(p.144/#3) (Porta di Ferro Larga vs. Coda Lunga Stretta or Porta di Ferro Stretta) Finding your enemy in coda lunga stretta or porta di ferro stretta with his right foot forward, you will yourself be in coda lunga larga with the right foot forward; and so you will feint a rising falso to the sword, and as soon as he should make to defend, you will immediately pass with your right foot somewhat forward, turning a tramazzone to his sword hand that descends into porta di ferro larga; but if he should respond here with some attack you will defend yourself with the false edge of your sword, and pass subsequently with your right foot somewhat forward, throwing at him with great speed a mandritto to the face or, to the sword arm, that descends into porta di ferro larga; then withdraw your right foot back at him you will be able to strike a roverso to his sword hand that descends into coda lunga larga.
