(p.110/#3) (Coda Lunga Larga with the Left Foot Forward vs. Sword in Presence) If your adversary is set with the sword in presence, you will be set in coda lunga larga with the left foot forward; and there you will throw a rising falso to his sword hand that does not pass guardia di faccia, and then you will immediately pass the right foot forward making a feint of turning a roverso to his right temple; and as he chooses to defend himself from this roverso, you will subsequently throw a rising falso to his sword hand and to his sword arm in the manner of a montante, and subsequently with all possible speed you will turn a mandritto tondo to his front leg or to his sword hand that goes to a manner of guardia sopra braccio, passing in this tempo somewhat forward with the right foot; and without any delay you will withdraw the right foot back throwing a roverso to his sword hand that descends into coda lunga larga.
