    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.

Countless the shades which sep'rate mind from mind;
No general object read more

Countless the various species of mankind,
Countless the shades which sep'rate mind from mind;

Each has his will, and each pursues his own.
