s. f, Incense; a plant (Dolomiæa macrocephala, Juniperus communis) which is not uncommon from the Sutlej up to the Indus, often growing on the crests of ridges. The odorous root is locally used as incense offered at shrines and to Rajas, and the flowers also are placed in temples on the Sutlej. The bruised root is likewise applied to eruptions, and a decoction of it is taken in colic, &c., and some part of the plant is used medicinally. The root is from many places exported to the plains, sometimes after being pounded and made up into cakes with its own juice. It is officinal in the Panjab plains. It is considered cordial, and given in puerperal fever:—dhúp deṉá, v. a. To burn incense.
