    pedem or pedes tollere, extollere (ad concubitum),

    subsellii,

    Auct. Her. 4, 55, 68:

    pes argenteus (mensae),

    Juv. 11, 128.—
    B.
    Pes veli, a rope attached to a sail for the purpose of setting it to the wind, a sheet:

    sive utrumque Juppiter Simul secundus incidisset in pedem,

    Cat. 4, 19:

    pede labitur aequo,

    i. e. before the wind, with the wind right aft, Ov. F. 3, 565:

    pedibus aequis,

    Cic. Att. 16, 6 init.; cf. also the passage quoted above from Sen. Ben. 2, 34, 2; and:

    prolato pede, transversos captare Notos,

    id. Med. 322.— Hence, facere pedem, to veer out one sheet, to take advantage of a side wind, to haul the wind: una omnes fecere pedem;

    pariterque sinistros, Nunc dextros solvere sinus,

    Verg. A. 5, 830:
