'The dubbing of Green Dog is the same as Green 

 King, feather a little lighter, with gold-colour spate and 

 pea-green thread at equal distances on the body of the 

 hook or fly. The Purple, or "Purpy," a thirty-second 

 cousin of the Purple King, has a hackle somewhat redder 

 than that of his progenitor ; dubbing, dark blue and stone 

 red, with gold spate and purple thread on body of fly at 

 equal distances.'
