🔊 A SHIPWRECKED MAN, having been cast on shore, fell asleep after his struggle with the waves. When he awoke, he bitterly reproached the Sea for its treachery in enticing men with its smooth and smiling surface, and then, when they were well embarked, turning in fury upon them and sending both ship and sailors to destruction.

一个遇难者被浪涛冲上岸,一番搏斗后沉沉睡去。醒来时,他痛斥大海的奸诈,用那波平如镜、笑靥盈盈的表面诱人入彀,待船只顺利启航,便狂怒骤起,将船与水手一并吞没。
