Ex quorum nidore incurabiles morbos contraherent, nisi fumo storacis occurrerent. Hujus arboris gummi proprie stacte vocatur, abusive etiam myrrha. Calami. Cinnamomi est virgultum, et in India vel Æthiopia nascitur duorum tantum cubitorum. Dicitur autem cinnamomum, quia in modum cannæ subtiles et replicatos habet calamos, cinerei vel nigri coloris; qui fracti visibile spiramentum reddunt, et subtile quidem charum; grossum vero, vile et despectum. Calamus aromatica species juxta Libanum. Myrrhæ, cinnamomi, calami, cassiæ. Hæ quatuor species significant quatuor principales virtutes, quibus oleo unctionis, id est gratia misericordiæ, Dei Ecclesia dedicanda est et sanctificanda.
