EL INEFABLE CISNE
“When by continuance of decoction the colour changeth to white, they then call it their Swan, their Dove, their white Stone of Paradise.”
(PHILALETHES)

"Almost all of its symbolic meanings, however, concern the white swan, the bird of Venus, which is why Bachelard suggests that, in poetry and literature, it is an image of the naked woman: «permitted nudity, immaculate and permitted whiteness»."
(CIRLOT)
