海底兩萬里 第104期 第8章 動中之動(7)

　　I felt involuntarily reassured in his presence, and this boded well for our interview.

　　我看見這個人在面前，心中自然而然地覺得很安定，我預(yù)料我們的會談將很順利。

　　這個人究竟是三十五歲還是五十歲，我可不能確定。

　　He was tall, his forehead broad, his nose straight, his mouth clearly etched, his teeth magnificent, his hands refined, tapered,

　　他的身材高大，他的前額寬闊，鼻子筆直，嘴唇平正，牙齒齊整，兩手細長，

　　and to use a word from palmistry, highly psychic,in other words, worthy of serving a lofty and passionate spirit.

　　用手相學家的話來說，特別精靈，就是說。正好配得上他富有情感的心靈。

　　This man was certainly the most wonderful physical specimen I had ever encountered.

　　這人可能是我從來沒有碰見過的最完美的人型。

　　One unusual detail: his eyes were spaced a little far from each other and could instantly take in nearly a quarter of the horizon.

　　更有一個細微的特征，他的兩個眼睛，彼此隔開略遠一些，可以把整個一方景色同時收入眼簾中。

　　This ability-as I later verified-was strengthened by a range of vision even greater than Ned Land's.

　　這一特點—我在以后證實了—使他的眼力比尼德·蘭的還要高強。
