رَقِىَ , aor. يَرْقَى, inf. n. رُقِىٌّ (JK, K, TA,
[but this inf. n. is omitted in the CK,]) and رَقْىٌ,
(K, TA, [but this is omitted in my MS. copy of
the K,]) He ascended, إِلَيْهِ [to him, or it]; as
also ↓ ارتقى, and ↓ ترقّى: (K:) or he ascended a
ladder, or a stair: (JK:) or رَقِيتُ فِيهِ, (S, Msb,
in the Mgh رَقِىَ فيه,) inf. n. رُقِىٌّ (S, Mgh, Msb)
and رَقْىٌ; (S, Msb;) and ↓ ارتقيت, (S, Mgh, *
Msb,) and ↓ ترقّيت; (Mgh, * Msb;) I ascended
it; (S;) namely, a ladder, or a stair, (S, Mgh,
Msb,) &c.: (Msb:) and رَقِيتُ الجَبَلَ (Msb,)
and السَّطْحَ, (Mgh, Msb, TA,) the verb being
thus trans. by itself, (Msb, TA,) without فِى
(Mgh,) and likewise with فى, (TA,) I ascended,
or mounted, upon the mountain, and upon the
house-top: (Msb:) and ↓ ارتقى is in like manner
trans. without فى; whence the saying, لَقَدِ
ٱرْتَقَيْتَ مُرْتَقًى ↓ صَعْبًا [Thou hast indeed ascended
a difficult place of ascent]. (Mgh.) ―

اِرْقَ عَلَى ظَلْعِكَ Ascend thou, and go, [according
to thy limping, or halting, i. e.] as far as thou

TA. [Some, instead of اِرْقَ, say اِرْقَأْ; and some,
اِرْقِ, from the verb mentioned in the next sentence;

He charmed him, syn. عَوَّذَهُ, (JK, Mgh, Msb,)
by [invoking] God: (Msb:) and (Mgh) he
puffed, or sputtered, upon his charm; syn. نَفَثَ
فِى عُوذَتِهِ: (Mgh, K:) [it signifies he charmed
him from, or against, such a thing; (مِنْ كَذَا;)
and also he enchanted him, or fascinated him;
by uttering a spell; or by tying knots in a thread,
or string, and puffing, or sputtering, upon them;
or by both these actions combined: see the last
chap. but one of the Kur-án:] the epithet applied
to the performer is ↓ رَاقٍ [meaning Charming;
&c.]; (S, Mgh, TA;) and ↓ رَقَّآءٌ [A charmer;
&c.; or one who habitually practises charming;
&c.]: (JK, K, TA:) and the epithet applied to
the person who is the object of the performance
is ↓ مَرْقِىٌّ [meaning Charmed; &c.]. (JK, TA.)
In the saying اِرْقِ عَلَى رَأْسِى مِنَ الصُّدَاعِ, meaning
Charm thou me (عَوِّذْنِى [or rather charm thou
my head against the headache]), the verb is made
trans. by means of على because it is as though it
implied the meaning of اِقْرّأْ [i. e. “ recite thou ”
a spell] and اُنْفُثْ [i. e. “ puff, ” or “ sputter, ”
upon knots]. (Mgh.)
