"
No
doubt
,
"
said
Ned
Land
;
"
but
it
remains
to
be
seen
whether
he
will
bring
the
ship
into
the
Pacific
or
the
Atlantic
Ocean
,
that
is
,
into
frequented
or
deserted
seas
.
"
I
could
not
answer
that
question
,
and
I
feared
that
Captain
Nemo
would
rather
take
us
to
the
vast
ocean
that
touches
the
coasts
of
Asia
and
America
at
the
same
time
.
He
would
thus
complete
the
tour
round
the
submarine
world
,
and
return
to
those
waters
in
which
the
Nautilus
could
sail
freely
.
We
ought
,
before
long
,
to
settle
this
important
point
.
The
Nautilus
went
at
a
rapid
pace
.
The
polar
circle
was
soon
passed
,
and
the
course
shaped
for
Cape
Horn
.
We
were
off
the
American
point
,
March
31st
,
at
seven
o’clock
in
the
evening
.
Then
all
our
past
sufferings
were
forgotten
.
The
remembrance
of
that
imprisonment
in
the
ice
was
effaced
from
our
minds
.
We
only
thought
of
the
future
.
Captain
Nemo
did
not
appear
again
either
in
the
drawing-room
or
on
the
platform
.
The
point
shown
each
day
on
the
planisphere
,
and
,
marked
by
the
lieutenant
,
showed
me
the
exact
direction
of
the
Nautilus
.
Now
,
on
that
evening
,
it
was
evident
,
to
,
my
great
satisfaction
,
that
we
were
going
back
to
the
North
by
the
Atlantic
.
The
next
day
,
April
1st
,
when
the
Nautilus
ascended
to
the
surface
some
minutes
before
noon
,
we
sighted
land
to
the
west
.
It
was
Terra
del
Fuego
,
which
the
first
navigators
named
thus
from
seeing
the
quantity
of
smoke
that
rose
from
the
natives
'
huts
.
The
coast
seemed
low
to
me
,
but
in
the
distance
rose
high
mountains
.
I
even
thought
I
had
a
glimpse
of
Mount
Sarmiento
,
that
rises
2,070
yards
above
the
level
of
the
sea
,
with
a
very
pointed
summit
,
which
,
according
as
it
is
misty
or
clear
,
is
a
sign
of
fine
or
of
wet
weather
.
At
this
moment
the
peak
was
clearly
defined
against
the
sky
.
The
Nautilus
,
diving
again
under
the
water
,
approached
the
coast
,
which
was
only
some
few
miles
off
.
From
the
glass
windows
in
the
drawing-room
,
I
saw
long
seaweeds
and
gigantic
fuci
and
varech
,
of
which
the
open
polar
sea
contains
so
many
specimens
,
with
their
sharp
polished
filaments
;
they
measured
about
300
yards
in
length
--
real
cables
,
thicker
than
one
's
thumb
;
and
,
having
great
tenacity
,
they
are
often
used
as
ropes
for
vessels
.
Another
weed
known
as
velp
,
with
leaves
four
feet
long
,
buried
in
the
coral
concretions
,
hung
at
the
bottom
.
It
served
as
nest
and
food
for
myriads
of
crustacea
and
molluscs
,
crabs
,
and
cuttlefish
.
There
seals
and
otters
had
splendid
repasts
,
eating
the
flesh
of
fish
with
sea-vegetables
,
according
to
the
English
fashion
.
Over
this
fertile
and
luxuriant
ground
the
Nautilus
passed
with
great
rapidity
.
Towards
evening
it
approached
the
Falkland
group
,
the
rough
summits
of
which
I
recognised
the
following
day
.
The
depth
of
the
sea
was
moderate
.
On
the
shores
our
nets
brought
in
beautiful
specimens
of
sea
weed
,
and
particularly
a
certain
fucus
,
the
roots
of
which
were
filled
with
the
best
mussels
in
the
world
.
Geese
and
ducks
fell
by
dozens
on
the
platform
,
and
soon
took
their
places
in
the
pantry
on
board
.

When
the
last
heights
of
the
Falklands
had
disappeared
from
the
horizon
,
the
Nautilus
sank
to
between
twenty
and
twenty-five
yards
,
and
followed
the
American
coast
.
Captain
Nemo
did
not
show
himself
.
Until
the
3rd
of
April
we
did
not
quit
the
shores
of
Patagonia
,
sometimes
under
the
ocean
,
sometimes
at
the
surface
.
The
Nautilus
passed
beyond
the
large
estuary
formed
by
the
Uraguay
.
Its
direction
was
northwards
,
and
followed
the
long
windings
of
the
coast
of
South
America
.
We
had
then
made
1,600
miles
since
our
embarkation
in
the
seas
of
Japan
.
About
eleven
o’clock
in
the
morning
the
Tropic
of
Capricorn
was
crossed
on
the
thirty-seventh
meridian
,
and
we
passed
Cape
Frio
standing
out
to
sea
.
