counter-balance the Packthreads, which going from the 
Top of the Rings or Loops, are palled over the Pul- 
lies in the ‘table directly over the Loom, and are 
continued nearly in a Horizontal Pofition on one fide 
of the Loom, to a convenient Diftance ; where they are 
allfpreadon aCrofs-piece fattened to two Staples: Thefe 
are called the Tall of the Mounture ; and from each of 
thefe Packthreads, juft by the fide of the Loom, are 
faftned other Packthreads called Simples , which de- 
fcend to the Ground; fo that by pulling xbtfe/imple 
Chords , you raife any of the Threads of the Warp at 
pleafure ; wherefore they fatten a Loop or Potlart to 
as many of thef t Jimple Chords as there are Threads 
of the Warp to be pull’d up at every Shoot, or every 
Throw of the Shuttle; by which means the Shoot 
fhews itfelf on the right Side, where the Warp is 
pulled up : And in ordering this, they are guided by 
the Pattern, on which they count the Diftances of 
the Subdivifictns, which contain the fame Colours in 
the fame Line, and can be Ihot at once : Then they 
fatten Potlarts to the feveral Jimple Chords., that 
draw up the Rings, through which thofe Threads of 
the Warp run, which are to lie behind this Colour ; 
they tie all thefe Loops together, and fatten a Piece 
of Worfted or Silk to the Knot, of the fame Colour 
that the Workman is to throw ; and the Boy, when 
he pulls each Loop, names the Colour, that the Wea- 
ver may take the proper Shuttle, and fo on for every 
Colour to be thrown..
