...it is an obvious deduction, that the transparent parts of bodies, according to their several series, reflect rays of one colour and transmit those of another ; on the same account that thin plates, or bubbles, reflect or transmit those rays ; and this Newton supposed to... | |

Concluding, from a series of experiments, that the transparent parts of bodies, according to their several sizes, reflect rays of one colour, and transmit those of another, he hence observes, that when vapours are first raised, they are divided into parts too small to cause... | |
