a pale rendition of the aria.
a pale sun.
a pallid performance.
a pallid sky.
her wan face suddenly flushed.
pale prose with the faint sweetness of lavender.
the late afternoon light coming through the el tracks fell in pale oblongs on the street.
the pale (or wan) stars.
the pale light of a half moon.
the pallid face of the invalid.
the wan light of dawn.
