(p.54/#3) (Coda Lunga Stretta vs. Coda Lunga Larga (R)) If your adversary is set in coda lunga larga with the right foot forward, and you are opposite him, then you will be set in coda lunga stretta with the right foot forward; and there you will feint a thrust to make him bring his sword into presence, and as soon as he lifts his sword to defend against said thrust, you will subsequently will make a sfalsata of your sword under his, not allowing his sword to touch yours; and presently you will pass the left foot towards his right side driving the true edge of your sword onto his; and so in the same tempo you will push a thrust to the chest behind his sword; and make every effort of knocking it somewhat towards the ground as powerfully as you are able in order to make it easier to strike him with the aforementioned thrust; and you will drive the right shoulder as far forward as possible with the right foot following somewhat behind the left.
