   Note: Among the trees called cypress are the common Oriental
         cypress, {Cupressus sempervirens}, the evergreen
         American cypress, {Cupressus thyoides} (now called
         {Chamaecyparis sphaeroidea}), and the deciduous

         anciently been used at funerals, and to adorn tombs,
         the Oriental species is an emblem of mourning and
         sadness.
