There is one in Finnegans Wake, but it's mixed up with a description of
the planets in their orbits and a game of cricket.

There is the masturbation scene in Ulysses, but I must admit that the
first time I read it, I didn't realise that's what it was: "And then a
rocket sprang and bang shot blind blank and O! then the Roman candle
burst and it was like a sigh of O! and everyone cried O! O! in raptures
and it gushed out of it a stream of rain gold hair threads and they
shed and ah! they were all greeny dewy stars falling with golden, O so
lovely, O, soft, sweet, soft!"
