You say, وَجَدَتْ النَّاسَ يَغْمِصُ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا [I found the people blaming one another,, &c.]; as alsoيَغْتَمِصُ↓. (A.) And غَمَصْتَهُ بِسُوْءٍ [Thou imputedst evil to him]. (TA, from a trad.) And غَمَصْتُ عَلَيْهِ قَوْلًا قَالَهُ I blamed him, or found fault with him, for a saying that he said. (Ṣ.)

(TA.)

[Hence, perhaps,] غَمِصَ هٰذَا الأَمْرُ عَلَىَّ This thing, or affair, turned against me, and became attended with trouble. (JK.)

[And hence, perhaps,] لَا تَغْمَصْ عَلَىَّ [in the CK تَغْمِصْ] Be not thou angry with me: so accord. to the O [and the JK]: but accord. to the Ḳ, do not thou lie against me, or utter falsehood. (TA.)

غَمَصٌ Fluid filth [or foul matter] in the inner corner of the eye: (Mgh:) or what is fluid of [the filth, or foul matter, or white filth, which collects in the inner corner of the eye, and which, when concrete, is called] رَمَص: (Ṣ, Ḳ:) or a thing like froth, which the eye emits; a portion whereof is termed غَمَصَةٌ↓: (TA:) or what resembles white froth, in the side of the eye: but رَمَصٌ is in the side of the eyelashes: (ISh:) or both these words signify dirt which the eye emits: or غَمَصٌ is what is concrete.

Sirius]: (TA:) the former is also called الغَمُوصُ↓, (Ṣ, Ḳ,) and الرُّمَيْصَآءُ, (TA,) and الشِّعْرَى الشَّامِيَّةُ: (IAth:) it is one of the Mansions of the Moon [accord. to those who make the term نَوْءٌ to signify the auroral setting; namely, the Seventh]; (TA;) and is in the ذِرَاع; (Ṣ;) i. e., it is the greater of the two stars called الذِّرَاعُ المَقْبُوضَةُ: (IAth:) it is called الغميصاء because of its smallness and its littleness of light [in comparison with the other شعرى], from غَمَصُ العَيْنِ: (TA:) [or the reason of its being so called is this:] the Arabs assert that the شِعْرَيَانِ are the sisters of سُهَيْل [or Canopus]; (IDrd, Ṣ;) and that they [three] were together; but that سهيل descended into the south, and الشِّعْرَى اليَمَانِيَّةُ [which is Sirius] followed it; (IDrd;) this latter, they say, crossed the Milky way, and was therefore named العَبُورُ; and الغميصاء remained in her place, weeping for the loss of the two others until her eye became affected with غَمَص: (IDrd, Ḳ:*) they also assert that thou seest العبور when she rises as though she desired to cross [the Milky Way] (كَأَنَّهَا تَسْتَعْبِرُ); but الغميصاء thou seest not [as yet in any part of Arabia], she having wept until she has become affected with غَمَص. (Ṣ.)
