7 the light fantastic
танец; движения в танце (иногда употр. шутл.) [выражение из стихотворения Дж. Мильтона:(‘L'Allegro’, 1632)]When I was your age I twirled the light fantastic with the best. (J. Galsworthy, ‘The Dark Flower’, part I, ch. VII) — В вашем возрасте и я танцевал не хуже прочих, "кружился, чуть земли касаясь стопами, легкими как сон"
She had given the world half a dozen volumes of verse, published under Latin titles... all of the graver kind, for her muse, disinclined to skip on a light, fantastic toe, trod a somewhat solemn measure. (W. S. Maugham, ‘Complete Short Stories’, ‘The Creative Impulse’) — Миссис Альберт Форрестер подарила миру полдюжины сборников стихотворений с латинскими названиями... и очень серьезных, ибо ее муза, не склонная являться к ней "стопой воздушной, точно в танце", шествовала несколько тяжеловатой поступью.
...he was raucously insisting that Mrs. Candy dance with him what he not very precisely called "the light fantastic". (S. Lewis, ‘It Can't Happen Here’, ch. 25) —...он хриплым басом упрашивал миссис Кэнди протанцевать с ним какой-то танец, который он довольно неопределенно называл "легкой фантазией"
