Look here, my trousers have hardly anything to hand on!" said the old man, omitting his stroke and only swinging his flail in the air so as not to get out of time.
Вот у меня так портки не держатся, - проговорил старик, пропуская свой удар и только, чтобы не потерять такту, переворачивая в воздухе цепинкой.

I observed, here and there, many in the habit of servants, with a blown bladder, fastened like a flail to the end of a stick, which they carried in their hands.
Я заметил поодаль множество людей в одежде слуг с наполненными воздухом пузырями, прикрепленными наподобие бичей к концам коротких палок, которые они держали в руках.

He levered me up and almost threw me, but I moved quicker, whipping my right arm at his head and catching him with the flailing free end of Murphy's handcuffs, breaking his motion.
Он снова вздернул меня вверх и почти успел бросить через перила, но я двигался быстрее, ударив правой рукой в лицо и перехватив его движение продолжавшим болтаться у меня на запястье наручником.

We also play smothers, and that's fun too: you stuff a pillow in someone's face and smother him, and he flails and splutters and when he gets away, he's all red and sweaty, and his hair's sticking out like a harpy's.
А еще мы в удушилочку играем, и тоже занимательно: подушкой на личико навалишься и душишь, а тот то, другой, брыкается, вырывается, а вырвется – весь такой красный, вспотевши, и волоса врозь, как у гарпии.
