(A 'Obeyd, T, S.) A poet, cited by As, says,

وَ مَنْ لَكَ بِالرَّايءِبِ الخَاثِرِ

سَقَاكَ أَبُو مَا عِزٍ رَايءِبًا

(T, S Mgh) meaning Aboo-Má'iz gave thee to drink churned [milk], (T, S,) but how wilt thou obtain, (T,) or [rather] but who will be answerable to thee for, (S,) the unchurned (T, S) [that is thick, or] that has not had its butter taken forth from it? (S. [Or رَايءِب in the former instance may be from رَابَ of which the aorist is يَرِيبُ; so that it may there mean what occasioned doubt, or evil opinion: see رَايءِبٌ in article ريب: and if so, this word as belonging to the present article, and applied to milk, may signify only thick, or unchurned.]) And one says, مَا عِنْدَهُ شَوْبٌ وَ لَا ↓ رَوْبٌ, (T,) or مَا عِنْدِى الخ, (M,) i. e. He has not, or I have not, mixed honey, nor milk such as is termed رَايءِب: (T, M:) or, as some say, honey nor milk; thus explaining the two words شوب and روب without restriction. (M. [See also article شوب.])
