The
sea
,
the
sea
everywhere
!
"
they
cried
,
as
if
their
lips
could
not
restrain
the
words
which
made
islanders
of
them
.
The
sea
,
indeed
,
formed
an
immense
circular
sheet
of
water
all
around
them
!
Perhaps
,
on
climbing
again
to
the
summit
of
the
cone
,
Cyrus
Harding
had
had
a
hope
of
discovering
some
coast
,
some
island
shore
,
which
he
had
not
been
able
to
perceive
in
the
dark
the
evening
before
.
But
nothing
appeared
on
the
farthest
verge
of
the
horizon
,
that
is
to
say
over
a
radius
of
more
than
fifty
miles
.
No
land
in
sight
.
Not
a
sail
.
Over
all
this
immense
space
the
ocean
alone
was
visible
--
the
island
occupied
the
center
of
a
circumference
which
appeared
to
be
infinite
.
The
engineer
and
his
companions
,
mute
and
motionless
,
surveyed
for
some
minutes
every
point
of
the
ocean
,
examining
it
to
its
most
extreme
limits
.
Even
Pencroft
,
who
possessed
a
marvelous
power
of
sight
,
saw
nothing
;
and
certainly
if
there
had
been
land
at
the
horizon
,
if
it
appeared
only
as
an
indistinct
vapor
,
the
sailor
would
undoubtedly
have
found
it
out
,
for
nature
had
placed
regular
telescopes
under
his
eyebrows
.
From
the
ocean
their
gaze
returned
to
the
island
which
they
commanded
entirely
,
and
the
first
question
was
put
by
Gideon
Spilett
in
these
terms
:
"
About
what
size
is
this
island
?
"
Truly
,
it
did
not
appear
large
in
the
midst
of
the
immense
ocean
.
Cyrus
Harding
reflected
a
few
minutes
;
he
attentively
observed
the
perimeter
of
the
island
,
taking
into
consideration
the
height
at
which
he
was
placed
;
then
,
--
"
My
friends
,
"
said
he
,
"
I
do
not
think
I
am
mistaken
in
giving
to
the
shore
of
the
island
a
circumference
of
more
than
a
hundred
miles
.
"
"
And
consequently
an
area
?
"
"
That
is
difficult
to
estimate
,
"
replied
the
engineer
,
"
for
it
is
so
uneven
.
"
