海底兩萬(wàn)里 第84期 第7章 一種從未見(jiàn)過(guò)的魚(yú)(7)

　　Conseil had to keep me going, and attending to our self-preservation became his sole responsibility.

　　康塞爾不得不來(lái)支持我，我們保全生命的擔(dān)子于是完全落在他一一人身上。

　　I soon heard the poor lad gasping; his breathing became shallow and quick.

　　不久我聽(tīng)到這個(gè)可憐人發(fā)喘了;他的呼吸漸漸短促了。

　　I didn't think he could stand such exertions for much longer.

　　我明白他也不能支持很久了。

　　Go on! Go on! I told him.

　　丟下我吧!丟下我吧!我對(duì)他說(shuō)。

　　Leave master behind? he replied. Never! I'll drown before he does!

　　丟下先生!永遠(yuǎn)不能!他答，我還要死在先生前頭呢!

　　Just then, past the fringes of a large cloud that the wind was driving eastward, the moon appeared.

　　這時(shí)候，有一片厚云被風(fēng)吹向東邊去，月亮露出來(lái)了。

　　The surface of the sea glistened under its rays. That kindly light rekindled our strength.

　　海水在月亮下閃閃發(fā)光。這仁慈的月亮重新鼓起了我們的氣力。

　　I held up my head again. My eyes darted to every point of the horizon. I spotted thefrigate.

　　我的頭又抬起來(lái)。我的眼光向天邊各處了望。我看見(jiàn)了戰(zhàn)艦。

　　It was five miles from us and formed no more than a dark, barely perceptible mass. But as for longboats, not a one in sight!

　　它在離我們五海里的海面，只是模糊不清的漆黑一團(tuán)。但小艇呢，一只也沒(méi)有!
