(p.52/#3) (Porta di Ferro Stretta vs. Porta di Ferro Stretta) If your enemy is set with the sword settled in porta di ferro stretta with the right foot forward, you yourself will be set in the same arrangement, and there you will pass the left foot traversing towards his right side, and in this passing you will make a falso and roverso, such a falso and roverso goes not to wound the enemy, but for disconcerting him, and for being able to then hit him with another attack, and therefore it is necessary that this falso and roverso be made wisely such that the sword needs to stop in coda lunga stretta, and the right leg needs to follow behind the left; and now you will heed in what fashion the enemy will have the point of the sword because if he should have it guarding outside your right side the at you he will make it necessary to use one mode and if he should have, the point guarding your left side it will suit to make another. But we propose, that he has his point guarding somewhat aslant towards your right side, then you will subsequently pass a great pass of the right foot forward driving the true edge of your sword onto that of your enemy, and pressing it somewhat towards the ground; and in this tempo you will, with all force, drive a thrust to his guts behind his sword; and if he throws himself somewhat back you will pass on with the left foot, seeking to make a presa to his sword with your left hand.
