(p.258/#4) (Sword vs. Opposite Handed) (Coda Lunga Larga with the Left Foot Forward vs. (See Play)) If you have in mind of want to take your enemy's sword you will place yourself in coda lunga larga with the left foot forward well below the body all exposed, going then immediately on because he will be compelled for these two respects: the first for seeing you open, the other for your going under, of throwing at you some attack to strike you, this done now that you will go under in this without leaving your guard one iota, your right foot pushing the left forward, be mindful to defend this attack gallantly going with the sword into guardia di testa, then in this same tempo you will pass your right foot forward somewhat towards his right side; and now with your left hand you will subsequently from the outside take his sword striking him then wherever you prefer.
