The art of weaving, by hand and by power, with an introductory account of its rise and progress in ancient and modern times . p requires two back leaves, andtwo bead lams and their standards.

These last are necessary, as one half of thewhip is occasionally crossed while the other half is straight andparallel, and consequently each half must be slackened indepen-dently of the other. When the gauze part is woven either withthe bead lam shaft, or by omitting the upper doup and standard,two rolls are also necessary for the ground, as formerly add another roll for the selvages, which, being woven plainwithout any twist, do not work up equally with the other , however, is commonly avoided by beaming the selvages onthe same roll Avith the ground, and suspending a small weightto each below the roll to keep them moderately tight, and the slackpart is taken in at the face of the cloth, when necessary, at the endof the piece.
