BLEA

n.The part of a tree, which lies immediately under the bark.

 

BLEACH

v.t.[Eng. bleak. ] To whiten; to make white or whiter; to take out color; applied to many things, but particularly to cloth and thread. Bleaching is variously performed, but in general by steeping the cloth in lye, or a solution of pot or pearl ashes, and then exposing it to the solar rays.
