"Then we'll die together, Ned my friend."
“要死我们一起死，尼德朋友。”
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.
我下定一切决心，加拿大人就走了。随后，我登上平台，上面海涛阵阵，我几乎都站不稳。风雨欲来，但既然陆地就在那片浓雾中，我们就应该逃走。我们不能再错过一天或者一个小时了。
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...!
我回到客厅，又怕见又想见到尼摩船长，想见又不想见到他。我该跟他说什么呢？我能隐藏得住他使我心里对他产生的不情愿的厌恶情绪吗！不！那最好还是不要面对面地碰到他！最好把他忘掉！本来就该这样！
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“鹦鹉螺号”船上度过的这最后一天是多么的漫长啊！我单独地呆着。尼德·兰和康塞尔因害怕走漏风声，所以都不跟我说话。
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点钟吃晚餐的时候，我一点也不饿。但我不想让自己虚脱了，尽管反胃，还是强迫自己吃了饭。
At 6:30 Ned Land entered my stateroom. He told me:
6点半，尼德·兰走进我的房间。他对我说：
"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."
“出发前我们不再见面了。10点钟，月亮还没升起的时候，我们趁着黑暗逃走。您到小艇里去，我和康塞尔，我们在那里等您。”
