"Then we'll die together, Ned my friend."
“要死我們一起死，尼德朋友?！?/div>
My mind was made up. The Canadian left me. I went out on the platform, where I could barely stand upright against the jolts of the billows. The skies were threatening, but land lay inside those dense mists, and we had to escape. Not a single day, or even a single hour, could we afford to lose.
我下定一切決心，加拿大人就走了。隨后，我登上平臺，上面海濤陣陣，我幾乎都站不穩。風雨欲來，但既然陸地就在那片濃霧中，我們就應該逃走。我們不能再錯過一天或者一個小時了。
I returned to the lounge, dreading yet desiring an encounter with Captain Nemo, wanting yet not wanting to see him. What would I say to him? How could I hide the involuntary horror he inspired in me? No! It was best not to meet him face to face! Best to try and forget him! And yet...!
我回到客廳，又怕見又想見到尼摩船長，想見又不想見到他。我該跟他說什么呢？我能隱藏得住他使我心里對他產生的不情愿的厭惡情緒嗎！不！那最好還是不要面對面地碰到他！最好把他忘掉！本來就該這樣！
How long that day seemed, the last I would spend aboard the Nautilus! I was left to myself. Ned Land and Conseil avoided speaking to me, afraid they would give themselves away.
我在“鸚鵡螺號”船上度過的這最后一天是多么的漫長??！我單獨地呆著。尼德·蘭和康塞爾因害怕走漏風聲，所以都不跟我說話。
At six o'clock I ate supper, but I had no appetite. Despite my revulsion, I forced it down, wanting to keep my strength up.
6點鐘吃晚餐的時候，我一點也不餓。但我不想讓自己虛脫了，盡管反胃，還是強迫自己吃了飯。
At 6:30 Ned Land entered my stateroom. He told me:
6點半，尼德·蘭走進我的房間。他對我說：
"We won't see each other again before we go. At ten o'clock the moon won't be up yet. We'll take advantage of the darkness. Come to the skiff. Conseil and I will be inside waiting for you."
“出發前我們不再見面了。10點鐘，月亮還沒升起的時候，我們趁著黑暗逃走。您到小艇里去，我和康塞爾，我們在那里等您?！?/p>
