'''Paulus Hector Mair''' (Paulsen Hektor Mair, Paulus Hector Meyer; 1517 – 1579) was a [[century::16th century]] German aristocrat, civil servant, and fencer. He was born in 1517 to a wealthy and influential Augsburg patrician family. In his youth, he likely received training in fencing and grappling from the masters of Augsburg fencing guild, and early on developed a deep fascination with fencing treatises. He began his civil service as a secretary to the Augsburg City Council; by 1541, Mair was the City Treasurer, and in 1545 he also took on the office of Master of Rations.

'''Paulus Hector Mair''' (Paulsen Hektor Mayr, Paulus Hector Meyer; 1517 – 1579) was a [[century::16th century]] German aristocrat, civil servant, and fencer. He was born in 1517 to a wealthy and influential Augsburg patrician family. In his youth, he likely received training in fencing and grappling from the masters of Augsburg fencing guild, and early on developed a deep fascination with fencing treatises. He began his civil service as a secretary to the Augsburg City Council; by 1541, Mair was the city treasurer, and in 1545 he also took on the office of Master of Rations.
  
Mair's martial background is unknown, but as a citizen of a free city he would have had military obligations whenever the city went to war, and as a member of a patrician family he likely served in the cavalry. He was also an avid collector of fencing treatises and other literature on military history. Like his contemporary [[Joachim Meÿer]], Mair believed that the Medieval martial arts were being forgotten, and he saw this as a tragedy, idealizing the arts of fencing as a civilizing and character-building influence on men. Where Meÿer sought to update the traditional fencing systems and apply them to contemporary weapons of war and defense, Mair was more interested in preserving historical teachings intact. Thus, some time in the latter part of the 1540s he commissioned what would become the most extensive compendium of German fencing treatises ever made, a massive two-volume manuscript compiling virtually every fencing treatise he could access. He retained famed artist [[Jörg Breu|Jörg Breu the Younger]] to create the illustrations for the text,<ref>Breu is not listed in the Augsburg tax records in 1542-3; given Mair's youth, he most likely hired Breu between his return in 1544 and his death in 1547.</ref> and hired two Augsburg fencers to pose for the illustrations.<ref>Hils 1985, pp 197-201.</ref> This project was extraordinarily expensive and took at least four years to complete. Ultimately, three copies of this compendium were produced, each more extensive than the last; the first ([[Opus Amplissimum de Arte Athletica (MSS Dresd.C.93/C.94)|MSS Dresden C.93/C.94]]) was written in [[Early New High German]], the second and most artistically ambitious ([[Opus Amplissimum de Arte Athletica (Cod.icon. 393)|Cod.icon. 393]]) in [[New Latin]], and the third and final version ([[Opus Amplissimum de Arte Athletica (Cod.10825/10826)|Cod. 10825/10826]]) incorporated both languages.

Beginning in the 1540s, Mair began purchasing older fencing manuscripts, some from fellow collector [[Lienhart Sollinger]] (a [[Freifechter]] who lived in Augsburg for many years) and others from auctions. Perhaps most significant of all of his acquisitions was the partially-completed treatise of [[Antonius Rast]], a Master of the Long Sword and three-time captain of the [[Marxbrüder]] fencing guild. The venerable master left in incomplete when he died in 1549, and Mair ultimately produced a complete fencing manual ([[Rast Fechtbuch (Reichsstadt "Schätze" Nr. 82)|Reichsstadt "Schätze" Nr. 82]]) based on his notes. Ultimately, he owned over a dozen fencing manuscripts over the course of his life, including the following:

Mair not only spent incredible sums of money on his fencing interests, but generally lead a lavish lifestyle and maintained his political influence with expensive parties and other entertainments for the burghers and patricians of Augsburg. This habit of living far beyond his means for decades exhausted his family's wealth, eventually leading him to sell the Latin version of his fencing manuscript (netting the princely sum of 800 florins) and finally to begin embezzling money from the Augsburg city coffers. This embezzlement was not discovered for many years (or perhaps was overlooked due to the favor his parties garnered), until finally in 1579 a disgruntled assistant reported him to the Augsburg City Council and provoked an audit of his books. Mair was arrested, tried, and hanged as a thief at the age of 62. After Mair's death, his effects (including his library) were sold at auction to recoup some of the funds he had embezzled.

Whether viewed as an unwise scholar who paid the ultimate price for his art or an ignoble thief who violated his city's trust, Mair remains one of the most influential figures in the history of Kunst des Fechtens. By completing the fencing manual of Antonius Rast, Mair gave us valuable insight into the [[Nuremberg Group|Nuremberg fencing tradition]]; his own works are impressive on both an artistic and practical level, and his extensive commentary on the uncaptioned treatises in his collection serves to make potentially useful training aids out of what would otherwise be mere curiosities. Finally, in purchasing so many important fencing treatises he succeeded in preserving them for future generations; they were purchased by the fabulously wealthy Fugger family after his death and ultimately passed to the [[Universitätsbibliothek Augsburg|Augsburg University Library]], where they remain to this day.

The Dresden version contains the fewest devices and artwork most reminiscent of Breu's style, and appears therefore to be the original copy. The Munich adds additional plays and sections on top of the Dresden's contents, and the Vienna likewise augments the Munich, suggesting that this is likely order of creation; conversely, the Dresden has no unique content, and the only unique plays in the Munich are in the section on jousting. To give a visual sense of this evolution of the work, the Dresden illustrations are used wherever possible; the Munich illustrations appear only in those plays that are omitted from the Dresden, and the Vienna in those that are unique to that work.

'''And while many''' of the learned say that this art of the knightly sport, as other arts beside, must have come among men to influence[?] '''their appetites and pleasure, from above, i.e. from God and celestial influence of the stars, as is well believable. Besides this, some say that ''Pollux'', who was honoured by the Romans, was an instigator of this honourable art; others would attribute the honour of such invention to ''Mercury''. But both these statements must be found somewhat obscure and uninstructive from the fact that they do not explain what use or profit they would have made from this art, or which lords they took as their disciples that would have learned the art from them and in turn passed it on.

Which instruction said king ''Theseus'' took to heart and in consideration of that this knightly art and exercise of fencing in times of peace may be an honourable and manly exercise for the young, but in times of distress and danger may serve and succeed towards the fatherland's honour, advantage and prosperity, he put belief in ''Probas'' and himself together with some of the most noble of his court, undertook it to learn this knightly art of fencing, to which end ''Probas'' was highly assiduous.

And thus the honourable art of fencing prospered from the cause that each [practitioner] '''was found that much more competent and able to support the fatherland in its need. Said king ''Theseus'' did build, to considerable cost, many sumptuous houses dedicated for the exercise of this art, in Athens and elsewhere in his realm, which was the beginning of the general [systematic] '''tuition in fencing.

And thus the honourable art of fencing prospered from the cause that each [practitioner] was found that much more competent and able to support the fatherland in its need. Said king ''Theseus'' did build, to considerable cost, many sumptuous houses dedicated for the exercise of this art, in Athens and elsewhere in his realm, which was the beginning of the general [systematic] tuition in fencing. These events under the reign of the Athenian king ''Theseus'', who according to the reckoning of the ''Urspergian''<ref name="Urspergensis">''Chronicon Abbatis Urspergensis'', the Chronicle of Burchard of Ursberg (13th century), printed in Augsburg 1515.</ref> reigned for thirty years, took place and occurred approximately in the year 1224 before the birth of our saviour Jesus Christ, and from this circumstance it follows that this art, which has been founded by kings, and by many of royal and noble kin and blood besides, which served to themselves as a noble exercise and towards honour, advantage and necessity for the fatherland, may well and truly be called a noble and knightly sport.
  
 
'''But what zeal''' and considerable cost was invested by the ancients in the knightly art of fencing, and in what earnest and honourable reputation its exercise was held, furthermore what high persons undertook to learn this art, and to what good consequence this art served in all lands and kingdoms, this I will also tell and describe.

'''In addition, the ancients''', and especially the Greeks, did have such desire and love for the knightly exercise, that they did forego any kind of sweet food or drink several days before they would fence, likewise the lust of women besides all else that weakens the body and makes for heavy breathing, and did peruse such foods, as meat and other kinds, as do strengthen the body. On this matter did the learned ''medici'', and especially the most famous ''Galen'',<ref name="Galenus">Claudius Galenus of Pergamum (AD 131 – 201)</ref> repeatedly and artfully discuss, whether austerity and abstinence or the practice of fencing would profit more for the life of man. Also Saint Paul does report such an example in his epistle where he says, you see that those who would fence and fight over a transient honour or treasure are wont to forego all lust, as if he would say, why do not you the same, as pious Christians who are fighting not for an earthly but for a heavenly honour in this world.<ref name="Paulus">This may be in reference to 2 Timothy 2:4, rendered by Luther (1522) as: ''Niemant streyttet vnnd flicht sich ynn der narung geschefft, auff das er gefalle dem, der yhn zum streytter auffgenomen hat'' "None who would fight does meddle in the business of sustenance, so that he may please him who employed him as a fighter". Now Luthers ''narung'' "sustenance, nutrition, food" offers itself to an interpretation of "gluttony; carnal pleasure", but it translates ''pragmateiai biou'', meaning "the pragmatics of life", i.e. "everyday business". c.f. Tyndale (1526), who has "No man that warreth, entangleth himself with worldly business, and that because he would please him that hath chosen him to be a soldier"; Dresden has "temporal" (''zeitlich'') rather than "transient" (''zergenglich'').</ref> And therefore all those who love this knightly art do well to consider that in those times there were no drunken and immodest but sober, apt and most artful fencers. Also, it is rarely found in writing that among the ancients fencing was undertaken out of envy or hatred, as in our times regrettably occurs often, but out of love and artfulness. After the ancients did chastise themselves as they were expecting the day of fencing, they and the weapons with which they would fence were transported in all honesty on wagons to the fencing place or ''Theatrum'', and for them the prizes and treasures were painted in fine likeness and carried before them, and also beforehand publicly posted on the market-place, and thus made known to the common man. This custom is attributed by the historiographers with great praise to ''Terentius Lucanus'', who on three consecutive days did permanently have thirty naked fencers on the field, and when the fencers, masters and disciples entered the fencing place they put down their weapons in proper order (as is still the custom today); then the names of all fencers were written on pieces of paper and then with great assiduity the lot was drawn arbitrarily, and those two who were drawn by the lot then did have to fight most artfully and honourably for the treasure. For this, each of the fencers did most assiduously invoke their god, one ''Hercules'', the other ''Mercury'', yet others ''Pollux'' and ''Castor'', and so forth, and pray that the lot would pair them with good and artful fencers, and not immodest ones who were not well experienced in the art. All of this does illustrate that the ancients did fence above all for art and knightly virtue and honour than for any other things, for which reason, for the later generations of fencers and for the honour of the knightly art, the fight-schools as they were held and the promenading houses and halls of the rich were painted in their likeness, and those who held them, and those who won the prize were finely depicted, and the highest prize in this was retained by the freedman of emperor ''Nero'' who at ''Antium'' at the great imperial palace and promenade did most artfully and gracefully depict the likeness of the fencing-schools and fencers.<ref name="Antium">This is a reference to Pliny, ''Nat. Hist.'' 30.32: "When a freedman of Nero was giving a gladiatorial show at Antium, the public porticoes were covered with paintings, so we are told, containing life-like portraits of all the gladiators and assistants. This portraiture of gladiators has been the highest interest in art for many centuries now, but it was Gaius Terentius who began the practice of having pictures made of gladiatorial shows and exhibited in public; in honour of his grandfather who had adopted him he provided thirty pairs of Gladiators in the Forum for three consecutive days, and exhibited a picture of the matches in the Grove of Diana."</ref>

All of this does illustrate that the ancients did fence above all for art and knightly virtue and honour than for any other things, for which reason, for the later generations of fencers and for the honour of the knightly art, the fight-schools as they were held and the promenading houses and halls of the rich were painted in their likeness, and those who held them, and those who won the prize were finely depicted, and the highest prize in this was retained by the freedman of emperor ''Nero'' who at ''Antium'' at the great imperial palace and promenade did most artfully and gracefully depict the likeness of the fencing-schools and fencers.<ref name="Antium">This is a reference to Pliny, ''Nat. Hist.'' 30.32: "When a freedman of Nero was giving a gladiatorial show at Antium, the public porticoes were covered with paintings, so we are told, containing life-like portraits of all the gladiators and assistants. This portraiture of gladiators has been the highest interest in art for many centuries now, but it was Gaius Terentius who began the practice of having pictures made of gladiatorial shows and exhibited in public; in honour of his grandfather who had adopted him he provided thirty pairs of Gladiators in the Forum for three consecutive days, and exhibited a picture of the matches in the Grove of Diana."</ref>

'''So did also the learned''' philosophers write about this knightly art, and the same were not ashamed to learn its, and among them ''Pythagoras'', who was held a good fencer, was the foremost, as he did win the prize with his artful fencing at the celebration of the 48th ''Olympiad''. Likewise did do many other excellent philosophers, without necessarily naming them all. So does ''Marcus Tullius Cicero'', the Roman mayor and eventually administrator of the entire Roman empire write on the praise of fencing [T. q. folio.125.] '''I consider and trust entirely that nobody at all can be counted among the number of the learned orators who were not well versed and experienced in all arts that are knightly and even if we do not employ them in speaking, nor is it possible to discern this in us, if we are exercised in knightly sports, but the agility and the bearing of the body does concord and correspond with the agility of the voice, both in cheerful and in lamentable topics, such that it appears all the more agreeable to the listener. This is confirmed by the most learned orator ''Quintilianus'' who says that the persons who are given to praise and do not have contempt for the knightly sport of fencing and takes this as the cause that the same have great advantage and furtherance in the art of being well-spoken due to their agility ''Anacharsis''<ref name="Anacharsis">Anacharsis the Scythian, according to Herodotus (4.46, 76 f.) brother of the Scythian king Saulinos; attributed to him are inventions such as the anchor, bellows and pottery wheel. He was slain by his brother after he returned from a journey to Greece and began to advocate Greek culture to his countrymen. He is sometimes counted as one of the Seven Sages of Athens. Among a number of letters attributed to him is one addressed to the Lydian king Croesus.</ref> who lived at the time of king ''Croesus'' in Lydia, at the time when Rome had stood for 194 years, wrote that he did greatly marvel at how the Greeks were such stern judges while the fencers did bear themselves so heartily and well with[?] '''open spaces, houses, prizes, treasures and highest praise, as if he would say that the Greeks do well uphold the law and give to each man his due, to one his due praise and to the other his due punishment. Many more similar pronouncements furthering the honour of fencing could be mentioned, but as I feel that no amount would suffice for those who disparage this art, it should suffice for the present time.

'''The virility of''' the Greeks and especially of the Lacedaemonians, citizens of the most famous city of Sparta are very well known to anyone acquainted with history. [Pluta: fol.75.] '''Furthermore, their knightly virtues before the city of Troy, and in many other places, are evident. ''Plutarch'' writes much praise of their manhood in his ''Aphotegmata''<ref name="Plutarch">''Regum et imperatorum apophthegmata'' ("Sayings of kings and emperors") in Plutarch's ''Moralia''.</ref> and says that these Spartans had the custom that whenever they went to war against their enemies, their kings would always have to go ahead in the foremost rank and be the first to attack the enemy with manly courage, and one of their best knights would, if the king had earlier won a treasure such as a crown or a wreath in a fencing-school, carry this finely adorned in front of him, so as to show that their king was equipped with a spirit of manhood, and they would have other expert and honest warriors with them. For this they would contest all the more manfully and artfully for the treasures in the fencing-schools, in order to gain much honour and be placed next to the king in war and with honest praise and courage would move against the enemy in the front of the army. They did also disdain the best positions, such as fortifications, walls and trenches, and against these did much praise knightly manhood. ''Agis'', the second king of the Lacedaemonians, as at one time he moved on the city of Corinth, saw that this same city was surrounded by strong, long walls and fortifications, and he said, alas, who are these women that have taken and occupy the fortified place, as if he would say that honest and doughty men should not have any regard for such strong fortification but in need should praise the courage of the heart and the honesty of the mind and the prowess of the fist and prefer them over all fortification. By such honesty this king ''Agis'' did honourably reign over the realm of the Spartans for fifty years and left it behind in good stability. [Apopht. fol.17.] '''''Agesilaus'' the sixth king of the Spartans was at one time asked why the city of Sparta was not protected and so ill equipped with walls and fortifications. To this the king answered and said, see these armed citizens, well-exercised in all knightly sports: these are the fortification and walls of the city of Sparta, by which he meant that virility is to be praised above all fortifications.

'''''Herodotus''''' writes in his seventh book, ''Polymnia'', how ''Xerxes'', the king of the Persians [and] '''Medes, out of presumption and prompted by an exiled Greek named ''Demarathus'' did incite a handsome great war on water and on land against the Greeks. But when king ''Xerxes'' with his people reached the borders of the Greeks at a pass called the ''Thermopyle'', he ordered the most renowned and strongest men and captains of the Persians in great number to take that same place as an entrance to the land of ''Greece''. Before that, the Greeks had occupied that place with three hundred Spartan citizens who according to their custom had with them their king ''Leonidas'', and they did wait there with all avidity of denying the enemy entry and held good and careful watch with all knightly experience and preparation against the Persians. As the Persians arrived at this said place, they found such a warlike and manly opposition on the part of the Greek garrison that they required many numerous attacks and attempts, and they lost a notable number, namely up to 20,000 among whom two kings, three princes and many of the Persian nobility from the legion known as the immortals along with their best warriors.

And he did suffer such great damage from these three-hundred men at the said place, that he did many times rue the war which he had ventured against the Greeks, and it did often cause him to sigh.

And as the pass had been taken, king Xerxes and a number of his captains came on the battlefield and out of curiosity wanted to inspect the Spartans, and found them lying on their bellies, and not their backs, and their faces were hewn most grievously, he did praise them most fittingly, even though they were his enemies, saying, O how blessed is this land that generates many such exercised honest men. And inquiring after the occupation and disport favoured by such men, he was answered that they were never idle and of great frugality. Inquiring further for what reward they would do such, the Arcadians replied that they would ever exercise themselves in fencing-schools and duelling-spaces, on horseback and on foot, and those who excelled there would be honoured by a wreath made from oil-palm, which among them was held as the highest praise.

'''''Herodotus''''' writes in his seventh book, ''Polymnia'', how ''Xerxes'', the king of the Persians [and] Medes, out of presumption and prompted by an exiled Greek named ''Demarathus'' did incite a handsome great war on water and on land against the Greeks. But when king ''Xerxes'' with his people reached the borders of the Greeks at a pass called the ''Thermopyle'', he ordered the most renowned and strongest men and captains of the Persians in great number to take that same place as an entrance to the land of ''Greece''. Before that, the Greeks had occupied that place with three hundred Spartan citizens who according to their custom had with them their king ''Leonidas'', and they did wait there with all avidity of denying the enemy entry and held good and careful watch with all knightly experience and preparation against the Persians. As the Persians arrived at this said place, they found such a warlike and manly opposition on the part of the Greek garrison that they required many numerous attacks and attempts, and they lost a notable number, namely up to 20,000 among whom two kings, three princes and many of the Persian nobility from the legion known as the immortals along with their best warriors.

Of these and comparable deeds of honour that have their origin and source in the knightly exercises, as have occurred both among the Greeks and the Romans, there would be much more to tell. But it would seem to me to become over-much and so as to not displease the reader I will forbear.

Such testimony would he who would carry arms need to present at the following assembly and diet. Then the authorities or his closest friends would gird him with his weapon and on his neck hang a shield, congratulate him, and henceforth he would be declared [a free man] '''of his province. In warfare and battle they had this custom, that they would take with them their wives and children, even those still in the cradle, and they must prepare and serve food and drink for the men, oil, try, bandage and treat their wounds and they then showed their wounds to their mothers and wives, who felt no abhorrence therefrom, but gave much praise for them. And when they fought a battle against their enemies, the wives and children must keep nearby, so that the men could hear the weeping of their little children, and the wives would shout and admonish their men to be brave and keen and not to flee, fighting not just for their country and people but also for their wives and children. This did often contribute to their victory, as ''Tacitus'' reports. For this reason they conducted their marriage according to the following manner. None could take a wife other than he was of grown age, and likewise the virgins must be of proper age, resulting in great, tall, strong people, and as they were joined, they practiced the custom that the wife would bring no dowry to the man, neither money nor property, but for a sword, which she gave to him for the purpose that he must use it to protect her, her children, and the fatherland. The man on the other hand must have a certain property, which however did not include money, or silken garment or clothes, with which he might adorn and bedeck the bride, but he must own two heads of cattle and an ox, joined in a yoke, a saddled horse a pavise or shield, a hewing-knife and a thrusting-spear. If he had these, the bride was given in his hand. This was all her marriage-portion, dowry, morning-gift, wreath and ring, hand-fasting and wedding-feast, church-going and consecration. The closest friends would inspect all the mentioned pieces, and if they were good, they were satisfied and wished them happiness and fertility in birth, and they were joined in that hour and the marriage was concluded. But the significance and meaning of these pieces was that just as the cattle under the yoke the couple must never part, in joy or sorrow, in war or otherwise, but they must live and lie together, journey and travel, and keenly dare all things, which was signified by the saddled horse. Also, the sword, shield, knife and spear must be kept by the wife in the event of the man's death, so that she might pass to her sons and children their father's marriage-portion at the proper time, and it would be kept and passed on even to the third generation.

'''From the above''', kind fencer and reader, you may deduce to what extent this hard knightly exercise, kept so firmly by our ancient Germans, gave to Germany great liberty, honour and everlasting praise, and if things were still the same (concerning knightly and manly exercise) in German lands, and the knightly exercise were still held in such esteem, if vices such as usury, games, excessive eating and drinking, blaspheming, and disdain of all good arts besides other frivolity would be avoided and punished, what great profit, praise and honour for all of Germany would arise from this still in the present day.

'''Our ancient''' and pious Germans for a long time did not allow any foreign peddler to bring them foreign clothing and costly armour. Much less did they allow the manufacture or use of such among them, indeed they would have been ashamed to be seen straying from their German knightly character and custom. The Spartans slew one of their warriors for the only reason that he had somewhat changed his costume and had decorated his shield with purple silk, so much did foreign finery appall them. ''Charles'', the first of this name, known as the Great, who was properly a native German, and who first brought the rule of the Roman Empire to the Germans, was in the habit of always using the old German costume and none other for as long as he lived. Not more than on three instances, and this only to please the pope, did he don a Latin long mantle and broad slippers, which he later did often rue. Many of his princes and rich noblemen in the Italian wars had bought many costly ornaments and foreign garments. But as they put them on for a high festival and the emperor spotted them, he chided them loudly in front of all the people, mocked them and said, wherefore, wherefore you free Swabians and Franks, how you have utterly perverted yourselves and changed the German character and manner with foreign costume. Are you not now wearing on your bodies the clothing of those on whom you earlier so valiantly made war and forced to submit to you? What, would you also pervert your courage in like manner? Fie for the shame that you would put an everlasting blame on the German name, which is frightful to all other nations, with this transformation of yours. Look at yourself, how you are clothed. While your emperor, making allowance for the necessity of nature may cover himself. Why do you spend your gold and silver so as to corrupt your fathers for such shameful goods and clothing? Or do you no longer want to be free, but slaves like your enemies, whose clothes you are wearing? He then forced the same princes and noblemen to join him in assiduous hunting, both in summer and wintertime, and they must keep wearing the above described adornment and clothing, and he led them through great hedges and bushwork. After the hunt, he sat beside them at the fire, and their foreign clothing was torn by the branches, and the remaining tatters were singed and burned by the fire, such that they no longer offered protection. But the clothing of the pious emperor, which was a wolf's pelt, remained whole and fresh, and he mocked them greatly for what costly but useless clothes they had bought for a high price. This pious emperor ''Charles'' with his keen and firm courage and great heart did appear so frightening to all nations that all pagan kings feared him. The kings of Asia, Persia and Africa sent him messages and honoured him with gifts, and so much he attained with them that for him the Egyptian king did freely offer all of Jerusalem, along with the tomb of Christ, cleared of all pagans, to the Christians, just so he would keep him as a friend in his coalition. As he received the foreign messages he would always have his imperial sword on his side, plated with gold and hung on a golden knight's belt, and keep his hand on its pommel, so as to present his virility in this way. But how the clothing and armour of the ancients compare with the modern clothing of our time, is most easy to describe, as just within living memory they have undergone manifold changes, and still in the present day it is the custom that he who would just invent much novelty is held dear by the lords, so that it happens that manhood was changed to lust and vanity, and the praise of the Germans is failing, may that God would mend this.

As he received the foreign messages he would always have his imperial sword on his side, plated with gold and hung on a golden knight's belt, and keep his hand on its pommel, so as to present his virility in this way. But how the clothing and armour of the ancients compare with the modern clothing of our time, is most easy to describe, as just within living memory they have undergone manifold changes, and still in the present day it is the custom that he who would just invent much novelty is held dear by the lords, so that it happens that manhood was changed to lust and vanity, and the praise of the Germans is failing, may that God would mend this.
  
