Himples
From FinnegansWiki
Jump to navigationJump to searchnipples
Beneath visible areas of the breasts, they are hidden by clothes ("we may take our review of the two mounds to see nothing of the himples")
Preceding references to women's clothing ("in their swisha- wish satins and their taffetaffe tights"), this and the words "two mounds" seems to refer to two breasts and nipples.
This reference to breasts and nipples immediately follows images of a woman feeding someone (tending a fire with a bellows and making eggs).
