  Balsam \Bal"sam\, n. [L. balsamum the balsam tree or its resin,
     Gr. ?. See {Balm}, n.]
     1. A resin containing more or less of an essential or
        volatile oil.
  
     Note: The balsams are aromatic resinous substances, flowing
           spontaneously or by incision from certain plants. A
           great variety of substances pass under this name, but
           the term is now usually restricted to resins which, in
           addition to a volatile oil, contain benzoic and
           cinnamic acid. Among the true balsams are the balm of
           Gilead, and the balsams of copaiba, Peru, and Tolu.
           There are also many pharmaceutical preparations and
           resinous substances, possessed of a balsamic smell, to
           which the name balsam has been given.
