Cypress \Cy"press\ (s?"pr?s), n.; pl. Cypresses (-?z). [OE.
cipres, cipresse, OF. cipres, F. cypr?s, L. cupressus,
cyparissus (cf. the usual Lat. form cupressus), fr. Gr. ????,
perh. of Semitic origin; cf. Heb. g?pher, Gen. vi. 14.] (Bot)
A coniferous tree of the genus Cupressus. The species are
mostly evergreen, and have wood remarkable for its
durability.
[1913 Webster]
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
American cypress, Taxodium distichum. As having
anciently been used at funerals, and to adorn tombs,
the Oriental species is an emblem of mourning and
sadness.
[1913 Webster]
Cypress vine (Bot.), a climbing plant with red or white
flowers (Ipot[oe]a Quamoclit, formerly Quamoclit
vulgaris).
[1913 Webster]

3. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary |
Cypress
(Heb. tirzah, "hardness"), mentioned only in Isa. 44:14 (R.V.,
"holm tree"). The oldest Latin version translates this word by
ilex, i.e., the evergreen oak, which may possibly have been the
tree intended; but there is great probability that our
Authorized Version is correct in rendering it "cypress." This
tree grows abundantly on the mountains of Hermon. Its wood is
hard and fragrant, and very durable. Its foliage is dark and
gloomy. It is an evergreen (Cupressus sempervirens). "Throughout
the East it is used as a funereal tree; and its dark, tall,
waving plumes render it peculiarly appropriate among the tombs."
