Brontoichthyan

• Brontosaurus, Ichthyosaurus: types of dinosaur → foreshadows the visit to the Wallinstone national museum between FW 008.01 – 010.23, the extinct dinosaurs being humorously contrasted with the more recently deceased Duke of Wellington

• Gr βροντη (brontē): thunder → FW 003.15

• Gr ιχθυς (ichthys): fish → an early Christian acronym for Christ → Fush

• ichthyal: fishlike

• Brontë: a literary family of Irish extraction → the Brontë foliation which litters this paragraph with allusions may have been suggested by the identification of the micturating girls with Lillie Langtry (FW 030.01: Lili O'Rangans), whose real name was Emily Charlotte Le Breton → Ulysses 703.02 ff: "Mrs Langtry the Jersey Lily the prince of Wales was in love with"
  • Third Census of Finnegans Wake
