Suddenly, we went over the edge. I thought my life was over.

突然,我们越过边缘。我想我没命了。
But moment after moment passed, and I was still safe.
但时间一点点过去,而我仍安然无恙。
The boat was on the inside of the huge whirlpool and we were going round in circles at great speed.
船在巨大的漩涡里面,而我们在漩涡里高速旋转。
I saw clearly that there were other objects in the whirlpool - trees and barrels.
我清楚地看到漩涡里有其他物体-大树和桶。
I noticed that the heavier objects went down more quickly than the smaller, lighter ones.
我注意到较重的物体比较小、较轻的物体下落要快。
So I tied myself to a barrel to help me float.
所以,我把自己绑在一个桶上帮我飘浮。
I tried to make my brother understand, but he was terrified and stayed in the heavy boat.
我努力使我哥哥明白这一点,但他十分恐惧,呆坐在沉重的木船里。
Without waiting, I dived into the sea to try and escape.
没有再等,我跳进海里逃生。
As you can see, I did escape.
如你所见,我真地逃生了。
I will bring my story quickly to a conclusion.
我的故事很快就结束了。
Some time after I left the boat, with my brother in it, it sank into the bottom of the whirlpool.
我离开以后的某个时间,船载着我哥哥沉到漩涡的底部。
Soon afterwards, the whirlpool became less violent.
后来不久,漩涡没那么猛烈了。
Then the sky was clear, the wind calmer and the moon was shining.
接着,天空晴朗,风小了,月亮也出来了。
I was still tied to the barrel and the waves soon carried me to an area where the other fishermen were.
我还绑着桶,一会儿,浪把我带到一个有很多渔夫的地方。
In the end, a boat picked me up. I was very tired.
最后,一条船把我救了。我疲惫不堪。
The fishermen were my old friends, but they were unable to recognise me.
这些渔民是我的老朋友,但他们认不出我了。
When I told them my story, they did not believe it.
我跟他们讲我的故事是,他们不相信我。
Now I have told you, and I cannot expect you to believe me more than the fishermen did.
现在我已经告诉你了,而我也不期望你能比那些渔民相信我。
(Adapted from A Descent into the Maelstrom by Edgar Allan Poe)
(根据埃德加·爱伦·坡的《卷入大漩涡》改编)
