Samuel Johnson's Dictionary
Filmyadjective
Composed of thin membranes or pellicles.
Etymology: from film.
So the false spider, when her nets are spread,
Deep ambush’d in her silent den does lie;
And feels, far off, the trembling of her thread,
Whose filmy cord should bind the struggling fly. Dryden.They with fruitless toil
Flap filmy pinions oft, to extricate
Their feet in liquid shackles bound, ’till death
Bereave them of their worthless souls; such doom
Waits luxury, and lawless love of gain. Phillips.Loose to the winds their airy garments flew,
Thin glitt’ring textures of the filmy dew;
Dipt in the richest tincture of the skies,
Where light disports in ever-mingling dyes. Alexander Pope.
