And this single, most distant and mountainous characteristic Color, receives
in the airabove it and in the earthy matter
before its feet
the showers of Gold, from above and below, it receives kisses of
gold, it is gold-rayed, gold-washed, gold-flowered, gold-burned in golden
wreaths of clouds, to exploded fireworks of gold-needled pine woods,
goldflowing streams of gold-blinded love of seas; and the gold-colored
kisses from the deeper goldcherryflamed and goldredfired to the brightest
gold-lightings of airs, run everywhere, gold-writing, goldyellowing,
gold-dying or gold-shining. And going from the more generic and typical to
the more particular and rare, the pink and blue widenings and flowerings,
give joy and pleasure to the Blue, the Silvers ennoble, the Golden and
redflaming are heroic, the emerald and pignut, acacia or lemon-colored
give forth poetry and the dark, ash-colored, brownish crossings make
gloomy the sky-Blue Sight.
