The hens were clucking to their downy chicks just out of the egg.

Fluffy, tell Downy the little story I told you the other day, about the sunbeam.

I must stay in the house till dinner, and I could read to Downy.

Well, Downy boy, I have never been in the sun, so I really cannot tell you.

Downy paused a moment and looked at his uncle in astonishment.

The veil is absent, or, if present, it is downy and adherent to the margin of the cap.

Atrotomentosus is from ater, black, and tomentum, woolly or downy.

Then, remembering, he sprang from the downy bed to his feet.

I return to my study and in about fifteen minutes Downy is back at work.

Well, whatever the case, I was sleeping as though on downy beds of ease.
