OF LIGHT AND LUSTRE.

What is the difference between light and the lustre which is seen on

the polished surface of opaque bodies?

The lights which are produced from the polished surface of opaque

bodies will be stationary on stationary objects even if the eye on

which they strike moves. But reflected lights will, on those same

objects, appear in as many different places on the surface as

different positions are taken by the eye.
