    - under the pressure of sth.;
    - bowing to sth.;
    - [in limited contexts] under duress.
         ♦ Очень часто раненое животное, заслышав шорох, бросается на выстрел охотника, бежит вперёд, назад и само ускоряет свой конец. То же самое делал Наполеон под давлением всего своего войска (Толстой 7). Very often a wounded animal, hearing a rustle, rushes straight at the hunter's gun, runs forward and back again, and hastens its own end. Napoleon, under pressure from his whole army, did the same thing (7b)
