The day passed thus; he scarcely tasted food, but walked round and round the cell like a wild beast in its cage. One thought in particular tormented him: namely, that during his journey hither he had sat so still, whereas he might, a dozen times, have plunged into the sea, and, thanks to his powers of swimming, for which he was famous, have gained the shore, concealed himself until the arrival of a Genoese or Spanish vessel, escaped to Spain or Italy, where Merc d s and his father could have joined him. He had no fears as to how he should live--good seamen are welcome everywhere. He spoke Italian like a Tuscan, and Spanish like a Castilian; he would have been free, and happy with Merc d s and his father, whereas he was now confined in the Chateau d'If, that impregnable fortress, ignorant of the future destiny of his father and Merc d s; and all this because he had trusted to Villefort's promise.

这一天就这样过去了，他没吃一点食物，只是在斗室里走来走去，象一只被困在笼子里的野兽似的，最使他苦恼的是，在这次被押送的途中，他竟这样的平静和呆笨，他本来这次跳海也是成功的，他的游泳技术是素来有名的，他可以游到岸边躲起来，等到热那亚船或西班牙船来的时候，逃到西班牙或意大利去，美塞苔丝和他的父亲可以到那儿去找我团聚，他跟本用不着担心以后的生活，因为他是一个好海员是到处都受人欢迎的，他讲起意大利语来就象托斯卡人一样［意大利的一种民族。

Ten thousand years later, the Earth has become a fine spring day and long, lush plants, beasts jubilant planet, birds sang in the branches of bees collecting nectar in the flowers between the leisurely, cattle and sheep run freely in the grass, flowers in the forest quietly in bloom, monkeys on the branches to climb ... joy ... everything kind of harmony and tranquility, nature has restored the original appearance, the only missing is the people.

一万年以后，地球又长成了一座鸟语花香、植物繁茂、百兽欢腾的星球，鸟儿在树梢上放声歌唱，蜜蜂在花丛间悠然采蜜，牛羊在草地上自由奔跑，鲜花在森林中悄然绽放，猴子在树枝上欢悦地攀援……一切的一切都那样的祥和与宁静，大自然又恢复了本来的面貌，唯一缺少的就是人。

I could have caught up with you.

我本来可以来和你们聚会的。
