I believe that we are not far from the centre now.
The chances of safety are very slight when the earth opens to receive us.
The sea is everything. It covers seven-tenths of the terrestrial globe. Its breath is pure and healthy.
I could not tell you the depth to which we have descended.
I felt that the descent was very rapid, and for half an hour we passed through the Earth's crust.
We were overcome with awe and admiration, like the traveler who was silent in the presence of the cataract of Niagara.
I could not help giving way to the emotion of incredulity.
We were in the immense hollow that held the sea itself!
We were in the hands of the most terrible of tempests!
I am almost certain that I have seen traces of man's hand.
We were the playthings of the mighty ocean!
We shall not go far; I feel too much fatigued.
