رَيِّقٌ

Also, (S,) and رَيْقٌ, (S, K,) which is a contraction of the former, sometimes used, (S,) and رَيُّوقٌ, (AO, K,) The first part, (S, K,) and the most excellent, of anything, as, for instance, of youth, and of rain. (S.) [The first and second are also mentioned in article روق, q. v. J cites here, and ascribes to Lebeed, as an example of the second of these words, a verse which I have cited in the third paragraph of article عرض, but with رَوْقَ in the place of رَيْقَ, from the TA, in which it is ascribed to ElBa'eeth.]
