- A foot-rope reaching from the opposite quarter of a yard to its arms or shoulders, and depending about two or three feet under the yard, for the sailors to tread on while they are loosing, reefing, or furling the sails, rigging out the studding-sail booms, &c. in order to keep the horse more parallel to the yard, it is usually attached thereto at proper distances, by certain ropes called stirrups, which have an eye spliced into their lower ends, through which the horse passes. (see stirrups and foot-ropes.) also, a rope formerly fast to the fore-mast fore-shrouds, with a dead-eye to receive the spritsail-sheet-pendant, and keep the spritsail-sheets clear of the flukes of the anchor. also, the breast-rope which is made fast to the shrouds to protect the leadsman. also, applied to any pendant and thimble through which running-rigging was led, now commonly called a lizard. also, a thick rope, extending in a perpendicular direction near the fore or after side of a mast, for the purpose of hoisting some yard, or extending a sail thereon; when before the mast, it is used for the square-sail, whose yard is attached to the horse by means of a traveller or bull`s-eye, which slides up and down. when it is abaft the mast, it is intended for the trysail of a snow; but is seldom used in this position, except in those sloops of war which occasionally assume the appearance of snows to deceive the enemy. also, the name of the sawyer`s frame or trestle. also, the round iron bar formerly fixed to the main-rail at the head with stanchions; a fir rail is now used, and the head berthed up. also, in cutters or schooners, one horse is a stout iron bar, with a large thimble, which spans the vessel from side to side close to the deck before the fore-mast. to this the forestaysail-sheet is hauled, and traverses. the other horse is a similar bar abaft, on which the main-boom sheet traverses. also, cross-pieces on the tops of standards, on which the booms or spare-spars or boats are lashed between the fore and main masts. horses are also termed jack-stays, on which sails are hauled out, as gaff-sails. horse is a term of derision where an officer assumes the grandioso, demanding honour where honour is not his due. also, a strict disciplinarian, in nautical parlance. also, tough salt beef—salt horse.—flemish horse is the horse which has an iron thimble in one end, which goes over the iron point of the yard-arm before the studding-sail boom-iron is put on; in the other, a lashing eye, which is secured near the head earing of the top-sail. it is intended for the men at the earing in reefing, or when setting the top-gallant-studding-sails.
