El-Hoseyn Ibn-Muteyr uses the pl. metaphorically in relation to rain, by way of comparison, saying,

* فَإِذَا تَجَلَّتْ فَاضَتِ الأَطْبَآءُ *

[in which, for تَجَلَّتْ, I read تَحَلَّبَ; for the verse, literally rendered, seems to mean, ‡ Its teats were abundant as the abundance of its heavy rain, (or rather I would read لِكَثْرَةِ وبله by reason of the abundance, &c.,) so that when it flowed with rain, as though it were milked, the teats poured forth exuberantly]. (TA.)

أَطْبَآءُ الكَلْبَةِ † [Bitch's dugs] is an appellation of the tree called مُخَاطَة [i. e. the sebesten]. (TA in art. مخط, q. v.)

طَبِيَةٌ, like فَرِحَةٌ, on the authority of Fr, in the Ḳ erroneously written طَبِيَّةٌ, (TA,) [and also there misplaced, for, with فَهِىَ (in the CK فَهُوَ) preceding it, it should follow immediately after the explanation of the phrase طَبِيَتِ النَّاقَةُ, being the part. n., and thus signifying Whose طُبْى is flaccid, flabby, or pendulous,] applied to a she-camel; (Fr, TA;) and طَبْوَآءُ signifies the same; (Fr, Ḳ, TA;) or this is applied to a she-goat, meaning whose dugs (خِلْفَاهَا) descend towards the ground. (So in one of my copies of the Ṣ: in the other copy omitted.)

خِلْفٌ طَبِىٌّ i. q. مُجِيبٌ [meaning Yielding milk]; (Ṣ, Ḳ; [thus in my copies of the Ṣ, and in copies of the Ḳ; but said in the TA to be written in the Ḳ and in the copies of the Ṣ, مُجَيَّبٌ, which is evidently wrong;]) as though called, and answering the call. (JM.)
