- The next morn broke off the coast of aleria ; all day they coasted , and in the evening saw fires lighted on land ; the position of these was no doubt a signal for landing , for a ship s lantern was hung up at the mast - head instead of the streamer , and they came to within a gunshot of the shore
他们整天沿着海岸航行，到了傍晚时分，岸上燃起了灯火。这火光大概是约定的暗号，一看到这火光，他们就知道可以靠岸了，因为有一盏信号灯不是挂在旗杆上而是挂在桅顶上，于是他们就向岸边靠近，驶到了大炮的射程以内。
