Note 221 — Chapter VI
Hugh J. C. Beavan translation
“Sole colorari homines non dubium, eosque autem ut nigrescant non constat.” Albinus, De Sede et Causa Coloris Æthiopum, p. 12. He also says, still speaking of Negroes, that they are coloured, “quod suum parentes colorem in liberos propagant ...; æthiops fœmina si cum mare æthiope rem habuerit, æthiopem, ni quid forte natura ludat, gignit; alba si cum albo, album.”—Ibidem, p. 10. It is in some manner the permanence of a declared type.
