GR translation: seized out of the last ruffling of a great sigh

[Mike Weaver]

I'd say seized as in a kind of fit, sudden transformation of mental 
state, and yes the sigh is from the horse. Ruffling is a great way to 
describe the sound horses make when they make a loud outbreath - which I 
cannot reproduce onomatapoeically ( flbflbflbdluuub?).
