S. C. Hands for Simon Cantarino, called of Pefaro, painter
and engraver.

The SCABIOUS, to paint. There are two forts of this plant,
red and purple.

The leaves of the red are to be painted with Indian lake and
a little white, and coloured and finimed with lake only, in the
middle, where there is a large pod or bud, which contains the
feed ; but with an addition of a little ultramarine or indigo, to
make it a little darker.

Then make little longifh fpots of white for the upper part, at
a pretty good diffance from each other; but be lure to make
them ftronger in the lights, and weaker in the fhades.

For the purple, cover them with a very pale purple ; as well
on the leaves as on the pod in the middle, fhading both with the
fame colour of a deeper telnt; and, inftead of ufing fmall white
flrokes for the feed, make them purple, and make a round about
each, and that all over the pod.

Let the green be veruiter and mafticote, fhaded with iris green.

nous offence ; open-mouthed, that he occafions fcandal, not
only in deeds, but in words; the cards expofed to every one's
view, is a manifeft fcandal, in an old man efpecially, who fhould
not give ill examples to youth.

SCARLET, may be reprefented on a plane with minium, a
little mixed with vermilion ; but, if you have occafion to paint a
flower of a fcarlet colour on a print, let your lights, as well as
ihades, be covered thin with minium, and the fhaded parts glazed
with carmine, which will produce an admirable Scarlet; fuch as
