Here are some of Verne's words (translated into English) that describe the scene: "It was the open sea, whose waves were still dashing with tremendous violence! ... The vast liquid plain, lashed without mercy by the storm, appeared as if covered with herds of furious chargers, whose white and disheveled crests were streaming in the wind. ... The voyagers, clinging to the [balloon's] net, were still too heavy for it, and soon, half plunged into the sea, they were beaten by the furious waves." | |

| Monaco | 1105 (Mi1311) | 1978 | Scene from Jules Verne's novel Les enfants du capitaine Grant (In Search of the Castaways) -- Lady Helena and Mary Grant and the sailing ship Macquarie in a violent ocean storm near the New Zealand coast. Here are some of Verne's words (translated into English) that describe the scene: "But neither Lady Helena nor Mary Grant uttered a word of complaint, though the continuous rain obliged them to stay below, where the want of air and the violence of the motion were painfully felt. They often braved the weather, and went on the poop till driven down again by the force of a sudden squall. ... Two hours passed; the sea was rising. The Macquarie was struck so violently that it seemed as if her keel had touched the rocks. ... By and by the returning waves would break over the deck in great masses. The boat was washed out of the davits by the force of the water. ... there was a danger of sinking by the bow, for the deck was filled at every lurch, and the sheet of water not being able to escape quickly by the scuppers, might submerge the ship." | |