Captain
Nemo
,
to
Ned
Land
's
great
displeasure
,
did
not
like
the
neighbourhood
of
the
inhabited
coasts
of
Brazil
,
for
we
went
at
a
giddy
speed
.
Not
a
fish
,
not
a
bird
of
the
swiftest
kind
could
follow
us
,
and
the
natural
curiosities
of
these
seas
escaped
all
observation
.
This
speed
was
kept
up
for
several
days
,
and
in
the
evening
of
the
9th
of
April
we
sighted
the
most
westerly
point
of
South
America
that
forms
Cape
San
Roque
.
But
then
the
Nautilus
swerved
again
,
and
sought
the
lowest
depth
of
a
submarine
valley
which
is
between
this
Cape
and
Sierra
Leone
on
the
African
coast
.
This
valley
bifurcates
to
the
parallel
of
the
Antilles
,
and
terminates
at
the
mouth
by
the
enormous
depression
of
9,000
yards
.
In
this
place
,
the
geological
basin
of
the
ocean
forms
,
as
far
as
the
Lesser
Antilles
,
a
cliff
to
three
and
a
half
miles
perpendicular
in
height
,
and
,
at
the
parallel
of
the
Cape
Verde
Islands
,
an
other
wall
not
less
considerable
,
that
encloses
thus
all
the
sunk
continent
of
the
Atlantic
.
The
bottom
of
this
immense
valley
is
dotted
with
some
mountains
,
that
give
to
these
submarine
places
a
picturesque
aspect
.
I
speak
,
moreover
,
from
the
manuscript
charts
that
were
in
the
library
of
the
Nautilus
--
charts
evidently
due
to
Captain
Nemo
's
hand
,
and
made
after
his
personal
observations
.
For
two
days
the
desert
and
deep
waters
were
visited
by
means
of
the
inclined
planes
.
The
Nautilus
was
furnished
with
long
diagonal
broadsides
which
carried
it
to
all
elevations
.
But
on
the
11th
of
April
it
rose
suddenly
,
and
land
appeared
at
the
mouth
of
the
Amazon
River
,
a
vast
estuary
,
the
embouchure
of
which
is
so
considerable
that
it
freshens
the
sea-water
for
the
distance
of
several
leagues
.

For
several
days
the
Nautilus
kept
off
from
the
American
coast
.
Evidently
it
did
not
wish
to
risk
the
tides
of
the
Gulf
of
Mexico
or
of
the
sea
of
the
Antilles
.
April
16th
,
we
sighted
Martinique
and
Guadaloupe
from
a
distance
of
about
thirty
miles
.
I
saw
their
tall
peaks
for
an
instant
.
The
Canadian
,
who
counted
on
carrying
out
his
projects
in
the
Gulf
,
by
either
landing
or
hailing
one
of
the
numerous
boats
that
coast
from
one
island
to
another
,
was
quite
disheartened
.
Flight
would
have
been
quite
practicable
,
if
Ned
Land
had
been
able
to
take
possession
of
the
boat
without
the
Captain
's
knowledge
.
But
in
the
open
sea
it
could
not
be
thought
of
.
The
Canadian
,
Conseil
,
and
I
had
a
long
conversation
on
this
subject
.
For
six
months
we
had
been
prisoners
on
board
the
Nautilus
.
We
had
travelled
17,000
leagues
;
and
,
as
Ned
Land
said
,
there
was
no
reason
why
it
should
come
to
an
end
.
We
could
hope
nothing
from
the
Captain
of
the
Nautilus
,
but
only
from
ourselves
.
Besides
,
for
some
time
past
he
had
become
graver
,
more
retired
,
less
sociable
.
He
seemed
to
shun
me
.
I
met
him
rarely
.
Formerly
he
was
pleased
to
explain
the
submarine
marvels
to
me
;
now
he
left
me
to
my
studies
,
and
came
no
more
to
the
saloon
.
What
change
had
come
over
him
?
For
what
cause
?
For
my
part
,
I
did
not
wish
to
bury
with
me
my
curious
and
novel
studies
.
I
had
now
the
power
to
write
the
true
book
of
the
sea
;
and
this
book
,
sooner
or
later
,
I
wished
to
see
daylight
.
The
land
nearest
us
was
the
archipelago
of
the
Bahamas
.
There
rose
high
submarine
cliffs
covered
with
large
weeds
.
It
was
about
eleven
o’clock
when
Ned
Land
drew
my
attention
to
a
formidable
pricking
,
like
the
sting
of
an
ant
,
which
was
produced
by
means
of
large
seaweeds
.
"
Well
,
"
I
said
,
"
these
are
proper
caverns
for
poulps
,
and
I
should
not
be
astonished
to
see
some
of
these
monsters
.
"
"
What
!
"
said
Conseil
;
"
cuttlefish
,
real
cuttlefish
of
the
cephalopod
class
?
"
