   Etymology: Latin.

   1. A plant called the rose of Jerusalem, or our lady’s rose.2.The wood of a prickly tree, heavy, oleaginous, somewhat sharp and bitter to the taste, and anciently in much repute as an astringent, but now little used. There are four kinds of this wood; the first of the colour of box, hard, solid, heavy, and smelling like roses; which is therefore called rosewood. The second, red like yew, and of a very agreeable smell. The third, hard, twisted, knotty, of a rank smell, like that of a goat, and a disagreeable taste. The fourth has an ash coloured bark, and the wood is of a purple dye. Aspalathus affords an oil of admirable scent, reputed one of the best perfumes. Ephraim Chambers
