He speaks with unreasonable words, saying, "I know Sami, and even if he had a place among them, he would guide them." He is not one to do so, for he would not dare. And if I mention "awānis" like desert gazelles in a warrior, I say: The minister Abu Bakr said, and it is narrated by Iqbal, "And what is wrong with him if he tames swift camels?" The "najā'ib" are the noble ones. His saying "yurawwiḍ" means to tame their stubbornness. As for if it is narrated that I mention "awānis," then "awānis" is the plural of "anisa," which is one who is familiar with her conversation. "Muḥārib" is the plural of "ḥirāb," which is the chamber. And "al-aqyāl" are the last of the kings, and below them are "sam qayn." It is said "al-aqwāl," so its plural is with "ya'," according to the pronunciation. And its plural with "waw" is according to the origin, because its origin is "qubūl." So the "waw" was changed to "ya'" because it was adjacent to the "ya'," then it was assimilated into it, making it "qayl" with a doubled "ya'." The Arabs lighten the doubled letters, so they say "qayl" for "qayl" and "mayyit" for "mayyit." And sometimes "maqāwil" is pluralized as "shuf'ā." The verse means that he is saying, "What is wrong with him in comparing 'awānis' to desert gazelles?" This is a form of belittling, meaning, "What is wrong with him in the comparison if I do not achieve anything bad from them?" He specifically mentioned desert gazelles because they are more beautiful than others. It is also said that kings arrange gazelles and warriors arrange chambers. And "inna" here is accusative, functioning as an adverb of place.

And the verse: "The virgins of a house on a cloudy and rainy day, their elbows touching, are lazy." "Ad-dujn" and "al-lujjah" are the shade of the clouds. The sky became cloudy and rainy. "Al-jibā'" is the absent bone of the elbow, which is due to the abundance of their flesh. His saying "maksāl" is a form of "mif'āl" from laziness, meaning they are not quick to stand. So he says, "Perhaps the virgins of a house I entered, they were moving around the woman, their elbows touching due to their softness." This is why he said "jibā' al-'iẓām" (bones of the elbows), comparing them to a ewe that has no horns. His saying "maksāl" means they are not quick to move or light. Something similar was mentioned before in his saying: "The languor of standing, the قطع of speech." And similar to this is the saying of Qays bin al-Khaṭīm: "She sleeps due to her importance, and when she stands, she almost moves slowly."
