(p.130/#1) (Coda Lunga Stretta with the Left Foot Forward vs. Sword in Presence) If your enemy were to have his sword in presence with the right foot forward, as he may be in either porta di ferro stretta or coda lunga stretta; you will place yourself into coda lunga stretta with the left foot forward; and there you will make a feint of turning to strike his front foot with a pushed thrust having your left hand out on your left hip, and in this tempo you pass four fingers forward with your left foot, and as you are striking at his foot, he will without doubt push a thrust to your face in the same tempo; and there you will stay mindful that as your make the aforementioned feint, and he comes pushing a thrust, you will catch his sword with your left with supreme speed giving him immediately a thrust to to the chest or wherever you wish.
