(p.83/#3) (Counter to play #106) The counter of the above named attack will be that when your enemy throws the imbrocatta to your sword hand, you being in what placement you want; you will not move but when his sword ends in porta di ferro larga, inviting your attack; then if your left foot is forward you will pass your right foot forward throwing an imbrocatta to his chest or to the sword arm; and if you are set with the right foot forward you will step somewhat forward with the right foot also throwing an imbrocatta as is said above, all to the end that he can follow with his plan; and as he will pass his left foot forward to beat your sword towards your left side with the true edge of his sword, you in that tempo will withdraw the right leg back, dropping your sword into cinghiara porta di ferro larga; and as he will now pass his right foot forward to throw an overhand imbrocatta at you, there you will defend with the true edge of your sword in the manner of guardia di testa, doing it in such a way that the sword ends in guardia di lioncorno; and then you will pass your right foot forward throwing an overhand imbrocatta to his face or his sword arm, doing it such that the sword stops in porta di ferro larga.