'''In what way however our''' Germans of these days follow and keep to the ancient Germans with regard to wine-drinking, games and exercise of knightly sport, their marriage and their meals, much could be written on this, as regrettably these things, when compared would present a very strange and awkward relation. The old, when they sat at their meals and symposia with their friends of high or low birth, would tell about the honest deeds of their ancestors, which was heard by the young, who took to heart to have desire and love towards the knightly art of fencing from which the most chivalrous gain praise. This with artful assiduity they exercised, and vices such as drinking, gambling, lust of women, vanity of clothing, they did forego. [Apoph: fol.721.] '''''Plutarch'' writes in his ''Apophtegmata'' that king ''Antigonus'' once asked the philosopher ''Menedemus'' if he should go drinking with a number of good fellows of his. ''Menedemus'' replied with a single phrase and said, ah, he is a king's son, by which he would indicate that the habit of wine-drinking does ill befit kings, princes and others of superior rank, meaning that there is other exercise and practice than drinking, to which to apply themselves would be more praisworthy and more profitable for them.

[Apoph: fol.312.] '''Likewise with Alexander the Great in his youth, at one time after he had been drinking wine and came back home to court, and his father Philip was told that his son Alexander had been drinking wine and had been singing very well, king Philipp was much displeased and chided him with these words, saying, are you not ashamed of yourself that you are so apt in drinking and singing, as if he would say, are you not a king's son, why are you dealing with such disdainful practice, are you proposing to support your kingdom by such frivolity after my death, or do you have such modest and childlike neighbours in the cities of Athens, Corinth, Argis, Corcica and others, so turn your mind to knightly arts, which serve for the development of your realm, honour and prosperity. At this instruction and scolding Alexander was so dismayed that he fast dedicated himself to knightly exercises, for which he gained later reward on many duelling-fields, and finally culminated in this, that within twelve years he subjugated and conquered the entire world with his knightly disposition. And truly, as I see it, if such knightly exercise according to the ancient manner and custom, in place of frivolous exercise, which over time have become so ubiquitous not just at royal or princely courts but also in the cities and everywhere and have displaced the exercise of good virtue, should again become well-established with both high and lower government, it would surely be highly profitable and useful for Germany and its degenerated prestige and dodgy reputation.

'''To the''' honour-loving custom of the knightly sport did the Roman emperor ''Henry'', the first of this name, wish to dedicate himself and lend support with all his appetite and desire, so that it would not decay, with the good and timely counsel of his princes and other lords. And he did establish the praiseworthy knightly sport of the tourney in the year 938 with the counsel of his princes and lords, adorned with twelve praiseworthy, honourable and Christian articles, so as to conserve honour, virtue and honesty in the Holy Empire of the German Nation. In this manner that none among the nobility, princes or counts, might participate in the knightly sport of the tourney if they violated the said twelve articles. Whoever did so was made the mockery of all princes, lords and ladies, put on the barriers, denuded of horse, weapons and armour, and publicly proclaimed a villain by the heralds, so that the princes, lords and noblemen were incited to good virtues and avoided many great vices.

By this harsh art, many a courageous hero's life was stolen surreptitiously and from afar, who would otherwise could well have saved and made for himself an immortal name of praise by virtue of his knightly spirit. Plutarch writes [Apoph. fol: 61.], as ''Archidamus'' for the first time set eyes on a catapult, which was first invented in Sicily, he began to lament with a loud voice, by the god Hercules, the courage of men will go to ruin, as if he would say, if more such and alike instruments were to be invented and used in war, there will be no longer any difference between bawdy, slothful and lusty, valiant men-at-arms. And thus will decay all knightly exercise, and in its place all cunning, sloth and vice will grow apace, and such has regretfully happened and is now in full fashion. From this it has truly been shown over time that there is a great scarcity of doughty, brave and strong men who have invented artillery, mortars, catapults or other such implements. ''Socrates'' was asked by the Spartans, where were all the strong heroes and doughty, well-versed warriors. Well, said Socrates, at Troy. By which he wanted to convey that as at Troy was held knightly exercise but that there the very nucleus of Greek knighthood, warring for honour, had over time fallen, so that at the present time there was only left a shadow or spectre of their former praise. What can I say, oftentimes men, and especially the Roman emperor and king, were trying to aid this knightly art, but this has never really taken hold, as we have amply set out above. Finally, the knightly art has come to this, that it developed the Brotherhood known as Saint Mark's, which the most eminent, most mighty Roman emperors of most praiseworthy memory, Frederick, the third of this name, Maximilian, and now the invincible prince, Charles himself all three nobly born of the old and praiseworthy house of Austria,<ref name="Frederick">the successive Habsburg emperors Frederick III, Maximilian I and Charles V, spanning the period since the supposed disestablishment of the knightly tournament and the establishment of the Brotherhood of St. Mark or ''Marxbrüder''.

Namely such that on every autumn's fair in Frankfurt, those who would be or become master of the sword, must first be examined in their masterly test in the iron-run[?] '''and golden art by ordained and sworn masters of Saint Mark's Brotherhood, and all that is pertinent to the knightly fencing with all virtue they must request and confirm their completion under oath. These [masters of the sword] '''may then hold schools as far as does extend the Roman Empire of the German Nation and may teach to other men on their request the proper manner of the sword. But for two reasons this exercise is held in low regard, the first, that gamblers, drunkards, usurers and lovers of beautiful women have been given much room in the highest places, such as princely courts and in the chief cities of the empire, and knightly art and exercise may not thrive due to them, but must always stay hidden behind the door, and the second, that numerous masters of the sword and otherwise masters, also Freifechter and numerous other fencers, to their own damage and disadvantage and that of the praiseworthy ancient art, act ineptly and ignominiously, foster envy and hatred in their fencing in schools, such that the young would hold the old in contempt at the fencing-school, and force on them their wantonness, and in addition abuse themselves of too much wine, from which results much frivolous discord, much to the chagrin of the authorities, and causes a considerable decline in the noble art. All this then serves more the extirpation than to the taking root of the noble and ancient knightly art, as pains me at the heart, and I would rather (in the interest of the noble art) hide it by my silence than to report it, especially as these vices are also hardly conductive to civil order. So I would gladly instruct all pious honest fencers to the profit and benefit of the fatherland, in the hope that they should be rewarded for it by everlasting praise.

[Apoph. fol: .7.] ''''''''Plutarch''''' writes in his courtly aphorisms that the excellent scholar ''Carillus'' was asked, which were the most praiseworthy cities, and he answered to this effect, that those cities were the best and safest, in which the citizens do not quarrel for ambition or authority, but one desires to excel the other by means of manly virtue (but without rioting) and would gladly be the foremost in the furtherance of communal benefit. For this the gods of the Spartans were all conceived as wearing armour and carrying arms, as if they wanted to convey that even the gods themselves had enmity and hatred for sloth and idleness. But [now] '''all would defend lust and sloth and pretend that one could still rule and sustain a land and people, even though the knightly sport of fencing is no longer as much in fashion as it used to be in the beginning, because this art would also produce insolent, proud and foolhardy men, and for this reason should be closely supervised. To these I know no short answer, then it is true, that a regrettably large number of men who undertake to learn the knightly art within their own insolent wantonness, and that for this reason, they use their force to commit outrage and in anger cause injury to other men, as happened in Rome at one time as two fencing-masters did attach to themselves a great number of fencers and rioted in Italy causing so much damage to the common man that the mayors of Rome led the whole army against them, fought them, and had to exterminate them. Those, who are such men, I do not deem worthy of being named honest fencers, nor are they in no way worthy of any praise, and I do not wish to publish this work of honour to their praise, but to impel them to good virtue. Such reckless fencers to not consort with honourable men, but with lions, bears, leopards, tigers, wild cattle, and buffaloes, or with bad, outlawed, evil men as was the custom of the Romans. For their use of fencing and foolhardiness they shall receive no praise whatsoever from my part.

To these I know no short answer, then it is true, that a regrettably large number of men who undertake to learn the knightly art within their own insolent wantonness, and that for this reason, they use their force to commit outrage and in anger cause injury to other men, as happened in Rome at one time as two fencing-masters did attach to themselves a great number of fencers and rioted in Italy causing so much damage to the common man that the mayors of Rome led the whole army against them, fought them, and had to exterminate them. Those, who are such men, I do not deem worthy of being named honest fencers, nor are they in no way worthy of any praise, and I do not wish to publish this work of honour to their praise, but to impel them to good virtue. Such reckless fencers to not consort with honourable men, but with lions, bears, leopards, tigers, wild cattle, and buffaloes, or with bad, outlawed, evil men as was the custom of the Romans. For their use of fencing and foolhardiness they shall receive no praise whatsoever from my part.
  
'''But there is found no''' faculty in all the world which does not share in such danger and worry, for a man may study whatever he likes, be he a ''theologian, jurist, medicus'' or some other besides, if his heart is not honest, pious and his spirit not upright, then all that which he is capable of and which he studied will only serve to the detriment and damage of himself and of others. Therefore no-one who desires to learn the knightly art should be dismayed by such lazy insinuations, and it does seem to me that such lazy insinuation does exclusively emanate from lazy and ignominious men who as the Epicureans put their attention only on all laziness and bodily lust, and that they have good and lazy days, a calm life, the best dainties, the best wine and drink according to all their whims and pleasure, may God provide for honest manhood and knightly sport by which land and people are sustained, and if these would utterly decay, they would not care much.

'''All kinds of examples''' of honesty are found in the histories, which indicate clearly that the empires, countries and cities are sustained by honesty of spirit and prowess of the fist, but that they dissolve and are undone by lazy inertia. The Assyrian Empire, which was the first empire in this world, did take its origin with king ''Ninus'' and by thirty-six kings was ruled in full honesty during one thousand two hundred and forty years. But on his accession their final king, ''Sardanapolus''<ref name="Assyria">Ninus: the legendary founder of Nineveh according to Ctesias (''Persica'', ca. 400 BC); Ctesias' Sardanapolus corresponds to Ashurbanipal (669 - 627 BC); Ctesias is a rather unreliable source by comparison with Herodotus and the Ptolemaic king list; but in any case knowledge on the Assyrian empire was very limited before the decipherment of cuneiform in the 1850s.</ref> ruled in such a way that under his rule sloth, lust of women, excessive eating and drinking, and gambling, became so rife that he drowned in these said vices, while honesty was in such low esteem that his own people grew disobedient and deserted him, and was divided in gangs and parties, and he was finally chased and exiled from his own empire, and thus by his negligent laziness, disrespect of knightly exercise and bad government, the Assyrian Empire came to its end with him. This king was often found in his women's quarters when he should have been dedicating himself to knighthood, and to please them he used to work the spindle. He had made costly preparation of his tomb before his death, and on it he ordered the following inscription [folio. 46.] '''''Sardanapolus Anecendarases. Ede, bibe, lude.'' which in German means this, Sardanapolus of Anecendarasis, eat, drink, play. In this the kind reader may well perceive what difference in success and failure there is between slothful and valiant lords. As Xerxes, king in Persia, re-conquered and brought into his power the city of Babylon after it had seceded from him, he considered how he could keep the great city of Babylon so that it would not secede from him again, and to this end he ordered that all Babylonian citizens and inhabitants may not carry any weapon, and may no longer exercise knightly sport, but he allowed them to visit the taverns and drink wine every night, to sing and whistle and also that they might have beautiful women, and might wear plaited dresses. All this he did with the intent of turning honest men into soft women, which indeed then did come to pass as they became used to pleasures, so that their manhood declined and thence he might rein them as with a bridle, which also did come to pass.

'''That God''' must hate the slothful is evident from the example of Gideon, as God would have his glory and victory over the Midianites not by means of the slothful, of whom there were entire troops, but by the valiant, keen and expert, of whom there were hardly three hundred, and who brought the water to the mouth with their hands. Saint ''David'' praised God the almighty many times, so that he might lend him grace and strength, and that his fingers would be ready to make war on his enemies.<ref name="Psalm">Gideon: Judges 7:4-7; David: Psalm 144:1: "Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight" (KJV).</ref> He also says how his help or hope are not in his sword, bow or arrow, but his hope is in the Lord. But for this he does not throw away his sword nor his arrow or bow, but he makes use of them as [instruments?] '''of God, by which God would show his glory, which example, then, is also appropriate to any pious and honest Christian fencer, namely that he remember to not spare his body in the time of need, for the faith and the true religion, against the Turks and infidels and for the freedom of the fatherland, for the protection and defense of widows and orphans, and that he should at all times employ the knightly art to such praiseworthy ends.

'''In this way, form and manner I have''' undertaken the knightly exercise of the sword, and did learn fencing with various weapons and properly tried it in various schools, and in it I did find such pleasure and love that I have undertaken to make this knightly honour-book. But what pains and labour I had with it throughout fully four years, every judicious reader of this book will well see and recognize; I did not allow myself to be put to shame by any cost, neither by pains nor labour that I did invest in it. I have included not without special reverence many old and new illustrated plays, which I have adopted from princes and lords, Jews and Christians and old fencing-masters. And much I had to purchase. From these I drew only the very best and most suitable to the art, and these said plays in all weapons as are contained in this book I let be practiced and fenced again and again by two brave and doughty fencers, who shared my desire and love for the knightly art, who did receive no small reward. And these same with all plays and articles I let be written down properly and assiduously, as is seen in each weapon and from play to play in this book (which is divided in two parts and equipped and adorned with additional very usable registers) [I am] '''in the certain hope that the proper lovers of this knightly art will put this knightly art-book to the best use and with grateful spirit shall be willing towards the Almighty for all well-being of body and soul, to which end I wish and desire for all honest and art-loving fencers the strength and the grace of God the Almighty.

[137] '''A Taking of the Sword with a Throw'''
+
[1] '''The Zornhaw against the Schaitler'''
 +
 
 +
When you proceed to close with the opponent, stand with your left foot forward and it happens like this with the Zornhaw. Hold your Duseggen with extended arm above your head on the right side such that the point hangs to the rear (left side of illustration), strike with the Zornhaw to the left side of his head, immediately follow outward with your right foot, and thrust to the right side of his face.
 +
 
 +
If he thrusts like this towards your face and you stand in the Schaitler with your left foot forward (right side of illustration), set his thrust aside with your long edge, follow outward with your right leg, and immediately strike to the left side of his head. If he displaces this, spring with your left foot before his right and strike with the long edge to his head.
  
When you are in the approach with your right foot standing forward, then step in toward the man with your left leg behind his right and cut toward his head with your long edge. At that moment, move your left hand from your grip to your sword blade. With that, wind the short edge on the left side of his neck. If you then stand with your right foot against him and he has confined<ref name="einengen">Choosing to read this as equivalent to modern German ''einengen''. “Trapped” as a translation for ''eineinden'' follows from this choice. Buyer beware.</ref> you like this, then plant the cross and shield of your sword under his left arm and briskly shove it upwards. Thus you take his trap<ref name="einengen"/> away. At that moment, grab the pommel of his sword with your inverted left hand and turn it well upwards. Thus you wind the sword out of his hands, and you may also be able to throw him.
+
If he then strikes a long one from above towards you like this, step in with your left leg and displace his strike, then immediately strike towards him with an Underhaw from your right to his left side.

[138] '''A Planting which Proceeds from a Throw'''
 
 
 
When you are in the approach with your left foot standing forward, then follow in after with your right leg inside of his left. In the same instant, cut to the left side of his head with your long edge. If he moves to strike a cut from above at you like this, and you are standing with your left foot toward him, then cut to the left side of his head with your long edge to oppose him, thereby taking away his cut on your left side. At that moment, cut him from his right side upon his left so that your short edge on his sword blade comes close to his grip. Next, let your left hand go from your pommel and take hold of your blade with inverted hand and plant it on the left side of his neck. Wrench to your left side, and thus you may be able to throw him over your left leg. If he has planted upon your neck like this and wishes to throw you, then quickly let your right hand go from your grip and plant it on his left elbow. Now strongly shove away from you and kick him in the ankle with your right foot around his left. With this, pull towards you below and shove away from you above. Thus, you throw him backwards.

[139] '''A Throw with the Sword'''
 
 
 
If you stand in the approach with your right foot toward the man, then step in after with your left leg and cut to the left side of his head. If he is coming in at you in the approach with his left leg toward you and has taken your cut away, then transfer your left hand from your pommel to the sword blade and place it on the left side of his neck. Wrench him with this on your right side. If he has set strongly upon you like this, then allow your sword to quickly fall away and set your right hand outside on his left elbow and shove it away from you. If he has taken away your planting, then let your right hand go from your handle and grab his left knee and lift it up high. If he has seized you in this way and intends to throw you, then grab his right hand with your left and push it down, thereby taking it away. In the same instant, hit him in the ankle with your left foot around his left. Pull that strongly toward you while you pull his right hand to you with your left and also push him strongly away from you above with your right hand, thus you throw him backwards.

[41] '''A way of placing the dussack on the opponent's neck and push him'''
 +
 
 +
The following device is performed in this manner: step forward with your right foot and hold your dussack raised over your head. If your opponent is standing before you this way, then step forward with your left foot and strike from above to his head. If he strikes you in this manner, then you too step forward with your left foot and parry him with the long edge. Then you step to your opponent's left so that your foot is standing below beside his left foot. Then you turn your dussack so that your point is pointing toward your opponent's right and swiftly grab hold of the middle of your dussack with your left hand and press against your opponent's neck with the long edge forward, and then with all your might push him back with your dussack, and if you at the same time put your foot in  behind his knee, you can throw him over by pulling him to you. If you are held in the same manner above and below, then reach with your left hand under his right and raise it up. Then, if you as quickly as you can try to thrust him in the face, he will have to let you go, and parry your thrust, and this way you will get away safe and sound.

 +
 
 +
In this device you stand with your left foot forward and hold your dussack with the right arm outstretched in a strike from above, so that the long edge is pointing forward. Then you step forward with your right foot and strike straight toward his head with the long edge. If the opponent does this to you, then step forward with your right foot toward him and strike as well against his strike and thrust your point into his face so that you parry his strike with the short edge, but when you are doing so, make sure to step in with your left foot and reach with your arm over his right arm behind his dussack, so that you have it firmly locked behind your shoulder blade. If your opponent is holding you in the same manner, then place your right foot on the inside behind his left and quickly turn your arm to the left and put it around his neck, and then you grab hold above his chest and pull him over your left foot, that way he will fall over and can do no more.

[43] '''A throwing technique with the dussack'''
 +
 
 +
In this device you stand with your right foot forward and strike a feigned strike from above at your opponent, and at the same time you step forward with your left foot, but as soon as you have pulled back the strike, you move the point in toward his face. If your opponent tries to do the same, and thrusts towards your face, and you are standing in the scale position, then step forward with your left foot and your dussack raised with straight arm over your head, with the point toward the opponent and the long edge up. If you do this, as well as you thrust with the point toward the left side of his face you will parry his thrust to your right. Then you go down into the scale position with your left leg outside his left and hold your dussack in protection with the long edge facing up. Then you grab hold of with your left hand in his left foot that he has stepped forward with, lift it up and strike from below to his arm with the long edge and the outermost part of your dussack, and at the same time you hold your dussack in good defense resting against his right arm, and in this manner you can throw your opponent over. If he were to do the same to you, then grab hold with your left hand in the inside of his wrist, and pull hard toward you, that way you will force him to fall with you if he does not let go.

[44]'''

[44] '''Another technique in the same manner'''
 +
 
 +
In this device, where both of you are using the same technique, and both are standing with left foot forward, and you are holding your dussack with straight arm, so that the long edge is facing up, and you direct your point from your left side into the opponent's face. Then you lower your dussack a little and turn your hand so that the short edge is facing up, and strike twice toward your opponent's head. If your opponent strikes his point into your face, you enter scale position, and pull in your right hand you are holding your dussack with, towards your chest and turn up the point and remove his thrust with the long egde, and if he tries to strike twice to your head, raise the dussack in defence so that the long edge is facing up, and thrust into his face. Then you lower the dussack and grab hold of his left foot that he has forward, and lift it up. Of he tries to strike at your head at the same time you step forward out of your parry and remove his strike you your left, and lay the dussack with the long edge against his right hand. Then you push away from you above, as you lift up below and he will fall to the ground. If you were to be held by your opponent in the same way, then grab hold as quickly as you can with your left hand onto the inside of his right hand, press down and pull against you, and he will fall with you, and you stop him from placing his dussack to your arm, and in the fall you can hit him in the head.

[45] '''The Point against the Crown'''
+
[1] '''The First Two Upper Bindings from the Right Side'''
 +
 
 +
It happens that you are closing with the staff. Step towards him with your right foot on the inside and wind from above from your right shoulder with the right hand outside of his staff. In the winding feel for whether he is soft or hard in the bind. If he is hard against you and holds against your strong, follow with your left leg after and at the same time change through from his left upon his right side and stab him to his face.
  
Present yourself like so in this piece with the approach: Step in there with your right leg and shoot the point of your dussack high over both his arms into his face. If you are then in the approach with your left leg coming in there toward him, and he is thrusting at your face like this, then go up in the Crown with your dussack, with your left hand forward by the point and with that take away his thrust to your right side. In that instant, release your left hand from your dussack out of the Crown and cut at him from your right side toward his face. If he cuts at your face like this, then go against his cut with the long edge and take it away on your left side. In the same moment, let the weak of your dussack fall away and step in with your right leg and cut toward his right arm. In that instant, pull back away from him.
+
If he stabs like this to your face and you also stand against him in the bind with your right foot forward, your right hand forward midway on your staff, then set this aside with our foremost point on your right side. Step with your left leg inside and wind your rearmost point to his face. If he sets this aside, then follow after with your right leg and strike him wickedly with your upper point out of the bind to his head.
|
+
 
| {{section|page:Cod.10826 112r.png|German|lbl=112r}}
+
If he strikes similarly from above to your head, set your left leg back and displace this with your foremost point. At the same time, thrust him to his chest. If he displaces this, pull back your thrust against him and stab him in his right arm. Then wind backwards away from him.

[46] '''A Dussack Hold'''
+
[2] '''The First Two Lower Bindings from the Left Side'''
  
Follow this piece in the approach like so: If he is coming in against you with his right leg and stands in the Bow, and you also stand with your right leg toward him, then snatch hold of his dussack with your left hand, [catching it] '''close to the point. Turn it toward your left side, and in the same moment step in with your left leg and cut toward his head with your long edge. If he has seized your dussack like this and cuts from above at you, then come to the aid of your right hand with your left on the handle of your dussack. Wind it out of his left hand. In the same moment, step in the parrying with your left leg to his right side in a triangle and quickly cut toward his right arm.
+
It happens that you have closed and stand with your left foot forward holding your staff at your left shoulder with your left hand forward. You stand this way against him and he the same in the lower bind. Step inside with your right leg and stab him from the inside to the outside over his left arm to the chest. If he displaces this, then follow after again with your left leg and wind your rearmost point to his face.

|-
+
If he stabs to your face like this and you stand with your left foot forward, set aside his stab and step inside with your right foot and at the same time thrust your foremost point to his face. If he sets this aside, then change through immediately and thrust to his left side. If he sets this aside, then follow after with your left foot and at the same time wind nimbly double with your foremost point and rearmost point to his face.
|

[47] '''A Throw with the Dussack'''
 
  
If both of you have come together in the approach and have bound with each other, then stand with your right foot forward and wind the handle of your dussack over his right arm. Once you have wound over his arm like this, then quickly step behind his right with your left leg and go around his neck with the point of your dussack, and then grab hold of your point with your left hand. In that moment, quickly and strongly pull it toward you. Thus you throw him backwards over your left leg.
+
If he winds double like this to your face, set this aside with your own winding from both sides. Then immediately follow after with your right leg and stab him to his face. If he displaces this, yank your right leg back and strike him with your staff with an inverted hand to his head and then immediately grab with your left hand once again your staff and cover your face with a good stance.

[48] '''A High Planting with a Throw'''
+
[3] '''The Next Two Upper Bindings from the Left Side'''
 +
 
 +
It happens that you close to the upper bind from your left side. He stands against you likewise in the bind from his left side. Step in with your left leg and at the same time feel whether he is hard or soft in the bind. If he is soft, step outward with your right leg and thrust to his face. If he does a take off, then immediately wind through from your right upon his right side.
  
Present yourself like so in this piece with the approach: Step in to him with your right leg and cut to his head with your long edge. If he cuts at you from above like this, and you stand with your left leg toward him, then rush to oppose his cut with your dussack. With that, take away his cut on your left side and push hard away from you. In the same instant, wind over his dussack with your long edge and plant your dussack on his neck so that you have the dussack in both hands. Now, hit him in the ankle with your left foot around his right and strongly pull him toward you; above, strongly push him away from you with your dussack at his neck. Thus, you throw him backwards.
+
If he winds like this to your right side and you likewise stand against him in the bind with your left foot placed forward, displace this and at the same time step outward with your right leg and thrust to his face inside over his right arm. If he displaces this, wind through with your point at his right side and thrust with your point to his right side. If he sets this aside, follow outward with your left leg and wind through with your rearmost point between his arms to his face.

