foul; to spot; as, to stain the hand with dye; armor
stained with blood.
[1913 Webster]
2. To color, as wood, glass, paper, cloth, or the like, by
processes affecting, chemically or otherwise, the material
itself; to tinge with a color or colors combining with, or
penetrating, the substance; to dye; as, to stain wood with

Of innocence, of faith, of purity,
Our wonted ornaments now soiled and stained.

4. To cause to seem inferior or soiled by comparison.
[1913 Webster]
She stains the ripest virgins of her age. --Beau. &
Fl.
[1913 Webster]

--Spenser.
[1913 Webster]
Stained glass, glass colored or stained by certain metallic
pigments fused into its substance, -- often used for
making ornamental windows.
[1913 Webster]
Syn: To paint; dye; blot; soil; sully; discolor; disgrace;
taint.
Usage: Paint, Stain, Dye. These denote three different
processes; the first mechanical, the other two,
chiefly chemical. To paint a thing is to spread a coat
of coloring matter over it; to stain or dye a thing is
to impart color to its substance. To stain is said
chiefly of solids, as wood, glass, paper; to dye, of
fibrous substances, textile fabrics, etc.; the one,
commonly, a simple process, as applying a wash; the
other more complex, as fixing colors by mordants.
