Ex quo clarissime apparet, lumina variorum colorum varia esset
refrangibilitate : idque eo ordine, ut color ruber omnium minime
refrangibilis sit, reliqui autem colores, aureus, flavus, viridis,
cruleus, indicus, violaceus, gradatim & ex ordine magis
magisque refrangibiles.

A careful reading of Newtons work indicates that the color he
called indigo, we would normally call blue; his blue is then what we
would name blue-green or cyan.
