Hello, I am translating a text but I cannot fully understand the folllowing idea:
I knocked straight into the branches, lost my grip and fell right off the horse, being lucky to escape it treading on me as I lay on the pathway.
my doubt is: Is being lucky referring to the horse or to the man? Who is lucky to escape? My first attemp was to think that the horse was lucky enough to escape.
Thank you!
