CIDE DICTIONARY

beryln. [F. béryl, OF. beril, L. beryllus, Gr. bh`ryllos, prob. fr. Skr. vai. Cf. Brilliant.].
     A mineral of great hardness, and, when transparent, of much beauty. It occurs in hexagonal prisms, commonly of a green or bluish green color, but also yellow, pink, and white. It is a silicate of aluminum and beryllium. The aquamarine is a transparent, sea-green variety used as a gem. The emerald is another variety highly prized in jewelry, and distinguished by its deep color, which is probably due to the presence of a little oxide of chromium.  [1913 Webster]
