It was early in the spring。 there had been a little frost in the night, and a light fog still hung over the woods and grasslands. I and the other young horses were feeding at the lower part of the field when we heard, quite in the distance, what sounded like the cry of dogs. The oldest of us young horses raised his head, pricked his ears, and said, “ There are the hunting dogs!” and immediately cantered off, followed by the rest of us to the upper part of the field, where we could look over the bushes and see several fields beyond. My mother and an old riding horse of our master’ s were also standing near, and seemed to know all about it. “ They have found a hare(野兔 ),” said my mother, “ and if they e this way we shall see the hunt.” And soon the dogs were all tearing down the field of young wheat next to ours. I never heard such a noise as they made. They did not bark, nor howl, nor whine, but kept on a “ yo! yo! yo! o!” at the top of their voices. After them came a number of men on horseback, some of them in green coats, all galloping as fast as they could. The old horse snorted and looked eagerly after them, and we young horses wanted to be galloping with them, but they were soon away into the fields lower down。 here it seemed as if they had e to a stand。 the dogs stopped barking, and ran about every way with their noses to the ground. “ They have lost the scent(臭迹 ),” said the old horse “ perhaps the hare will get off.” “ What hare?” I said. “ I don’ t know what hare。 likely enough it may be one of our own hares out of the woods。 any hare they can find will do for the dogs and men to run after,” and before long the dogs began their “ yo! yo! yo! o!” again, and back they came altogether at full speed, making straight for our grassland at the part where the high bank and fence overhang the stream. “ Now we shall see the hare,” said my mother。 and just then a hare wild with fright rushed by and made for the woods. On came the dogs。 they burst over the bank, leaped(跳跃 ) the stream, and came dashing across the field followed by the huntsmen. Six or eight men leaped their horses clean over, close upon the dogs. The hare tried to get through the fence。 it was too thick, and she turned sharp round to make for the road, but it was too late。 the dogs were upon her with their wild cries。 we heard one shriek, and that was the end of her. One of the huntsmen rode up and whipped off the dogs, who would soon have torn her to pieces. He held her up by the leg torn and bleeding and all the gentlemen seemed well pleased.
