دَلَالَةُ اللَّفْظِ عَلَى مَا وَافَقَهْيَدْعُونَهَا دَلَالَةَ الْمُطَابَقَهْ
وَجُزْئِهِ تَضَمُّنًا وَمَا لَزِمْفَهْوَ الْتِزَامٌ إِنْ بِعَقْلٍ الْتُزِمْ
The signification of a word on what it fits exactly they call correspondence; on its part, inclusion; and on what is bound to it, implication — if the binding is made by the intellect.

The lesson
Two verses give the whole doctrine of verbal . When a word signifies exactly the meaning it was assigned to, it is (muṭābaqa): “house” for the whole house. When it signifies a part of that meaning, it is (taḍammun): “house” for the roof. When it signifies something outside the meaning but bound to it, it is (iltizām): “house” for the builder.
The poem adds the ' condition for : the binding must be made by the intellect, so that the meaning cannot come to mind without the thing bound to it. A merely customary link is not enough for the logician, though the scholars of uṣūl and accept it.
