| 1. | I was pretty far down on the low , sandy spit that encloses the anchorage to the east , and is joined at half - water to skeleton island ; and now , as i rose to my feet , i saw , some distance further down the spit , and rising from among low bushes , an isolated rock , pretty high , and peculiarly white in colour
眼下我所处的地方是向东环抱锚地伸入海中相当远的一个沙尖嘴，它半没人水中与骷髅岛相连。现在，当我起身的时候，我看到在沙尖嘴下面更远的地方矗立着一堵孤零零的岩壁，它位于低矮的灌木丛中，相当高，颜色特别自。 |
