10 In the saying of Ru-beh, describing camels,
the meaning is, Continuing journeying, or striving, labouring, or exerting themselves, or wearying themselves, [during the night,] having no fodder in their bellies: F says that J has erred in saying that the meaning is, “ having no fodder in their bellies: ” but this is the explanation of the words خفاف الازواد, as IM and others have expressly stated; and this necessarily indicates that سوامد has the meaning assigned to it in the K; so that no error is attributable to J in this case: or, as some say, خفاف الازواد means not having upon their backs [much] provision for the riders.سَوَامِدُ اللَّيْلِ خِفَافُ الأَزْوَادْ
