(p.96/#1) (Counter to (p.95/#4)) The counter of this attack will be thus; that when you are guardia di lioncorno with your right foot forward then you will be mindful that as the enemy comes to join his true edge to yours, you will withdraw the right foot back, allowing him to come forward; as he throws the roverso to your head you will immediately pass your right foot forward defending yourself with the sword in guardia di testa; and then you will immediately pass your left foot forward making a presa with your left hand to his sword, giving him immediately a thrust to his flank; or if you do not like this counter, be advised that as he throws a roverso you will withdraw the left foot back throwing a mezzo mandritto to his sword hand that ends in porta alta di ferro.
