Baize

A mid-17th century English ditty (a short, simple popular song)—much quoted in histories of ale and beer brewing in England—refers to 1525 as the year:
Hops, heresies, bays, and beer;
Came into England all in one year. Wiki on Baize





A loose association presents itself between the emerald color in the wizard of OZ and the prop of the curtain in that same movie. Baize is used for games of chance. Servants doors were covered with this wool for sound proofing. Altars are also covered with the same material. (Jane Austin's World blog)I sense a connection between this curtain of the temple as a veil and the revealing aspects of the concept of Aletheia
