Questioning the natives, Captain Dumont d'Urville also learned that after La Perouse's two ships had miscarried on the island's reefs, the count had built a smaller craft, only to go off and miscarry a second time. Where? Nobody knew.

杜蒙居维尔详细询问土人,知道拉?白鲁斯在岛附近暗礁上损失了他的两只船后,又造了一只较小的船,他乘新造的船出发,第二次又失踪了…在什么地方失踪呢?没有人知道。

The commander of the new Astrolabe then had a monument erected under a tuft of mangrove, in memory of the famous navigator and his companions. It was a simple quadrangular pyramid, set on a coral base, with no ironwork to tempt the natives' avarice.

这位指挥浑天仪号的船长于是在一株红树华盖下,建造了一座衣冠墓,纪念那位著名的航海家和他的同伴。家是一座简单的四角形金字塔,建筑在珊瑚石的基地上,上面没有竖立什么可以引起土人的贪心的铁架。

Then Dumont d'Urville tried to depart; but his crews were run down from the fevers raging on these unsanitary shores, and quite ill himself, he was unable to weigh anchor until March 17.

杜蒙?居维尔要离开这岛出发了;但他的船员受了海岛不良气候的影响,很多人患了热病,他本人也病得很厉害,一直到8月17日才拔锚动身。

Meanwhile, fearing that Dumont d'Urville wasn't abreast of Dillon's activities, the French government sent a sloop of war to Vanikoro, the Bayonnaise under Commander Legoarant de Tromelin, who had been stationed on the American west coast. Dropping anchor before Vanikoro a few months after the new Astrolabe's departure, the Bayonnaise didn't find any additional evidence but verified that the savages hadn't disturbed the memorial honoring the Count de La Perouse.

当时法国政府怕杜蒙?屠维尔不知道狄勇的工作结果,派出巴沿尼号小战舰到万尼科罗岛,战舰由列哥郎?德?土美林指挥,当时停在美洲西部海岸。巴沿尼号在浑天仪号离开了几个月后,开到了万尼科罗岛面前,并没有找到什么新的材料,仅仅看见土人对于拉?白鲁斯的墓没有破坏。

This is the substance of the account I gave Captain Nemo.

上面就是我给尼摩船长说的关于这件事的材料。

"So," he said to me, "the castaways built a third ship on Vanikoro Island, and to this day, nobody knows where it went and perished?"

“那么,"他对我说,“在万尼科罗岛失事的遇难人所建造的第三只船,究竟在什么地方遇难沉没了,人们还是不知道吗?"

"Nobody knows."

“人们还是不知道。”
