(p.235/#2) (Sword and Targa) (Porta di Ferro Alta vs. Unstated) Remaining in porta di ferro alta with the right foot forward against your enemy, you will be able to gracefully touch his sword with your false edge; and subsequently passing your left foot forward, you will make a half turn of the hand pushing a punta ferma to the chest; and if he should make to defend himself against this in any manner, you will be able to jam the face of your targa into his sword hand for your defense, and then subsequently give him a mandritto to his shins; or instead of the mandritto to the shins, you may feint a mandritto to his legs, and as he goes to defend against this you will throw the mandritto to his head; after that for your defense you will pass your left foot back, going with the sword and targa together into guardia di faccia, passing your right foot back and settling yourself into coda lunga stretta.
