(TA.) One says also, حَبَكْتُ الحَظِيرَةَ بِقَصَبَاتِ كَمَ تُحْبَكُ عُرُوشُ الكَرْمِ بِالحِبَالِ [I bound the enclosure for cattle with canes, or reeds, (or perhaps we should read بِقُضْبَانٍ, i. e. with twigs,) like as the trellises of the grape-vine are bound with cords: see also the last sentence of this paragraph].
