in his review, where it languished for some fourteen years. He then forgot about it for the best part of fifteen years. Soon after, Joyce moved the song to the end of ‘Tristan and Isolde’, had it typed up, and sent it to Harriet Weaver. This piece begins with the lovely ‘Seaswan's Song’. Having composed that, he drafted a new piece, ‘The Staves of Memory’, a sort of continuation of ‘Tristan and Isolde’ in which the four waves of Ireland, depicted as four old men losing their memories, are startled into a fresh round of reminiscences by the sound of the lovers' kiss. In the late Summer of 1923, while he was holidaying in Bognor, Joyce wrote a semi-comical piece about Tristan and Isolde and their carry-on on the way back from Ireland to deliver his young bride to old King Mark in Cornwall. And not only was Finn's Hotel in its past, it was also, as we shall see, in its future. Well, what was it a part of, then? The answer is, Finn's Hotel. At the time (1924) it was not really a part of his new book. Oh, he had thought of it all right and even written it but he considered it a ‘sidepiece’ (see Letters I, n.d. What is even more surprising is that an early version of ‘MaMaLuJo’ had already appeared in print, in the Transatlantic Review for April 1924, so that Joyce's 1926 plan did not mean that he had not yet even thought of, let alone written, the piece. In Joyce's original plan, Book II was to end with ‘lights out in the village’ (see Letters I, 7 June 1926), the section that now appears at the end of II.3.
