(p.257/#3) (Sword vs. Opposite Handed) (Porta di Ferro Larga vs. Any) If you should find yourself again in porta di ferro larga with your right foot forward against your enemy, and he in whatever guard he prefers, and and should he throw some attack you will be able to defend against it with a rising falso, and then immediately passing your left foot towards his left side, you will be able to turn a rising roverso ridoppio that goes up high and ends in coda lunga lunga, pulling the right foot near the left; and note that if he does not throw some attack, you may perform the same attack as described above then subsequently you will be able to pass your right foot forward giving him a rising falso traversato to his sword hand and to the aforementioned sword which will not pass guardia di faccia, then giving him subsequently a roverso to the face and to the sword arm that descends into coda lunga larga; and if he should think to attack you somehow, you will withdraw your right foot back, striking his hand with a mandritto that descends into cinghiara porta di ferro larga; and here, whether or not he chooses to attack you you will pass your right foot forward lifting a rising falso to his sword hand or to his sword that does not go much past guardia di faccia; and subsequently you will give him a mandritto to the face, or to the sword arm that descends into porta di ferro larga; and then for your defense you will withdraw the right foot back, giving him a roverso traversato to the sword hand that descends into coda lunga larga.