[49] '''A High and Low Planting'''
+
[4] '''The Next Two Lower Bindings from the Right Side'''
 +
 
 +
It happens that you close to the lower bind with your right foot set forward and your right hand extended in front near the point. Immediately wind your right hand to the hip and stab him to his face.
  
When you come in to the approach with your left leg, and you are in a high cut with your dussack in the air, then step in to him with your right leg and cut outside and from above toward his right arm. If he cuts at you from above like this, and you stand against him in a low cut, then step in with your right leg and quickly cut him outside and from below toward his right arm. If you have planted upon him from below like this, then pull your dussack down and cut above to his head with your long edge. If he cuts high to you like this, then move to oppose his cut with your dussack, taking it away on your right side. In the same moment, leap to his right side with your left leg in a triangle and shove your point at his face. Cut back away from him.
+
If he stabs you like this to your face and you also stand against him in the bind with your right foot placed forward, set it aside with your foremost point and make as if you will stab to his right leg. hen immediately step with your left foot outward and wind your rearmost point to his face or chest.

If he winds like this to your face, step back with your right foot and set this aside with your rearmost point. Then immediately step in once more with your right foot and stab with your foremost point to his face. If he displaces this, change through with your point and follow outward with your left leg and with that stab at his right side.

[50] '''Taking Away Two High Cuts with the Dagger'''
 
  
When you are in the approach, follow this piece like so: Step in with your right leg and cut high at his head with your long edge. If he cuts at you from above like this, and you stand with your left leg toward him, then move to oppose his dussack with your dagger, parrying his cut with the cross of your dagger. In the same moment, cut toward his head with your dussack, as he did to you. If he cuts at you like this, then go up to his dussack with your dagger (as he did to you) and parry with the cross of your dagger. In the same moment, turn his dussack to your left side with your left hand inverted and wind the point of your dussack to his face. With that, cut away from him.
+
If he stabs towards you like this, set it aside and at the same time follow outward with your right leg and wind both points double to his face. If he sets this aside, yank your right foot back and strike to his head. Then wind back into a good stance.

[13] '''An Inverted Strike against an Abnemen'''
+
[17] '''Two Upper Thrusts to the Chest from the Left Side'''
  
It happens that at the closing you strike towards him with a doubled Prusthau (chest strike) as you come to him. Then step in with your right foot towards him and at the same time release the staff to quickly pass over and strike his head with an inverted hand. Then once again grip the staff with your left and wind your foremost point into his face.
+
It happens at the closing that you step in with your left foot towards him and thrust with your staff from your left side inward between his arms to his left chest. He then stands opposed to you also in the Upper Thrust from his left side with his left foot set forward and thrusts to your chest as well. Then release your left hand from your staff and grip with it to his staff near his point and at the same time wind your point beneath his left shoulder with your right hand. Then step in towards him with your right foot and with that wind both staves at your right side with crosswise arms. Thus you will have him such that he cannot work against you.
  
If you then stand like this against him with your left foot forward and with your staff extended and the point directed at the ground, take aside his strike with the portion of the staff between your hands (as shown in the illustration), step in with your right leg and wind your short point in your right hand to his face. If he displaces this, step to the rear again with your right foot and thrust your long point to his face.
+
If he has you locked up like this such that you cannot work with your staff, then quickly allow the staff to drop, set your left foot behind his right from the outside, grab with your right hand to the back of his right knee and with your left below his right shoulder well around and across your body. Thus you will with this prevent him from harming you.
 
+

If he thrusts to your face double like this, take it away with your foremost point and immediately step in with your left foot and thrust your rearmost point double to his face. Should he perceive this double thrust and displace it, strike him quickly with your long point to his right side. If he displaces this as well, wind double to his chest. With that step back into a good stance.

[18] '''A Thrown and Pinned position from which He Cannot Escape'''
|
+
 
[14] '''A Gewicht Stab against a Groin Stab'''
+
Hold yourself as follows at this closing. Strike inward with the Sturzhau (plunging strike) towards him, then set your left foot forward and thrust your foremost point to his face.
 +
 
 +
If he thrusts like this to your face when you are opposite him at the closing, then set it aside with a forward wind at your staff, step in with your right foot towards him and thrust your long point to his chest.
  
When you come to close with the opponent, step in with your left leg and hold your staff with your right hand above your head and your left hand well forward on your staff and stab to his left elbow so that you capture his gewicht (sleeve?).  
+
If he thrusts like this to your chest, then step well in towards him and set the thrust aside with the mid-point of your staff between your hands. Then immediately throw your staff outward over your head, put your body in the Wag and grab with both hands to his waist. Then squeeze him to you and lift him well upwards so that you have him in the weak position.  Then immediately throw him down so that you have used him to break your own fall. Knee him to his groin with your right foot between his feet and your left beneath his right. Seize both his hands for by the throat and press hard everywhere to the ground so that you control him (as illustrated).  
 
   
 
   
If he thrusts like this to the sleeve of your left arm and you likewise have your staff in your right hand above your head and your left foot set forward, set this aside upwards from upon your staff and immediately thrust to his groin. Thus you hit him with your thrust below his, which is in vain. Then immediately follow inward with your right leg and wind your rearmost point to his face.
+
If you have thus been violently thrown down and controlled, quickly take heed that your hand is not locked up, but rather stop him with either hand in his face, the thumb under the chin and the other fingers beneath the eye sockets. Grab hence strongly with either hand. Thrust him strongly to the groin. Extend a foot that is unencumbered and at the same time yank him against you so that you give him a good one to the groin. With these three grips you can bring him to the mark.
 
+
| {{paget|page:MS Dresd.C.93|191v|png}}
If he winds like this to your face, set it aside with your foremost point. Then hold your staff directly in front of your face and immediately step in with your right foot towards him and strike his staff out of his foremost hand with your rearmost point and thrust with your foremost point to his face. If he sets this aside, yank your right leg back and shoot your long point to his chest. With that step back in to a good stance.

[15] '''A position in the Wag against a Gewalt Stoss'''
+
[19] '''A parry with half staff position on both sides'''
  
It happens at the closing that you stand in this position with the feet equally together, your staff pointed at the ground, the left hand mid-way on the staff, the right hand at your right side and present yourself with your body in the Wag (balanced stance or position). Then immediately step in with your left leg and thrust your long point to his chest.
+
This is what you do when entering before your opponent: if he is standing with his right foot forward and thrusts at your face, do thus: stand with your right foot forward, hold the staff with the arms outstretched over your head, step forward with your left foot and turn in the back end of the staff into his face, and you have parried his thrust. You can do these techniques from both sides with both full or half staff position, by turning the staff both before he attacks and after.

If he thrusts like this to your chest and you stand with your left foot forward, your staff at your left leg pointed at the ground and your right hand over your head near your point, then step in with your right leg and set this aside with your foremost point from your right hand. Then immediately step again with your right foot to the rear and thrust with the Gewalt Stoss (power thrust) with your strong and with your long point to his face.

[20] '''A strike with a parry'''
  
If he thrusts with the strong like this to your face, step in with your left foot in the triangle so that you avoid his thrust. Then immediately step in with your right leg towards him and release your staff to pass over and strike his head. Then grip your staff once again with your left hand and wind double away from him back into a good stance.
+
Do as follows in this play: strike with long staff toward the head of the opponent and step forward with your left foot. If your opponent comes at you in this manner, then hold the staff in half staff thrust and raise it high in the air. Step forward with your left foot and parry his strike in the middle of your staff, then turn the back end between his both hands and thrust him in the face, and hit him in the head with the front end, whereby you may step away from him in good defence.

[16] '''A Long Point with an Abnemen against a Crossed Wechsel'''
+
[21] '''An high and a low bind in half staff position'''
  
When you come to the closing with the opponent step in with your right foot and hold your staff forward pointed at the ground with your right hand mid-way and the left near your point back at your left hip. He then stands opposed to you in the Crossed Wechsel (changer) with his right foot set forward. Go forward with your long point and at the same time follow outward with your left leg and thrust to his face. If he sets this aside, follow outward with your right foot and wind your rearmost point to his face or chest.
+
this is what you do when fencing in towards your opponent: when you both bind from below or from above against each other, then step forward with your left foot, and thrust with the back end to his face. If he parries, then strike him in the head with the front end. If he does this, on the other hand, then parry with half and whole staff and strike him as soon as you see him open.
 
+
|  
If he thrusts double like this to your face, go forward with your staff and set this aside with your foremost point. Then follow outward with your left leg and thrust your rearmost point to his face out of the Crossed Wechsel. If he displaces this, quickly wind him again double to his left side.
+
| {{section|page:Cod.10825 165r.png|German|lbl=165r}}

If he travels after (nachraisen) you like this, set this aside with your half staff. Then follow outward with your left leg and stab with your rearmost point to his left side. Then immediately yank your left leg back and strike him with your foremost point to his head. With that step back into a good stance.

Then step in towards him with your right foot and with that wind both staves at your right side with crosswise arms. Thus you will have him such that he cannot work against you.
+
step forward with your left foot and then another step further with your right foot and thrust to his face, so that you remove his strike. If he removes your strike in this manner, then step forward with your left foot and turn in the point from below toward his face. If he parries, then step back and strike him in the head, and thrust him with long staff in the face.

If he has you locked up like this such that you cannot work with your staff, then quickly allow the staff to drop, set your left foot behind his right from the outside, grab with your right hand to the back of his right knee and with your left below his right shoulder well around and across your body.

Do this device thus: hold your pike on your left side, and stand with your left foot forward. Stretch out your right hand holding the back end of your pike on your right side and take hold of it with the left hand. Then, step forward with your right foot and thrust to his face. If he attacks you thus, and you then stand with your left foot forward, holding your pike with at level with your left knee, and the right hand by your right leg, then parry his thrust with the front end of your pike, change through, step forward with the right foot, and thrust to the right side of his chest from our right side. Should he parry this, let the tip sink to the ground, step back with the right foot and lift up the pike in front of your face wih the right hand over your head, place it back on the side and thrust from your right side to his left. If he thrusts at you thus, then parry his thrust, step back with the right foot and swing the pike up, and go to the strong, ie you direct the pike towards his face, and sense if he presses his pike hard or loose against yours on your right side. Then grab the pike with in the front end again, step forward with your right foot and thrust to his face on his right side.

[20] ''''''
+
When you engage in fencing with the pike in this device, you do thus: stand with your right foot forward and direct the point towards his face, and keep your left hand by the left leg. Then, step forward with your left foot and thrust towards his throat. If your opponent on the other hand attacks you thus, and you then stand with your right foot forward and the right hand by the right knee, and your left hand above your left leg, then do as follows: move his thrust aside to your right with your front end, step forward with left foot1 and thrust to his face. Should he parry, you change through underneath, and thrust to his chest. Then, you step forward again with your right foot and lift the pike up into free position, ie holding it level with your head, either to the right or left of you, and then thrust to his face. If he attacks you thus, then step back with the left foot and parry with a crossed changing guard to your left. Take a step bak further with your right foot and turn the pike out of the changing guard to your right and thrust again at the same spot. Then you lower the tip raise your right hand above your head, holding the pike in front of your face in good protection. Furthermore, should your opponent use the same double thrust against you, then quickly parry between your hands, step forward with your left foot and thrust to his chest, then you may retreat from him unharmed.

If he parries, then step back with the right foot again, lower the point to the ground, and lift it over your head in good protection, as you back away from him.

[2] '''The weak and strong on the pikes at first contact '''
 
 
 
When you engage in fencing with the pike in this device, you do thus: stand with your right foot forward and direct the point towards his face, and keep your left hand by the left leg. Then, step forward with your left foot and thrust towards his throat. If your opponent on the other hand attacks you thus, and you then stand with your right foot forward and the right hand by the right knee, and your left hand above your left leg, then do as follows: move his thrust aside to your right with your front end, step forward with left foot1 and thrust to his face. Should he parry, you change through underneath, and thrust to his chest. Then, you step forward again with your right foot and lift the pike up into free position, ie holding it level with your head, either to the right or left of you, and then thrust to his face. If he attacks you thus, then step back with the left foot and parry with a crossed changing guard to your left. Take a step bak further with your right foot and turn the pike out of the changing guard to your right and thrust again at the same spot. Then you lower the tip raise your right hand above your head, holding the pike in front of your face in good protection. Furthermore, should your opponent use the same double thrust against you, then quickly parry between your hands, step forward with your left foot and thrust to his chest, then you may retreat from him unharmed.

[3] '''Right and left open guard'''  
 
 
 
 
The right open guard is performed thus: stand with your right foot forward and the point on the ground, left hand on back end and right hand by your right knee. From here, you step forward with your left foot, raise the point and thrust to his face. If he tries to do this to you, and you then stand with your left foot forward, with left hand by your left knee, and the right hand on the back end, and leave the open guard and enter into the crossed changer, and parry as you take a step back with the left foot. Then raise the pike into free standing with feet together, and the pike resting on your left elbow. Step forward again with the left foot, and thrust hard against your opponent’s face. If your opponent parries, step forward again with your right foot, and thrust to his left side. If he does this to you, then push away his thrust with the front end of your pike, from the left side to your right, and quickly thereafter you step forward with your right foot and thrust to his groin. Should he parry, you step forward with the left foot, raise the pike above your head and thrust to his face. If he does the same double thrust to you, then parry with the front end, change through from his left to his right and thrust to his face or chest. Then, turn to your right in open guard with right foot forward and withdraw from your opponent in good defence.

[21] '''The Crossed Guard against the Low'''
 
 
Hold yourself like this in this piece in the approach: Step in toward him with your left leg and go up out from the lower guard with a thrust to his face. If he stabs you from below like this and you stand against him in the crossed guard with your right foot forward, then step in with your left leg and cut from above to oppose his thrust as you step. Push it downwards so that you take his thrust away. If he has cut at you in this way and taken away your thrust, then wind your blade from your left side against his halberd on his left side, thus you block him. In the same moment, then pull the halberd and thrust toward his face or chest. If he stabs at you like this, then take it away with your blade on your left side. In the same instant, cut to his head with your blade. Turn yourself twice back away from him.

Present yourself like so in this piece: When you both are going together, stand with your left foot ahead and hold your scythe on your right side with your left hand at the lower grip, your right on the middle one. At that moment cut to his left side, in around toward his right arm. If he cuts at you like that and you also are standing with your left foot toward him, and you too are holding your scythe on your right side with your left hand at the lower grip, your right at the middle one, then leap in a triangle and set his cut off outside in front with your scythe on your right side. Now step in there out of triangle with your left leg and cut at his neck. If he cuts high at you in that way, then step backwards with your left leg and parry his cut outside in front on your scythe. In the same moment, nimbly step in there again and wind your scythe behind your head and out from there with a cut from your left side to the right side of his head, and with that, step back away from him.

If you are both coming together, then conduct yourself like this in this piece: Stand with your right foot in front and hold your scythe in a low cut with your right hand at your middle grip, your left at your lower one. At that moment step doubly in a triangle and cut to his right arm from behind your head so that your arms come crosswise one over the other. If he cuts at you like this, and you also stand with your right foot toward him, and you hold your scythe in a low cut, your right hand at your middle grip, your left at the lower one, then go up out of your low cut and take his cut away on the outside of your scythe on your right side. At that moment, step in a triangle on your left side with your left leg and wind your scythe behind your head and back out to his head, so that your arms come crosswise, one over the other. In the same moment, step back from him with a good parry.

Hold yourself like this with this piece: When you are both closing together, stand with your left foot in front and hold your scythe on your right side, with your [left]* hand at your lower grip, your right at your middle one. At that moment, follow in after with your right leg and cut around his body with your scythe toward his right side. If he cuts a middle cut to you like this, and you also stand with your left foot toward him, and you also hold your scythe on your right side with your right hand at your middle grip, your left at your lower one, then step in there in a triangle with your right leg and wind your scythe behind your head and out again so that your arms come cross-wise over each other with a cut toward the right side of his body. If he cuts at you with a middle cut like this, then go inside to him with your scythe at his scythe. Shove strongly with it away from you on your right side. In that moment, step with your left leg to his right side and cut to his head. Step away from him with it.

If you are both going together, then hold yourself like this in this piece: Stand with your left foot in front and hold your scythe in front of your body, toward the man, with your right hand at the middle grip, your left at your lower one. In that moment quickly cut toward his head. If he cuts high to you like this, and you are also standing with your left foot toward him, and you are holding your scythe high in front of your face with your right hand at your middle grip, your left at your lower one, then take away his high cut with your haft on your left side. If he has taken you away in this manner, then wind through underneath and quickly cut* to him with the point of your scythe toward his head. If he wishes to set you aside and cut at you like this, then go up with your scythe and take him away on the outside your scythe on your right side. At that moment, cut toward the left side of his head. With that, step backwards from him.

Conduct yourself like this in this piece: When you are closing with each other, stand with your right foot in front and hold your scythe straight to the man with your left hand at your lower grip, your right at your middle one. At that moment, cut around his body toward his right leg*. If he cuts low at you like this, and you are also standing with your left foot toward him, and you hold your scythe toward the man with cross-wise arms, then take it away below with your haft on your left side. At that moment, quickly cut toward his neck. If he cuts high at you like this, then step around on your right side with your left leg and take away his cut with your hilt on your right side. In that moment cut toward his left (forward) leg. If he cuts low at you in this manner, then set your lower grip of your scythe before your left leg and step with your right to your left and with that, take his low cut away. In the same moment, go up and cut toward his neck. Step back away from him with it.

If the two of you are going together, then conduct yourself like this in this piece: stand with your right foot ahead and hold your scythe toward the man in a high cut, with your right hand at your middle grip, your left at your lower one. In that moment cut outside to his right arm. If he cuts high at you like this, and you are also standing with your right foot toward him, and you hold your scythe toward the man with your right hand at your middle grip, your left at your lower one, then set him aside with your lower grip. At that moment cut at him from below to the inside of his right arm. If he cuts at you from below in this way, then exchange your left hand from your lower grip to the middle one, and your right to where your left stood at the lower grip, thus you escape from his cut. In that moment, quickly cut at him from underneath toward his right arm and with that, step back away from him in a good parry with your scythe.

In that instant, let your left hand loose from your lower grip and step back away with your left leg, thus you escape out from his cut. Next, grab hold of your lower grip again with your left hand and step around and in again with your left leg. With that, cut to the right side of his neck and step back from him.

If he cuts high to you like this, and you also stand with your right foot toward him, and you hold your scythe extended in front of your face, with your left hand at the lower grip, your right at the middle one, then take it away with the haft of your scythe on your right side.

If he cuts at you from above like this, then go against him again and take away his cut to the outside on your scythe. At the same moment, follow in after with your left leg and cut toward his head. Step back away from him with this.
 
Present yourself like this in this piece: If you are both coming together, stand with your right foot ahead and hold your scythe extended toward the man, with your left hand at the lower grip, your right at the middle one. At that very moment, cut toward his head. If he cuts high to you like this, and you also stand with your right foot toward him, and you hold your scythe extended in front of your face, with your left hand at the lower grip, your right at the middle one, then take it away with the haft of your scythe on your right side.

When you both are coming together, then present yourself like so in this piece: Stand with your left foot forward and hold your scythe extended before your body toward the man, with your right hand at the lower grip on your right side, your left at your middle one. At that moment, quickly cut toward the right side of his neck. If he cuts high at you like this, and you are standing with your right foot toward him, and you hold the scythe in a low cut, with your left hand at your lower grip in front of your face, your right at your middle one, then take away his high cut with the haft of your scythe on your right side. In that moment, cut between both his legs to his crotch. If he cuts you from below in this way, then be sure to go down and force his scythe away with the haft of your scythe, thus you take away his shot to your crotch with it. In that instant go up again with your scythe and cut toward the right side of his neck. With this, cut it to the ground.

If he strikes at you so, then hang your staff well down on your right side. Thus with that you take his strike from him. Then, follow to with your left leg and strike him to his head on his right side. With that step back from him.

If he strikes at you so from above, and you stand with your right foot against him and hold your staff on your left shoulder with both hands at your back end, then wind with your staff behind your head forward on your right side, the front end well down and displace his strike with that. Then step in with your left leg, and strike him with your staff to his head.

Present yourself like so in this piece with the javelin: Stand with your left foot ahead and hold it with both hands on your right side, your front end or point toward the man. If he then also stands with his left foot toward you and holds his sword overhead in a high cut against you, and he wishes to cut in at your head, then quickly stab at his body. If he stabs at you like this, then step backwards with your left leg and cut with your sword to the left side of the shaft of his javelin with the Zwerch so that you take his thrust away with it. If he cuts opposing you like this and takes your thrust away from you, then follow in after with your right leg and thrust at him with the front end of your javelin toward the right side of his body. With this, step back from him.

When you both are coming together, then present yourself like so in this piece with your halberd: Stand with your left foot forward and hold your halberd extended in front of your face with your right hand on the back end, pointed toward the man, your left at the middle, high on your left side. At that moment quickly cut toward his head. If he cuts from above at you like this and you also stand with left foot toward him, and you hold your sword on your right shoulder, the pommel in your left hand and pointed toward the man, then cut to his halberd with the long edge. Thus you take his cut away with it. At the same moment step in a triangle and cut to the left side of his head with the long edge. If he cuts from above at you like this, then step twice with a chasing and stab him twice from below and above as you step away from him with it.

Hold yourself like this with this piece: When you are both closing together, stand with your left foot in front and hold your spear on your right side with your left hand ahead toward the man, your right behind your right leg on your spear. At that moment quickly stab at him toward his face. If he stabs high at you like that, and you stand with your right foot toward him and you hold your sword in the Change on your left side, the point toward the ground, then go up with your sword out of the Change and with that strike to his spear. Thus you take away his thrust on your right side. If he has cut at your spear like this, then pull your spear downwards. In that moment, go up again so that you have your spear well out front in the middle and stab him through the left side of his body. If he has stabbed you through your body, then cut strongly to him with your long edge toward his head, and this strike must be done quickly or else it is wasted.

If you are both going together, then hold yourself like this in this piece: Stand with your right foot forward and hold your halberd with your right hand on the lower end at your right hip, your left in the middle toward the man, the point up. At that moment, stab him in his face with your forward end. If he stabs you high like this, and you also stand with your left foot toward him, well in the balance, and you hold your sword with both hands on the haft on your left side, the point toward the man, then plant your long edge on his halberd and set him aside with it. In that moment, step in with your right leg and go up over your head with your sword with crossed arms and cut high to his head with your long edge. If he cuts high at you like this, then wind your halberd behind your head and back around and strike him with the blade of your halberd toward his head.

Conduct yourself like this in this piece: When you are closing with each other, stand with your right foot in front and hold your dussack in your right hand toward the man, your left hand on your left hip. In that moment, quickly cut toward his head. If he cuts high at you like this, and you are standing with your left foot toward him, then oppose his dussack with crossed arms, restraining his cut with yours, away to your right side. At that moment, follow in with your right leg and let your sword quickly overrun and cut toward the left side of his head. If he cuts high at you like this, then take that away with your dussack on your left side. In that moment, leap to his right side with your left foot and cut to his right arm. If he cuts to your right arm like this, then hang well to your right side and parry his cut with your sword. In that moment, step in there with your left leg and cut to his forward leg.

When the two of you are coming together, then present yourself like so in this piece: Stand with your right foot forward and hold your sword on your right side with both hands on your hilt. At that moment, cut to his head with your long edge. If he cuts from above at you like this, and you stand with your left foot toward him, and you hold your dussack on your left arm with your right hand on your grip in the air behind your head, your long edge wound upward, the point toward the man, then take that away on your left side. In that moment, step in there with your right leg and cut to the left side of his head. If he cuts at you from above like this, then hang your sword on your left side so that the long edge is turned upwards and parry his cut with it. In that moment, cut to his left leg with your long edge and step back away from him with it.

Conduct yourself like so in this piece: If two of you are coming together, then stand with your left foot forward and hold your sword in front of your face toward the man. In that moment, cut to his head. If he cuts from above at you like this, and you stand with your left foot toward him, then quickly step in there with your right leg and parry his cut with your dagger on your right arm, close to the grip on his blade. In that moment, catch hold of his right arm with your left hand, (going) inside over his handle. Pull him to your left side and stab at his face. If he thrusts high at you like this, then let your left hand loose from the pommel of your sword, take hold of his left and shove it upward. Thus you take away his thrust. At that moment, step back with your left leg, yank your right hand to you, and take hold of your pommel again with your left. In that moment, cut to his head and step back away from him with it.

If he thrusts low at you like this, then step back with your left leg and take his thrust away on your left side with the forward part of your spear. If he has taken you away like this, then cut to his head with the blade of your halberd. If he cuts high at you like this, then move towards his cut and stab over his left arm through his neck, then you may plant him to the ground.

