Unfortunately, my copy of Grave's WG is presently out of reach, but I wonder
if anything might be gleaned there....

Found this at http://www.serve.com/Lucius/Graves.index.html :

...The whiteness of the Goddess has always been an ambivalent concept. In
one sense it is the pleasant whiteness of pearl-barley, or a woman's body,
or milk, or unsmutched snow; in another it is the horrifying whiteness of a
corpse, or a spectre, or leprosy.... [p. 361]
