Line and Hemp, being rated in water, and dried again, 1. are braked with a wooden Brake, 2. where the Shives 3. fall down, then they are heckled with an Iron Heckle, 4. where the Tow 5. is parted from it.
Flax is tied to a Distaff, 6. by the Spinster, 7. which with her left hand pulleth out the Thred, 8. and with her right hand turneth a wheel 9 or a Spindle 10. upon which is a Wharl 11.
The Spool receiveth the Thred, 13. which is drawn thence upon a Yarn-windle; 14 hence either Clewes 15. are wound up, or Hanks 16. are made.
