把这一句，留给此刻的你

On embarking to return we could perceive no sign of One Tree Island; and as we swept down towards the sea the leafy top of a tree seen in the clear water under the boat was the only evidence of its existence; though a few hours ago it had formed so prominent an object.

当我们踏上返回的船时，我们没有看到任何一个树岛的迹象;当我们向大海冲去的时候，船下清澈的水面上有一棵枝繁叶茂的树梢，这是它存在的唯一证据;虽然几个小时以前它已经形成了一个如此突出的物体。
