    He decried that any would
    add another hue
    unto the rainbow
    yet we would ope to
    saffron and jade
    and pink and rose
    and olive and tan
    scarlet and indigos
    **
    *the quote is from Shakespeare's King John.

And pleased read more

And pleased with novelty, might be indulged.
