They are dry, systematic, and uncoloured by partisanship or passion. Such statements are valuable in themselves, and particularly when read as a pendant to the history of Tacitus, which they often confirm, often correct, and always illustrate.
Not a heaven with cherubim surrounds you then, but a kind of vacant, leaden, cold hell. One day it will again cease to be opaque, this coloured glass; now, may it not become at once translucent and uncoloured? Painting no pictures more for us, but only the everlasting azure itself. That will be a right glorious consummation." If it were only the painting pictures! but we act the painted scenes.
The neighbours of the modern preacher of duty are either the few persons with whom each of us is brought into actual and palpable contact, or else the whole multitude of dwellers on the earth, a conception that for many ages to come will remain with the majority of men and women too vague to exert an energetic and concentrating influence upon action, and will lead them no further than an uncoloured and nerveless cosmopolitanism.
He is particular to a shade about clothes, and has a nice taste in hats. One wonders how he acquired it. His patriotic proclivity, his hostility to national costumes other than English, his preference for uncoloured complexions this one may understand; but his aesthetic instinct is a problem for Weismann.
You take him out and squeeze him, and he returns the stream uncoloured. He is a sort of Half Hours with the Best Authors, bound in man's skin; he is intellectually impotent, he never begot an idea." But he could be as generous in praise as savage in condemnation, and his occasional lapses into tenderness of mood were very sweet and touching.
Or hear how Milton makes his Adam and Eve praise God in the morning, 'Ye mists and exhalations that now rise From hill or streaming lake, dusky or gray, Till the sun paint your fleecy skirts with gold, In honour to the world's great Author rise, Whether to deck with clouds the uncoloured sky, Or wet the thirsty earth with falling showers, Rising or falling still advance his praise.
An objection to vegetable cooking fats, often cited by cooks, is their hardness, which makes them difficult to use for pastry. But Nutter is as soft as ordinary butter. The nut table butters are also very good, especially the uncoloured varieties labelled "Wallaceite." National Anti-Vaccination League. At first sight it may not seem that anti-vaccination has anything in common with Food Reform.
Morley, having missed the midnight train by two minutes, should have registered at the hotel certainly not later than ten minutes past midnight. "I have it," came the clerk's voice. "Mr. Henry Morley, of Washington, D. C., registered here at five minutes past two this morning." Bristow was astonished, but his voice was uncoloured by surprise when he inquired: "Are you sure of that?"
The colouring of the picture, too, is jewel-like and lovely, but the uncoloured drawing is itself full of charm. The grace of line, which was to distinguish all the works of his mature years, is already manifest in this effort of his boyhood.
Having in this way found the clue to the true genesis of the spectrum, Goethe could not fail to notice that it called for another a 'negative' spectrum, its polar opposite to make the half into a whole. The spectral phenomenon now begins at one side with light blue and passes into indigo and violet, with uncoloured darkness in the centre.
