“وَمِنْ عَجَائِبِ مِصْرَ : حَشِيشَةٌ يُقَالُ لَهَا ٱلدِّيسُ ، يُتَّخَذُ مِنْهَا حِبَالٌ لِلسُّفُنِ ، تُسَمَّى تِلْكَ ٱلْحِبَالُ ٱلْقِرْقِسُ، يُؤْخَذُ مِنَ ٱلْقِرْقِسِ قِطْعَةٌ فَيُشْعَلُ بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ كَٱلشَّمْعِ ، ثُمَّ يُطْفِئُ فَيَمْكُثُ سَائِرَ ٱللَّيْلِ ، فَإِذَا ٱحْتَاجُوا إِلَيْهِ أَخَذُوا طَرَفَهُ فَأَدَارُوهُ كَٱلْمِخْرَاقِ.”

Of the wonders of Egypt, there is a grass called diss, and one makes from it ropes for ships, these ropes are called qirqis, one takes from the qirqis a piece and torches it like a candle between the hands, then one extinguishes and it bides the whole night; if you need to put it to use then you take its tip and twist it like a kerchief to burn.

“فَلَيْتَ ٱلْأَفَاعِي يَعْضَضْنَنَا … مَكَانَ البَرَاغِيثِ وَٱلْقِرْقِسِ يُحَرَّمْنَ جَنْبِيَّ نَوْمَ الْفِرَاشِ … وَيُؤْذِينَ جِسْمِيَ إِنْ أَجْلَسِ”

If only the vipers bit us … at the place of gnats and midges! They would have saved my sides for bed-sleep … and allow my chain to sit
