Symzonia: Voyage of Discovery
·
Captain Adam Seaborn
56
We
continued
running
due
north,
internal,
three
day,
when
the
compass
became
pretty
regular;
but
instead
of
the
N.
and
S.
points
corresponding
to
the
N.
and
S.
points
on
the
external
world,
as
Capt.
Symmes
supposed
it
would
do,
the
needle
turned
fairly
end
for
end;
the
south
end
pointing
directly
into
the
globe
towards
the
north
pole,
with
some
variation
from
the
true
north.
But
of
this
matter,
I
shall
say
very
little,
for
sundry
important
reasons,
and
especially
because
I
intend
to
publish
my
theory
of
longitude
in
due
season,
and
give
the
courses
and
bearings,
corrected
to
true
north
and
south,
as
understood
by
the
externals.
On
the
28th
of
November,
1817,
we
discovered
land,
just
at
sunset,
and
immediately
hove
to,
to
keep
a
good
offing
until
day-light.
I
walked
the
deck
all
night,
and
was
very
impatient
for
the
morning
of
that
day
which
was
to
disclose
to
me
the
wonders
of
the
internal
world,
and
probably
to
decide
the
question
whether
it
was
or
was
not
inhabited
by
rational
beings.
