The father of the house where Teddy is staying at the outbreak of war throws a white eiderdown out of a window in a rage. |
They went upstairs, undressed and climbed between the cool sheets covered with the heavy eiderdown. |
The searchers had ripped apart the mattress, the eiderdown, and the pillows. |

We would set out to warm her up by driving two miles in second gear with an old eiderdown over her bonnet. |
A couple of fancy shirts, several pair of dress trousers, and other garments were neatly spread out on the eiderdown coverlet. |