Present yourself like so in this piece from the approach: Step in with your left leg and cut a high cut to his head. If he cuts upon you from above like this, and you have your right foot in front, then step in with your left leg and go up high in front of your head in the Crown with your dussack, thereby parrying his cut. If he has taken away your cut like this, then step in with your right leg and wind your front end to his face or chest from below. If he has wound into you with his point like this, then fall upon his halberd with the Crown and push it far below, thus you take that away. In the same moment, grab the back end of his halberd with your left hand and lift his halberd. Step in with your right leg and cut to his head in the same instant. If he then parries that, stab him in the face or chest. Immediately pull yourself back away from him with a Double Cut.

In the same instant, push it from you on your left side and grab the forward part of his spear, thus you take away his thrust. If he wants to catch your spear, then quickly pull it toward yourself and stab at his face or chest from his left to his right side. If he thrusts a second time at you like this, then take that away with your rapier on your right side. In the same moment, step in with your left leg and grab the middle of his spear with your left hand, then in that instant, quickly stab to his face. If he parries you, then change through on his spear and leap in a triangle and cut to his head.

If you both approach each other, and hold the sickle correctly, if you put your right foot in front and hold the sickle in the right hand  next to the left side of your head, and stretch the opened left hand towards your opponent, and from there follow with the left [foot], you cut his head from his right side.

Then, if you have grabbed the right [hand] '''of the opponent with the left hand, you wound his head on the right side. But if the opponent comes at you in the same way from above, if you quickly grab his right [hand], you can in this way turn away his cuts. And from there, you can immediately, if you pull the right [hand], try to cut the left leg of the opponent standing in front. But if he tries the same, then push the right elbow of the opponent more inwards with your left hand, if you then pull back the right hand, you can hit his head with the point of the sickle and pull back again.

In this fight, when you come closer to the opponent, you will stretch your right arm, and with the right hand hold the sickle opposite him, but hold the left [hand] '''on the left hip, and then, after you have followed with the left foot, you will hit the head of the opponent with the sickle. But if he comes at you in the same manner, [while you are] '''standing with the right foot in front, and if you hold the sickle against the opponent with the right hand and in the same manner hold the left hip with the left hand, you will displace his attempt to your right side.

But if he wants to pull you towards him in the same way, if then with the left hand you grab his right, and to your right side displace the attempt of the opponent, hit his head immediately on the left side and from there pull back. But if the opponent likewise pulls back again, you will threaten him sharply by following him, and hitting the right hand of the opponent with the sickle.

In the fight you will act in this manner: put your right leg in front, and hold the sickle with the right hand opposite the opponent, but put your left against your left hip, and from this position you cut the enemy’s neck from outside on the right side with the sickle. But if he uses this against you, [while you are] '''standing with the left foot in front, and are also holding the sickle in the right hand opposite the opponent, then grab the right elbow of the opponent with the left hand from the outside, and if you sharply displace that towards your right side, you will deflect the cut of the opponent, and from there you will make sure that you cut his right elbow from the outside with the sickle. But if the opponent attempts the same against you, you will not neglect to grab the right arm of the opponent with left hand and in that way displace his cut. And from there you will with force attempt to cut the left leg of the opponent, [which is] '''placed in front, after pulling back the right [hand] '''towards you. But if he has come at you in the same way, you will displace him with force with the left hand against his right arm. But if the opponent displaces you in the same way, you will suddenly pull back your right, and if from there you injure his head by cutting, pull back from him again.

[12] '''A cut from above against one that attacks the side'''
  
In this fight, when you arrive at the opponent, you will remember to place your right foot in front, and if you hold the sickle high with the right hand against the opponent, you will hit his head. But if the opponent acts against you in the same manner [while you are] '''standing with the right foot in front, and you in turn are holding the sickle in the right hand in the manner of the middle cut, then with the left hand grab the right arm of the opponent at the front, next to the hand, and if you lift him upwards in that way, you will displace the cut from above. And quickly you will wound the right side of the opponent with the sickle. But if you understand that he attacks you in the same manner, then with the left hand hinder the right elbow of the opponent from the outside, and if you push the opponent strongly away towards your right side, you will deceive his middle cut, and meanwhile follow with the left foot and hit his right leg, [which is] '''placed in front, and from there again pull back from the opponent.

You will adapt to the opponent from this fight in this way, that you put your right foot in front and hold the sickle with a stretched arm against the opponent, and you will make sure that you cut his head with force. And if he in his turn attempts to wound you, then you [standing] '''opposite him with the right leg in front, and the sickle held in the right hand in the manner of the cut from above, cover the right elbow of the opponent with the left hand from the outside, and if you then lift this, you will lift away his cut from above. Meanwhile you will cut the right arm of the opponent from above next to the hand. But if he attempts to injure you in the same manner, you will place your left hand on the chest of the opponent between both his arms, from the right side, and in this manner you will push him away, and from his cut you will safely release yourself. But meanwhile, after you have pulled towards you with your right hand, you will cut the right arm of the opponent, and from there pull back from him again.

If it will be necessary to adapt to this action in this manner, you will put your right foot in front, and hold the sickle with the right hand, in front of your face opposite the opponent, but also place the left [hand] '''against the left hip. Meanwhile you will place the left foot outside behind the right of the opponent, and in the manner of a cut from his right side connect the sickle around the loin to hit. But if he attacks you in approximately the same manner, you in your turn will use the learned method [a cut around the loin from the right], and pull the opponent towards you from there. But if he in his turn connects his sickle with your loin, you will with the left hand hinder his elbow on the inside, and displace the attack of the opponent to your left side. Further, if you in turn are displaced by him in the same manner, if you have grabbed his chin with the left hand, you will lift this up. But if the opponent attempts to turn this against you, you will immediately attack with the sickle, and pretend to want to attack the opponent from above to cut, but to deflect you will cut his left arm and in this manner you will free yourself, so that he cannot grab your chin. But if you understand that the opponent wants to do the same against you, then throw the sickle away, and throw your left hand from above against his neck, and put the right on his genital, and if in this manner you will lift up the opponent, you will throw him down on your left side.

Item, conduct yourself thus in the onset with the daggers. Wind yourself with stabs and with thrusts to him [so] that your right foot stands forward.
 +
 
 +
If he thus thrusts to you at your right side and you stand also with your right foot forward against him, so take him out away from there with an outside binding [so] that your thumb stands above on your pommel. Immediately pull your dagger nimbly to yourself and thrust to him therewith at his right side.
 +
 
 +
If he should thus then thrust at you, so take that [his] away from below so that your thumb stands on your pommel and the blade lies outward on the arm.<ref>Note: Change of grip required, or the illustration does not match.</ref> Immediately step with your left leg behind his right and grab with your left hand on his right elbow. Shove him therewith from you and, simultaneous with the shove, stab at his face.
  
Do as follows when going towards him in this wrestling device: first of all, pay attention to whether he comes at you with his arms high or low. If he holds his arms high, then you do not need to worry about him, and use whatever techniques you want. If his arms are low, however, then keep the thumbs in your hands closed, your left hand on your left side, your right hand att your right side, and your left foot forward. Then enter the scales position, and you have your advantage over him.
+
If he has thus seized you and stabs at your face, so take him away nimbly inwardly with your left hand.  Immediately set your right leg back on your right side so you wind yourself from him.

Item: conduct yourself thus in this device with the onset. Wind yourself with stabs and with thrusts doubly in at him [so] that your left leg comes in forward and [you] stab him at his right side [so] that the thumb stands by your rondel.
 +
 
 +
If he thus stabs at your right side and you stand with your right foot forward, so take that away from the binding behind his rondel [so] that your thumb is [shall be] above on your pommel. Immediately step with your left foot behind his right* and set your left hand behind his right elbow; shove him therewith from you and stab him at his neck.

BREAK
  
Do as follows in this technique: stand with your left and right arm as described before, so that you may see what your opponent is up to, your left foot forward, and your left hand closed beside your left leg. If your opponent advances on you like this and grabs you by the right shoulder with his left hand, then wind your right closed hand on the outside over his left arm and press down, that way his attempt is countered.
+
If he has thus set on, so set your left foot back and grab with your left hand outward over his right<ref>Dagger transfer necessary at this point.</ref> and stab him at his face. If he takes that away with his dagger, so grab with your left hand on his right; push him therewith under himself and thrust him in his face.
  
{{*}} Latin: The first technique where the opponent is thrust away by the elbow, and the endeavor of his arm is weakened.

Item: conduct yourself thus in this taking away. Set your right foot forward and go to him with your dagger at his right arm. If he stands also thus against you with his right foot forward and is simultaneously working with you, so grab with your left hand in front on his right, shove him therewith under himself and stab at his right side.
  
If your opponent advances upon you as mentioned above, then use this technique: reach over his left arm with your left arm and grab hold of the inside of his left leg just above the knee, and step behind him on his right side with your left foot. Now, do keep in mind that your stepping and grabbing him are done at the same time, and fast. Do that, and you will throw him over. Note also that this technique can be done from both sides.

Item: Conduct yourself thus. Stand with your left foot forward and hold your dagger in your left hand upright against his face. If he should then stand also against you with his right foot forward and holds his dagger up, the thumb on the pommel, the point against the man, so follow with your right leg in after and thrust him at his face.
 +

If he thus thrusts at you, so set his [thrust] aside, immediately tear after him and seek his next [nearest?] opening
 +

If he has set himself forward, so change through nimbly and thrust at his genitals.
  
When you both go together, then observe carefully that you grab your opponent with the tong hold, that is with crossed arms, around the neck with your right hand, behind his shoulder by the leather collar that martial arts masters use to wear. If he then tries to free himself with his left arm, and reaches through under your right arm in order to get free of it above, then quickly step with right leg behind both his feet, and grab with your left hand between his legs in his crotch. Lift up with your left, and push hard to your right with your right hand by his neck, and throw him over your forward leg.

If you become aware of this thrust, so fall to him with your left hand on his right and remove his thrust therewith. Immediately stab nimbly at this face and step back into a good stance.

[43] '''A throw out of the Shears'''
 +
 
 +
Item: [first person starting in shears]<ref>Only in the Latin.</ref> Conduct yourself thus in the onset. Stand with your right foot forward and step well in to him in the bind. If he then also thus stands against you, with his right foot forward, and [he] binds simultaneously with you on the dagger, so step with your left leg in behind him and grab with your left hand at his right elbow. Turn him therewith away from you and with the right hand over his shoulder on his breast.
 +
 
 +
If he has thus seized you for a throw, so stab between both your legs though at his genitals.
  
In this technique you do thus: put your right leg between his both feet, grab with your right arm over his left shoulder. If your opponent has taken hold of you thus, then put your right hand on his neck and pull it down in front. If he tries to avert this with his left hand, then grab hold between his legs with your left hand and turn to your right, that way you will throw him out of the wheel.
+
If he thus stabs you at your genitals, so nimbly snatch his right hand with your left and throw him therewith in front of himself on his face.

 +
 
 +
Item: when you come together with the onset and simultaneously with one another have bound on and have come to a throw so conduct yourself thus.
  
Execute this technique thus: stand with your left leg forward and take hold of his left shoulder with your left hand. If he does so, then put your left arm on his neck, and do as if you were to strike a leg hook with your right leg. Then, thrust your right elbow into his chest, and push him to your right side, as well as hooking his leg, and you will throw him on his back on his right side.
+
When you both have fallen so that his head comes between both your legs, immediately grab with your left hand between his genitals and with your right [hand] under his right armpit over his right arm so that his dagger lies over your arm, and kneel on his breast well by his neck so that you also trap his left hand with your leg. And if he strikes his right foot around the neck, so press him with your left hand at his genitals well under himself, so you hold him captive and he can do you no harm.

When you both go together, do thus: stand with your right foot forward and put your left foot outside his left foot Then, grab hold of his left arm from the outside with your right hand, and with your left around his waist. If your opponent holds you thus, and is about to swing you around, then step back into the scales, and grab with your right hand around his neck and with your left on his right shoulder. If he has taken hold of you thus, and has stepped back into the scales, then let go of your right hand from his left elbow, and put it on his neck and press him down to the ground.
+
If he has thus seized you by the neck and wants to pull you with him in falling, so release your left hand from his right and strike with your left inwardly in the middle of his arm on your left side so he must let go the arm which he has he has thrown around your neck and you escape the fall.

[75] '''A throw from the blocked leg hook'''
+
[1] '''First engaging into grappling'''
  
Step forward with your left foot and grab him on the outside of his left elbow with your right hand, and with your left on his upper right arm. If he holds you this way(ger. and is about to pull you to him), then reach with your right hand under his left armpit and grab hold onto his leather collar, and with your left onto his right arm. Then strike a leg hook with your right leg from the inside of his left leg and pull him to you with your right hand, and with your left hand push him away from you, and he will fall on his back.
+
Do as follows when going towards him in this wrestling device: first of all, pay attention to whether he comes at you with his arms high or low. If he holds his arms high, then you do not need to worry about him, and use whatever techniques you want. If his arms are low, however, then keep the thumbs in your hands closed, your left hand on your left side, your right hand att your right side, and your left foot forward. Then enter the scales position, and you have your advantage over him.

[76] '''A leg break with a throw'''
+
[2] '''The first wind-off before the hand'''*
 +
 
 +
Do as follows in this technique: stand with your left and right arm as described before, so that you may see what your opponent is up to, your left foot forward, and your left hand closed beside your left leg. If your opponent advances on you like this and grabs you by the right shoulder with his left hand, then wind your right closed hand on the outside over his left arm and press down, that way his attempt is countered.
  
When you both go together then step with your left leg inside his right and grab hold on the outside of his upper left arm, and with reach with your left around his waist.If he holds you thus and is about to pull you in, then grab with your left hand inside his right arm and reach with your right behind his back  around his waist and onto his right side. Then kick his right shin with your right foot as hard as you can and you will break it. Then, pull him to you, and you will throw him over.

If your opponent advances upon you as mentioned above, then use this technique: reach over his left arm with your left arm and grab hold of the inside of his left leg just above the knee, and step behind him on his right side with your left foot. Now, do keep in mind that your stepping and grabbing him are done at the same time, and fast. Do that, and you will throw him over. Note also that this technique can be done from both sides.
  
Do as follows: If your opponent stands with both legs together, and has taken hold of your left arm with his right hand, and with his left over your right arm in your right armpit, then take hold with your left hand in his right shoulder and pull him to you. Then reach with your left arm under his left armpit and grab hold of his waist and turn from your left to your right side, and you will throw him over the short hip or the waist.

Lift up with your left, and push hard to your right with your right hand by his neck, and throw him over your forward leg.

[62] '''A hand break'''
|
 
'''The first'''
 
  
When you wrestle with someone with outstreched arms, break free with one arm and reach out towards his leg as if you wanted to pull it towards you, and as he then sees it and pulls back his foot, then reach after his leg with the arm extended, and step with your foot behind him in the traverse, that way you will throw him on his back. This can be done on both sides.
+
Do as described in this device: when you both go together, remember to stand with your left foot forward, and if he then is standing in front of you with open hands, then take hold with right hand onto his right thumb, and with your left hand behind his right hand, that way you will break it. Then take a good step with your right leg on his left side and with your left hand well around his waist, and you will throw him over your left hip.

[81] '''A throw from the tongs'''
|
 
'''Another'''
 
  
When your opponent is holding you in the same manner, and has both arms closed together, and is about to step forward, then grab your right hand with your left, and pull it forward, then you break/dislocate his arm. This can be done on both sides.
+
When you face your opponent in this device, do thus: step with your left leg outside his right. If he then stands with his right foot forward and grabs you by the crotch, then swiftly take hold of his left hand with your right and pull him towards you, and with your left hand grab him by his left elbow. If he holds you this way, and pulls you close, then grab hold with your right hand on his left shoulder and onto his collar. If he holds you thus then let go with your left hand from his left elbow, and put it on his neck, that way you will throw him from the tongs over your left leg.

[82] '''A toppling from the tongs'''
|
 
'''Another wrestling technique'''
 
  
When you are wrestling someone on equal holds, then note that as soon as he wants to pull you towards him or press you, you grab hold of his right arm with both of yours, and put your shoulder under his right arm. If he then wants to pull you over with force, then make sure that you grab hold of one of his legs. This can be done on both sides.
+
In this device you do as follows: stoop down into the scales, so that your right leg comes forward, and if he then stands upright, with his right leg forward when you stand in the scales, then reach out and with your left hand over his chest and and grab hold of his left side. If he does this to you, then quickly grab on to his left hand and pull him to you, put your right hand on his head and push down. Further, if he does this to you, then take hold of with your right arm behind both his knees, and push with your upper grip hard, on your left side and with your lower grip lift up high and you will topple him over from the tong hold.

[84] '''A tong hold throw from the scales'''
|
 
'''What to do if someone is too strong'''
 
  
If your opponent is stronger than you, and is about to lift one of your legs up forcefully, then put your leg around his leg. If someone on the other hand has closed his leg around yours, then lift up his foot and pull it towards you. If you then sweep his free leg with your closed legs, he will fall backwards. This can be done on the other side as well.
+
When you face your opponent in this device, then do as described here below: enter the scales so that you stand with your left leg behind his right. Then quickly, grab hold of his left leg with your right hand, and put your head on his chest. If he uses this on you, then put both your hands on his head and push down. If he pushes you down this way with both hands on your head, then put your right hand on his face and push it away from you and with your lower hand pull towards you, and you will throw him on his back with the tong hold.

'''Worth noting'''
 
  
If you wrestle with someone who is stronger than you, make sure above all that you hook his leg well, and thrust him backwards, and then pull him towards you again, then sweep the leg you hooked, and you will then throw him on his back. This can be done on both sides.
+
Do thus in this device: step forward with your right foot and grab hold of his genitals with your right hand and with your left onto his chest. If he holds you this way with both hands then take hold with your left hand underneath on his right arm and with your right on the outside of his left and bend them over each other. Then step with your right leg on his right side and swing him over your right side to the ground.

Item: conduct yourself thus: set your left [marginalia] '''foot forward and go from below up to his face. If he then also stands against you with his right foot forward, so seize your dagger, the thumb by your rondel, and thrust to him from above at his face.
+
When you are in the approach with your left foot standing forward, then follow in after with your right leg inside of his left. In the same instant, cut to the left side of his head with your long edge. If he moves to strike a cut from above at you like this, and you are standing with your left foot toward him, then cut to the left side of his head with your long edge to oppose him, thereby taking away his cut on your left side. At that moment, cut him from his right side upon his left so that your short edge on his sword blade comes close to his grip. Next, let your left hand go from your pommel and take hold of your blade with inverted hand and plant it on the left side of his neck. Wrench to your left side, and thus you may be able to throw him over your left leg. If he has planted upon your neck like this and wishes to throw you, then quickly let your right hand go from your grip and plant it on his left elbow. Now strongly shove away from you and kick him in the ankle with your right foot around his left. With this, pull towards you below and shove away from you above. Thus, you throw him backwards.
 
+
|  
If he thus thrusts above at you so bind equally with him. Immediately grip with your left hand above over his right arm and seize the dagger and the arm together. Immediately wind with your dagger on your right so you break his arm.

Item: when you both in the onset come together so, stand with your right foot forward and stab at his genitals.

If you stand in the approach with your right foot toward the man, then step in after with your left leg and cut to the left side of his head. If he is coming in at you in the approach with his left leg toward you and has taken your cut away, then transfer your left hand from your pommel to the sword blade and place it on the left side of his neck. Wrench him with this on your right side. If he has set strongly upon you like this, then allow your sword to quickly fall away and set your right hand outside on his left elbow and shove it away from you. If he has taken away your planting, then let your right hand go from your handle and grab his left knee and lift it up high. If he has seized you in this way and intends to throw you, then grab his right hand with your left and push it down, thereby taking it away. In the same instant, hit him in the ankle with your left foot around his left. Pull that strongly toward you while you pull his right hand to you with your left and also push him strongly away from you above with your right hand, thus you throw him backwards.

If he has thus taken your thrust away so step with your left leg in front on his right foot. Immediately grip with your left hand behind around his neck and tug therewith strongly toward yourself so you will throw him in front underneath yourself.
+
When you go to the man upright in the wrestling with arms crossed in the scissors, then step in to him with your left leg and, out of the scissors, grab over and around his body with your left hand, and inside and around his left leg with your inverted right hand. Lift high upwards with your right while pushing away from you above toward your left side. Thus, you throw him over your left hip. If you have thrown him like this, then fall with your right leg between both of his by his crotch. With your left knee, kneel upon the muscle of his right arm, and grasp the muscle of his left arm with your right hand. Thus you are able to hold him down so that he cannot get away or free himself from you. As you do this, you may be able to stab him in the eyes or face with a dagger in your left hand. Or you may be able to throw dirt or sand in his face and deal with him as you wish.

If you want to counter that, so release your right hand from your dagger and grip therewith well under his left elbow.<ref>Note: left is corrected from a right. Left is correct.</ref> Immediately shove strongly away from yourself so you can throw him and so you will be free from his hurts.

Immediately twist<ref>''Reib'' - strong twisting, bending, rotating motion.</ref> therewith from yourself so you will break his arm.
+
Present yourself like so in this piece with the approach: Step in there with your right leg and shoot the point of your dussack high over both his arms into his face. If you are then in the approach with your left leg coming in there toward him, and he is thrusting at your face like this, then go up in the Crown with your dussack, with your left hand forward by the point and with that take away his thrust to your right side. In that instant, release your left hand from your dussack out of the Crown and cut at him from your right side toward his face. If he cuts at your face like this, then go against his cut with the long edge and take it away on your left side. In the same moment, let the weak of your dussack fall away and step in with your right leg and cut toward his right arm. In that instant, pull back away from him.
 
+
|  
If you want to prevent him breaking the arm, so let your dagger also fall and grip with your left hand forward on his right. Press therewith below him thus you will be free of the arm break. Immediately step with your left leg in front of his right and seize him with your left hand by his neck so you will throw him over the same leg.

| <p>[18] '''Another Grapple out of the Dagger'''</p>
 +
 
 +
Hold yourself like so in this piece in the approach: Step in with your left leg and stab him with a high thrust toward his face. If he stabs at you like this, then take it away with the cross of your dagger of your left side. At the same moment, grab the point of his dagger from below, with your left hand over your right arm, and turn it downwards so that he must give it to you. If he has wrenched away your dagger like this, then grab his right hand with your left hand inside and close by his hand while you duck your head down low so that you bring his right arm solidly upon your left shoulder. In the same moment, go inside between both of his legs by his nuts with your right hand. Lift strongly upwards while you pull his arm downwards toward you, thus you are able to throw him or carry him wherever you wish.

| {{paget|page:Cod.icon. 393 I|182v|jpg}}
Item: conduct yourself thus in this device. Stand with your left foot forward and hold your dagger, the thumb by your rondel, the point against the man. Immediately go out and step with your right leg towards him and stab at him from above with strength at his face.
+
| {{section|page:Cod.10826 118v.png|Latin|lbl=118v}}
 
 
If he then thus stabs at you and you, with your left leg forward, stand against him so step with your right outwardly behind his right. Immediately go from below well up with the shears and take his stab away.
 
 
 
If he has thus taken away your stab, grip with your left hand in front on his right and wind his hand so that the point is turned [twisted] '''over him.
 
 
 
So if you both have thus set on one another, so let your dagger fall and grip with your right hand at his right leg and with your left under his left armpit with crossed arms so you may throw him from the shears.

| <p>[19] '''A Reverse with a Throw'''</p>
  
Item: conduct yourself thus in this onset. Stand with your right foot forward. If he then also stands against you with his right foot forward so stab him from above at his face.
+
Present yourself with the approach like so in this piece: Step in with your right leg and stab at his face or chest with a high thrust. If he stabs from above at you like this, then put the cross of your dagger upon his dagger and take away his thrust. Now, wind out from below on top of his dagger. Once you have wound his dagger away, then grab him by the left arm, going inside with your inverted left hand close by his hand. Next, turn yourself so that you bring his left arm firmly upon your right shoulder and stab back into his privates with your dagger in your right hand. If he stabs at you like this, then fall upon his right arm with your right hand close by his hand. Pull that strongly to you and with your left arm which he has taken hold of you, push strongly away from you on your left side. Thus you throw him backwards over your left leg.
 
+
|  
If he thus stabs at your face so stab in also equally with him. Simultaneously set aside his stab with your right arm.
+
| {{section|page:Cod.10826 119r.png|German|lbl=119r}}
 
+
| {{paget|page:Cod.icon. 393 I|183r|jpg}}
If he thus sets aside your stab so attack him from above with your right hand with the dagger forward over his right arm and with the left hand set in behind his right elbow. Wind over him so that his right arm is under him, so you will break it.
+
| {{section|page:Cod.10826 119r.png|Latin|lbl=119r}}
 
 
If he thus desires to break your arm, so set your right leg inwardly in front of his right. Immediately grip with your left hand well behind his right elbow, shove him therewith over himself so you will be free of [his] '''grip. Immediately step doubly at him and stab at his face.

