lis (Fr.). A warlike machine was formerly so called. It consisted of
a piece of wood or a stake, about the size of the human body, which was
made smaller at the top than at the bottom, and resembled a lily not yet
blown. Several of these were tied together with ozier or willow twigs,
and were used for the security of a camp. They were not unlike the
palisades of the present day.
