Gloss (gls), n. [Cf. Icel. glossi a blaze, glys finery, MHG. glosen to
glow, G. glosten to glimmer; perh. akin to E. glass.] 1. Brightness or
luster of a body proceeding from a smooth surface; polish; as, the
gloss of silk; cloth is calendered to give it a gloss.
It is no part . . . to set on the face of this cause any fairer
gloss than the naked truth doth afford.
