A collection of Love Poems "Welladay! Welladay!/For the winds of May!/Love is unhappy when love is away!" - James Joyce, Chamber Music The title of the book, "Chamber Music", was reportedly a pun relating to the sound of urine tinkling in a chamber pot, though this seems to be a later embellishment by Joyce of the title's meaning.
