使用する際の注意点

This word is a hapax legomenon attested in the problematic Second Cleopatra Glossary where it is glossed with the also hapax legomenon Old English leoht leap. William Somner conjectured imbilium may be a mistake for the New Latin impilia 'woollen socks,' or otherwise a dialectal synonym of excipulus, 'a weale; a snatch'.
