The ebb was to fall early in the morning. I knew that if the wind held from the northwest and no interfering swell ran in f rom a distant storm the level of the sea should drop below the entrance to the pool. There had been sudden ominous showers in the night, with rain like handfuls of gravel flung on the roof. When I looked out into the early morning the sky was full of a gray dawn light but the sun had not yet risen. Water and air were pallid. Across the bay the moon was a luminous disc in the western sky, suspended above the dim line of distant shore — the full August moon, drawing the tide to the low, low levels of the threshold of the alien sea world. As I watched, a gull flew by, above the spruces. Its breast was rosy with the light of the unrisen sun. The day was, after all, to be fair.
根据推算,潮水将在清晨退下去。我知道,如果不刮西北风,远处的风暴不再掀起惊涛骇浪进行干扰,海平面就会落得比水潭的入口还低。夜里突然下了几场预示不 祥的阵 雨,一把把碎石般的雨点被抛到屋顶上。清晨我向外眺望,只见天空笼罩着灰蒙蒙的曙光,只是太阳还没有升起。水和空气一片暗淡。一轮明月挂在海湾对面的西天 上,月下灰暗的一线就是远方的海岸——8月的望月把海潮吸得很低,直到那与人世隔离的海的世界的门槛。在我观望的时候,一只海鸥飞过云杉。呼之欲出的太阳 把它的腹部映成粉色。天终于晴了。
