2 [In a copy of the A, among tropical phrases, I find جَدْوَلٌ مُطَّرِدُ الأَنَابِيبِ وَالكُعُوبِ; but it seems that there is an omission here, and that after جَدْوَلٌ we should read مُطَّرِدٌ; and then, وَرُمْحٌ الخ, i. e. A spear even and regular in the internodal portions and the knots.] See مُطَرِّدٌ.
