Some things hadn't changed since Susan had set out for the Coos; she had still been able to feel her aunt's eyes brushing across her face and down her body, like little whisk-brooms with sharp bristles.
И тут выяснилось, что далеко не все изменилось с тех пор, как она отправилась на Коос. Сюзан по-прежнему чувствовала взгляд тетушки, пробегающий по лицу и телу, словно сороконожка с остренькими коготками.

As Gray and Rachel ran, a fountain of flames chased them, sputtering up after them, whisking around the bend in the tower stairs:
Вслед Рейчел и Грею то и дело устремлялись фонтаны огня, танцуя возле их ног, облизывая изгибы лестницы, набрасывая на каменные стены пелерину копоти.

Thorpe only lashed his horse into a brisker trot; the Tilneys, who had soon ceased to look after her, were in a moment out of sight round the corner of Laura Place, and in another moment she was herself whisked into the marketplace.
Торп лишь подхлестнул лошадь, чтобы она бежала быстрее. Брат и сестра Тилни скоро перестали на них смотреть и через минуту скрылись за углом Лора-плейс, а в следующее мгновение она сама перенеслась на Рыночную площадь.

Inside the towers and perhaps in some of the smaller ducts, things were turning with loud thrumming and whisking noises, perhaps huge fan blades.
Внутри башен, а может, и в каких-то трубопроводах что-то шумно поворачивалось, возможно, лопасти большущих вентиляторов.
