- false voice of haycup → false voice of ja → false voice of jiccup → strawng voice of false jiccup
- straw: ironic reply when someone protests, "Hey!" → contrasted with hay → hayair
- Genesis 27.22: "The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau." → FW 003.10-11
- hiccup → a sign of Jacob's guilt, like HCE's stutter?
- T.S. Eliot, The Hollow Men, lines 1-11: "We are the hollow men/ We are the stuffed men/ Leaning together/ Headpiece filled with straw. Alas!/ Our dried voices, when/ We whisper together/ Are quiet and meaningless/ As wind in dry grass/ Or rats' feet over broken glass/ In our dry cellar"
- jiccup → Jacob + hiccup
- "The "ng" in "Strawng" may also be considered as an abbreviation for Noble Gas. Compair with "hayair".
