[See also 3, and 6.]) Accord. to El-Báhilee, ذَاتُ شَغْبٍ [applied to a she-ass] means (tropical:) Having the quality of opposing or contravening [the male]: so in the saying of El-'Ajjáj, كَأَنَّ تَحْتِى ذَاتَ شَغْبٍ سَمْحَجَا قَوْدَاآءَ لَا تَحْمِلُ اـِلَّا مُخْدَجَا (tropical:) [ As though beneath me were a she-ass] such as opposes or contravenes [the male], long-bodied, long-necked, [ that would not bear in her womb aught save a fœtus imperfectly formed; ] meaning, لَا تُؤَاتِبهِ وَتَشْغَبُ عَلَيْهِ [i. e. that she (the beast that he was riding) would not comply with his desire, and was contravening him ].
