English renderings
coral, tincture as colour bearing quality.

Meaning

Red coral appears as an object from which the narrator says a tincture can be removed. In this local example Tinctur concerns a colour-bearing or transformative quality associated with a material, unlike the sweet tincture of Christ’s merit in the sacred-history analogy. The shared word does not make the two recipients or agents identical. The coral example functions within the cross-kingdom argument; its operational method is not reproduced here.
