Why, because she is an old gentlewoman and might keepe the house. Tho. Alas, Captaine, Mistris Vertue is poore and leane. Cap.
Communicating his idea to Wallerant Vaillant, a painter, they made several experiments, and at last invented a steel roller with projecting points, or teeth, like a file, which effectually produced the black ground; and which, being scraped away or diminished at pleasure, left the gradations of light.
