(p.109/#1) (Coda Lunga Stretta with the Left Foot Forward vs. Any) Finding your enemy in any guard that he wants, you will be set in coda lunga stretta with the left foot forward; and there you will throw a stoccata trivillata with the left foot forward, pulling the left foot near the right, and the sword will go then into coda lunga lunga; then you will throw an imbrocatta to his sword arm and you will allow the sword to turn as though throwing a tramazzone, passing immediately forward with the right foot feinting an imbrocatta roversa to the face, and as he goes to defend himself from this imbrocatta, you will subsequently strike the front leg with a roverso that does not pass coda lunga stretta; then going immediately with the sword into guardia di testa for your safety and giving him then subsequently a mandritto to the face, or to the leg as you prefer; or if you do not want to strike him with a mandritto, you may instead throw an imbrocatta to the chest; and note if the above-mentioned roverso should fall into coda lunga larga, you immediately will throw a rising falso to the sword hand that goes to a manner of guardia sopra braccio, then immediately withdrawing the right foot back, throwing a roverso to his sword hand that descends in coda lunga larga.
