Mr. McGregor was on his hands and knees planting out young cabbages, but he jumped up and ran after Peter, waving a rake and calling out, ‘Stop thief!’
The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter
ミスター・マクレガーは ピーターを おいかけた。

Peter was most dreadfully frightened; he rushed all over the garden, for he had forgotten the way back to the gate.
ピーターは にわを はしりまわった。
- predicate:
- 走りまわる
- 背筋が凍る（せすじがこおる, freeze with fear / be chilled）
The Japanese expression “せすじがこおる” describes a sudden, intense feeling of fear, shock, or dread that makes a person’s spine feel cold. It is often used when someone experiences a terrifying moment, hears a horrifying story, or faces a situation that sends chills down their back.
He lost one of his shoes among the cabbages, and the other shoe amongst the potatoes.
かれは くつを なくした。

After losing them, he ran on four legs and went faster, so that I think he might have got away altogether if he had not unfortunately run into a gooseberry net, and got caught by the large buttons on his jacket.

Mr. McGregor came up with a sieve, which he intended to pop upon the top of Peter; but Peter wriggled out just in time, leaving his jacket behind him.
