The
boat
flew
over
the
waves
.
Some
minutes
after
we
met
the
shark
's
dead
body
floating
.
By
the
black
marking
of
the
extremity
of
its
fins
,
I
recognised
the
terrible
melanopteron
of
the
Indian
Seas
,
of
the
species
of
shark
so
properly
called
.
It
was
more
than
twenty-five
feet
long
;
its
enormous
mouth
occupied
one-third
of
its
body
.
It
was
an
adult
,
as
was
known
by
its
six
rows
of
teeth
placed
in
an
isosceles
triangle
in
the
upper
jaw
.
Whilst
I
was
contemplating
this
inert
mass
,
a
dozen
of
these
voracious
beasts
appeared
round
the
boat
;
and
,
without
noticing
us
,
threw
themselves
upon
the
dead
body
and
fought
with
one
another
for
the
pieces
.
At
half-past
eight
we
were
again
on
board
the
Nautilus
.
There
I
reflected
on
the
incidents
which
had
taken
place
in
our
excursion
to
the
Manaar
Bank
.
Two
conclusions
I
must
inevitably
draw
from
it
--
one
bearing
upon
the
unparalleled
courage
of
Captain
Nemo
,
the
other
upon
his
devotion
to
a
human
being
,
a
representative
of
that
race
from
which
he
fled
beneath
the
sea
.
Whatever
he
might
say
,
this
strange
man
had
not
yet
succeeded
in
entirely
crushing
his
heart
.
When
I
made
this
observation
to
him
,
he
answered
in
a
slightly
moved
tone
:
"
That
Indian
,
sir
,
is
an
inhabitant
of
an
oppressed
country
;
and
I
am
still
,
and
shall
be
,
to
my
last
breath
,
one
of
them
!
"
In
the
course
of
the
day
of
the
29th
of
January
,
the
island
of
Ceylon
disappeared
under
the
horizon
,
and
the
Nautilus
,
at
a
speed
of
twenty
miles
an
hour
,
slid
into
the
labyrinth
of
canals
which
separate
the
Maldives
from
the
Laccadives
.
It
coasted
even
the
Island
of
Kiltan
,
a
land
originally
coraline
,
discovered
by
Vasco
da
Gama
in
1499
,
and
one
of
the
nineteen
principal
islands
of
the
Laccadive
Archipelago
,
situated
between
10
°
and
14
°
30
'
N.
lat
.
,
and
69
°
50
'
72
"
E.
long
.
We
had
made
16,220
miles
,
or
7,500
-LRB-
French
-RRB-
leagues
from
our
starting-point
in
the
Japanese
Seas
.
The
next
day
-LRB-
30th
January
-RRB-
,
when
the
Nautilus
went
to
the
surface
of
the
ocean
there
was
no
land
in
sight
.
Its
course
was
N.
N.
E.
,
in
the
direction
of
the
Sea
of
Oman
,
between
Arabia
and
the
Indian
Peninsula
,
which
serves
as
an
outlet
to
the
Persian
Gulf
.
It
was
evidently
a
block
without
any
possible
egress
.
Where
was
Captain
Nemo
taking
us
to
?
I
could
not
say
.
This
,
however
,
did
not
satisfy
the
Canadian
,
who
that
day
came
to
me
asking
where
we
were
going
.
"
We
are
going
where
our
Captain
's
fancy
takes
us
,
Master
Ned
.
