Nature had got him in its net, and like an unhappy fish he turned and swam at the meshes, here and there, found no hole, no breaking point.

Nor have there been wanting learned exegetists who have opined that the whale mentioned in the book of Jonah merely meant a life-preserver-an inflated bag of wind-which the endangered prophet swam to, and so was saved from a watery doom.
Не было также недостатка в ученых экзегетиках, полагавших, что кит, упоминаемый в книге Ионы, это всего лишь спасательный баллон, надутый воздухом мешок, к которому в минуту смертельной опасности подплыл пророк и тем избег гибели в морской пучине.
