ارزمت She (a camel) uttered a cry such as is termed رَزَمَة [q. v.] when loving, or affecting, her young one: (Ṣ:) or she (a camel) uttered a cry of yearning towards her young one: (Ḳ:) and in like manner, ارزمت عَلَى وَلَدِهَا is said of a ewe, or she-goat: but sometimes إِرْزَامٌ means the uttering of a cry, or sound, absolutely: and ارزمت said of a she-camel occurs in a trad. as meaning she uttered a cry.

(Ḳ.) [And it seems that رَزِمَتْ↓ and رَزِمَ signify the same as ارزمت and ارزم said of a she-camel and of thunder: for] the inf. n. رَزَمٌ, used in relation to a camel and to thunder, signify The making a sound or noise. (KL.) ارزمت is also said of a cooking-pot, meaning † It made a noise by its boiling. (Ḥam p. 663.) And you say, ارزمت الرِّيحُ فِى الجَوْفِ † The wind made a sound [in the belly]. (Ḳ.)

Also The lion; and soمُرْزِمٌ↓; (Ḳ, TA;) because he lies upon his breast on his prey, not quitting it: (TA:) or رُزَمٌ (Ḥam p. 362) andرَزَامٌ↓ (TA, and Ḥam ibid., [but in the latter without any syll. signs,]) like سَحَابٌ, andرَزَامَةٌ↓ like سَحَابَةٌ, [which is of a form denoting intensiveness of signification,] (TA,) are epithets applied to a lion, meaning that lies upon his breast on his prey, (Ḥam, TA,) and growls. (Ḥam.) Accord. to J, it is applied in a verse of Sáïdeh Ibn-Ju-eiyeh to an elephant: but accord. to IB, and the Expos. of Skr, it is there applied to a lion, as meaning That has remained firm, or steadfast, in his place. (TA.)

المِرْزَمُ is a name of The right star [app. γ, i. e. Bellatrix,] in the left arm of الجَبَّار [or Orion]. (Ḳzw. [Golius says, as on the authority of Ḳzw, that it is “a star in the right shoulder of Orion:” but Ḳzw says that this star (which is a of Orion) is called مَنْكِبُ الجَوْزَآءِ and يَدُ الجَوْزَآءِ; and then he mentions that in the left arm, as being called المرزم: whence it seems that Golius was misled by the omission of some words in a copy of the work of Ḳzw.]) And المِرْزَمَانِ, (Ṣ, Ḳ,) also called مِرْزَمَا الشِّعْرَيَيْنِ, (Ṣ,) is the name of Two stars [of which one is commonly known as β of Canis Major, and the other is app. β of Canis Minor, though Golius says, on the authority of Ulugh Beg, that the former is in the right hind leg of Canis Major,] with the شِعْرَيَانِ [by which latter appellation are meant Sirius and Procyon], (Ḳ,) or one of which is in [or by] الشِّعْرَى [commonly so called, i. e. Sirius,] and the other is in الذِّرَاع [by which is meant الذِّرَاع المَقْبُوضَة, i. e. the asterism consisting of α and β of Canis Minor]; (Ṣ;) or one of them is الذراع المقبوضة [mentioned above and the other is الشِّعْرَى (q. v.) commonly so called]: thus says Ibn-Kunáseh: both are of the stars of rain: and sometimes the sing. appellation (المِرْزَمُ) is used [app. as applied to Sirius, or to Bellatrix, or perhaps to β of Canis Minor]. (TA.) نَوْءُ المِرْزَمِ [means The auroral setting of some one of the stars above mentioned; for it] is so termed because of its intense cold. (TA. See 1.) السَّمَاكُ المِرْزَمُ is another name for السِّمَاكُ الرَّامِحُ [The star Arcturus]. (Az and TA in art. رمح. [This star neither sets nor rises aurorally in the cold season, nor is it one of the Mansions of the Moon; but it rises aurorally during “the first of the rains,” the autumnal rain, called الوَسْمِىّ.])
