Hello,

1. Beside the flute lay a piece of paper, yellow with age.

What is the meaning of the words in bold?

Hi,

The paper was so old that it had become yellow. 

Best wishes, Clive

Some paper changes color slightly as it gets older. This paper may have been white to start with, but now it looks more yellow than white.
