the fragrance of pine resin is frankincense poured out—a balm of stars and snow and moonlit nights - John Geddes
...Bud forth as the rose planted by the brooks of waters. Give ye a sweet odor as frankincense. Send forth flowers, as the lily...and bring forth leaves in grace, and praise with canticles, and bless the Lord in his works." —Ecclesiasticus 39:17-19 - Douai-Rheims Bible
