  • knock → Castleknock Hill and another hill in the vicinity are identified with Finn MacCool's (and HCE's) two feet.
    • The Sigla of Finnegans Wake → p. 13n: "In the time of D'Alton, The History of the County of Dublin (Dublin, Hodges & Smith, 1838), p. 641, these were prominent, one crowned with a tower, the other with a castle". The principal hill D’Alton is referring to is Castleknock Hill, on which the ruins of the Norman castle can still be seen. The other hill could be Windmill Hill (now Mount Hybla) on the other side of College Road, but his description of a hill with a rounded tower suggests that he is actually referring to another hill about 200 m east of the castle. On old maps, this is marked _Tower_ and there is still a squat rounded tower on it.
  • knock → hill (Irish cnoc, "hill"; Anglo-Irish knock, "hill")
  • knock out: to knock someone out, to render them unconscious → in Sheridan Le Fanu's 1861 novel The House by the Churchyard, a character is attacked and left for dead in the Hollow in the Phoenix Park
  • knock out: a knock-out in a boxing match
