Other Markings: Text crossed through with orange crayon. (On back
cover a weekly class schedule and a multiplication table are
printed.)
Dating: October 1919-June 1920.
Notes: The text of this MS. is a later draft of the insert which appears
on the versos of pp. 1-4 of MS. V. A. 11. MS. V. A. 13. is of
the same time and stage of development as MSS. V. A. 14., 15., 16.,
17., 18. The six notebooks (MSS. V. A. 13.-18.) are portions of the
same draft (numbered I, n, IV, VI, VII, VIII by Joyce; the missing
portions of this draft, III, V, IX, etc. are not part of this collection
and are either lost or destroyed); this is a later draft than MSS. V.
A. 11. and 12. (probably the next draft). It is a late draft; the published
versions follow this draft closely; correspondence in texts
can be seen paragraph by paragraph.
MS. begins, "Some man that wayfaring was stood by housedoor
at night's oncoming. Of Israel's folk was that man ..."
MS. ends, "... but yet was she left after long years a handmaid.
Nine twelve bloodflows chiding her childless."
