Had
not
its
eyes
,
placed
at
the
back
of
its
head
,
considerable
development
?
"
"
Yes
,
Conseil
.
"
"
And
was
not
its
mouth
like
a
parrot
's
beak
?

Exactly
,
Conseil
.
"
"
Very
well
!
no
offence
to
master
,
"
he
replied
,
quietly
;
"
if
this
is
not
Bouguer
's
cuttlefish
,
it
is
,
at
least
,
one
of
its
brothers
.
"
I
looked
at
Conseil
.
Ned
Land
hurried
to
the
window
.
"
What
a
horrible
beast
!
"
he
cried

I
looked
in
my
turn
,
and
could
not
repress
a
gesture
of
disgust
.
Before
my
eyes
was
a
horrible
monster
worthy
to
figure
in
the
legends
of
the
marvellous
.
It
was
an
immense
cuttlefish
,
being
eight
yards
long
.
It
swam
crossways
in
the
direction
of
the
Nautilus
with
great
speed
,
watching
us
with
its
enormous
staring
green
eyes
.
Its
eight
arms
,
or
rather
feet
,
fixed
to
its
head
,
that
have
given
the
name
of
cephalopod
to
these
animals
,
were
twice
as
long
as
its
body
,
and
were
twisted
like
the
furies
'
hair
.
One
could
see
the
250
air
holes
on
the
inner
side
of
the
tentacles
.
The
monster
's
mouth
,
a
horned
beak
like
a
parrot
's
,
opened
and
shut
vertically
.
Its
tongue
,
a
horned
substance
,
furnished
with
several
rows
of
pointed
teeth
,
came
out
quivering
from
this
veritable
pair
of
shears
.
What
a
freak
of
nature
,
a
bird
's
beak
on
a
mollusc
!
Its
spindle-like
body
formed
a
fleshy
mass
that
might
weigh
4,000
to
5,000
lb
.
;
the
,
varying
colour
changing
with
great
rapidity
,
according
to
the
irritation
of
the
animal
,
passed
successively
from
livid
grey
to
reddish
brown
.
What
irritated
this
mollusc
?
No
doubt
the
presence
of
the
Nautilus
,
more
formidable
than
itself
,
and
on
which
its
suckers
or
its
jaws
had
no
hold
.
Yet
,
what
monsters
these
poulps
are
!
what
vitality
the
Creator
has
given
them
!
what
vigour
in
their
movements
!
and
they
possess
three
hearts
!
Chance
had
brought
us
in
presence
of
this
cuttlefish
,
and
I
did
not
wish
to
lose
the
opportunity
of
carefully
studying
this
specimen
of
cephalopods
.
I
overcame
the
horror
that
inspired
me
,
and
,
taking
a
pencil
,
began
to
draw
it
.
"
Perhaps
this
is
the
same
which
the
Alector
saw
,
"
said
Conseil
.
