But woe to him who having squeezed lets go to get the necessary forceps; for the larva leaps back within, promptly dies and forms an abscess.

It darted hither and thither like a larva in an aquarium, mingled with shadows, with doubts, with desires, with expedients, with dreams of one knows not what Caesarian socialism, like a Hydra dimly visible in a transparency of chaos.

The newly hatched boll worm walks like a geometrical larva or looper, a measuring worm as it was called.

It was called a zoea; but you can call it a Crab caterpillar or larva.