Item: comport yourself thus with this onset. When you come before the man, stand with your right foot forward. If he stands then thus against you with his right foot forward, so stab him at his face.
+
Present yourself like this in this piece from the approach: Step in there with your right leg and stab him with a high thrust to his face or chest. If he thrusts from above at you like this, and you are also standing in a high thrust against him, then take the thrust away to your left side with the cross of your dagger. In the same moment, grab his right arm from below with your left hand close by his hand. If he then wants to grab you with his left hand upon your right, then allow your dagger to fall and seize his left hand with your right. In that moment, settle yourself very low in the scales with your body and kick him in the stomach with your left leg as you lower yourself to fall over backwards. As you fall, come to the help of your left leg with your right. Thus, you fling him over yourself using both your legs.
 
+
|  
If he stabs thus above at you so take that of his away with your left hand behind his right elbow, immediately stab him at his genitals.

If he stabs at you thus below, so quickly snatch with your left hand his right and take that away therewith. Immediately set your right leg inwardly before his right and tug your dagger immediately quickly and stab him doubly at his face.
+
| {{section|page:Cod.10826 119v.png|Latin|lbl=119v}}

Item: when you-all come together with the onset and both step in with right legs so stab him in his face.
+
Hold yourself like this in this piece in the approach: Step in toward him with your left leg and go up out from the lower guard with a thrust to his face. If he stabs you from below like this and you stand against him in the crossed guard with your right foot forward, then step in with your left leg and cut from above to oppose his thrust as you step. Push it downwards so that you take his thrust away. If he has cut at you in this way and taken away your thrust, then wind your blade from your left side against his halberd on his left side, thus you block him. In the same moment, then pull the halberd and thrust toward his face or chest. If he stabs at you like this, then take it away with your blade on your left side. In the same instant, cut to his head with your blade. Turn yourself twice back away from him.
 
+
|  
If you want to defend against this stab, so go also against him with a stab to his face. Immediately grip with your left hand behind his right elbow turn his stab therewith.

If he has thus seized you and set your stab aside so seize your dagger in your left hand and stab at his breast and step back therewith. Immediately seize your dagger again in your right hand.
+
| {{section|page:Cod.10826 120r.png|Latin|lbl=120r}}
 
 
If he has thus stepped back so tear doubly at him and seek his openings below and above. Immediately stab him therewith at his right side.
 
 
 
If he then tears at you and stabs thus at you, so take away his stab. Immediately spring with your right foot well on his right side and stab him therewith at his neck. And pull yourself back from him into the change.

Item: conduct yourself thus in this device. Wind yourself with stabs and with thrusts at him [so] '''that your right leg in this onset comes forward. Immediately stab at his face.
+
Present yourself like so in this piece from the approach: Step in with your left leg and cut a high cut to his head. If he cuts upon you from above like this, and you have your right foot in front, then step in with your left leg and go up high in front of your head in the Crown with your dussack, thereby parrying his cut. If he has taken away your cut like this, then step in with your right leg and wind your front end to his face or chest from below. If he has wound into you with his point like this, then fall upon his halberd with the Crown and push it far below, thus you take that away. In the same moment, grab the back end of his halberd with your left hand and lift his halberd. Step in with your right leg and cut to his head in the same instant. If he then parries that, stab him in the face or chest. Immediately pull yourself back away from him with a Double Cut.

[1] '''A High Thrust against a Low Thrust with the Rappier'''
  
Item: hold yourself thus with [scribal typo] '''this device. Stand with your left foot forward and hold your dagger, the thumb at your pommel. Immediately stab him at his face or the breast.
+
It happens like this in this technique: hold your Rappier in your right hand in front of your forward leg in a low thrust position directed towards his groin. He then stands with his left foot opposite you and thrusts towards your face at the upper opening (as in illustration). Then drive up with your Rappier out of the low thrust position, fall over his Rappier and with that take away his thrust to your left side with your short edge. Then immediately step with your left leg in the triangle on your right side and strike to his forward leg.
 
 
If you then also thus stand against him with your left foot forward and he thus stabs at you from above, so stab also outwardly at him over his right arm at his face. And in the binding-on seize the two daggers together.
 
 
 
If he has thus seized the two daggers together, so grip with your left hand behind his right elbow. Shove therewith strongly over itself so he must release to you your dagger again or you will break his arm. Immediately thrust nimbly at his face.
 
 
 
If he thus thrusts at your face, so take that away from him on your right side with your dagger on your right arm. Immediately spring with your right foot on his right side and stab him behind at his neck or his right side. Change yourself thus twice back from him.

[2] '''An Understich against an Oberhaw'''
  
Item: conduct yourself thus with the onset. Stand with your left foot forward and hold your dagger, the thumb by your rondel. Immediately stab him at his left side.
+
Hold yourself like this with this technique: stand with your left foot forward and hold your Rappier in an Understich (low thrust position) opposite the opponent on your right side with the blade along your left thigh. He then stands with his right foot opposite you and strikes from above to your head. Then drive up with your Rappier out of the low thrust position and with that fall over his Rappier to take away his strike to your left side with your short edge. Then immediately follow outward with your right leg and do an extended strike from above to his head.
  
If he thus stabs in at you and you stand with your right foot forward, the dagger in your left hand, the thumb at your pommel, with crossed arms, so fall to him with your right hand on his right [hand]. Immediately stab him under his right arm at his breast.
+
If he strikes like this to your upper opening, then take it away with your long edge and immediately step back. As you step back pay attention that you strike his right forward set leg and with that yank back away from him.
 
+
| {{paget|page:MS Dresd.C.94|139v|png}}
If he thus stabs at you at your breast, so grip with your left hand in front on his dagger and wind it over his right arm so he must release his dagger to you.

| {{section|page:Cod.10826 122v.png|German|lbl=122v}}
 
+
| {{paget|page:Cod.icon. 393 II|054v|jpg}}
If he has thus wound your dagger out from you, so grip you also with your right hand in front on his dagger. Wind therewith over itself so you wind his dagger also out of the hand. Immediately step back with your right leg.
+
| {{section|page:Cod.10826 122v.png|Latin|lbl=122v}}
 
 
If he then tears after you, so step again with your right leg and set aside his stab with your dagger on your right arm. Immediately stab him at his face and turn yourself therewith back from him.

Item: hold yourself thus with this device in the onset. When you come before the man set your right foot forward and stab him at his left side [so] '''that you have your thumb by your rondel.
+
It happens like this with this technique at the closing: he stands with his right foot forward and holds his Rappier with his right hand outside of his right leg. You then stand opposite him with both feet together and hold your Rappier up high in the Zornhaw over your head (as in illustration). He thinks you will then strike him wrathfully from above, but step in with your right leg and wind with a Verborgnen Stich (concealed thrust) behind your head and forward from your right side to your left into his face with a Nachtruck (after-press).
  
If he should thus stab at you, and you stand with your right foot against him, so fall nimbly with your left hand on his dagger and wind it out of his hand, simultaneously stab him with your dagger in your right hand at his face.
+
If he has wound a thrust like this towards your face, then take it away with your short edge to your left side, immediately follow outward with your left leg and strike him with the same thrust to his right opening that you then see. With that step back away from him.

[4] '''An Underhaw against a High Thrust'''
  
If he has thus seized you and desires to break your arm, so stab him with the dagger in your left hand - which you have taken from him - strongly to his face so he must release you. Immediately let your dagger<ref>The one in the left hand?</ref> fall and set your left foot behind his right and grip him with your left hand around his neck so you will throw him over that same leg. And [so] '''all his work is countered.
+
Hold yourself like this with this technique at the closing: stand with your left foot forward and hold your Rappier in an Underhaw outside next to your left thigh. He then stands with his right foot opposite you and fires a high thrust towards your face or chest (as in illustration). Then go up with your Rappier out of the Underhaw and take his thrust away with your long edge and at the same time follow outward with your right leg and strike to his head. Then immediately step with your right leg behind your left in the triangle and wind a thrust towards him from your left to his right side.

[5] '''The Winding Thrust with a Concealed Point against an Abnemen'''
  
Item: wind yourself in with stabs and thrusts in the onset against the man.
+
It happens like this with this technique at the closing: step in with your left leg and thrust with an extended arm behind your head forward to his face. (Verborgnen Stich/Ort:  Concealed Thrust/Point)
  
And when you come before the man so set your right foot forwards and hold your dagger, the thumb by your rondel, and set yourself well down in the Scales. Reach therewith out of the Shears up before him.
+
If he thrusts towards you like this from above and you stand with your right foot opposite him, then drive up with your Rappier and take it away from your right side to his left with your long edge (as in illustration).
  
If he stands then with his right foot against you, his dagger well upright in the high [guard], the thumb on his pommel and desires to thrust in your face, so go to him with your right hand with your dagger around his right leg and with the left grip him at his right arm so his stab is taken away.
+
If he has parried you like this, then wind through low with a Lufftstich (air thrust) to his face or chest.
  
If he has thus taken away your stab, so set to him with your left hand on his chin.
+
If he thrusts towards you like this, take it away with your long edge to your right side. Then immediately follow outward with your left and strike or thrust to his left forward set leg. If he persists and follows after you, then thrust to his face or chest from above and with that step back away from him.
 
+

[12] '''Two other Techniques with Free Dagger and Rappier'''
  
Item: Hold yourself thus in the approach. Stand with your right foot forward and hold the dagger in your right […] '''the point against the man. And step therewith with your left foot in with an over-stab so you have thrust at him in the face or the breast.
+
Hold yourself like this with this technique: grasp your Dagger in the left hand and your Rappier in the right and step in with your left leg to immediately strike with your strong to his head and with your Dagger thrust over his right arm to his body.
  
If he wishes thus to stab at you and you stand in the Scales [with your] '''right foot forward with crossed arms and hold the dagger outward [on] '''your arm. So step out of the Shears with you left foot into him and in the […] '''handily in under his left foot set [the] '''leg inward [to] '''bend the knee joint in at […] '''the point stands outwardly over itself and step in so that your left foot well on his right knee joint and you stand with your body well between his two feet. Immediately […] '''so heave him there with his foot over itself. And with your left hand grab him nimbly therewith at his throat and shove therewith well above from yourself and under by the foot heave well over itself [so] '''you throw him back.

If he strikes and thrusts towards you like this, then take his strike away with the long edge of your Rappier (as in illustration), set your Dagger inside on his left arm, and with that shove away from you to your right side. Thus you also take away his Dagger thrust. Then immediately step back with your left leg and yank your Rappier above you and wind a thrust from below to his groin.
  
If he he thus seized you above and below, so grab with your left [hand] '''and inwardly on his arm and thrust therewith strongly under itself, and with the high stab [thrust] '''strongly at the face or the breast so you make yourself free from the throw.

[46] '''Another throw at the dagger'''
+
[13] '''A Thrust from Below against One from Above'''
  
Item [stind?]: If you both come together in the onset so that your left foot stands forward and you stand in the lower Scales and you have your dagger in the right hand, so lay the dagger’s blade outside on your arm and hold thus your hand with the dagger next to your right leg in the guard [posture, stance].
+
It happens like this at the closing with this technique: step in opposite him with your left leg and wind a Rappier thrust from below with strength to his body.
  
If he thus steps in front of you in the Scales and he stands with his [??lower??] '''[ge..nen] '''[ge..ch?] '''[tibia in Latin] '''leg upright in the high thrust the point turned against the man, so step with your left leg inwardly in front of his left and stab him therewith above at this face.
+
If he thrusts low towards you like this and you also stand opposite him with your left foot, then drop the crossguard of your Dagger onto his Rappier’s blade and with that take his thrust out to your left side.
  
If he thus thrusts also at your face, so grab with your left hand on his right arm and immediately stab him inwardly under his left leg in through and heave therewith his leg well over itself and shove above with the left his right well over itself, so you bring him into disorder [schwerhe] '''[weakness, hardship, trouble, difficulty, vulnerability, out of balance] '''and to the throw.
+
If he has set aside your low thrust like this, then thrust with your Dagger to his chest (as in illustration).
  
If he has thus seized you below and above and brought you into disorder, so fall nimbly with your left upper hand on his left shoulder in around his neck and tug therewith strongly to yourself so he must fall to the ground with you.
+
If he has also thrust towards you like this with his Dagger, step back with your left leg and go up with your Dagger and with that take him aside to your right side. Then immediately step in quickly once again with your left leg and thrust with your Rappier out of the Bogen with strength from above to his face or chest.
  
If he has thus seized you by the neck and wants to pull you with him in falling, so release your left hand from his right and strike with your left inwardly in the middle of his arm on your left side so he must let go the arm which he has he has thrown around your neck and you escape the fall.
+
If he thrusts high towards you like this, set this aside with the long edge of your Rappier and then immediately yank your left leg back and thrust low to his body. With that step back from him into a good Versazung.

[14] '''A Thrust from Below against an Oberhaw'''
  
Item: if you both stand with your left legs forward, upright before one another and you hold the dagger in your right hand, the thumb behind over the pommel, the man in the High [stance or guard] '''to a high stab, the point turned [against]<ref>Possible abbreviation of gegen – geg.</ref> the [man], so stab him from above at his face, and step therewith with your right leg into him so the [???] '''stab goes in powerfully.
+
Hold yourself like this with this technique at the closing: step in opposite him with your right leg and fire a low thrust with your Rappier to his body.
  
If he stabs thus at you and you stand with your left leg forward upright with the body and hold your dagger by the grip in the right hand so grab with the left hand well forward on your blade. Wind that in and go with upright arms in against his stab and take it away on your blade between both your hands and step therewith with your right leg into him and in that same [action] '''so fall with your dagger and both hands over his head and hold the dagger by the point and grip strongly in both your hands and tug him therewith, bend his neck under itself to him so you may throw him.  
+
If he thrusts low towards you like this, then drop your Dagger onto his Rappier’s blade and with that take him away to your left side. At the same time strike with an Oberhaw to his head.
 +
If he strikes high towards you like this, step in with your left leg and parry his strike with your Dagger up high. Then immediately drop your left arm over his Rappier’s blade and with that wind it under your left shoulder. If he then intends to thrust you high with his Dagger, take this aside with your Rappier to your left side. Then immediately step back with your left leg and thrust with your Rappier from below to his body.
  
If he has seized you above and pulled you thus under yourself in front of yourself so twist your right arm and stab from above behind [immediately or in forward] '''on his left arm and grab therewith with your left inward well in front on the arm by his hand and shove therewith strongly on the side from you and in that so wind yourself with your body from your left side on your right well under through so you wind yourself thus [away] '''from him.
+
If he thrusts you from below like this, then strike the thrust away with your Rappier and immediately step in the triangle on your left side and thrust to his right side. With that yank yourself back away from him.

[48] '''A Throw at the Dagger'''
+
[15] '''A High Thrust with the Dagger and Rappier Abnemen (parry)'''  
  
Item: If you stand with your right foot forward, and have placed yourself with the body under itself in the Scales, and lay your left arm over your right arm crosswise in front of your breast; hold the dagger in the Shears, in the right hand by the grip, the point turned over itself.
+
It happens like this with this technique at the closing: step in opposite him with your right leg and hold your Dagger in your left hand behind your body and at the same time wind the Concealed Point from your right side to your left behind your head forward to his face or chest.
  
If he then lies thus with stretched-out arms in the low Scales, and you thus stand forward with your right foot and you hold your dagger in the right hand by the grip, the thumb on the pommel thus in the High up over your head, so step with your right leg in to him, and stab him from above at his face or the breast.
+
If he thrusts towards you like this and you stand opposite him with your left leg, then take this away with Dagger and Rappier crosswise to your right side (as in illustration). Then immediately yank your Rappier up away from his Rappier’s blade and thrust low to his body, but remain with the Dagger on his Rappier. With that he can injure you knowing to thrust.
  
If he stabs thus at you, and you with crossed arms stand thus in the low Scales, so go against with the left hand on his right arm, and seize him well by the elbow and step therewith with your left leg outwardly in front of his right, and stab him therewith with your dagger well outward, in through under the back of his knee and heave therewith with the arm well over itself, and with the left, shove above his right well from you, so he must fall backward; then he is trapped above and below, and brought into difficulties.
+
If he thrusts low towards you like this, then yank your Dagger forward, drop it well forward on his Rappier’s blade and take his thrust away. Then immediately step back with your right leg and thrust again low to his body. Thus you avoid injury and may once again come together with him to work.

[16] '''The Mordwurff (Fatal Throw) against a Thrust'''
  
Item: If one meets you thus in the onset, and you stand with your left foot forward, and he stabs you thus at the body, so step with your left foot against him and grab in nimbly with your left hand at his right arm, and push therewith strongly under itself, so you take away his stab. If he then thus takes away your stab, so spring with your right behind his left foot and stab him [in that] '''nimbly at his face; so that you all can also work at one another.
+
Hold yourself like this with this technique: stand with your right foot opposite him and hold your Dagger with your left hand behind your body. He then also stands with his right foot opposite you and fires a high thrust out of the Bogen towards your face or chest. So drive up with your Rappier onto his Rappier’s blade, and with that take his high thrust away to your left side. Then immediately you will strike him similarly from above so that he must parry high with his Dagger. You then thrust to the opening on his body. Then yank your Dagger forward with your left hand such that the pommel stands on the ball (of the thumb) and the fingers directly on the hilt. Then immediately throw your Dagger with strength at his body (as in illustration). Thus you throw him to the ground.

Hold yourself like this when you come together in this technique: step in with your left leg and thrust with your Sword to his face.
  
Item: If you encounter each other thus in the device, so step with your right behind his right foot and stab with your right hand from below upwards at his throat and seize him with your left hand behind around his neck at the left shoulder.
+
If he thrusts to your face like this and you stand with your right foot opposite him, then take this away with your Buckler on your left side and at the same time thrust him with your sword extended to his face (as in illustration). If he likewise takes this away with his Buckler, then step in with your left leg and thrust high over his Buckler with an extended arm to his face such that the short edge is directed downwards.
  
If he has then thus set out [attacked], so step with your right outwardly behind his right foot and grab quickly with your left at his right hand at the dagger and push therewith under itself [down] '''and grab with your right arm under through his right [arm] '''and stab the dagger in his throat.
+
If he thrusts high to your face like this, then drive your Buckler upwards and displace his thrust. Then immediately step back with your left leg and strike to his left arm.
  
If he thus stabs at you, so spring with your left behind his right foot and pull him by the left shoulder strongly to you so he has to give up from his stab and you move him under yourself.
+
If he strikes you like this, then set this aside with your long edge and at the same time hit him in the chest with your Buckler. Then yank yourself back from him with an Oberhaw.

 +
It happens like this when you come for the opponent in this technique: stand with your right foot forward and do an extended thrust to his chest.
 +
 +
If he then thrusts towards you like this and you likewise stand with your right foot opposite him, then drop your Buckler downward and displace his thrust with that and at the same time snap from below to thrust to his chest such that your long edge is turned upwards. If he displaces this with his Buckler, then spring with your left foot in front of his right and strike his right arm.
 +
 +
If he strikes you like this, then step with your left leg in the triangle and take it away with your Buckler. Then immediately yank your Sword towards you and thrust from below to his chest.
 +
 +
If he thrust towards you from below like this, then drop onto his sword with your Sword and Buckler so that this is taken away. Then immediately wind behind your head and forward to thrust to his face. With that yank yourself away from him to the rear.

[24] '''To Take the Sword'''
|
 
[56] '''An attack with a throw'''
 
  
Item: If you encounter one another thus in the fighting so spring with your left inwardly between his two feet, let the dagger fall and grab nimbly with your right hand at his right elbow, and travel with your left hand forward around his neck and grasp him on his left shoulder and pull above strongly toward yourself so you throw him in front of the leg.
+
Note this technique when you go together and the opponent has you in the bind: stand with your left foot forward and he stands opposite you with his right. Hold your Sword to your Buckler in your left hand and catch his sword blade well forward near the point with your right. With that snatch it out of his hand (as in illustration.
  
If he has thus seized you, so spring quickly with your right foot into a triangle and with the left foot back and stab with your right hand at his body so you make yourself free of him.
+
If he has grabbed your sword out of your hand like this, then step in with your left leg and catch his sword that is in his left hand and thrust your buckler high onto his left arm so that he must release his sword. If he then strikes at you with pommel and cross, drive high with your Buckler and displace this. Then step back twice as you take your sword in your hand again. If he then travels after you, quickly go in again onto his blade and wind your point to his face.

[33] '''The Cut from Both Sides'''
|
 
[65] '''How One Shall Hold Down a Thrown Opponent'''
 
  
When you go to the man upright in the wrestling with arms crossed in the scissors, then step in to him with your left leg and, out of the scissors, grab over and around his body with your left hand, and inside and around his left leg with your inverted right hand. Lift high upwards with your right while pushing away from you above toward your left side. Thus, you throw him over your left hip. If you have thrown him like this, then fall with your right leg between both of his by his crotch. With your left knee, kneel upon the muscle of his right arm, and grasp the muscle of his left arm with your right hand. Thus you are able to hold him down so that he cannot get away or free himself from you. As you do this, you may be able to stab him in the eyes or face with a dagger in your left hand. Or you may be able to throw dirt or sand in his face and deal with him as you wish.
+
It happens like this when you go together with this technique: step in with your right leg and cut to the right side of his neck.

[66] '''A Catch against a Thrust'''
 
  
If your adversary is going in toward you, and he brings a high thrust with his dagger against you, then step in with your right leg and take his thrust away with the cross of your dagger on your left side. Now quickly let your dagger fall and take hold of him with your left hand inside on his right arm close to his hand and your right hand on the front left side of his neck. Next, quickly hit him in the ankle with your left foot around his right, pulling that strongly towards you; push him strongly away from you above. Thus, you throw him backwards.
+
If he thrusts towards you like this, displace it with your long edge and Buckler, strike his sword to his right side and immediately thrust from below to his chest. If he displaces this with his Buckler, then strike him double to his forward set leg.

[34] '''An Abnemen against a Low Thrust'''
|
+
 
[67] '''Stripping a Dagger, Which Comes from a Grapple'''
+
It happens like this with this technique when you go together: step in with your right leg and thrust low to his left leg.
 +
 
 +
If you then stand like this with the left leg opposite him and he thrusts afterwards, drop your Sword on his blade and push downward so that you displace his thrust (as in illustration). Then immediately strike to the left side of his head. If he displaces this with his Buckler, then take a winding thrust behind your head forward to his face or chest.
 +
 
 +
If he winds towards your face like this, then take this away with your long edge and with the short drop over his Sword blade and thrust to his chest.
  
Follow this piece like so: Step in with your left leg and stab toward his face or chest from above with your dagger. If he goes to you like this with a thrust, and you are standing with your left leg toward him, then follow in after with your right leg and go to his dagger with your dagger’s cross, taking away his thrust on your left side. If he has taken away your thrust like this, then reach your left hand under and through your right arm and catch his dagger by the point. Pull strongly downwards so that he must give the dagger to you. If he has stripped your dagger like this and wishes to skewer you, then fall upon the inside of his right arm with your left hand and push that down hard so that you take away his thrust. In the same instant fall to his throat with your right hand. If he wants to pounce upon you like this, then grab him under his right elbow with your left hand and lift upwards so that you take away his strike. Now hit him in the ankle with your right foot around his left and pull strongly with it towards you; push strongly away from you above so that you throw him backwards.
+
If he intends to thrust to your body like this, then step back with your left leg so that you move away from his thrust. Then immediately strike with a Creizhaw double to his left arm.

[35] '''A Groin Thrust against an Absezen'''
|
+
 
[68] '''A Grapple that Proceeds Out of a Reverse'''
+
When you go together with this technique hold yourself like this: step in with your left leg and thrust to his groin.
 +
 
 +
If he thrusts low towards you like this and you stand with your right leg opposite him, then drop your Sword and Buckler on his Sword blade well over near the hilt and push downward to set this aside (as in illustration). Then immediately step in with your left leg and strike with your Buckler to his face. If he displaces this with his Buckler, then yank your Sword back towards you and thrust from below towards his chest.
  
Since you both have gone against one another with high thrusts and have mutually wrenched each other’s daggers away, conduct yourself like so: Step with in toward him with your right leg and grab his right hand with your left. Twist his arm around as you turn yourself around so that you bring his right arm upon your left shoulder. In the same instant, grab him with your right hand all the way through between both of his thighs. Lift him forcefully upward and pull forward on his right arm. Thus, you carry him wherever you wish him to go, and you are also able to break his arm.
+
If he has set upon you low and high like this, then spring back with your left foot and thrust to his face. If he displaces this with his Sword, then step in again quickly with your left leg and strike an Oberhaw double to his head. Then immediately with that yank yourself back from him.

[36] '''A Bind from which a Throw Proceeds'''
|
+
 
[69] '''Another Grapple out of the Dagger'''
+
Hold yourself like this when you go together in this technique: step in with your left leg and strike him with an Oberhaw to his head. If he displaces this, then wind the short edge on his long and with that thrust to his face.
 +
 
 +
If he thrusts towards you like this, then set it aside with your Buckler, then immediately step in with your right leg and thrust from below to his chest or groin. If he displaces this, then strike to his head from above.
  
Hold yourself like so in this piece in the approach: Step in with your left leg and stab him with a high thrust toward his face. If he stabs at you like this, then take it away with the cross of your dagger of your left side. At the same moment, grab the point of his dagger from below, with your left hand over your right arm, and turn it downwards so that he must give it to you. If he has wrenched away your dagger like this, then grab his right hand with your left hand inside and close by his hand while you duck your head down low so that you bring his right arm solidly upon your left shoulder. In the same moment, go inside between both of his legs by his nuts with your right hand. Lift strongly upwards while you pull his arm downwards toward you, thus you are able to throw him or carry him wherever you wish.
+
If he strikes towards you like this, then displace it with your long edge, immediately step inward with your left leg between both of his, drop your right arm from above over both of his, and with that press towards you as you fall over him with your left arm over his chest and around his body from his right side. Then lift upwards with your left leg so that you throw him onto his face at your left side. (illustration does not match)

[37] '''An Absetzen with the Right Foot from which a Throw Proceeds'''

[70] '''A Reverse with a Throw'''
 
  
Present yourself with the approach like so in this piece: Step in with your right leg and stab at his face or chest with a high thrust. If he stabs from above at you like this, then put the cross of your dagger upon his dagger and take away his thrust. Now, wind out from below on top of his dagger. Once you have wound his dagger away, then grab him by the left arm, going inside with your inverted left hand close by his hand. Next, turn yourself so that you bring his left arm firmly upon your right shoulder and stab back into his privates with your dagger in your right hand. If he stabs at you like this, then fall upon his right arm with your right hand close by his hand. Pull that strongly to you and with your left arm which he has taken hold of you, push strongly away from you on your left side. Thus you throw him backwards over your left leg.
+
It happens like this when you come to the opponent with this technique: step in with your right leg and strike with a doubled Creizhaw to his right arm. If he sets this aside with his Sword, then step in with your left leg and set your Buckler at his blade. With that press away from you to your left side and then immediately thrust from below to his body.

If he strikes towards you like this, then displace it with your long edge and immediately thrust to his groin.
 +
 
 +
If he thrusts low towards you like this, then step with your right foot onto his Sword and Buckler, hold your Sword in your left hand at the middle of the blade next to your Buckler, and immediately drive with that around his neck so that you have his head between your arms (as in illustration). Then with that shove away from you low and yank towards you high so that you throw him forwards onto the face.

It happens like this when you come together with this technique: step in with your right leg and thrust to his face.
  
Present yourself like this in this piece from the approach: Step in there with your right leg and stab him with a high thrust to his face or chest. If he thrusts from above at you like this, and you are also standing in a high thrust against him, then take the thrust away to your left side with the cross of your dagger. In the same moment, grab his right arm from below with your left hand close by his hand. If he then wants to grab you with his left hand upon your right, then allow your dagger to fall and seize his left hand with your right. In that moment, settle yourself very low in the scales with your body and kick him in the stomach with your left leg as you lower yourself to fall over backwards. As you fall, come to the help of your left leg with your right. Thus, you fling him over yourself using both your legs.
+
If you then stand with your left leg opposite him and he thrusts upon you like this, drive against him with your Buckler and displace his thrust with that (as in illustration). Then immediately strike quickly with an Oberhaw to his left arm. If he displaces this with his Buckler, then wind in between his Sword and the Buckler with a thrust to his throat.

[39] '''A Groin Thrust with a Face Thrust with the Buckler'''
|
+
 
[1] '''A High Thrust against a Low Thrust with the Rappier'''
+
When you go together in this technique hold yourself like this: step in with your right leg and thrust with your Sword to his groin.
  
It happens like this in this technique: hold your Rappier in your right hand in front of your forward leg in a low thrust position directed towards his groin. He then stands with his left foot opposite you and thrusts towards your face at the upper opening (as in illustration). Then drive up with your Rappier out of the low thrust position, fall over his Rappier and with that take away his thrust to your left side with your short edge. Then immediately step with your left leg in the triangle on your right side and strike to his forward leg.
+
If he thrusts low towards you like this and you likewise stand with your right leg opposite him, take this away with your Sword to your left side and at the same time thrust your Buckler into his face (as in illustration). If he then fires out with his Buckler and takes this away, step in with your left leg and drive out with your Sword and immediately thrust from below to his chest.
  
If he strikes low towards you like this, then yank your left leg back and take it away with the long edge so that you avoid injury from him and can work against him once more.
+
If he thrusts from below towards you like this, then step back with your right leg and displace this with your Sword. Then immediately spring in once again with your right leg to his right side and strike with a Zwirchhaw to his right arm. If he displaces this with his Sword, then strike with an Oberhaw to his head. Then immediately yank yourself back from him.

[40] '''An Absetzen with the Buckler against an Oberhaw'''
|
+
When you go together with this technique then hold yourself like this: step in with your left leg and thrust from behind your Buckler forward to his face.
[2] '''An Understich against an Oberhaw'''
+
 
 +
If he thrusts towards you like this and you stand with your right foot opposite him, then drive against him with your Buckler and displace it. Then immediately step in with your left leg and strike with an Oberhaw to his head. If he displaces this to his left side with his Sword, then spring with your left leg to his right side in the triangle and thrust behind your head forward to his chest.
  
Hold yourself like this with this technique: stand with your left foot forward and hold your Rappier in an Understich (low thrust position) opposite the opponent on your right side with the blade along your left thigh. He then stands with his right foot opposite you and strikes from above to your head. Then drive up with your Rappier out of the low thrust position and with that fall over his Rappier to take away his strike to your left side with your short edge. Then immediately follow outward with your right leg and do an extended strike from above to his head.
+
If he thrusts towards you like this, then displace it with your long edge and immediately strike him to his forward set leg. If he displaces this with his Sword, then strike with a Doppelhaw (doubled strike) to his head.
  
If he strikes like this to your upper opening, then take it away with your long edge and immediately step back. As you step back pay attention that you strike his right forward set leg and with that yank back away from him.
+
If he strikes towards you double like this, then displace this with your Buckler and at the same time thrust from below to his face. With that yank yourself back from him.

[3] '''An Understich against a Zornhaw (wrath strike)'''
+
It happens like this when you go together with this technique: step in with your (right) leg and bind upon his Sword.
  
It happens like this with this technique at the closing: he stands with his right foot forward and holds his Rappier with his right hand outside of his right leg. You then stand opposite him with both feet together and hold your Rappier up high in the Zornhaw over your head (as in illustration). He thinks you will then strike him wrathfully from above, but step in with your right leg and wind with a Verborgnen Stich (concealed thrust) behind your head and forward from your right side to your left into his face with a Nachtruck (after-press).
+
If he then likewise stands with his right foot opposite you and has you in the bind, then yank your Sword to you and thrust from below to his chest.
  
If he has wound a thrust like this towards your face, then take it away with your short edge to your left side, immediately follow outward with your left leg and strike him with the same thrust to his right opening that you then see. With that step back away from him.
+
If he thrusts from below towards you like this, then displace this with your Buckler and strike with a Zwirchhaw to the right side of his face. Then immediately yank your left leg back and thrust to the left side of his chest.

[4] '''An Underhaw against a High Thrust'''
 
  
Hold yourself like this with this technique at the closing: stand with your left foot forward and hold your Rappier in an Underhaw outside next to your left thigh. He then stands with his right foot opposite you and fires a high thrust towards your face or chest (as in illustration). Then go up with your Rappier out of the Underhaw and take his thrust away with your long edge and at the same time follow outward with your right leg and strike to his head. Then immediately step with your right leg behind your left in the triangle and wind a thrust towards him from your left to his right side.
+
If he thrusts towards you like this, then take it away and immediately hold your Sword to your Buckler in your left hand, catch him by his right arm with your right hand and with that yank it over your left shoulder as you turn to your right side. Thus you break the arm or throw him (as in illustration).
  
If he thrusts at you like this, then strike against his thrust with an Underhaw with the long edge and with that spring back. Thus his thrust is averted.
+
If he intends to break your arm or throw you like this, then drop your Buckler and grab behind to his body. Thus you can hold on and he must fall with you.

+
Hold yourself like this with this technique when you go together: step in with your left leg and hold your Buckler extended in his face. At the same time yank your sword up high and strike strongly to his head.
  
If he strikes from above like this towards you and you stand with your right foot opposite him and hold your Rappier and Dagger next to each other in the Versazung (parrying position), then wind over his Rappier with your Dagger (as in illustration) and step in quickly with your left leg. During the step drop your arm over his blade such that it stays under your left shoulder. Then immediately thrust your Dagger low to his groin and your Rappier high to his body such that the long edge is turned up.

If he strikes towards you from above like this and you likewise stand opposite him with your left leg, drive against his strike with your Buckler to take it away. Then immediately cut with your Sword through his face (as in illustration).
  
If he goes at you like this with both thrusts from below and above, then go up with your Dagger from below to his Rappier and take it away to your left side. Then step inward with your right leg in front of his left and at the same time wind your long edge upward and shove powerfully away from you with the Bogen (bow) under his left shoulder. Then immediately step back again and strike or thrust to his body.

[47] '''A High thrust against a low one '''
 +
 
 +
Step forward with your left leg, and hold your buckler in your left hand facing straight towards your opponent, and the rapier in your right hand held high above your head with the long edge facing upwards. Then thrust from above towards his face or chest. Then turn your hand so that the long edge faces upwards and do a double thrust to his chest. If your opponent should thrust at your face from above, and you are standing with your left foot forward, with your buckler in your left hand and your rapier in your right, then move your buckler toward his thrust and parry it to your left. If he do a double thrust, then parry his thrust with the short edge, step forward with your right foot and thrust at his chest with turned hand so that the long edge faces up. Should your opponent do this, then step back with your left foot and with a double cut from below, and thus you have countered your opponent's attack.

[48] '''Two bindings with the sword'''
 +
 
 +
Stand with your left foot forward and strike a hard strike from above toward your opponent's head with the long edge. If he does this to you, and you are standing with your left foot forward, thne turn your long edge forward and bind at the same time in the middle of his blade, pull back the blade above and thrust into his belly or groin. If your opponent should do this to you, then remove his thrust to your left with your buckler. If he then tries to thrust from below then lay your buckler over his sword and parry to your left. Then step with your right foot on your opponent's left side and thrust with a hanging point to his left side. If he sees this, then strike away his thrust with your buckler and step back with your left foot, that way his strike and his thrust too short to be able to hurt you.

So step in with your left leg opposite him and set this aside with your Dagger and Rappier blades crosswise in the Scheer (scissors) (as in illustration). Then immediately yank your Rappier up away from his Rappier’s blade and thrust low to his body.

| {{section|page:Cod.10826 144v.png|Latin|lbl=144v}}
 
 
If he thrusts low towards you like this, then step back with your right leg and drop your Dagger onto his Rappier’s blade and with that take his thrust away to your left side. Then immediately step in quickly with your right leg once again and thrust to his groin.
 
 
 
If he thrusts low towards you like this, then step back with your left leg and take this aside with your Dagger to your left side. Then immediately step outward again quickly and strike or thrust to his head. With that step back away from him.

[49] '''A strike from above and below'''
 +
 
 +
Step forward with your left foot and raise the sword with your rihgt hand over your head for a strike from above, while holding your buckler outstretched before you somewhat pointing downward. From there, strike to your opponent's head. If your opponent does this, then move your buckler to the strike as you step forward with your right foot, and strike your opponent in the left leg. If he strikes to your forward left leg, however, then step back with your right foot, and you will evade the strike, and you can thrust him in the belly with a double thrust. If your opponent tries to thrust at you in the same manner, then parry with a thwart strike. If your opponent parries thus, then strike a double cross-strike to his belly and thrust him in the chest with a hanging point. Then move away from him with double strikes.

Step forward with your left foot and strike from above with your sword and make sure to wound your opponent's neck. If he does this, then parry with the buckler you are holding in your left hand and strike him in the head with your sword. If your opponent should strike toward your head on the other hand, then parry with your buckler and strike him in the leg. If he does the same, then pull back the sword from his buckler and strike a lower thwart strike inward, so that you bind with his sword and parry thus on your right side. Then you thrust him in the belly or groin. If he tries to do this to you, then parry with the short edge and move away from him with cross strikes and double thrusts.

[51] '''Strike to a buckler parry'''
  
If he thrusts low towards you like this and you also stand opposite him with your left foot, then drop the crossguard of your Dagger onto his Rappier’s blade and with that take his thrust out to your left side.
+
Step forward with your right foot and hold your sword by your right breast with the point toward the opponent and your buckler in front of your face, and when your opponent steps forward with the left foot and strikes from above to your head as he takes a step forward with his right foot, you move your buckler forward and parry it to your left, as you step forward with your left foot and thrust him in the belly or groin. If your opponent does this, then push the thrust down to your right with your buckler as you step back with your right foot and do cross strikes and double thrusts.

[52] '''A pull with the hilt in your opponent's arm along with a cut to his neck'''
  
If he has also thrust towards you like this with his Dagger, step back with your left leg and go up with your Dagger and with that take him aside to your right side. Then immediately step in quickly once again with your left leg and thrust with your Rappier out of the Bogen with strength from above to his face or chest.
+
Step forward with your left foot and hold your sword in your right hand and your buckler in your left. Then step forward with your left foot and try to thrust your opponent in his right armpit. If he tries to do thus to you, as you are standing with your left foot forward, holding your sword in your right hand, then tip your point down slightly toward your opponent, and hold your buckler in your left hand over your chest as you step forward with your right foot and put it on the outside of your opponent's right and thus you parry his thrust with a hangning point from below to your right. Immediately then pull your opponent's hand with the hilt and cross of your sword just behind his own pommel, while you with the long edge lying on your opponent's neck, pull back your pommel and hilt as hard as you can, and you will slice his neck. But if he tries to do this, then put your left foot on his right side and raise your buckler to his left side, turn your sword so that your cross is on the outside of your opponent's arm and strike it back, thus you will evade his attack.   
 
+
|  
If he thrusts high towards you like this, set this aside with the long edge of your Rappier and then immediately yank your left leg back and thrust low to his body. With that step back from him into a good Versazung.

[53] '''How to take the opponent's buckler'''
 +
 
 +
Stand with your right foot forward and step forward left and thrust to his chest, and then cut to his head. If he does this to you, while you are standing with your right foot forward, then grip your sword with your left hand in the middle of the blade together with your buckler, step forward and parry his attack on the buckler. Then you raise your buckler and sword to parry and step forward with your left foot as fast as you can, and grab hold on the inside of the opponent's buckler with your right hand and twist it out of his hand. Then you throw it into his face, steb back and take your sword in your right hand and thrust him in the face or chest. If he does the same to you on the other hand, then raise up your left arm to protect your face and do a cross cut from below to counter his thrust. And if you instead of the above mentioned thrust from above out of a cross cut from above you will also counter his buckler throw and his thrust.

If he thrusts low towards you like this, then drop your Dagger onto his Rappier’s blade and with that take him away to your left side. At the same time strike with an Oberhaw to his head.
 
If he strikes high towards you like this, step in with your left leg and parry his strike with your Dagger up high. Then immediately drop your left arm over his Rappier’s blade and with that wind it under your left shoulder. If he then intends to thrust you high with his Dagger, take this aside with your Rappier to your left side. Then immediately step back with your left leg and thrust with your Rappier from below to his body.
 
 
 
If he thrusts you from below like this, then strike the thrust away with your Rappier and immediately step in the triangle on your left side and thrust to his right side. With that yank yourself back away from him.

[54] '''The second way of taking the opponent's buckler along with a throw'''
 +
 
 +
When you step together and both thrust at each other and both parry with the buckler, then step forward with your left foot and hold your buckler in your left hand extended toward your opponent as you thrust to his face or chest. If your opponent thrusts at you in the same manner, then grab hold of the middle of the blade with your left hand and the buckler in front of, so that the tip of the sword  is pointing up, and step forward with your left foot against his thrust. If your opponent then wants to cut at you, then step in and parry with the buckler and the sword and then swiftly grab hold of the inside if his buckler and twist it out of his hand. Then step back with the other foot and throw the buckler in his face. Then grab hold of your own sword with your right hand and then step in with your right foot and thrust hin in the face or chest. If your opponent does the same to you, and you have stepped back holding up your left arm to protect your face, you will parry his attack. If he then continues to thrust to your face or chest, then step back and cut cross cuts and double thrusts at him, and you will parry all his attacks.

| {{section|page:Cod.10826 147v.png|Latin|lbl=147v}}
 
 
If he thrusts towards you like this and you stand opposite him with your left leg, then take this away with Dagger and Rappier crosswise to your right side (as in illustration). Then immediately yank your Rappier up away from his Rappier’s blade and thrust low to his body, but remain with the Dagger on his Rappier. With that he can injure you knowing to thrust.
 
 
 
If he thrusts low towards you like this, then yank your Dagger forward, drop it well forward on his Rappier’s blade and take his thrust away. Then immediately step back with your right leg and thrust again low to his body. Thus you avoid injury and may once again come together with him to work.

[8] '''The Mordwurff (Fatal Throw) against a Thrust'''
 
  
Hold yourself like this with this technique: stand with your right foot opposite him and hold your Dagger with your left hand behind your body. He then also stands with his right foot opposite you and fires a high thrust out of the Bogen towards your face or chest. So drive up with your Rappier onto his Rappier’s blade, and with that take his high thrust away to your left side. Then immediately you will strike him similarly from above so that he must parry high with his Dagger. You then thrust to the opening on his body. Then yank your Dagger forward with your left hand such that the pommel stands on the ball (of the thumb) and the fingers directly on the hilt. Then immediately throw your Dagger with strength at his body (as in illustration). Thus you throw him to the ground.
+
Step forward with your left foot, holding your sword with the point directed at the opponent on your right side and your buckler in front of your left breast. Then step forward with your right foot and thrust to your opponent's face or chest. If your opponent attacks you in this manner, and you are standing with your right foot forward, then parry his thrust on your buckler, and step forward with your left foot on the inside of his right and cut him in the head. If your opponent tries to cut you in this manner, then hold your buckler in front of your face to parry and cut him swiftly in his face. Should he do this, then remove his cut and step close to him. Lift your buckler and move your left arm over the outside of his right arm and around, så that his right hand that he is holding his sword with ends up behind your armpit. Fasten the buckler you are holding in your left hand firmly under his right arm and put your left leg on the outside of the back of his right knee, turn you your left, and you will throw him backwards. If this were to happen to you, in that case, make sure to parry his cuts and thrusts with your buckler.

[56] '''A throw with the sword'''
 +
 
 +
Put your right foot forward and thrust from above with the sword in your right hand and hold your buckler with the left arm outstretched by the sword pointing at your opponent. Then step forward with your left foot and thrust from below a half thrust to your opponent's belly or chest. If your opponent comes att you in this manner, then step forward with your right foot and parry the thrust with your buckler. Should he parry your thrust thus, then without hesitation, cut a thwart cut to his head. If your opponent does this, then put together both hands holding the sword and the buckler and parry the strike this way. Then you step in quickly and move your left arm over his right behind his sword and hold firmly, as you thrust him in the chest. However, if your opponent has taken hold of you in said manner and tries to thrust you in the chest, then parry with the buckler. Should your opponent parry with the buckler then, step with your left foot as fast as you can behind the back of his right knee as you take a firm hold of your opponent's right armpit with the left arm. If you then push away from you and upward, your opponent will fall backwards and lose his sword. If this were to happen to you, then kick him in the groin with the other foot and parry with your buckler his cuts and thrusts or whatever he were to do to you.

[9] '''A High Thrust against a High Cut Taken Away with the Dagger'''
+
[1] '''A parry against a death strike with the poleaxe'''
 +
 
 +
Step forward with your right foot towards your opponent and hold your poleaxe over your hed with both hands and the point directed at the opponent. If he is standing with his left foot forward and is about to strike you with a death strike, then parry his attack to your left. Then you pull back your ase and thrust him in the groin. If your opponent does this on the other hand, you parry with the back end, and step forward with your right foot and strike him in the head with the axe blade. If he parries with the shaft between his hands you turn in the back end between his arms into his face. If he does this, then step back with your right foot and parry with the shaft between your arms. If he parries, you strike again to his upper opening. If your opponent strikes at you in the same manner, you parry with the shaft. Then, if you pull you your right you will thrust him win the face with the point. Then you change through with the axe and step back.
  
Present yourself like so in this approach: Step in toward the man with your right leg and cut to his head with a high cut using the long edge. If he cuts at you like this, and you stand with your left leg toward him, then go up with your dagger in the parrying and parry his cut on your left side. In the same moment, step in with your right leg and stab him from above to his face with your rapier. If he thrusts at you from above like this, then go to his rapier blade with your dagger from inside and wind with your cross to your left side. Thus you block him and take his thrust away. In the same moment quickly pull your rapier and stab him in the face or in the chest.

[10] '''Thrusts with Rapier and Dagger'''
+
[2] '''A death strike against a thrust to the chest'''
 +
 
 +
This device is executed thus. Stand with both legs straight and hold the shaft of your axe with both hands and the left hand raised behind your head. Then you step forward with your right foot and strike your opponent in the head with the blade of the axe. If your opponent comes at you like this, and you are standing with your left foot forward, holding the axe with your right hand at head hight and the left hand on the lower end pointing to the opponent, then parry with the shaft to your right. Then you thrust him in the chest with the front point. If he would do the same, then parry his thrust on the shaft between your hands to your left, and thrust him with the front point over his left hand and into his chest, and pull towards you hard. When you have done this, you may change through and move back.
  
Follow like so with this piece in the approach: If you stand with your left foot toward him and he thrusts at you with his rapier to your chest, then take that away with your rapier from your left side on his right side. In the same moment, step in with your right leg and stab him in his nuts with your dagger. If he is thrusting low at you like this, then fall upon his dagger with the cross of your dagger and push it down away from you on your right side and take it away. In the same moment, pull your rapier above to you and quickly stab him in the face. If he thrusts at you like this, then wind your rapier over his on your right side, taking his thrust away. In the same moment, jump to his right side in a triangle and stab him with your rapier to his face or chest.

 +
 
 +
In this device you do thus: step forward with your right foot and hold your poleaxe in good defence turned toward the opponent. Then you step forward with your left foot and strike a death strike to his head with the axe. If your opponent comes at you in the same manner, and you are holding the poleaxe in both hands then grab the upper end of the shaft with your right and the lower with the left, step forward with your right foot and remove his strike to the left with the shaft. Then you step forward with your left foot and direct the back end over both arms, switch grips, and pull your opponent's right hand toward you (above) with the axe blade, and below, with his left hand with your left arm. If your opponent were to do this, then let go with your right hand, grab his left shoulder and push him away from you. Should he do this on the other hand, then you step back with your left foot and direct a thrust with the front point into his chest, and step back from him in good defense.
  
Conduct yourself like so in this piece with the approach: Step in toward him with your left leg and thrust toward his face or chest with your dagger. If he thrusts at you like this, and you are coming with your left leg forward in the approach, then go up with your rondel in your left hand and take away his dagger thrust on your left side. In that moment, step in there with your right leg and thrust from above to his face or chest with your rapier. If he thrusts at you like this, then go up from below with your rapier to his rapier blade and take it away to your left side. In that moment, turn your rapier to his face over his rondel. If he winds at you like this, then take it away to your left side with your rondel. In that moment, pull your rapier above you and stab down to his nuts. If he thrusts low at you like this, then set him aside with your dagger and quickly cut at his head in the same moment and pull yourself back away from him.

If you have been overtaken, however it may have happened, and your adversary is working against you with cuts or thrusts and you are wearing your cloak, then conduct yourself like so: Take your cloak in your left hand behind the nape of your neck by your hood and quickly swing it around your left arm and catch his thrust with it, taking it away on your left side. In this moment, swing the cloak in front of his face so that you blind him and stab him in the torso. If he has blinded you and stabbed at you like this, then step back away from him with your right leg and force his rapier down with the long edge of your rapier, thus you take away his thrust. In that moment quickly step back in again with your right foot and cut at his head with your long edge.
+
In this device you do thus: step forward with your right foot and hold your poleaxe in good defence turned toward the opponent. Then you step forward with your left foot and strike a death strike to his head with the axe. If your opponent comes at you in the same manner, and you are holding the poleaxe in both hands then grab the upper end of the shaft with your right and the lower with the left, step forward with your right foot and remove his strike to the left with the shaft. Then you step forward with your left foot and direct the back end over both arms, switch grips, and pull your opponent's right hand toward you (above) with the axe blade, and below, with his left hand with your left arm. If your opponent were to do this, then let go with your right hand, grab his left shoulder and push him away from you. Should he do this on the other hand, then you step back with your left foot and direct a thrust with the front point into his chest, and step back from him in good defense.

