حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: أَتَى النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَلَى بَعْضِ نِسَائِهِ وَمَعَهُنَّ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَنْجَشَةُ، رُوَيْدًا سَوْقَكَ بِالْقَوَارِيرِ.

Musaddad narrated to us, saying: Isma‘il narrated to us, saying: Ayyub narrated to us, from Abu Qilaba, from Anas ibn Malik, who said: The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, came to some of his wives, with Umm Sulaym among them. He said, ‘Anjasha, take it gently as you drive the glass vessels.’

رُوَيْدًا سَوْقَكَ بِالْقَوَارِيرِ.
The Arabic addresses Anjasha and uses ‘glass vessels’ as an image; the English witness likewise renders the image literally.
Review how much of the metaphor should be made explicit in English while preserving the source wording.
