Not long afterwards he was standing in the church, and with his forehead leaning on somebody's back, listened to the singing of the choir.
Немного погодя он уже стоял в церкви и, положив лоб на чью-то спину, пахнувшую коноплей, слушал, как пели на клиросе.

If you adopt the device of leaning the body forwards and head downwards the feet will by themselves leave the ground and you can stretch them quite easily.
Если вы наклоните тело вперед, а голову вниз, то ноги сами оторвутся от земли, и вы без труда сможете их вытянуть.

'Now,' said Ralph, leaning forward, and placing his hand on Squeers's arm, 'hear the design which I have conceived, and which I must - I say, must, if I can ripen it - have carried into execution.
