اغتمد اللَّيْلَ

(tropical:) He (a man, S, L) entered into [the darkness of] the night; (S, A, L, K;) as though it became as a غِمْد to him; like as one says اِدَّرَعَ اللَّيْلَ: (S, L:) and simply اغتمد he ventured upon, encountered, or braved, the night, (رَكِبَهُ,) to seek food for his family. (S, L.)
