(p.90#2) (Coda Lunga Stretta vs. Any) Finding your adversary in what stance he wants, you will be settled in coda lunga stretta with your right foot forward; and there you will pass your left foot traversing towards his right side, throwing a mandritto to his sword hand that ends in cinghiara porta di ferro larga, all exposed so that the enemy has a way to strike you with whatever attack he wants; be mindful that in the tempo that the enemy throws his attack you will pull your right foot behind the left, giving him a mezzo roverso to his sword hand that ends in coda lunga larga; then you will pass a little forward with your left foot throwing a stoccata trivillata to his sword hand; then you will throw the left foot near the right and allow the sword to go into coda lunga larga; and then you will allow the left foot to go back forward, feinting a thrust to the left side of his chest, and as he goes to defend against it, you will pass the right foot forward making a sfalsata of your sword under his, driving an imbrocatta to his chest; and then immediately you will withdraw your right foot somewhat back throwing a mezzo mandritto to his sword hand that does not go past cinghiara porta di ferro stretta.
