(p.134/#1) (Coda Lunga Larga with the Left Foot Forward vs. Sword in Presence) If your enemy has his sword in presence with the right foot forward, you will place yourself in coda lunga larga with the left foot forward; and there you will throw a rising falso to his sword hand that does not go over his sword, and in that tempo you will step somewhat forward with the left foot, and then you will bring the sword back into coda lunga larga, bringing the left book back somewhat near the right; and note this falso goes not to wound the enemy, but only to incite him to throw some attack at you and after you have felt him out with this falso, now you will be mindful that should he throw some attack, with you will nimbly change the sword into your left hand in such a way that it will be difficult for the enemy to notice, by placing your left hand upon the pommel when you feel him out with your falso to his hand, because in this way it will be convenient to quickly take your sword into your left hand, and so now defending his attack with the left hand, you will throw a roverso traversato to his sword hand passing somewhat forward the left foot in that tempo the sword descending then into coda lunga larga; and should he now attack you, then you will immediately throw a rising falso to his sword hand that will go in the manner of guardia sopra braccio; and then subsequently you will withdraw the left foot back, throwing a roverso to his sword hand retire the left foot back that descends into coda lunga larga; then you will take your sword back into your right hand, settling yourself into porta di ferro stretta. You have also of to know that after that that you have made head against your enemy with the falso above said in the previous paragraph, still having the sword in your right hand, and after that you have accordingly changed the sword into your left hand, and the enemy now throwing at you some attack, you will defend yourself from this blow with a falso that does not pass guardia di faccia, stepping somewhat forward with the left foot in that tempo, and subsequently you will throw a mandritto to his face that will stop in porta di ferro larga; and if he responds to you here with some attack, in defense against the incoming attack you will throw a roverso traversato to his sword hand that will stop in coda lunga larga, and then you will immediately throw at his hand a rising falso that goes to a manner of guardia sopra braccio; after that for your security you will withdraw the left foot back giving him a roverso to the sword hand that ends in coda lunga larga.
