   Syn: To {Draw}, {Drag}.

   Usage: Draw differs from drag in this, that drag implies a
          natural inaptitude for drawing, or positive
          resistance; it is applied to things pulled or hauled
          along the ground, or moved with toil or difficulty.
          Draw is applied to all bodies moved by force in
          advance, whatever may be the degree of force; it
          commonly implies that some kind of aptitude or
          provision exists for drawing. Draw is the more general
          or generic term, and drag the more specific. We say,
          the horses draw a coach or wagon, but they drag it
          through mire; yet draw is properly used in both cases.

      hard material such as pencil, chalk, etc.; delineation;
      also, the figure or representation drawn.

   3. The process of stretching or spreading metals as by
      hammering, or, as in forming wire from rods or tubes and
      cups from sheet metal, by pulling them through dies.

   4. (Textile Manuf.) The process of pulling out and elongating
      the sliver from the carding machine, by revolving rollers,

         representation); as, drawing master or drawing-master,
