So in the K: but in the L, as follows. الوث الصِّلِّيَانُ The صلّيان dried up, and then produced fresh, or green, shoots: and sometimes the same verb is thus used with reference to the ضَعَة and هَلْتَى and سَحَم: of the ثُمَام, one scarcely ever says الوث, but بَقَلَ; nor does one say of the الوث عَرْفَج, but ادبى, and إِِمْتَعَسَ. (TA.) ― -b2- أَلَثْتُ بِهِ مَالِى I asked him to keep my property as a deposit. (K.) From اللَّوْثُ “ the taking refuge. ” (TA.) ― -b3- لَمْ يُلِثْ, in a verse of El-'Ajjáj, He, or it, did not make to delay. (TA.)
