(K.) ― -b3- And He collected it together; namely, flesh-meat in a cooking-pot: thus it has two contr. significations. (K.) ― -b4- And He ate it entirely; namely, flesh-meat: (K:) and in like manner, قَرْضَبَ الشَّاةَ, said of the wolf, he ate entirely the sheep, or goat. (TA.) And [the inf. n.] قَرْضَبَةٌ is said to signify The [ eating indiscriminately, ] not clearing, or freeing, the moist, or tender, from the dry, or tough, by reason of vehement voracity.
