At
this
cry
the
whole
ship
's
crew
hurried
towards
the
harpooner
--
commander
,
officers
,
masters
,
sailors
,
cabin
boys
;
even
the
engineers
left
their
engines
,
and
the
stokers
their
furnaces
.
162
The
order
to
stop
her
had
been
given
,
and
the
frigate
now
simply
went
on
by
her
own
momentum
.
The
darkness
was
then
profound
,
and
,
however
good
the
Canadian
's
eyes
were
,
I
asked
myself
how
he
had
managed
to
see
,
and
what
he
had
been
able
to
see
.
My
heart
beat
as
if
it
would
break
.
But
Ned
Land
was
not
mistaken
,
and
we
all
perceived
the
object
he
pointed
to
.
At
two
cables
'
length
from
the
Abraham
Lincoln
,
on
the
starboard
quarter
,
the
sea
seemed
to
be
illuminated
all
over
.
It
was
not
a
mere
phosphoric
phenomenon
.
The
monster
emerged
some
fathoms
from
the
water
,
and
then
threw
out
that
very
intense
but
mysterious
light
mentioned
in
the
report
of
several
captains
.
This
magnificent
irradiation
must
have
been
produced
by
an
agent
of
great
shining
power
.
The
luminous
part
traced
on
the
sea
an
immense
oval
,
much
elongated
,
the
center
of
which
condensed
a
burning
heat
,
whose
overpowering
brilliancy
died
out
by
successive
gradations
.
163
"
It
is
only
a
massing
of
phosphoric
particles
,
"
cried
one
of
the
officers
.

"
No
,
sir
,
certainly
not
,
"
I
replied
.
"
That
brightness
is
of
an
essentially
electrical
nature
.
Besides
,
see
,
see
!
it
moves
;
it
is
moving
forwards
,
backwards
;
it
is
darting
towards
us
!
"
A
general
cry
arose
from
the
frigate
.
165
"
Silence
!
"
said
the
captain
.
"
Up
with
the
helm
,
reverse
the
engines
.
"
166
The
steam
was
shut
off
,
and
the
Abraham
Lincoln
,
beating
to
port
,
described
a
semicircle
.
167
"
Right
the
helm
,
go
ahead
,
"
cried
the
captain
.

These
orders
were
executed
,
and
the
frigate
moved
rapidly
from
the
burning
light
.
169
I
was
mistaken
.
She
tried
to
sheer
off
,
but
the
supernatural
animal
approached
with
a
velocity
double
her
own
.
170
We
gasped
for
breath
.
Stupefaction
more
than
fear
made
us
dumb
and
motionless
.
The
animal
gained
on
us
,
sporting
with
the
waves
.
It
made
the
round
of
the
frigate
,
which
was
then
making
fourteen
knots
,
and
enveloped
it
with
its
electric
rings
like
luminous
dust
.
