The Marionette went, picked up his cap--but instead of putting it on his head, he stuck it between his teeth and then raced toward the sea. He went like a bullet out of a gun. The Carabineers, judging that it would be very difficult to catch him, sent a large Mastiff after him, one that had won first prize in all the dog races. Pinocchio ran fast and the Dog ran faster. At so much noise, the people hung out of the windows or gathered in the street, anxious to see the end of the contest. 提線木偶去撿起了他的帽子——但他沒有將它戴在頭上，而是用牙齒咬住它就朝大海狂奔而去，就像出了膛的子彈一樣。那兩個卡賓槍手，覺著要抓住他將非常困難，就派出一頭獒犬去追趕他，那是一頭在所有犬類比賽中都贏得了第一名的獒犬。匹諾曹跑得飛快，這頭犬跑得更快。有這么大的動靜，人們要么從窗戶探出身來，要么聚集在街道上，焦慮地注視著這場角逐的結(jié)果。
