(p.79/#1) (Coda Lunga Stretta vs. Coda Lunga Stretta) If you find your adversary settled in coda lunga stretta with his right foot forward, and you are settled in the same manner; there you will withdraw your right foot, throwing a stocatta trivillata to his sword hand; and then you will subsequently pull your left foot near the right allowing the sword to go into coda lunga lunga; and then with all possible speed, you will pass your right foot forward, feinting an imbrocatta to his face, but will in fact make a half turn of your hand and push a thrust to the right side of his chest; and as he goes to defend himself from this thrust, you will without delay pass your right foot forward throwing a mandritto fendente to his face and his chest and his sword arm 36 , the cut ending in porta di ferro larga; and then you will withdraw your right foot backwards setting yourself into coda lunga stretta.
