a night that is associated with witches. We also know that, she has witch-like features: “…she had a very long nose and a very long chin” (309). Joyce even exaggerates this trait: “…when she laughed her grey-green eyes sparkled with disappointed shyness and the tip of her nose nearly met the tip of her chin” (311).
