One
day
he
was
leaning
on
the
railing
of
the
engine-room
,
and
was
observing
the
engine
,
when
a
sudden
pitch
of
the
steamer
threw
the
screw
out
of
the
water
.
The
steam
came
hissing
out
of
the
valves
;
and
this
made
Passepartout
indignant
.
"
The
valves
are
not
sufficiently
charged
!
"
he
exclaimed
.
"
We
are
not
going
.
Oh
,
these
English
!
If
this
was
an
American
craft
,
we
should
blow
up
,
perhaps
,
but
we
should
at
all
events
go
faster
!
"
The
weather
was
bad
during
the
latter
days
of
the
voyage
.
The
wind
,
obstinately
remaining
in
the
north-west
,
blew
a
gale
,
and
retarded
the
steamer
.
The
Rangoon
rolled
heavily
and
the
passengers
became
impatient
of
the
long
,
monstrous
waves
which
the
wind
raised
before
their
path
.
A
sort
of
tempest
arose
on
the
3rd
of
November
,
the
squall
knocking
the
vessel
about
with
fury
,
and
the
waves
running
high
.
The
Rangoon
reefed
all
her
sails
,
and
even
the
rigging
proved
too
much
,
whistling
and
shaking
amid
the
squall
.
The
steamer
was
forced
to
proceed
slowly
,
and
the
captain
estimated
that
she
would
reach
Hong
Kong
twenty
hours
behind
time
,
and
more
if
the
storm
lasted
.
Phileas
Fogg
gazed
at
the
tempestuous
sea
,
which
seemed
to
be
struggling
especially
to
delay
him
,
with
his
habitual
tranquillity
.
He
never
changed
countenance
for
an
instant
,
though
a
delay
of
twenty
hours
,
by
making
him
too
late
for
the
Yokohama
boat
,
would
almost
inevitably
cause
the
loss
of
the
wager
.
But
this
man
of
nerve
manifested
neither
impatience
nor
annoyance
;
it
seemed
as
if
the
storm
were
a
part
of
his
programme
,
and
had
been
foreseen
.
Aouda
was
amazed
to
find
him
as
calm
as
he
had
been
from
the
first
time
she
saw
him
.
Fix
did
not
look
at
the
state
of
things
in
the
same
light
.
The
storm
greatly
pleased
him
.
His
satisfaction
would
have
been
complete
had
the
Rangoon
been
forced
to
retreat
before
the
violence
of
wind
and
waves
.
Each
delay
filled
him
with
hope
,
for
it
became
more
and
more
probable
that
Fogg
would
be
obliged
to
remain
some
days
at
Hong
Kong
;
and
now
the
heavens
themselves
became
his
allies
,
with
the
gusts
and
squalls
.
It
mattered
not
that
they
made
him
sea-sick
--
he
made
no
account
of
this
inconvenience
;
and
,
whilst
his
body
was
writhing
under
their
effects
,
his
spirit
bounded
with
hopeful
exultation
.
Passepartout
was
enraged
beyond
expression
by
the
unpropitious
weather
.
Everything
had
gone
so
well
till
now
!
Earth
and
sea
had
seemed
to
be
at
his
master
's
service
;
steamers
and
railways
obeyed
him
;
wind
and
steam
united
to
speed
his
journey
.
Had
the
hour
of
adversity
come
?
Passepartout
was
as
much
excited
as
if
the
twenty
thousand
pounds
were
to
come
from
his
own
pocket
.
The
storm
exasperated
him
,
the
gale
made
him
furious
,
and
he
longed
to
lash
the
obstinate
sea
into
obedience
.
Poor
fellow
!
Fix
carefully
concealed
from
him
his
own
satisfaction
,
for
,
had
he
betrayed
it
,
Passepartout
could
scarcely
have
restrained
himself
from
personal
violence
.
Passepartout
remained
on
deck
as
long
as
the
tempest
lasted
,
being
unable
to
remain
quiet
below
,
and
taking
it
into
his
head
to
aid
the
progress
of
the
ship
by
lending
a
hand
with
the
crew
.
He
overwhelmed
the
captain
,
officers
,
and
sailors
,
who
could
not
help
laughing
at
his
impatience
,
with
all
sorts
of
questions
.
He
wanted
to
know
exactly
how
long
the
storm
was
going
to
last
;
whereupon
he
was
referred
to
the
barometer
,
which
seemed
to
have
no
intention
of
rising
.
Passepartout
shook
it
,
but
with
no
perceptible
effect
;
for
neither
shaking
nor
maledictions
could
prevail
upon
it
to
change
its
mind
.
On
the
4th
,
however
,
the
sea
became
more
calm
,
and
the
storm
lessened
its
violence
;
the
wind
veered
southward
,
and
was
once
more
favourable
.
Passepartout
cleared
up
with
the
weather
.
Some
of
the
sails
were
unfurled
,
and
the
Rangoon
resumed
its
most
rapid
speed
.
The
time
lost
could
not
,
however
,
be
regained
.
Land
was
not
signalled
until
five
o'clock
on
the
morning
of
the
6th
;
the
steamer
was
due
on
the
5th
.
Phileas
Fogg
was
twenty-four
hours
behind-hand
,
and
the
Yokohama
steamer
would
,
of
course
,
be
missed
.
The
pilot
went
on
board
at
six
,
and
took
his
place
on
the
bridge
,
to
guide
the
Rangoon
through
the
channels
to
the
port
of
Hong
Kong
.
Passepartout
longed
to
ask
him
if
the
steamer
had
left
for
Yokohama
;
but
he
dared
not
,
for
he
wished
to
preserve
the
spark
of
hope
,
which
still
remained
till
the
last
moment
.
He
had
confided
his
anxiety
to
Fix
who
--
the
sly
rascal
!
--
tried
to
console
him
by
saying
that
Mr.
Fogg
would
be
in
time
if
he
took
the
next
boat
;
but
this
only
put
Passepartout
in
a
passion
.
