nimbus

As journalists report bolder acts by the renegades, Nimbus and his friends are forced to move further from childhood innocence.

But the nimbus was not worn at all at this early period; such a criterion is therefore inadmissible.

In one example Mary wears a nimbus, a proof of comparatively late date.

In later art the hand is sometimes surrounded by a cruciform nimbus, to indicate more clearly its divine character.

This is a Saint, as he has the nimbus round his head, and from his young and beardless face it is probably St. John.

Overcast skies of heavy nimbus cloud were the rule and the air was continually charged with drifting snow.
