5. Yellow and chesnut harmonise *, but wanting by analogy. 



6. Yellow and purple harmonise, as in the heartsease.

up well at night.

 by analogy. 



11. Yellow and orange harmonise by analogy, but wanting by ana- 



logy. They would be improved by blue and black.

Sect. XVII. Blue, A 1, 2, 3 ; B 1, 2, 6 ; C 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ; and 

 F 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.)

Canary is not sufficiently powerful to combine with most colours, and 

 generally offends, in combinations, against the rule of having 

 the tones of equal intensity, (p. 99, Sect. VI.) 



1 . Canary and blue harmonise, but are rather cold ; and the canary 



overpowered by the blue. 



2. Canary and yellow wanting by analogy. 



3. Canary and crimson harmonise, but the canary overpowered by 



the crimson ; cerise would be rather better. 



4. Canary and green poor. The canary is overpowered, and takes 



a greenish hue. 



* Chesnut colour is, from custom, considered lighter than that of the Spanish 

 chesnut fruit, and I therefore apply it according to common acceptation. Use 

 horsechesnut for the richest colour of this fruit.
