It
was
on
the
coast
of
Tehama
,
for
there
not
only
did
this
display
of
zoophytes
flourish
beneath
the
level
of
the
sea
,
but
they
also
formed
picturesque
interlacings
which
unfolded
themselves
about
sixty
feet
above
the
surface
,
more
capricious
but
less
highly
coloured
than
those
whose
freshness
was
kept
up
by
the
vital
power
of
the
waters
.
What
charming
hours
I
passed
thus
at
the
window
of
the
saloon
!
What
new
specimens
of
submarine
flora
and
fauna
did
I
admire
under
the
brightness
of
our
electric
lantern
!
The
9th
of
February
the
Nautilus
floated
in
the
broadest
part
of
the
Red
Sea
,
which
is
comprised
between
Souakin
,
on
the
west
coast
,
and
Komfidah
,
on
the
east
coast
,
with
a
diameter
of
ninety
miles
.
That
day
at
noon
,
after
the
bearings
were
taken
,
Captain
Nemo
mounted
the
platform
,
where
I
happened
to
be
,
and
I
was
determined
not
to
let
him
go
down
again
without
at
least
pressing
him
regarding
his
ulterior
projects
.
As
soon
as
he
saw
me
he
approached
and
graciously
offered
me
a
cigar
.
"
Well
,
sir
,
does
this
Red
Sea
please
you
?
Have
you
sufficiently
observed
the
wonders
it
covers
,
its
fishes
,
its
zoophytes
,
its
parterres
of
sponges
,
and
its
forests
of
coral
?
Did
you
catch
a
glimpse
of
the
towns
on
its
borders
?
"
"
Yes
,
Captain
Nemo
,
"
I
replied
;
"
and
the
Nautilus
is
wonderfully
fitted
for
such
a
study
.
Ah
!
it
is
an
intelligent
boat
!
"
"
Yes
,
sir
,
intelligent
and
invulnerable
.
It
fears
neither
the
terrible
tempests
of
the
Red
Sea
,
nor
its
currents
,
nor
its
sandbanks
.
"
"
Certainly
,
"
said
I
,
"
this
sea
is
quoted
as
one
of
the
worst
,
and
in
the
time
of
the
ancients
,
if
I
am
not
mistaken
,
its
reputation
was
detestable
.
"
"
Detestable
,
M.
Aronnax
.
The
Greek
and
Latin
historians
do
not
speak
favourably
of
it
,
and
Strabo
says
it
is
very
dangerous
during
the
Etesian
winds
and
in
the
rainy
season
.
The
Arabian
Edrisi
portrays
it
under
the
name
of
the
Gulf
of
Colzoum
,
and
relates
that
vessels
perished
there
in
great
numbers
on
the
sandbanks
and
that
no
one
would
risk
sailing
in
the
night
.
It
is
,
he
pretends
,
a
sea
subject
to
fearful
hurricanes
,
strewn
with
inhospitable
islands
,
and
`
which
offers
nothing
good
either
on
its
surface
or
in
its
depths
.
'
"
"
One
may
see
,
"
I
replied
,
"
that
these
historians
never
sailed
on
board
the
Nautilus
.
