 3 XVI   |          we are only thirty-five leagues from it; and during thaws
 4 XIX   |  fatiguing walk, we had gone two leagues south, but scarcely a quarter

10 XXIV  |          and had travelled fifty leagues away from Snæfell. Although

14 XXV   |          Here we are eighty-five leagues south-east of Snæfell, and
15 XXV   |        are at a depth of sixteen leagues.”~“Sixteen leagues?” I cried.~“
16 XXV   |       sixteen leagues.”~“Sixteen leagues?” I cried.~“No doubt.”~“
17 XXV   |       the surface is about 1,583 leagues; let us say in round numbers
18 XXV   |       say in round numbers 1,600 leagues, or 4,800 miles. Out of
19 XXV   |          800 miles. Out of 1,600 leagues we have gone twelve!”~“So
20 XXV   |     these twelve at a cost of 85 leagues diagonally?”~“Exactly so.”~“
21 XXV   |      days?”~“Yes.”~“Now, sixteen leagues are the hundredth part of
22 XXV   |        vertical depth of sixteen leagues can be attained only by
23 XXVI  |        and a half, or nearly two leagues. These were perilous descents,
