كَبْرَتَ
He smeared his camel over with
كِبْرِيت [or sulphur], mixed with grease, and with
خَضَخَاض, which is a kind of
نِفْط [or naphtha], black, and of a thin consistence; not قَطِرَان; for this is the black, thick, expressed juice of a certain tree. This is done to cure the scab, for the removal of which it is very efficacious.
