حِيَاضُ غُتَيْمٍ ذ , like زُبَيْر, (so in copies of the K,) [or حياض غُتَيْمَ, for it is] a proper name for المَنِيَّةُ, (TA,) meaning Death, (K, TA,) like شَعُوبُ, imperfectly decl. [as being a proper name and of the fem. gender]; so says Z; and, accord. to Lh, الغُتَيْمُ signifies the same, but ISd says, “ I know it not save as from him. ” (TA.) One says, أَوْرَدَهُ حِيَاضَ غُتَيْم [He brought him to death]: and in like manner, وَقَعَ فِى أَحْوَاضِ غُتَيْم [He fell into death], expl. by Lh as meaning he died. (TA.)
