 23  1, 6 |           on more pressure." ~Ned Land went to his post. The fires
 24  1, 6 |          vibrated through me. Ned Land kept his post, harpoon in

 54  1, 10|       your word of honour, Master Land," answered the commander,
 55  1, 10|        You are going to visit the land of marvels." ~These words

110  1, 22|           by these words from Ned Land: ~"Hallo! breakfast is ready." ~
111  1, 22|          Unfortunately," said Ned Land, "they have only given us

119  2, 2 |      fifty sharks!" exclaimed Ned Land. ~"Did I say sharks?" said
120  2, 2 |         such a calling?" said Ned Land, "the swallowing of some

122  2, 3 |      looked on the side where the land lay, and saw nothing but

127  2, 3 |          and, more than that, Ned Land was brandishing an enormous
128  2, 3 |      instinct of destruction. Ned Land, faithful to his instinct,
129  2, 3 |     thought, harpoon in hand, Ned Land rushed towards the shark
130  2, 3 |           indescribable fury. Ned Land had not missed his aim.
131  2, 3 |       overthrew Conseil. ~But Ned Land had disentangled the Captain,
132  2, 3 |     Canadian. ~"Thank you, Master Land," said he. ~"It was in revenge,
133  2, 3 |    revenge, Captain," replied Ned Land. "I owed you that." ~A ghastly

152  2, 6 |        Then you are wrong, Master Land," I continued; "this low
153  2, 6 |          profit." ~"Oh!" said Ned Land, "and where shall we be
154  2, 6 |           or as an express on the land. It does not fear frequented
155  2, 6 |         must profit by it.'" ~Ned Land's logic pressed me hard,
156  2, 6 |           shall see," replied Ned Land, shaking his head determinedly. ~"
157  2, 6 |      determinedly. ~"And now, Ned Land," I added, "let us stop
158  2, 6 |     Captain Nemo, deprived of all land communications, who could
159  2, 6 |          lives more in it than on land, going continually from

164  2, 8 |          once, accompanied by Ned Land and Conseil. At a distance
165  2, 8 |      would have been folly." ~Ned Land did not answer; his compressed
166  2, 8 |          act with security." ~Ned Land still looked at me fixedly;
167  2, 8 |       opportunity," continued Ned Land, "and the opportunity has
168  2, 8 |           I have said to him? Ned Land was perfectly right. There
169  2, 8 |        might take us far from all land. ~At that moment a rather

172  2, 8 |       suddenly inform me that Ned Land had been surprised in his
173  2, 8 |          and there waited for Ned Land's signal. ~At that moment
174  2, 8 |         felt inclined to join Ned Land and beg of him to put off
175  2, 9 |         towards the platform. Ned Land had preceded me. No more
176  2, 9 |          had preceded me. No more land in sight. Nothing but an
177  2, 9 |        all that fog stretched the land he so longed for. ~At noon
178  2, 9 |         among the glaciers on the land; now I ventured on the unsteady
179  2, 10|          under the waves. But Ned Land thought of nothing but finding

182  2, 10|           Very well," replied Ned Land; "I accept the explanation,

186  2, 11|          seas of the Pacific. Ned Land had cause for fear. In these
187  2, 12|          s temerity justified Ned Land's fears. For some time past
188  2, 12|            looking fixedly at Ned Land, whose meaning was easy

197  2, 12|         under water. Conseil, Ned Land, and I took our places before
198  2, 12|        their formidable eyes. Ned Land could not contain himself;
199  2, 12|         joined us. ~"Well, Master Land?" said he. ~"Well, sir,"
200  2, 12|            looking fixedly at Ned Land. ~I feared he would commit

204  2, 14|           considerable stretch of land, perhaps a continent, for
205  2, 14|     limits. The existence of this land seemed to give some colour
206  2, 14|       morning. I had not seen Ned Land. Doubtless the Canadian

210  2, 14|       point settled, I sought Ned Land. I wanted to take him with

212  2, 15|           leaving the saloon, Ned Land and Conseil entered. ~"What
213  2, 15|      shall we find him?" said Ned Land. ~"Follow me," said I, to
214  2, 15|   confound it! Yes," answered Ned Land, "it is superb! I am mad
215  2, 15|       last?" ~"Yes," repeated Ned Land, "provided we do get out
216  2, 16|           ice, and among them Ned Land, easily known by his stature.
217  2, 16|         two hours' hard work, Ned Land came in exhausted. He and
218  2, 17|       enough for everybody." ~Ned Land did not speak, but he opened
219  2, 17|               No doubt," said Ned Land; "but it remains to be seen
220  2, 17|           before noon, we sighted land to the west. It was Terra

223  2, 18|         quite practicable, if Ned Land had been able to take possession
224  2, 18|       17,000 leagues; and, as Ned Land said, there was no reason
225  2, 18|       wished to see daylight. The land nearest us was the archipelago
226  2, 18|           eleven o'clock when Ned Land drew my attention to a formidable
227  2, 18|      question." ~"Good!" said Ned Land, bursting out laughing. ~"
228  2, 18|           is the fact?" asked Ned Land. ~"This is it. In 1861,
229  2, 18|          I looked at Conseil. Ned Land hurried to the window. ~"
230  2, 18|          I will accept it, Master Land." ~"We will follow you,"
231  2, 18|          I took two hatchets; Ned Land seized a harpoon. The Nautilus
232  2, 18|       like the hydra's heads. Ned Land's harpoon, at each stroke,
233  2, 18|      cuttlefish was open over Ned Land. The unhappy man would be
234  2, 19|          certain destruction. Ned Land owned this himself. He fretted,
235  2, 19|          it. This Nemo is leaving land and going up to the north.
