   What strange power was carrying us along?

  把我们带走的是什么奇异的力量?
  I felt-or at least I thought I did-the submersible sinking toward the sea's lower strata1.
  我感到—不如说我以为感到—这船正向海底最深的地方下沉。
  Intense nightmares besieged2 me.
  许多恶梦把我纠缠住了。
  In these mysterious marine3 sanctuaries4, I envisioned hosts of unknown animals, and this underwater boat seemed to be a blood relation of theirs:
  我在这神秘的避难所里面,窥见一大群没人知道的动物,这只潜水艇似乎是它们的同类,
  living, breathing, just as fearsome. . .
  它跟它们一样活着,一样动着,一样可怕!
  Then my mind grew calmer, my imagination melted into hazy5 drowsiness6, and I soon fell into an uneasy slumber7.
  之后,我的脑子安静下来,我蒙蒙咙陇地幻想着,不久也就沉沉地人睡了。
