Quotation

Of Red.
Red, from the old Saxon Rud, […] in high Dutch it is called Rot, in low Dutch Root, without doubt from the Greeke ἔρυθρος, which is the same, in French Rouge, in Italian Rubro, from the Latine Ruber […], from the rinds or seeds (as Scaliger saith) of a Pomegranate, which are of this colour. In Spanish it is called Vermeio, of Minium which is Vermilion.

The sorts of Red are these.
Vermilion.
Synaper lake.
Synaper tops.
Red Lead.
Roset.
Turnsoile.
Browne of Spaine.
Bole Armoniack.
