Unholsome Henbane between Two Fragrant Roses; or, Reasons... Proving the Unlawfull... Inserting of the... Apocrypha between the Two... Testaments (1645) is a book by John Vicars.

Abstract

"Unholsome henbane between two fragrant roses, or, Reasons and grounds proving the unlawfull and sinfull inserting of the corrupt and most erronious Apocrypha between the two most pure and sacred testaments, together with a most humble vote and serious desire to our most reverend and religious assembly of divines, to be a means to the high and honorable Court of Parliament for the utter expunging of it out of the Holy-Bible."

In this pamphlet Vicars compared the OT Apocrypha corpus to an unwholesome, toxic plant (the Hyoscyamus niger) grown "between two fragrant roses" and called "for the utter expunging of it out of the Holy-Bible."
