Bare-headed, in old fur-capes, they bestride the most spirited nags, and scurry along with merry cries and hooting and ringing laughter, swinging their arms and legs, and leaping into the air.
Сидя без шапок и в старых полушубках на самых бойких клячонках, мчатся они с веселым гиканьем и криком, болтая руками и ногами, высоко подпрыгивают, звонко хохочут.
