(Msb, K.) [Accord. to my copy of the Msb, the same is said of a well; but I incline to think that بِيأْر is here written by mistake for تِبْن (meaning straw) or some similar word.] You say also, حَشَّ الوَلَد, (IAar, S, A, K,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (TA,) or inf. n. حُشُوشٌ, (IAar,) and, as some say, حُشَّ; (A'Obeyd, S;) and ↓ استحشّ; (TA;) The child, or young one, (S, A, K,) of a she-camel, (IAar,) dried up in the belly, (S, A, K,) or womb, (TA,) the time of the birth having been exceeded.

(TA.) ― -b3- Hence, (A,) حَشَّ النَّارَ, (S, A, K,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (S,) and Az adds بِالْحَطَبِ, (TA,) (tropical:) He kindled the fire; or made it to burn, or to burn fiercely; (S, A, K;) and fed it with firewood, like as one feeds a beast with حَشِيش: (A, TA:) or he collected to it what was scattered of the firewood: (TA:) and he stirred it.

Arabe, ”, see. ed., vol. i. pp. 210-283. ― -b3- حَشِيشَةُ السُّلْطَانِ: see خَرْدَلٌ.] ― -b4- حَشِيشٌ also signifies A child, or young one, that has dried up in the belly of its mother; (Mgh, Msb, TA;) and so ↓ حَشٌّ and ↓ مَحْشُوشٌ and ↓ أُحْشُوشٌ: (TA:) or حُشٌّ [and the rest], a child, or young one, that perishes in the belly of its mother. (K.) It is said in a trad., فَأَلْقَتْ حشِيشًا And she cast forth a child, or young one, dried up. (Mgh.) And you say, أَلْقَتْ وَلَدَهَا حَشِيشًا She (a camel) cast forth her young one dried up. (Msb.)

(A, TA.) And مَا بَقِىَ مِنَ الشَّمْسِ إِلَّا حُشَاشَةٌ نَازِعٌ (tropical:) [There remained not, of the sun, save a last departing relic]. (A, TA.)
