[...]
- Yeah. Yeah, that's right. I'm fond of birds. I like looking after them.
- Where did she come from, did you say?
- From Canada. That's a land far, far across the seas. Beautiful daughter of England.
- She's quite a young bird. No more than a year old, I'd say.
- A bitter reception for a visiting princess.
- Of course she is. A princess among birds.
- We'll call her La Princesse Perdue, the lost princess.
- In a few days, she'll be feeling much better, won't you, princess?
- Gee, watch her eat up this grain I've got for her.
- Why, the poor princess must be nearly starving.
