(p.108/#3) (Counter to #187) The counter to the above said attack is that finding yourself with the sword in presence and the right foot forward, being either in coda lunga stretta or porta di ferro stretta; you will be mindful that when he passes forward with his right foot to feint the falso, you will make a show of going to defend yourself; and as he goes to thrust into your face, you will make a sfalsata of your sword under his, beating his thrust towards his right side with the true edge of your sword, and in this tempo you will pass the right foot somewhat forward, throwing a roverso to his face that does not pass coda lunga stretta, retiring then the right foot back for your safety.