[5] '''A thrust to the groin against a turning in'''
  
It happens like this with these fencings in the Sword: stand with your right foot forward and strike him to his right side. Then immediately spring in with your left foot and thrust to his right thigh.
+
this device is performed thus: stand with the left foot forward and hold the axe raised over in front of your face with the right hand on the middle of the shaft and the left on the back end. Then, step forward with the right foot and thrust your opponent in the groin. If he does this to you, and you are standing with your right foot forward, holding your axe before your face with both hands, right hand on the back end and the left by the blade, then parry to your left with the back end and strike hom in the head with the blade. If he parries on the shaft between his hands, you thrust the back end into his face between his both arms. Should he parry this as well, you step back with your left foot and strike him in the right arm with the blade. Then you step away from him while turning the axe around.  
  
If he has thrust to your forward set thigh like this, then yank it back, spring in quickly again with your left and thrust him with your Sword to his throat with your Buckler in your left hand.

[6] '''Two pulls followed by a throw'''
  
Hold yourself like this with these techniques in the Sword: stand with your left foot forward, your left arm outstretched with your Buckler so that your Sword stands at your right chest with your cross under the point opposite the opponent with your blade on your left arm (shown in illustration). Thus you can thrust to his left side. Then immediately spring in with your right foot and strike to his right arm. If he parries this with his Buckler, then thrust quickly to his groin.
+
If you want to be the victor in this device, do as follows: stand with your right foot forward and raise the axe up in front of your face on your left side, and holding the right hand on the back end and the left on the middle of the blade. Then you step forward with your left foot and strike him in the head with the blade. Should he parry between his hands on the shaft, then move down your front end as well as the blade into the back of his right knee, and pull toward you. If he should do this, however, then put your axe blade around his neck, and pull toward you, that way he cannot hurt you. If your opponent pulls you toward him in the same manner, then take a triangle step and parry his strike between both hands on your shaft, and push up, that way you will weaken him above. Then, let go of the axe with your left hand and grab hold of his right leg and lift it up, and you will throw him backwards.  
  
If he thrusts towards you like this and you stand with your left foot forward, then spring back with both feet together and set his thrust aside with your Buckler. Then immediately spring in quickly with your right foot against his right side with another thrust. If he parries this with his Sword, then strike him quickly to his forward set leg.

[7] '''A breaking in with the axe'''
  
It happens like this with these techniques in the Sword: stand with your right foot forward, your blade on your left shoulder, the Buckler in your left hand (as in illustration). Then immediately spring in with your left foot and strike him from below inward to his right arm. If he parries this, then thrust him with your Sword behind your head in towards his face.
+
When you enter before your opponent, then stand straight with your feet together holding your axe raised up with both hands before your face. Step forward with your left foot and strike him in the head with the blade of your axe. If he were to do this to you, then strike against his strike and parry this way. Then you move in the lower end over his right arm and press your opponent's axe and yours together with your right hand. Then, turn to your right and you will pull his axe rather painfully out of his hands. If he breaks in in the same way and wants to take your axe from you, then leg him do so, and grab hold on the outside of his right armpit with your left hand, and push him away forcefully as you grab hold of the axe with the right hand again and step back. Then strike a death strike to his head with the blade.  
  
If he thrusts you like this to your face and you stand with your left foot forward, parry this with your Buckler in your left hand, then immediately spring with your left leg well to his left side and thrust to his right. Should he perceive the thrust and parry it, then strike his forward set leg and with that spring back and wind the point double to his face.

[8] '''A death strike against a pull'''
  
It happens like this in this technique: spring in with both feet and thrust to his face or chest. If he parries this with his Buckler, then set your left leg to the rear and strike to his left arm. Then immediately spring in with your left foot and thrust to his right side. If he sets this aside with his Buckler, then strike inward from below to his left arm. Then immediately follow outward with your right leg and wind the thrust to his face or chest.
+
Excute this device as follows: step forward with your right foot and hold the axe with both hands on the shaft and strike a death strike to his head with the blade. If he comes at you like this, and you are standing with your left foot forward, then turn the front end in between his arms and put the axe on the right side of his neck, and thus you may parry his strike with the back end. Then you pull the opponent toward you with the axe blade. If your opponent does this, on the other hand, then switch hands from below with the right hand on the outside of the axe and this way you press the opponent's axe down and cut him in the left side of his neck with the axe blade. If he uses the same technique, then parry his strike you your right and thrust him in the face with the front end, and move away from him.  
  
If he fires the thrust and strike at you like this, then parry him with your Buckler and immediately spring in with your right foot and thrust him powerfully under your left arm to his right side. Should he perceive this thrust, strike his Sword away with an Oberhaw, immediately let your Sword fall, step with your left leg between both of his legs, and grab with your right hand over and around his left shoulder and with your left under his right shoulder and also around his body (shown in illustration). Thus you have him in the Wag and can throw him wherever you want.

+
When stepping toward each other, stand with your left foot forward and hold your axe raised before your face with both hands. Then step forward with your right foot and strike your opponent in the head with the axe blade. If your opponent comes at you thus, and you are standing with your left foot forward, holding the axe with the left hand on the front end facing the opponent, and the right hand the back end, then parry his strike between your hands on the shaft, and thrust him in the neck with your front end. If your opponent does this, then remove his thrust with the front end to your right, and thrust him over his left arm into his face. If he does this, then parry with the axe blade, step forward with the right foot and thrust him in the chest with the front end between his arms, and move away from him while turning the axe around.  
  
If he thrusts towards you like this, then take this away with your Buckler and immediately strike to his head.

If he thrusts towards you like this, then take this away with your Buckler from above down towards the ground. Then immediately step in with your left leg and thrust him again from below to his left side.
+
In this device you do as follows: stand with your left foot forward, holding your axe with both hands, front end in the left hand facing the opponent, and the right hand on the back end held against the chest. Then step forward with your right foot and strike a windstrike from your chest at your opponent's head. If your opponent attacks you in this manner, and you are standing with your right foot forward holding the right hand on the back end facing him, and the left hand on the front end to your left, then steo boack with your right foot and parry his strike on the shaft between your hands, and step forward again with your left foot and thrust him in the face with the back end. If your opponent parries on the shaft between his hands then step forward with the left foot and strike a death strike to his head, and then turn your axe around as you step away from him.

Hold yourself like this when you come together in this technique: step in with your left leg and thrust with your Sword to his face.
+
In this device you stand with your right foot forward, right hand holding your back end pointing toward your opponent and left hand by the axe blade, and from here you step forward with your left foot, and thrust your opponent in the ned with the back end between his arms. If he comes at you thus, and you are standing with your feet together then parry his thrust with the back end you your right. Then step forward with your left foot and thrust your opponent in the face with the back end between his arms. If he parries, then swiftly hit him as hard as you can in the head with the axe blade. If he attacks your head in this manner, then parry his strike between your hands on the shaft. Then press his axe down with your axe blade and thrust him with the front end in the face, and then move away from him.

When stepping together, you and your opponent, then do as follows: step toward your opponent with your left foot, and hold your axe with the left hand on the blade facing the opponent, and the right hand on the back end by your head. Then continue forward with your right foot and thrust your opponent in the chest with the front end. If he attacks you thus, and you are standing with your right foot forward, holding the axe with both hands by your left side, then raise the back end, and parry his thrust to your left. Then you step forward with your left foot and strike a middle strike to his right side with your blade. If he does this, you parry with the shaft. Then, press down his axe with your axe blade to your left and thrust him in the chest. If he parries on the shaft between his hands, then strike him with the axe blade in the head, and move away from him.

[13] '''A parry against a strike to the leg'''
  
It happens like this when you come for the opponent in this technique: stand with your right foot forward and do an extended thrust to his chest.
+
When engaging your opponent, stand with both feet together, while holding your axe raised over your head with both hands. From this position, step forward with your left foot and direct a strike with the blade from above at your opponent's forward leg. If you are standing with your left foot forward, and he is striking at your leg, then lower your axe and put it in front of your left leg with the front end on the ground, and parry his strike thus. Then you raise the axe, step forward with your right foot, and thrust him in the neck with the front end. If he parries with the blade on his right side, then change through below with the point, and thrust him in the left side. If he tries to do this, then parry with the axe blade to your left, step forward with your right foot and thrust with both points to his face and chest. Then you strike him in the head with the axe blade and step away from him.  
 
+
If he then thrusts towards you like this and you likewise stand with your right foot opposite him, then drop your Buckler downward and displace his thrust with that and at the same time snap from below to thrust to his chest such that your long edge is turned upwards. If he displaces this with his Buckler, then spring with your left foot in front of his right and strike his right arm.

[14] '''Cross parry against a thrust to the groin'''
  
Note this technique when you go together and the opponent has you in the bind: stand with your left foot forward and he stands opposite you with his right. Hold your Sword to your Buckler in your left hand and catch his sword blade well forward near the point with your right. With that snatch it out of his hand (as in illustration.
+
Do as follows: stand with your right foot forward and hold your axe with both hands over your head, front end in the right hand facing the opponent, and the left on the back end. Then, step forward with your left foot and thrust him in the groin with the front end. If he does this to you, and you are standing with your left foot forward, holding the axe with crossed arms facing toward him, left hand by the blade and the right on the shaft, then step back with the left foot and parry his thrust to your left with the back end, then step forward again with your left foot and thrust with the front end from below in his face or chest. If the opponent does this, however, you parry his thrust on the shaft between your hand, step in triangle, hit him in the head with the blade and step away from him.  
 
+
If he has grabbed your sword out of your hand like this, then step in with your left leg and catch his sword that is in his left hand and thrust your buckler high onto his left arm so that he must release his sword. If he then strikes at you with pommel and cross, drive high with your Buckler and displace this. Then step back twice as you take your sword in your hand again. If he then travels after you, quickly go in again onto his blade and wind your point to his face.

[15] '''A death strike against a crossed set on as described below'''
  
It happens like this when you go together: stand with your left leg forward and bind on his blade such that your long edge is turned upward near the point and opposite his chest.
+
When you engage each other, you do thus: stand with your left foot forward, holding your axe facing the opponent with crossed arms. Then step forward and thrust him with the front end in his left arm to set him on. Now, if you are standing with your left foot forward and he tries to thrust you  in the left arm, then step back with the left foot and parry with the blade to your left. Then step forward again, and hit him in the head with a death strike with the blade. If he comes at you thus, then parry between your hands, step forward with your right foot and thrust with the front end in his face or chest. Should he parry, then step back with the right foot and strike a wind strike to his forward left leg, and then step away from him.  
 
+
 
If you then also stand with your right foot opposite him and likewise have him in the bind, hold your Sword and Buckler together in your left hand and then immediately step in with your left leg, catch his sword and snatch it out of his hand.

[16] '''A double set on with the poleaxe'''
  
It happens like this with this technique when you go together: step in with your left leg and strike low to his left leg such that you have your Buckler in your left hand crosswise over your right.
+
Perform this device as follows: step forward with your right foot, and hold your axe lifted up over your head with both hands on the back end. Then continue forward with your left foot and strike him in the right side of his head with an athwart strike. If he tries to do the same, and you are standing with your left foot toward him in scale position, while holding both hands so that the front end is leaning on the ground, then lift the axe and parry his strike between your hands on the shaft. If he parries thus, then put the front end of your axe on his left arm to set him on. If he as set you on in this manner, then parry it with your blade, then lock his axe with your blade and thrust the front end into his chest with a forceful push, and you will thrust him to the ground.  
 
    
 
    
If he strikes like this to your forward leg, then thrust to his left so that you displace him and immediately thrust with your left foot to his left as you stab him in the face with the spike of your Buckler (as in illustration).

| <p>[1] '''A thrust against a parry'''</p>
 +
 
 +
<p>In this device you step forward with your left foot and hold your spear and the shield together in your left hand and the sword in the right, and from there you thrust at your opponent's throat with the spearpoint. If he does this, on the other hand, and you, just as him, are standing with your left foot forward, with the shield and sword in your left hand and the spear in your right, you parry his thrust with the pommel of your sword, and then you thrust at his face with your spear. If he attacks you with a thrust in the same manner, you raise the shield and parry thus. But if he parries with his shield, you direct your thrust into his visor. Furthermore, should he do the same thing, you parry his attack to your right with your shield, drop your spear, step forward with your right foot, grab the sword with your right hand, and strike him in his right elbow and step away from him.</p>

If he thrusts towards you like this and you stand with your right foot forward, then take your Sword to your Buckler in your left hand and immediately grab his sword blade with your right hand (as in illustration).
+
<p>Perform this device thus: step with your left foot forward and hold the spear with both hands on your right side and thrust the opponent in the crotch. If he attacks you below thus, while you are standing with your right foot forward, holding sword and shield together in your left hand and the spear in your right hand in front of your face with the back end in the ground, and remove his thrust to your left with the shield. Then, step forward with your left foot and thrust your opponent in the armpit with the spear. If he should thrust at you in the same manner, then step back with the left foot and parry with the shield, step forward again with your left foot and thrust him in the visor with the point of your spear. If he parries with the back end of his spear, then you change through with your spear from his and thrust him with your spearpoint in the groin.</p>

If he travels after you like this and thrusts to your face, displace this with your Buckler and at the same time step back with your right leg and then thrust from below to his chest. If he displaces this, then strike from above with a winding strike to his head. With that yank yourself back away from him.
+
<p>Perform this device thus: step forward with the right foot and hold the middle of the sword with your right hand, and the spear raised over your head in your left hand, and turn in a thrust with the spear toward his visor. If he uses the same technique against you, and you are standing with your left foot forward, left hand on the middle of the sword and the spear in your right hand raised behind your head , then lift the sword and beat his thrus away with the hilt to your right, and thrust your own spearpoint into his visor. Should he parry with his sword then you step forward with your right foot, and grab your swordhilt with your right hand and thrust at his throat. If he turns in a thrust in the same manner, then grab hold of the pommel with your right hand, raise the sword and parry on the hilt between your both hands, move the left hand to your right on the middle of the blad and strike pommel and cross into his left leg, and then move away from him.</p>

 +
| <p>[5] '''Two thrusts from the middle of the spear along with the taking of the opponent's shield'''</p>
  
If he holds your Sword like this and yanks you towards him, then grab your blade near the hilt with your left hand and yank strongly towards you. Thus he must release your sword. Then immediately thrust quickly from below to his groin. If he displaces this with his sword, step outward with your left leg and thrust with the spike of your Buckler to his face.
+
<p>If you wish to win the victory in this device, then you must do as follows: step forward with your left foot and hold the spear with both hands on your right side, and from there you step forward with your right foot and thrust the opponent in the throat with your spear. If your opponent does this, on the other hand, then parry with the front end of your spear on your left side. Then step forward with your right foot and thrust him in the groin. If he attacks you this way, then parry with the spear, drop the spear and shield step back with the right foot. If he steps back like this, then drop your spear and shield as well, and grab his shield with both hands. If he has taken your shield in this manner, then draw your sword, step forward with your right foot again and turn a thrust into your opponent's visor. Should he parry with your shield that he has taken from you then change grips and take hold with both hands on the blade and strike him in the head with cross and pommel, turn the sword around and step away from him.</p>

| <p>[8] '''Two onsets with sword and spear as described here below'''</p>
 +
 
 +
<p>In this play you step forward with your left foot before your opponent, and hold your spear with both hands on your right side, and from here you thrust him in the groin with your spear. If your opponent does this to you, as you are standing with your left foot forward, and your spearpoint toward him, then throw away your spear and parry his thrust with your shield on your left side and then you thrust him in the vizor with your swordpoint. If he does this to you, on the other hand, then you parry with your shield on your left side, step forward with your right foot, raise your spear and thrust it into his throat. If he parries this with his shield then drop your spear, and step back with your right foot. Draw your sword and thrust it into his visor. If he parries, then grab hold of the middle of the blade with both hands and strike him with cross and pommel in the right elbow, and move away from him.</p>

If he has grabbed you like this and holds you by your beard and intends to drop his left hand over his right so that he can snatch your beard downward powerfully, then drop your left hand on his right arm and wind his hand off of your beard (as in illustration). Then strike to his head.

| <p>[9] '''An onset with the spear against a parry with the sword.'''</p>
  
If he has wound himself from you like this and strikes towards your head, then once again quickly take your sword in your right hand and displace his strike with your Buckler. Then immediately step back and thrust to his chest. If he takes your thrust away with his Buckler, then strike with a Zwirchhaw as you move back away from him
+
<p>Do as follows in this play: when engaging each other, you and your opponent, you step forward with your left leg, drop your shield, and grab sword and spear together in both hands, and push the spearpoint into the left side of your opponent's neck. If your opponent does this to you, and you are also standing with your left foot forward, you remove his thrust on your left side, drop shield and spear, step back with your left foot and draw your sword. Then you step forward again with the right hand on the hilt and the left on the middle of the blade, and thrust him with the point on the inside of his left elbow. If he parries with the forward end of his spear, then you quickly raise the sword, take two steps forward and thrust him in the visor, and then you step away from him.</p>

 +
 
 +
<p>Perform this play thus: step forward with left leg, and thrust your spear into your opponent's visor. If he does this, and you are standing with left leg forward as well, then parry his thrust with your spear, drop shield and spear, step back with your left foot and draw your sword, step forward again with your left foot and thrust him with the point in his throat. If he has dropped his spear as well and draws his sword, and parries with it, then you thrust him in the groin. Then you drop your sword and grab hold of his crotch with your hands. If he tries to do the same, then you quickly put your right foot behind his left and put your right hand around his neck, pull against you hard, and hit him in the visor with the shield your holding in your left hand. Then you move your left foot inside of your opponent's left, and pull towards you below as you push away from you above, and thus you throw him over.</p>

If he thrusts towards you like this and you stand with your left foot opposite him, then drive against both of his hands with your Buckler and shove his Sword and Buckler away from you to your left side. At the same time thrust with your sword to his front leg (as in illustration).
+
<p>In this device you step forward with your left foot and hold your spear and the shield together in your left hand and the sword in the right, and from there you thrust at your opponent's throat with the spearpoint. If he does this, on the other hand, and you, just as him, are standing with your left foot forward, with the shield and sword in your left hand and the spear in your right, you parry his thrust with the pommel of your sword, and then you thrust at his face with your spear. If he attacks you with a thrust in the same manner, you raise the shield and parry thus. But if he parries with his shield, you direct your thrust into his visor. Furthermore, should he do the same thing, you parry his attack to your right with your shield, drop your spear, step forward with your right foot, grab the sword with your right hand, and strike him in his right elbow and step away from him.</p>

If he thrusts like this to your face, then set this aside with your Buckler and thrust from below to his chest.

<p>Perform this device thus: step with your left foot forward and hold the spear with both hands on your right side and thrust the opponent in the crotch. If he attacks you below thus, while you are standing with your right foot forward, holding sword and shield together in your left hand and the spear in your right hand in front of your face with the back end in the ground, and remove his thrust to your left with the shield. Then, step forward with your left foot and thrust your opponent in the armpit with the spear. If he should thrust at you in the same manner, then step back with the left foot and parry with the shield, step forward again with your left foot and thrust him in the visor with the point of your spear. If he parries with the back end of his spear, then you change through with your spear from his and thrust him with your spearpoint in the groin.</p>

<p>Perform this device thus: step forward with the right foot and hold the middle of the sword with your right hand, and the spear raised over your head in your left hand, and turn in a thrust with the spear toward his visor. If he uses the same technique against you, and you are standing with your left foot forward, left hand on the middle of the sword and the spear in your right hand raised behind your head , then lift the sword and beat his thrus away with the hilt to your right, and thrust your own spearpoint into his visor. Should he parry with his sword then you step forward with your right foot, and grab your swordhilt with your right hand and thrust at his throat. If he turns in a thrust in the same manner, then grab hold of the pommel with your right hand, raise the sword and parry on the hilt between your both hands, move the left hand to your right on the middle of the blad and strike pommel and cross into his left leg, and then move away from him.</p>

<p>Thus you perform this device: step forward with your left foot and hold your sword and spear together with both hands and thrust to your opponent's groin with your spear point. Of he attacks you below in this manner, and you are also standing with your left foot forward, holding your spear in both hands on your right side, then parry his thrust on the shield, throw it and thrust him in the throat with your spear point. If he thrusts at you in the same way, and you have thrown away your shield as well, then step back with your left foot and remove his thrust with the front end of your spear. Then you step forward again with your left foot and aim a thrust at his visor. If he attacks you in the same manner, then parry with your spear, drop it, step back with your left foot and draw your sword, grab it with both hands and step forward with your left foot and thrust him in the neck with the tip. If he parries this as well, then grab hold with both hands on the middle of the blade and strike him in the head with cross and pommel, and then you step away from him.</p>

If he steps back like this, then drop your spear and shield as well, and grab his shield with both hands. If he has taken your shield in this manner, then draw your sword, step forward with your right foot again and turn a thrust into your opponent's visor. Should he parry with your shield that he has taken from you then change grips and take hold with both hands on the blade and strike him in the head with cross and pommel, turn the sword around and step away from him.</p>

If he thrusts towards you like this, displace it with your long edge and Buckler, strike his sword to his right side and immediately thrust from below to his chest. If he displaces this with his Buckler, then strike him double to his forward set leg.
+
<p>If it were to happen that a mounted opponent rides toward you in order to harm you, then put the back end of the pike in the ground and point the front end toward the opponent. Above all, make sure to be able to use the pike on both sides, so that if your mounted opponent comes at you wielding a lance you can defend yourself against him on both sides. When he engages you, you strike away his lance from your right to your left side. If he continues forward you direct you pike into his face, and he will throw himself off the saddle. Then you can draw your rapier and do whatever you wish to him.</p>

| <p>[2] '''How a rider is to evade the pike of a foot-soldier.'''</p>
 +
 
 +
<p>This is what you do against the rider: Step forward with your left foot and hold the pike with both hands on your right side, with the point toward the opponent, and from here you continue forward with your right foot and turn the point into his face. If you, being the rider, see the opponent doing this to you, then fasten the reins in the hook by the belt, and remove the lance from the arret and hold it across(before you) with both hands, and remove the opponent's thrust thus between both your hands to your left, and then you insert the lance again into the arret, i.e. the lance rest, a hook being there to prevent the lance from going backwards under your arm, and then you engage your opponent at full speed and run him down.</p>

If you then stand like this with the left leg opposite him and he thrusts afterwards, drop your Sword on his blade and push downward so that you displace his thrust (as in illustration). Then immediately strike to the left side of his head. If he displaces this with his Buckler, then take a winding thrust behind your head forward to his face or chest.

<p>This is how you use the pike in this device: If you see the rider coming at you, and you are on foot, then stand with your left foot forward and hold the pike with the left hand by the chest in free position, and with the right hand on the back end, point toward the opponent. If he then attacks you with his lance, then turn the pike from your left side to his right so that you remove his lance. Then you take a step forward with the right foot and thrust forcefully with the pike into his face. Then, make sure that the back end of the pike is in the ground for good defence, so that the rider cannot hurt you in any way.</p>

| <p>[4] '''A battle device where the rider is using a sword and lance at the same time against a footman with a pike.'''</p>
  
If he intends to thrust to your body like this, then step back with your left leg so that you move away from his thrust. Then immediately strike with a Creizhaw double to his left arm.
+
<p>This is how you defend yourself with your pike against an attacking rider: Step forward with your left foot and hold your pike with the point aimed toward the opponent for a thrust. If your opponent on foot does this towards you, you spur your horse toward him and touch his lance by the front part, and remove his thrust to your right, and simultaneously as you parry, you turn the horse toward the opponent, and put his pike into your right armpit, drop the lance out of the lance rest, spur the horse toward the opponent, draw your sword and run him through with it.</p>

| <p>[5] '''A fight where the footman uses halberd against a rider with lance.'''</p>
  
When you go together with this technique hold yourself like this: step in with your left leg and thrust to his groin.
+
<p>If you wish to obtain the victory in this device, you must do as follows: If a rider rides at you with his lance, you step forward with your left foot and hold the halberd with the axe head toward him, and if he attacks with his lance, you hook the lance with your halberd and raise it, and you have averted his thrust. Then you thrust with the point into his face as hard as you can. If a footman does this to you, being the rider, and you cannot use your lance, you throw it out of your lance rest and turn the horse to the left, draw your sword and strike at his halberd, and you have parried his attack thus. Then you spur your horse toward him and run him through with the sword.</p>

If he thrusts low towards you like this and you stand with your right leg opposite him, then drop your Sword and Buckler on his Sword blade well over near the hilt and push downward to set this aside (as in illustration). Then immediately step in with your left leg and strike with your Buckler to his face. If he displaces this with his Buckler, then yank your Sword back towards you and thrust from below towards his chest.

