of Eraclius and Petrus de S. Audemar, Theo- philus refers to a substance called "menesch," which seems to be a corruption of the Indian name of the root mnitsch ; and Neri gives a madder lake receipt in the L Arte Vetraria, book vii., chapter cxviii. It is hardly necessary to collect examples for its use as a dye, but, in passing, we may mention that some of the cloth from the Egyptian tombs, already referred to, is evidently dyed with madder, the colour being perfectly preserved. It is mention...ed in the statutes of Marseilles (1287), its cultivation was much encouraged by the Emperor Charles V. in Holland, and the curious regulations as to its use by the greater dyers only, show in how much esteem it was held. In my experiments on madder lakes, I have made use of the preparation known as alizarin. In conclusion, I would like to point out that, with the exception of madder, the lakes described are all very similar in tone of colour, I have described them as rose-coloured lakes, translating by this word the words roseli, roxita, roxeum, roxaceum, 273 18 MATERIALS OF PAINTER'S CRAFT roseo, rosa, and so on.
