My bonnibell, my lady-bird, I have none but good tales to tell thee.

Let us come into the town, lady-bird, and choose a doll.

The lady-bird must just be passing through.

Sorry to find the lady-bird flown.

That handsome, perfumed lady-bird that used to come to see you....

And, puffing the cigarette smoke at a lady-bird on the shining table, he plunged into a reverie about the house.

Look thee, Mahound, though my mistress sent me to such a lady-bird as thou art, Master Oliver shall know on't.

Like all insects the aphis has its special insect enemies, among which the lady-bird ("lady-cow" in Worcestershire) is the most important.

But the ant has sense enough to keep the aphis for a supply of honey-dew instead of killing it as the lady-bird does.

And they could not understand at all why no swift depredating graces nor any habit of long soft hooting belonged to that lady-bird.

And they came running into the sitting room behind the store to show the lady-bird to Polly's father, who was there looking over his paper.

Somehow, you've given me the impression she's just one of these lady-birds.

These letters have been falling about like a shower of lady-birds.

And now, my lady-birds, who else shall we invite to the house party?

Eat, lady- bird,-nothinglike eating to kill time and banish care.

Now the lady-birds are also fond of the aphides, and eat them up by hundreds.
