The Chateau d'If has no cemetery, and they simply throw the dead into the sea, after fastening a thirty-six pound cannon-ball to their feet.

Some of the men suffered burst eardrums. At least one man was struck unconscious from the force of a cannonball against the iron.
有些士兵的耳膜都震坏了,至少有一个人被炮弹打在战舰的铁皮上爆炸所产生的声音震昏过去。
