calix

I have cried 'Pater mi, si possibile est, transeat a me calix iste!'

The capsule is sometimes shorter and sometimes longer than the calix, on the same plant, in Andrés specimens.

The lurid colouring of the young leaves is recalled in the flower-stems and calix, and enhances the colour effect of the whole.

Instead of suak, the women used here the calix of a flower, called furai, for staining their teeth with a deep amber colour.
