dullness

The quality of being slow of understanding things.

The quality of being uninteresting; boring; humorless or irksome.

If to raise malicious smiles at the infirmities or misfortunes of those who have never injured us be the province of wit or Humour, Heaven grant me a double Portion of Dullness—

Lack of interest or excitement.

The lack of visual brilliance; want of sheen.
