What
is
beyond
?
”
“
Nothing
in
sight
.
”
It
took
West
very
little
time
to
reach
the
point
of
observation
,
and
we
all
waited
below
,
how
impatiently
may
be
imagined
.
What
if
the
look
-
out
were
mistaken
,
if
some
optical
delusion
?
—
But
West
,
at
all
events
,
would
make
no
mistake
.
After
ten
interminable
minutes
his
clear
voice
reached
us
on
the
deck
.
“
Open
sea
!
”
he
cried
.
Unanimous
cheers
made
answer
The
schooner
’
s
head
was
put
to
the
south
-
east
,
hugging
the
wind
as
much
as
possible
.
Two
hours
later
we
had
doubled
the
extremity
of
the
ice
-
barrier
,
and
there
lay
before
our
eyes
a
sparkling
sea
,
entirely
open
.

The
French
word
is
banquise
,
which
means
the
vast
stretch
of
icebergs
farther
south
than
the
barrière
or
ice
wall
.
Entirely
free
from
ice
?
No
.
It
would
have
been
premature
to
affirm
this
as
a
fact
.
A
few
icebergs
were
visible
in
the
distance
,
while
some
drifts
and
packs
were
still
going
east
.
Nevertheless
,
the
break
-
up
had
been
very
thorough
on
that
side
,
and
the
sea
was
in
reality
open
,
since
a
ship
could
sail
freely
.
