Dreadful to hear, Captain Nemo was even more dreadful to see. His face was pale from some spasm of his heart, which must have stopped beating for an instant. His pupils were hideously contracted. His voice was no longer speaking, it was bellowing. Bending from the waist, he shook the Canadian by the shoulders.
尼摩船長的聲音聽起來很可怕，臉色看上去則更可怕。他的臉色由于心臟的抽搐而蒼白，瞳孔嚇人地收縮著，他的心跳大概停了一下。他此時的喉嚨不再是在說話，而是在吼叫。他的身體向前傾，雙手攫住加拿大人的肩膀。
Then, dropping Ned and turning to the battleship, whose shells were showering around him: O ship of an accursed nation, you know who I am! he shouted in his powerful voice. "And I don't need your colors to recognize you! Look! I'll show you mine!"
接著，船長松開加拿大人，朝著炮彈像雨點般落在他身旁的戰艦轉過身去，用盡全身力氣吼道：“啊！你知道我是誰，你這該死的國家的船！你就是燒成骨灰我也能認出你！瞧吧！我讓你看看我的旗幟！”
And in the bow of the platform, Captain Nemo unfurled a black flag, like the one he had left planted at the South Pole.
說完，尼摩船長在平臺前面展開了一面跟他先前插在南極點的那一面相像的黑旗。
Just then a shell hit the Nautilus's hull obliquely, failed to breach it, ricocheted near the captain, and vanished into the sea.
就在這時，一顆炮彈斜斜地擊中了“鸚鵡螺號”的船殼，彈過船長的身旁，落到了海里，但沒有傷害到船。
Captain Nemo shrugged his shoulders. Then, addressing me: Go below! he told me in a curt tone. "You and your companions, go below!"
尼摩船長聳聳肩膀。然后，口氣生硬地對我說： “請下去吧，您和您的同伴請下去。”
Sir, I exclaimed, "are you going to attack this ship?"
“先生，”我喊道，“您想攻擊這艘船嗎？”
Sir, I'm going to sink it.
“先生，我要擊沉它。”
You wouldn't!
“您不能這么做！”
I will, Captain Nemo replied icily. "You're ill-advised to pass judgment on me, sir. Fate has shown you what you weren't meant to see. The attack has come. Our reply will be dreadful. Get back inside!"
“我要這么做，”尼摩船長冷酷地說，“用不著您來對我指手劃腳，先生。命運讓您看到了您不該看到的事情。進攻要開始了，反擊是很可怕的。請進去吧。”
