(p.87/#2) (Coda Lunga Stretta with the Left Foot Forward vs. Any) Finding your enemy in what guard he wants, you will be set in coda lunga stretta with your left foot forward; and there you will throw a stoccata trivillata to the sword hand with the left foot forward, and so you will allow the sword to descend into coda lunga lunga; and if here he should think to strike you with some blow, you will throw a rising falso to his sword hand that does not pass guardia di faccia; and subsequently you will pass the right foot towards his left side pushing a thrust to his sword arm or sword hand, and with all possible speed you will throw another thrust to the chest, the left leg following somewhat behind the right; and if he should think to strike you with some blow, you will subsequently strike his sword hand or sword arm with a mezzo mandritto done such that the sword does not go past porta di ferro alta.
