Samuel Johnson's Dictionary
Brailsnoun
Sea term. Small ropes reeved through blocks, which are seized on either side the ties, a little off upon the yard; so that they come down before the sails of a ship, and are fastened at the skirt of the sail to the crengles. Their use is, when the sail is furled across, to hale up its bunt, that it may the more readily be taken up or let fall. John Harris
Dictionary of Nautical Terms
brails
Ropes passing through leading blocks on the hoops of the mizen-mast and gaff, and fastened to the outermost leech of the sail, in different places, to truss it close up as occasion requires; all trysails and several of the staysails also have brails.
