Levin was not so lucky: he fired at the first snipe too near, and missed; he followed it with his gun when it had already risen, but at that instant another rose just at his feet and diverted his attention, and he missed again.
Disparó sobre la primera chocha demasiado cerca y erró el tiro. La encajonó cuando volaba más alta, pero en aquel momento otra chocha saltó a sus pies y Levin se distrajo y erró nuevamente el tiro.
