161. _I put on fine clothes_, elāsagh temálsătēn ihōskătnēn.

_The Tawárek everywhere, in their encampments (tentoria sua) put

on their worst clothing_, Imōshagh kodihén ehánan nissen

sassáharen áshelróhĕra annĕsen.

_I assume all my weapons_, isdawagh tazólinin ikétenes.

[Note: _Elis_ clothing (of gun); _isilse_, man’s dress; _ilās_, he

dressed himself, put on; _temalsat_, garment. This root is also Kab.,

where it is apt to be confused with other roots,—_illes_, he touched;

_illes_, he sheared sheep; which I have not found in Barth. “A fleece”

combines the ideas of shearing and clothing.

_Ihōskatnēn_ is fem. pl. from _ihōsken_ (a participial form), handsome.

_Isdau_, he collected, from _idau_, it was collected: whence _tidauen_,

they congregate; _amīdi_, a friend. In Kab. this root is replaced by

_idukkel_, whence also _amdukkel_, a friend; _isdukkel_, he collected.

_Tazōli_, iron, weapon; from Kab. _wezzāl_, iron. Root, _gzl_, to cut,

&c.]
