and they pulled him unmercifully from side to side in order to make him open his mouth.
把他从这边推到那边，要逼他把嘴张开。
All was of no use. The Marionette's lips might have been nailed together. They would not open.

Fancy his surprise when he saw that it was not a hand, but a cat's paw.

His pursuers were after him at once, like two dogs chasing a hare.
那两名追捕者立马紧紧跟着他，就像两只狗追一只野兔。
