When the adversary makes contact with your sword during an initial attack, ''don't immediately try to hit back, but take care to determine quickly whether he holds the sword strongly or gently.''

Smooth English from Latin

The aspect of the art which we call the war uses the wrappings, and it is shaped by the point from that place against four openings; certainly you will practice it [this aspect of the art] with this method:

  • If you would strike a winning stroke, taking its name from ire, and THEY intercept it, having lifted [your] shoulders, join the point of your sword above their sword toward the enemy at the upper opening on the left side.
  • Certainly, if they were to set that strength aside, remember to persist in the state of the twisting/turning inward, but also reverse the point below into the left side
  • And if the adversary would also set that off,then seek their lower opening on the right side with the point.
  • and if they would likewise counteract that, you, having lifted your sword into the left side, should send the tip against the enemy, seeking the upper right opening.
  • and so the enemy will have been goaded below and above by the technique of the war (or the campaign) if indeed you practice, having joined athletics truly with instruction.

Notes

  1. Meanings of räumen:
    1. a) vacates/abandons b) yields, makes room for, frees up, c) removes d) needs to remove
    2. remove the cream: unlikely
    3. whisper, spread rumors
    4. rhyme
  2. exceperit is the equivalent of 'versetzt'
  3. removerit is equivalent for 'setzt... ab'
  4. removeat is the equivalent for 'mit der versatzung'
  5. repellat is the equivalent for 'mit der versatzung'
  6. Based on comparison to the German, this line is missing its main verb which should probably be a form of torqueo
  7. We've read "iuxta" as the imperative of "iuxtare", but this is an uncommon verb; "iuxta" is most commonly an adverb or preposition meaning "near", in which case this sentence would read "If you would strike a winning stroke (taking its name from ire) against the enemy, and THEY intercept it, shoulders lifted, with the point of your sword next to and over their sword and against the enemy's upper opening on the left side."
  8. The Latin term 'militia' broadly covers war and campaign, to those who engage in them, soldiers (collectively) and armies, as well as aspects of courage, bravery, and military spirit, as well as 'any difficult work'. The latter is especially interesting, as that is the medieval meaning of the German word Krieg, which is only limited to meaning 'war' in the 17th century.
