Athenaeus, The Deipnosophists 12:8
Aristocles and Chares say that Susa derives its name from the seasonable and beautiful character of the place
for that what the Greeks call the lily (κρίνον) is called in the Persian language σοῦσον ( Souson )

Songs of Solomon 2:2
- כשושנה בין החוחים
- ὡς κρίνον ἐν μέσῳ ἀκανθῶν
- As the Lily among thorns

1 Kings 7:19
And the chapiters that were upon the top of the pillars were of lily work in the porch, four cubits.
