Yellow is represented in the following passage: “But his mother had discouraged him. . . . She could calmly seat herself and with no apparent difficulty give him many hundreds of reasons why he was of vastly more importance on the farm than on the field of battle. . . . At last, however, he had made firm rebellion against this
yellow
light thrown upon the color of his ambitions. The newspapers, the gossip of the village, his own
picturings
, had aroused him to an uncheckable degree” (4).
This could represent Henry slowing down to consider reason since yellow typically indicates caution. In this passage, Henry’s mother is clearly against him going to war. She wants him to think of his responsibilities on the farm which he does but then rejects. He wants to be a hero and be part of a glorious battle and these feelings are “uncheckable” and his actions impulsive. He does not listen to his mother’s words of caution and enlists.
