  "en": "A dal-rhymed poem Amr ibn Ma'dikarib composed when Qays ibn Makshuh threatened him for defying him and going to the Prophet: he reminds Qays that on the day of Dhu San'a' he had counselled him clearly, to fear God and do good, but Qays like a donkey was fooled by its tether; then he threatens that whoever meets him meets a maned lion. Ibn Hisham gives Abu Ubayda's reading of three lines and says Abu Ubayda did not know the rest."
