I
noticed
that
the
green
plants
kept
nearer
the
top
of
the
sea
,
whilst
the
red
were
at
a
greater
depth
,
leaving
to
the
black
or
brown
the
care
of
forming
gardens
and
parterres
in
the
remote
beds
of
the
ocean
.
We
had
quitted
the
Nautilus
about
an
hour
and
a
half
.
It
was
near
noon
;
I
knew
by
the
perpendicularity
of
the
sun
's
rays
,
which
were
no
longer
refracted
.
The
magical
colours
disappeared
by
degrees
,
and
the
shades
of
emerald
and
sapphire
were
effaced
.
We
walked
with
a
regular
step
,
which
rang
upon
the
ground
with
astonishing
intensity
;
the
slightest
noise
was
transmitted
with
a
quickness
to
which
the
ear
is
unaccustomed
on
the
earth
;
indeed
,
water
is
a
better
conductor
of
sound
than
air
,
in
the
ratio
of
four
to
one
.
At
this
period
the
earth
sloped
downwards
;
the
light
took
a
uniform
tint
.
We
were
at
a
depth
of
a
hundred
and
five
yards
and
twenty
inches
,
undergoing
a
pressure
of
six
atmospheres
.
At
this
depth
I
could
still
see
the
rays
of
the
sun
,
though
feebly
;
to
their
intense
brilliancy
had
succeeded
a
reddish
twilight
,
the
lowest
state
between
day
and
night
;
but
we
could
still
see
well
enough
;
it
was
not
necessary
to
resort
to
the
Ruhmkorff
apparatus
as
yet
.
At
this
moment
Captain
Nemo
stopped
;
he
waited
till
I
joined
him
,
and
then
pointed
to
an
obscure
mass
,
looming
in
the
shadow
,
at
a
short
distance
.
"
It
is
the
forest
of
the
Island
of
Crespo
,
"
thought
I
;
and
I
was
not
mistaken
.
We
had
at
last
arrived
on
the
borders
of
this
forest
,
doubtless
one
of
the
finest
of
Captain
Nemo
's
immense
domains
.
He
looked
upon
it
as
his
own
,
and
considered
he
had
the
same
right
over
it
that
the
first
men
had
in
the
first
days
of
the
world
.
And
,
indeed
,
who
would
have
disputed
with
him
the
possession
of
this
submarine
property
?
What
other
hardier
pioneer
would
come
,
hatchet
in
hand
,
to
cut
down
the
dark
copses
?
This
forest
was
composed
of
large
tree-plants
;
and
the
moment
we
penetrated
under
its
vast
arcades
,
I
was
struck
by
the
singular
position
of
their
branches
--
a
position
I
had
not
yet
observed
.
Not
an
herb
which
carpeted
the
ground
,
not
a
branch
which
clothed
the
trees
,
was
either
broken
or
bent
,
nor
did
they
extend
horizontally
;
all
stretched
up
to
the
surface
of
the
ocean
.
Not
a
filament
,
not
a
ribbon
,
however
thin
they
might
be
,
but
kept
as
straight
as
a
rod
of
iron
.
The
fuci
and
llianas
grew
in
rigid
perpendicular
lines
,
due
to
the
density
of
the
element
which
had
produced
them
.
Motionless
yet
,
when
bent
to
one
side
by
the
hand
,
they
directly
resumed
their
former
position
.
Truly
it
was
the
region
of
perpendicularity
!
I
soon
accustomed
myself
to
this
fantastic
position
,
as
well
as
to
the
comparative
darkness
which
surrounded
us
.
The
soil
of
the
forest
seemed
covered
with
sharp
blocks
,
difficult
to
avoid
.
The
submarine
flora
struck
me
as
being
very
perfect
,
and
richer
even
than
it
would
have
been
in
the
arctic
or
tropical
zones
,
where
these
productions
are
not
so
plentiful
.
But
for
some
minutes
I
involuntarily
confounded
the
genera
,
taking
animals
for
plants
;
and
who
would
not
have
been
mistaken
?
The
fauna
and
the
flora
are
too
closely
allied
in
this
submarine
world
.
These
plants
are
self-propagated
,
and
the
principle
of
their
existence
is
in
the
water
,
which
upholds
and
nourishes
them
.
The
greater
number
,
instead
of
leaves
,
shoot
forth
blades
of
capricious
shapes
,
comprised
within
a
scale
of
colours
pink
,
carmine
,
green
,
olive
,
fawn
,
and
brown
.
"
Curious
anomaly
,
fantastic
element
!
"
said
an
ingenious
naturalist
,
"
in
which
the
animal
kingdom
blossoms
,
and
the
vegetable
does
not
!
"
