A one-paragraph dictionary entry defining the heddle (heald) as one of the sets of parallel double threads that, with their mounting, make up the harness guiding the warp threads to the lathe or batten. It also defines the heddle-eye, the loop in each heddle that receives a warp thread, and credits Webster as the source.
