(p.94/#3) (Coda Lunga Stretta with the Left Foot Forward vs. Coda Lunga Stretta or Porta di Ferro Stretta) Finding your enemy in coda lunga stretta or porta di ferro stretta with his right foot forward, you will be placed in coda lunga stretta with your left foot forward; and there you will pass your right foot forward somewhat towards his left side and in this tempo you will feint a thrust to his *** right side and as he goes to defend himself from this thrust, you will feint a roverso to his front leg, and note that this roverso goes not to wound him, but to disconcert him; so that as he moves his sword or if he does not move his sword, you will push a thrust behind his sword to the left side of his chest with your sword going into guardia di intrare and your left foot needs to follow somewhat behind the right.
