 * pure myrrh.
   Myrrh is a white gum, issuing from the trunk and larger
   branches of a thorny tree resembling the acacia, growing in
   Arabia, Egypt, and Abyssinia.  Its taste is extremely bitter;
   but its smell, though strong, is agreeable; and it entered
   into the composition of the most costly ointments among the
   ancients.  The epithet {deror,} rendered pure, properly
   denotes fluid, from the Arabic {darra,} to flow; by which is
   meant the finest and most excellent kind, called {stacte,}
   which issues of itself from the bark without incision.

 * cinnamon.
   {Kinnamon bosem,} odoriferous or spicy cinnamon, is the bark
   of the canella, a small tree of the size of a willow growing
   in the island of Ceylon.

 * sweet calamus.
   {Kenaih bosem,} {calamus aromaticus,} or odoriferous cane, is
   a reed growing in Egypt, Syria, and India, about two feet in
   height, bearing from the root a knotted stalk, quite round,
   containing in its cavity a soft white pith.  It is said to
   scent the air while growing; and when cut down, dried, and
   powdered, makes an ingredient in the richest perfumes.
