Because
then
the
orb
of
day
described
such
lengthened
curves
that
it
is
difficult
to
measure
exactly
its
height
above
the
horizon
,
and
grave
errors
may
be
made
with
instruments
.
"
"
What
will
you
do
then
?
"
"
I
shall
only
use
my
chronometer
,
"
replied
Captain
Nemo
.
"
If
to-morrow
,
the
21st
of
March
,
the
disc
of
the
sun
,
allowing
for
refraction
,
is
exactly
cut
by
the
northern
horizon
,
it
will
show
that
I
am
at
the
South
Pole
.
"
"
Just
so
,
"
said
I.
"
But
this
statement
is
not
mathematically
correct
,
because
the
equinox
does
not
necessarily
begin
at
noon
.
"
"
Very
likely
,
sir
;
but
the
error
will
not
be
a
hundred
yards
and
we
do
not
want
more
.
Till
to-morrow
,
then
!
"
Captain
Nemo
returned
on
board
.
Conseil
and
I
remained
to
survey
the
shore
,
observing
and
studying
until
five
o’clock
.
Then
I
went
to
bed
,
not
,
however
,
without
invoking
,
like
the
Indian
,
the
favour
of
the
radiant
orb
.
The
next
day
,
the
21st
of
March
,
at
five
in
the
morning
,
I
mounted
the
platform
.
I
found
Captain
Nemo
there
.
"
The
weather
is
lightening
a
little
,
"
said
he
.
"
I
have
some
hope
.
After
breakfast
we
will
go
on
shore
and
choose
a
post
for
observation
.
"
That
point
settled
,
I
sought
Ned
Land
.
I
wanted
to
take
him
with
me
.
But
the
obstinate
Canadian
refused
,
and
I
saw
that
his
taciturnity
and
his
bad
humour
grew
day
by
day
.
After
all
,
I
was
not
sorry
for
his
obstinacy
under
the
circumstances
.
Indeed
,
there
were
too
many
seals
on
shore
,
and
we
ought
not
to
lay
such
temptation
in
this
unreflecting
fisherman
's
way
.
Breakfast
over
,
we
went
on
shore
.
The
Nautilus
had
gone
some
miles
further
up
in
the
night
.
It
was
a
whole
league
from
the
coast
,
above
which
reared
a
sharp
peak
about
five
hundred
yards
high
.
The
boat
took
with
me
Captain
Nemo
,
two
men
of
the
crew
,
and
the
instruments
,
which
consisted
of
a
chronometer
,
a
telescope
,
and
a
barometer
.
While
crossing
,
I
saw
numerous
whales
belonging
to
the
three
kinds
peculiar
to
the
southern
seas
;
the
whale
,
or
the
English
"
right
whale
,
"
which
has
no
dorsal
fin
;
the
"
humpback
,
"
with
reeved
chest
and
large
,
whitish
fins
,
which
,
in
spite
of
its
name
,
do
not
form
wings
;
and
the
fin-back
,
of
a
yellowish
brown
,
the
liveliest
of
all
the
cetacea
.
This
powerful
creature
is
heard
a
long
way
off
when
he
throws
to
a
great
height
columns
of
air
and
vapour
,
which
look
like
whirlwinds
of
smoke
.
These
different
mammals
were
disporting
themselves
in
troops
in
the
quiet
waters
;
and
I
could
see
that
this
basin
of
the
Antarctic
Pole
serves
as
a
place
of
refuge
to
the
cetacea
too
closely
tracked
by
the
hunters
.
I
also
noticed
large
medusae
floating
between
the
reeds
.
At
nine
we
landed
;
the
sky
was
brightening
,
the
clouds
were
flying
to
the
south
,
and
the
fog
seemed
to
be
leaving
the
cold
surface
of
the
waters
.
Captain
Nemo
went
towards
the
peak
,
which
he
doubtless
meant
to
be
his
observatory
.
It
was
a
painful
ascent
over
the
sharp
lava
and
the
pumice-stones
,
in
an
atmosphere
often
impregnated
with
a
sulphurous
smell
from
the
smoking
cracks
.
For
a
man
unaccustomed
to
walk
on
land
,
the
Captain
climbed
the
steep
slopes
with
an
agility
I
never
saw
equalled
and
which
a
hunter
would
have
envied
.
We
were
two
hours
getting
to
the
summit
of
this
peak
,
which
was
half
porphyry
and
half
basalt
.
