(p.198/#3) (Sword and Large Buckler) (Coda Lunga Stretta vs. Coda Lunga Stretta) Finding yourself again, and your enemy in coda lunga stretta with the right foot forward, you will be able to cunningly, and with the greatest speed push a stoccata trivillata to his face or to his sword hand stepping somewhat forward with your right foot; and then that done, you will be able to withdraw the right foot back near the left turning the sword into coda lunga stretta, and there stepping forward with the right foot again feinting with a similar stoccata, and now, that he will want to defend against this in some way, you will immediately withdraw the sword hand somewhat back, pushing without delay and with the greatest speed to his gut beneath his buckler, or to the sword hand, and next you will withdraw your right foot back, to go with the sword and the buckler into guardia di faccia.
