[Thou seest it (meaning the white hair intermixing with black) like the thagham (the plant so called) inserted in musk, grieving the lousing women when they louse me], فَلَيْنِى is for فَلَيْنَنِى, (T, S,) the two ن being deemed difficult of utterance; (T;) as Akh says, he has rejected the latter ن because it is merely a preservative to the verb [lest its affix should be supposed to form an essential part of it], whereas the former ن may not be rejected, because it is the pronoun of the verb.

فِلْيَةٌ, mentioned in this art. by Freytag, with فَلَالِىٌّ as its pl., is taken by him from a mistranscription in the CK in art. فل: see فِلِّيَّةٌ in that art.]

الفلَآءُ, like كِسَآء [in measure], means فلآء الشعر, [evidently, I think, فِلَآءُ الشَّعَرَ, or the first word may be a mistranscription for فَلْىُ,] i. e. اخذك ما فيه [lit. Thy taking what is in it, in which “ it ”

refers to the شعر: app. a euphemism for the taking of lice from the hair: if so, it may be an inf. n., like فَلْىٌ; (see 1, first sentence;) or it may be a simple subst., like what here follows]: mentioned by IAmb, from his companions. (TA.) فِلَايَةٌ [The act of searching the head for lice;] the subst. from فَلَى رَأْسَهُ signifying “ he searched his head for lice. ” (Lth, * T, * K.) [See also the next preceding paragraph.]

فَالٍ act. part. n. of 1: fem. فَالِيَةٌ.] فَالِيَاتٌ and فَوَالٍ [are pls. of فَالِيَةٌ and] signify Women who search the head for lice. (T, TA.) See an ex. of the former pl. in the verse cited in the first paragraph. b2: فَالِيَةُ الأَفَاعِى (in which the former word is a pl. [in meaning], M, TA) signifies [lit. The lousers of the vipers; meaning,] accord. to the A, certain species of the kind [of beetles] called خَنَافِس [pl. of خُنْفَسَآء], speckled, found at the holes of the serpents, which they louse: (TA:) or a certain خنفسآء, speckled (M, K) with [the colour termed]

صُحْمَة, which is found at the holes [of serpents &c.], and is the mistress of خَنَافِس; (M;) which is familiar with scorpions and serpents; so that when it comes forth from a hole [thereof], it makes known their existence [therein]: (K:) or certain small things like خنَافس, speckled; which are familiar with scorpions and serpents; so that when they are seen in the hole [thereof] it is known that behind them are scorpions and serpents: (T:) or certain insects (دَوَابُّ) that are found at the holes of the [lizards called] ضِبَاب [pl. of ضَبُّ]; so that when they come forth, it is known that the ضَبّ is coming forth inevitably. (M.) Hence one says, اتتكم فَالِيَةُ الأَفَاعِى, (IAar, T, M, K, *) meaning (assumed tropical:) The beginning of evil to be looked for [has come to you], (IAar, T,) or the beginnings of evil [hare come to you]; (K;) which is a prov. (IAar, T.) b3: And [hence] اِبْنُ الفَوَالِى means The جَانّ; i. e. the serpent [so called]. (T in art. بنى.) فَالِيَةٌ [fem. of فَالٍ, q. v. b2: And also] A knife. (T.)
