our

Guns
!
What
for
?
Do
not
mountaineers
attack
the
bear
with
a
dagger
in
their
hand
,
and
is
not
steel
surer
than
lead
?
Here
is
a
strong
blade
;
put
it
in
your
belt
,
and
we
start
.
"
I
looked
at
my
companions
;
they
were
armed
like
us
,
and
,
more
than
that
,
Ned
Land
was
brandishing
an
enormous
harpoon
,
which
he
had
placed
in
the
boat
before
leaving
the
Nautilus
.
Then
,
following
the
Captain
's
example
,
I
allowed
myself
to
be
dressed
in
the
heavy
copper
helmet
,
and
our
reservoirs
of
air
were
at
once
in
activity
.
An
instant
after
we
were
landed
,
one
after
the
other
,
in
about
two
yards
of
water
upon
an
even
sand
.
Captain
Nemo
made
a
sign
with
his
hand
,
and
we
followed
him
by
a
gentle
declivity
till
we
disappeared
under
the
waves
.
Over
our
feet
,
like
coveys
of
snipe
in
a
bog
,
rose
shoals
of
fish
,
of
the
genus
monoptera
,
which
have
no
other
fins
but
their
tail
.
I
recognized
the
Javanese
,
a
real
serpent
two
and
a
half
feet
long
,
of
a
livid
colour
underneath
,
and
which
might
easily
be
mistaken
for
a
conger
eel
if
it
were
not
for
the
golden
stripes
on
its
side
.
In
the
genus
stromateus
,
whose
bodies
are
very
flat
and
oval
,
I
saw
some
of
the
most
brilliant
colours
,
carrying
their
dorsal
fin
like
a
scythe
;
an
excellent
eating
fish
,
which
,
dried
and
pickled
,
is
known
by
the
name
of
Karawade
;
then
some
tranquebars
,
belonging
to
the
genus
apsiphoroides
,
whose
body
is
covered
with
a
shell
cuirass
of
eight
longitudinal
plates
.
The
heightening
sun
lit
the
mass
of
waters
more
and
more
.
The
soil
changed
by
degrees
.
To
the
fine
sand
succeeded
a
perfect
causeway
of
boulders
,
covered
with
a
carpet
of
molluscs
and
zoophytes
.
Amongst
the
specimens
of
these
branches
I
noticed
some
placenae
,
with
thin
unequal
shells
,
a
kind
of
ostracion
peculiar
to
the
Red
Sea
and
the
Indian
Ocean
;
some
orange
lucinae
with
rounded
shells
;
rockfish
three
feet
and
a
half
long
,
which
raised
themselves
under
the
waves
like
hands
ready
to
seize
one
.
There
were
also
some
panopyres
,
slightly
luminous
;
and
lastly
,
some
oculines
,
like
magnificent
fans
,
forming
one
of
the
richest
vegetations
of
these
seas
.
In
the
midst
of
these
living
plants
,
and
under
the
arbours
of
the
hydrophytes
,
were
layers
of
clumsy
articulates
,
particularly
some
raninae
,
whose
carapace
formed
a
slightly
rounded
triangle
;
and
some
horrible
looking
parthenopes
.
At
about
seven
o’clock
we
found
ourselves
at
last
surveying
the
oyster-banks
on
which
the
pearl-oysters
are
reproduced
by
millions
.
Captain
Nemo
pointed
with
his
hand
to
the
enormous
heap
of
oysters
;
and
I
could
well
understand
that
this
mine
was
inexhaustible
,
for
Nature
's
creative
power
is
far
beyond
man
's
instinct
of
destruction
.
