curchycurchy

I think this is a reference to something other than something Joyce made up, but googling brings up a use of the word from Ulysses in the Circe chapter[1], ie:

MAGINNI: Avant huit! Traversé! Salut! Cours de mains! Croisé!

(The night hours, one by one, steal to the last place. Morning, noon and twilight hours retreat before them. They are masked, with daggered hair and bracelets of dull bells. Weary they curchycurchy under veils.)
