Not him but Kinch the wandering Aengus is incredibly moving.

'Mother's deathbed. Candle. The sheeted mirror. Who brought me into this world lies there, bronzelidded, under few cheap flowers. Liliata rutilantium.

I wept alone.'

Also Bloom thinking of his father and son.

'They have no mercy on that here or infanticide. Refuse christian burial. They used to drive a stake of wood through his heart in the grave. As if it wasn't broken already. Yet sometimes they repent too late. Found in the riverbed clutching rushes. '

And at the end of Circe when Rudy appears before Bloom and is symbolised as the sacrificial lamb after all that madness in the brothel.

Incredibly moving. Just like Beckett is.
