resembling in its growth and its leaves the [
kind of willow called]
غَرَب:
when young, it is white within; but when it grows old, it becomes black, like

ebony],
and so thick that wide tables are made of it; (AHn, M;)
and camels' saddles (
رِحَال)
are made of it. (AHn, S, M.) ― -b2- Hence,

رَحْلٌ), as being made of the kind of tree above described. (TA.) ― -b3- Also,
A species of grape-vine, that rises somewhat upon a trunk, (AHn, M, K, *)
not all of it spreading out into branches: (AHn, M:) AHn adds,
its native place is the district of El-Jezeereh called Sarooa (
سَرُوع),
and it is related, of a person of knowledge, that he saw it at Et-Táïf: and hence the name of the raisins called ↓
مَيْسِىّ : (TA:) [but ISd says, in continuation of AHn's account of the former of the trees above mentioned, not of the latter,] an Arab of the desert informed me, that he had seen it at Et-Táïf, and hence, he said, the raisins called

مَيْسِى] are thus named: (M:) [and F says,]
مَيْسٌ signifies
a kind of raisins; as well as a species of grapevine &c. (K.) ― -b4- Also, [The
pole of a plough;] the
long piece of wood that is between the two bulls. (AHn. M.)