If he has set upon you low and high like this, then spring back with your left foot and thrust to his face. If he displaces this with his Sword, then step in again quickly with your left leg and strike an Oberhaw double to his head. Then immediately with that yank yourself back from him.
+
<p>This is how you use the halberd in this device against a horseman with a lance: If the rider comes at you with his lance, then step with your left foot forward toward the opponent's right side and strike at the front end of his lance with your halberd from your left side to his right, and you have averted his attack. If you then press down his lance, you will force the rider to fall to the ground struck backwards, and he cannot harm you anymore. If you do this, make sure to press down the lance swiftly with the halberd, so that he strikes himself off the saddle. Then you may fight against him however you want.</p>

Hold yourself like this when you go together in this technique: step in with your left leg and strike him with an Oberhaw to his head. If he displaces this, then wind the short edge on his long and with that thrust to his face.
+
<p>In this device you do as follows: Hold your lance over your right leg and ride towards your opponent, and put the lance in the arret. If you are on foot and standing with your left leg forward, holding your halberd for a strike from above while waiting for your opponent, and when he then gets close, you direct a strike from your left side to his right against his lance and press it down hard, and if you then step with your right foot in triangle the rider will break his lance. If he tries to draw his sword you run toward him with two steps and place the halberd head around his neck and pull to you, and you will throw him off the horse.</p>

If he strikes towards you like this, then displace it with your long edge, immediately step inward with your left leg between both of his, drop your right arm from above over both of his, and with that press towards you as you fall over him with your left arm over his chest and around his body from his right side. Then lift upwards with your left leg so that you throw him onto his face at your left side. (illustration does not match)
+
<p>When riding toward your opponent, do as follows: Hold the spear extended over your right leg in your right hand, and when you are about to attack, you insert the spear in the arret, and ride toward him thus. If your opponent comes at you in said manner, then step forward with your left foot and hold your halberd in a strike from above, and strike his spear away from left to your right side, and you have averted his attack. Then you take two steps toward him and hook him in the left side of his neck with the head of the halberd and pull forcefully to you, and you will throw the rider off his horse.</p>

<p>Do thus: Raise the spear over your right leg with your right hand and as you spur your horse toward your opponent you insert the spear into the arret, and aim for his visor(!). If the rider comes at you in this manner, and you have neither pike nor halberd to protect yourself with, only the sword, then draw it and hold it up in front of your face, and move his sword upward with the cross in this manner, than you have defended yourself against his thrust. Then you raise the sword over your head, step in triangle and cut the horse's sinews so that it falls to the ground and you may do whatever you wish with the opponent.</p>

It happens like this when you come to the opponent with this technique: step in with your right leg and strike with a doubled Creizhaw to his right arm. If he sets this aside with his Sword, then step in with your left leg and set your Buckler at his blade. With that press away from you to your left side and then immediately thrust from below to his body.

+
<p>In this engagement with an enemy on foot you do as follows: If you see the foot soldier coming against you, then ride toward him in full speed and drawn sword, and when you get close to him you strike him in the head from your right side to his left. If the rider comes at you in this manner, then step forward with your left foot and draw your rapier, and hold up the buckler in front of your face with your left hand and remove his strike thus. Then you thrust with your rapier into the chest of the horse, and you will fell it, and you may do whatever you wish with the opponent.</p>

Then with that shove away from you low and yank towards you high so that you throw him forwards onto the face.

<p>This is how you perform this device with rapier and buckler: When the rider comes at you, you step forward with your left foot and quickly draw your rapier with your right hand and grab the buckler with your left for defence, and if the opponent is armed with a sword and strikes at you with it, then raise the buckler with the left hand and remove his strike thus. Then you strike the horse over both its shins, and you will fell it to the ground. Then you can fight however you wish against your opponent.</p>

<p>When you have inserted the lance into the lance rest, you ride toward the opponent and aim the point to his chest. If your opponent comes at you in this manner, and you are without armour, holding your sword before your chest in your right hand, and the reins in your left, then ride toward him and remove his lance thrust to your right. Then you reach over his lance with your right arm so that you hold it under the arm, and make sure to put the sword underneath so that the cross lies against the underside of the lance. If you then continue forward, you will strike the opponent's lance out of the lance rest with your sword in your left side.</p>

<p>If your opponent comes at you on horse with his lance in the lance rest, then draw your sword and hold it before you with the point upward, and ride forward with your arm raised and as you ride forward you lower the point down on your left side. Then, when his lance gets close to you, you turn the hand so that the long edge faces up, and the short edge lies against the inside of the opponent's lance, and quickly deflect the lance with the cross to your left, and you have averted your opponent's thrust. Then make sure to pull up the sword again and thrust with the point, or hit him with the pommel in the face.</p>

If he does this to you, and you are holding the word in your right hand with the hilt before your chest and the point upward, then ride against your opponent and remove his thrust with the long edge of your sword from your left to your right side, and when you ride closer to him, you move the lance in under your right arm and your sword under it, and then you strike your pommel into his visor. If your opponent tries to do the same, you throw the lance out of the lance rest and grab hold with your right hand in his right and remove his attack thus.

<p>When your opponent has inserted his lance into the lance rest, then put your reins into the lower armour hook and hold the lance across before you, so that the point faces upward and the thicker end down on your right, and move your lance point to the outside of the opponent's lance on his right side, and if you then move his lance with your left side to his left, you have averted his thrust and he is forced to drop his lance. If you then ride on, and make sure to lift up the lance with both arms in the air and turn in the point into the opponent and thrust him in the face or armpit.

<p>When you both have inserted your lances into the lance rests, and are about to ride toward each other, to attack each other, and you wish to trick your opponent with said technique, then turn your horse and pull the lance out of the lance rest, and pretend to flee, and pay attention to whether he pursues you with his lance in the lance rest. Then, when you see him coming toward you, you wait a little while until he comes close to you, move the lance over your right shoulder so that the point ends up between the opponent's horse's front legs, and bind with the outside of his lance. Then you hold the lance firmly with your right hand in the handle and lift the arm, as well as the lance, and you will have thwarted your opponent's thrust as well as tripped his horse. If you then turn from your right to left so that you again is facing your opponent, you may fight against him however you want.</p>

<p>In this fight you do as follows: When you have inserted the lance into the lance rest, then charge ahead with force to your opponent and aim a thrust to the upper part of his chest. If your opponent charges at you in this way, and you had not had the time to insert your lance into the lance rest, then ride toward him anyway, and hold the lance across the horse and as you charge at him you parry with the lance base from your left to your right as hard as you can.Thus the opponent will be forced to drop his lance. Then you put the reins in the lower hook in the belt of your armour, raise the lance over your head and grab hold of the front end of the lance with the right hand and with the left on the back end over your head and in this way turn in the lance base in his neck, and if you continue charging forward you will throw him out of the saddle.</p>

<p>This is what you do in this device: As soon as you have inserted the lance into the lance rest, you charge at your opponent and aim a thrust at the chest of the opponent's horse. If your opponent directs a thrust at your horse's chest in the same manner, you put the reins into the lower armour hook and ride toward him with the lance pointing to the ground, and parry to your left, so that his lance is on the outside. Then you turn down the lance handle with the right hand over your right leg and lift up your with left hand, that way you will throw the opponent's lance away when you ride past him from your left side to his left, and simultaneously you can strike or thrust him.</p>

But if your opponent has locked you in the same way, you let go of the hilt with your right hand and grab hold firmly in the inside of his arm and ride past him, and you will get free.</p>

<p>In this device you do as follows: Draw your sword and charge, holding your sword with your right hand over your right thigh, and put the blade between both ears of your sword, i.e. on the mane, and with the point aimed toward the opponent. If your opponent comes at you with the sword drawn in the same manner, then you draw your sword as well, and hold it with your right hand on your left side in side guard over your left hand. When you ride toward him in said guard and he then aims a thrust toward your visor out of aforementioned tassel guard, then remove it to your right and when you ride past him you cut him in the back of the head.</p>

If he strikes towards you from above like this and you likewise stand opposite him with your left leg, drive against his strike with your Buckler to take it away. Then immediately cut with your Sword through his face (as in illustration).

<p>This is how you behave in this skirmish: Draw your sword, and hold it with your right hand on the hilt in high guard with the point aimed toward the opponent. From this position you charge your opponent and direct a thrust with the point to your opponent's neck. If he does the same, and you are holding the sword in your right hand, then ride toward him too with your sword drawn in side guard on your right side. Then you raise your sword toward his and remove his thrust on your left side, ride past him and strike or thrust him however you want in the right side of his head.</p>

[31] '''A High thrust against a low one '''
 
  
Step forward with your left leg, and hold your buckler in your left hand facing straight towards your opponent, and the rapier in your right hand held high above your head with the long edge facing upwards. Then thrust from above towards his face or chest. Then turn your hand so that the long edge faces upwards and do a double thrust to his chest. If your opponent should thrust at your face from above, and you are standing with your left foot forward, with your buckler in your left hand and your rapier in your right, then move your buckler toward his thrust and parry it to your left. If he do a double thrust, then parry his thrust with the short edge, step forward with your right foot and thrust at his chest with turned hand so that the long edge faces up. Should your opponent do this, then step back with your left foot and with a double cut from below, and thus you have countered your opponent's attack.

Stand with your left foot forward and strike a hard strike from above toward your opponent's head with the long edge. If he does this to you, and you are standing with your left foot forward, thne turn your long edge forward and bind at the same time in the middle of his blade, pull back the blade above and thrust into his belly or groin. If your opponent should do this to you, then remove his thrust to your left with your buckler. If he then tries to thrust from below then lay your buckler over his sword and parry to your left. Then step with your right foot on your opponent's left side and thrust with a hanging point to his left side. If he sees this, then strike away his thrust with your buckler and step back with your left foot, that way his strike and his thrust too short to be able to hurt you.  
+
<p>When you both charge at each other with swords drawn, and your opponent strikes from above toward your head, then ride forward to his right side and turn up the long edge against his strike and parry with the cross. When you have come close you turn up the hilt with the pommel first over his sword and move the pommel over his right hand so that it comes under his pommel. If you then press down to your left when riding past him, putting your reins into the lower armour hook, you may grab his chin with your left hand and pull him away, so that he falls backwards when you ride past him. If you notice this happen to you, then put your reins into the belt hook, and grab hold with both hands on the inside of his arm, and push away hard, and you will get away. </p>

Step forward with your left foot and strike from above with your sword and make sure to wound your opponent's neck.

If your opponent should strike toward your head on the other hand, then parry with your buckler and strike him in the leg. If he does the same, then pull back the sword from his buckler and strike a lower thwart strike inward, so that you bind with his sword and parry thus on your right side. Then you thrust him in the belly or groin. If he tries to do this to you, then parry with the short edge and move away from him with cross strikes and double thrusts.

If your opponent does this on the other hand, then ride toward him as well, but do not draw your sword, but instead grab hold of the mouthpiece on the opponent's horse as you may see on the picture and lift up on your right side. If the horse is about to rear forcefully, then quickly ride close to him and lift up the mouthpiece, and both the horse and the opponent will fall over at the same time. But if the horse is not as incline to rear up on its hind legs, then do not use this technique, as it is much too risky. Instead you grab hold underneath on his right arm with your right hand and you will get away from the opponent safe from harm.</p>

<p>When you ride toward each other, but neither of you want to draw your swords, but both want to get ahead of the other, then do as follows: If he tries to grab hold of the reins of your horse, then ride forward as quickly as you can toward him and grab hold with right hand in his left shoulder and make sure that you get a firm grip in his neck and helmet. Then you kick with your right spur in the opponent's right foot, and pull hard to you so that he is weakened both above and below. If you then ride past him you will pull him out of his saddle and lay him over on your own horse.</p>

[35] '''Strike to a buckler parry'''
 
  
Step forward with your right foot and hold your sword by your right breast with the point toward the opponent and your buckler in front of your face, and when your opponent steps forward with the left foot and strikes from above to your head as he takes a step forward with his right foot, you move your buckler forward and parry it to your left, as you step forward with your left foot and thrust him in the belly or groin. If your opponent does this, then push the thrust down to your right with your buckler as you step back with your right foot and do cross strikes and double thrusts.

<p>In this fight, where neither has drawn the sword but decided to attack with your bare hands, and your opponent tries to pull you out of your saddle and put you on his own horse, and he then is about to grab hold of your left shoulder, then reach with your right hand over his right arm and push away from you, and you will get free. Then you pull his right arm over your saddle bow, i.e. front and upper part of your saddle and lean over it with your upper body. Then you turn your horse from his right to your left, and you will pull him out of his saddle.</p>

<p>When you both ride to attack each other bare handed, and neither of you has drawn your swords and you then notice your opponent turn his back toward you, then do as follows: Pursue him as fast as you can, and grab hold from behind with your right hand in his right shoulder by the neck.

[36] '''A pull with the hilt in your opponent's arm along with a cut to his neck'''
 
  
Step forward with your left foot and hold your sword in your right hand and your buckler in your left. Then step forward with your left foot and try to thrust your opponent in his right armpit. If he tries to do thus to you, as you are standing with your left foot forward, holding your sword in your right hand, then tip your point down slightly toward your opponent, and hold your buckler in your left hand over your chest as you step forward with your right foot and put it on the outside of your opponent's right and thus you parry his thrust with a hangning point from below to your right. Immediately then pull your opponent's hand with the hilt and cross of your sword just behind his own pommel, while you with the long edge lying on your opponent's neck, pull back your pommel and hilt as hard as you can, and you will slice his neck. But if he tries to do this, then put your left foot on his right side and raise your buckler to his left side, turn your sword so that your cross is on the outside of your opponent's arm and strike it back, thus you will evade his attack.

Then you leave your own horse and jump over to his, and sit down behind him, holding him around his arms with both your hands, and then you grab hold of his reins and pull to you, and then you may ride away wherever you want with the opponent held captive.</p>

[37] '''How to take the opponent's buckler'''
 
  
Stand with your right foot forward and step forward left and thrust to his chest, and then cut to his head. If he does this to you, while you are standing with your right foot forward, then grip your sword with your left hand in the middle of the blade together with your buckler, step forward and parry his attack on the buckler. Then you raise your buckler and sword to parry and step forward with your left foot as fast as you can, and grab hold on the inside of the opponent's buckler with your right hand and twist it out of his hand. Then you throw it into his face, steb back and take your sword in your right hand and thrust him in the face or chest. If he does the same to you on the other hand, then raise up your left arm to protect your face and do a cross cut from below to counter his thrust. And if you instead of the above mentioned thrust from above out of a cross cut from above you will also counter his buckler throw and his thrust.

Then you ride in close to him and grab hold of his open visor with your right hand and push upward, and thus show him the sun, and when you ride past him you will break his neck.</p>

Then you insert between your fingers the rope with a hook attached to it that you have hidden under your arming jacket by the saddle wing, and insert it over the opponent's armour wherever you can on the right or left side, and if you then ride past him, you will pull him to the ground.</p>

[38] '''The second way of taking the opponent's buckler along with a throw'''
 
  
When you step together and both thrust at each other and both parry with the buckler, then step forward with your left foot and hold your buckler in your left hand extended toward your opponent as you thrust to his face or chest. If your opponent thrusts at you in the same manner, then grab hold of the middle of the blade with your left hand and the buckler in front of, so that the tip of the sword  is pointing up, and step forward with your left foot against his thrust. If your opponent then wants to cut at you, then step in and parry with the buckler and the sword and then swiftly grab hold of the inside if his buckler and twist it out of his hand. Then step back with the other foot and throw the buckler in his face. Then grab hold of your own sword with your right hand and then step in with your right foot and thrust hin in the face or chest. If your opponent does the same to you, and you have stepped back holding up your left arm to protect your face, you will parry his attack. If he then continues to thrust to your face or chest, then step back and cut cross cuts and double thrusts at him, and you will parry all his attacks.

<p>When you both ride close to each other with bare hands, and you both try to grab hold of the other and throw him off the horse, then make sure, since you want to come out the victor, that you close in hard on the opponent's right with your left side. Then you reach with your left arm from behind around the opponent's neck and grab hold firmly in front in his neck, spur the horse and kick his right foot with your left by the stirrup. If you continue forward past the opponent you will throw him forward over on your horse or pull him forward off the saddle. But if you see that your opponent tries to grab hold of you in the same manner, then you lift up the right arm, and strike him as hard as you can in the inside of his elbow. If you then press down hard in this way, and continue forward beside your opponent you will get free of him.</p>

Step forward with your left foot, holding your sword with the point directed at the opponent on your right side and your buckler in front of your left breast. Then step forward with your right foot and thrust to your opponent's face or chest. If your opponent attacks you in this manner, and you are standing with your right foot forward, then parry his thrust on your buckler, and step forward with your left foot on the inside of his right and cut him in the head. If your opponent tries to cut you in this manner, then hold your buckler in front of your face to parry and cut him swiftly in his face. Should he do this, then remove his cut and step close to him. Lift your buckler and move your left arm over the outside of his right arm and around, så that his right hand that he is holding his sword with ends up behind your armpit. Fasten the buckler you are holding in your left hand firmly under his right arm and put your left leg on the outside of the back of his right knee, turn you your left, and you will throw him backwards. If this were to happen to you, in that case, make sure to parry his cuts and thrusts with your buckler.  
+
<p>When you ride toward each other bare handed, you grip with your left hand turned inward onto the opponent's visor, and pull him backwards and pull him against you, and he will fall out of the saddle. If your opponent does this however, then ride as close as you can, and reach with your right arm over your opponent's left and push it down so that it ends up under your right armpit. Then you press down firmly, using your left hand to support your right and press him down over the saddle bow, and you will have him captured, and if he resists, he will pull himself out of his saddle when he rides past you. If you want to, you may also break his arm by turning your horse to your left from his right side.</p>

Put your right foot forward and thrust from above with the sword in your right hand and hold your buckler with the left arm outstretched by the sword pointing at your opponent. Then step forward with your left foot and thrust from below a half thrust to your opponent's belly or chest. If your opponent comes att you in this manner, then step forward with your right foot and parry the thrust with your buckler. Should he parry your thrust thus, then without hesitation, cut a thwart cut to his head. If your opponent does this, then put together both hands holding the sword and the buckler and parry the strike this way. Then you step in quickly and move your left arm over his right behind his sword and hold firmly, as you thrust him in the chest. However, if your opponent has taken hold of you in said manner and tries to thrust you in the chest, then parry with the buckler. Should your opponent parry with the buckler then, step with your left foot as fast as you can behind the back of his right knee as you take a firm hold of your opponent's right armpit with the left arm. If you then push away from you and upward, your opponent will fall backwards and lose his sword. If this were to happen to you, then kick him in the groin with the other foot and parry with your buckler his cuts and thrusts or whatever he were to do to you.  
+
<p>When you both charge each other without drawing your swords, and you wish to emerge the victor, then do as follows: when you close in on your opponent's right side with your own right, you put your right hand on the opponent's visor, and push it away from you when you ride past him, and you will thrown the opponent backwards. If you notice he does the same, you wrap your right arm around his and press it hard to your chest. If your opponent tries to do this, however, you lower your hand and press down his left hand holding the reins, and quickly. Then you pull him over to your right side. Furthermore, should your opponent try to throw you in the same manner, when he rides past you, you grab hold firmly with your right hand that you have wrapped over your opponent's arm onto the saddle wing, just by the upper part of the saddle, and with the left hand in the saddle bow, i.e. front part of the saddle and press down forcefully with your elbow on the inside of the opponent's elbow as you ride past him, and he is forced to let go or be thrown over, and his attack is for nothing.</p>

<p>If someone comes up from behind who is faster than you, and you both are empty handed, and your opponent comes up with his left side on your right, and reaches around your neck with his left arm from behind and takes a firm hold of you to abduct you ore throw you against him, then make sure as soon as the opponent comes close, that you wrap your right arm around your opponent's on the outside. Then you let go of the reins with your left hand and insert them in the lower armour hook, and use it(the left hand) to support your right and you will get free of him above, and at the same time you hold his arm against your chest. If you continue forward, you will have him captured. But if you want to throw him to the ground, you pull his arm over the saddle bow and hold it firmly, and grab the reins with your left hand again. Then you turn your horse from the opponent's left side you your right, as you hold his arm as hard as you can, and you will throw him to the ground.</p>

[1]'''A parry against a death strike with the poleaxe'''
 
  
Step forward with your right foot towards your opponent and hold your poleaxe over your hed with both hands and the point directed at the opponent. If he is standing with his left foot forward and is about to strike you with a death strike, then parry his attack to your left. Then you pull back your ase and thrust him in the groin. If your opponent does this on the other hand, you parry with the back end, and step forward with your right foot and strike him in the head with the axe blade. If he parries with the shaft between his hands you turn in the back end between his arms into his face. If he does this, then step back with your right foot and parry with the shaft between your arms. If he parries, you strike again to his upper opening. If your opponent strikes at you in the same manner, you parry with the shaft. Then, if you pull you your right you will thrust him win the face with the point. Then you change through with the axe and step back.

| <p>[61] '''Grab in front.'''</p>
  
| {{paget|page:MS Dresd.C.94|164r|png}}
+
<p>When you both ride toward each other empty handed, and you wish to emerge victorious, you hold your right hand over the right leg, with the arm close to your body, and ride in with your right side against your opponent's right. When you have come together, you move your right arm in front over and around his neck and push yourself against him with the upper body, and as you push away from you above with the arm on his neck, and you will throw him backwards. If your opponent holds you in the same grip, and wants to drag you out of the saddle, then move your right arm over his right elbow and press down hard. Then you grab hold with both hands in your saddle bow, and continue riding forward, that way the opponent will throw himself. This technique can be done in many ways.</p>

<p>When you both charge at each other empty handed, and you wish win the victory, then do as follows: hold your arms close to the body and the reins hard with your left hand near your chest by the saddle bow. Then you ride in with your left side onto your opponent's left side as close as you can, and grab hold with your left hand(sic) onto the opponent's visor. If he attacks you thus, then insert the reins into the front armour hook, and grab hold with your left hand on the inside of his elbow and press down to your right as hard as you can. Then you put your right hand behind his neck and grab hold in his visor by the right eye or around his chin, and pull forward as you press down hard. When you have done this, you take your reins again with your left hand and hold hard in the saddle bow. Then, if you press down, and at the same time pull to you above as you ride past, and kick the opponent's left foot with your left just by the stirrup, you will throw him off the horse easily.</p>

[2]'''A death strike against a thrust to the chest'''
 
  
This device is executed thus. Stand with both legs straight and hold the shaft of your axe with both hands and the left hand raised behind your head. Then you step forward with your right foot and strike your opponent in the head with the blade of the axe. If your opponent comes at you like this, and you are standing with your left foot forward, holding the axe with your right hand at head hight and the left hand on the lower end pointing to the opponent, then parry with the shaft to your right. Then you thrust him in the chest with the front point. If he would do the same, then parry his thrust on the shaft between your hands to your left, and thrust him with the front point over his left hand and into his chest, and pull towards you hard. When you have done this, you may change through and move back.

<p>When you both ride toward each other and you then ride in with your right side onto the opponent's left, as soon as you get close to him, reach with your hand over the opponent's horse's neck and grab hold of the steel rods on its mouthpiece. If you then pull upward, the opponent's horse will rear. But if your opponent tries to do the same to you, just as he leans forward to grab hold of the mouth piece, you grab hold of him and wrap your right arm around the back of his neck and pull him to you as you press him down as hard as you can against your saddle bow. Then your grab hold with your left hand in his left and press down, you have averted his attack, as well as you have pinned him down and may capture him.</p>

In this device you do thus: step forward with your right foot and hold your poleaxe in good defence turned toward the opponent. Then you step forward with your left foot and strike a death strike to his head with the axe. If your opponent comes at you in the same manner, and you are holding the poleaxe in both hands then grab the upper end of the shaft with your right and the lower with the left, step forward with your right foot and remove his strike to the left with the shaft. Then you step forward with your left foot and direct the back end over both arms, switch grips, and pull your opponent's right hand toward you (above) with the axe blade, and below, with his left hand with your left arm. If your opponent were to do this, then let go with your right hand, grab his left shoulder and push him away from you. Should he do this on the other hand, then you step back with your left foot and direct a thrust with the front point into his chest, and step back from him in good defense.  
+
<p>When riding towards each other's left sides, then reach with your left hand over your opponent's left arm and take hold of it underneath in his left armpit. If your opponent as taken hold of you thus, you quickly insert the reins into your front armour hook, and grab with your right hand on the outside of your opponent's left elbow, and with your left hand in his left and press down in this manner, and at the same time you raise his elbow, and you will break his arm. Then you ride away from him.</p>

[5]'''A thrust to the groin against a turning in'''
 
  
this device is performed thus: stand with the left foot forward and hold the axe raised over in front of your face with the right hand on the middle of the shaft and the left on the back end. Then, step forward with the right foot and thrust your opponent in the groin. If he does this to you, and you are standing with your right foot forward, holding your axe before your face with both hands, right hand on the back end and the left by the blade, then parry to your left with the back end and strike hom in the head with the blade. If he parries on the shaft between his hands, you thrust the back end into his face between his both arms. Should he parry this as well, you step back with your left foot and strike him in the right arm with the blade. Then you step away from him while turning the axe around.

If you want to be the victor in this device, do as follows: stand with your right foot forward and raise the axe up in front of your face on your left side, and holding the right hand on the back end and the left on the middle of the blade. Then you step forward with your left foot and strike him in the head with the blade. Should he parry between his hands on the shaft, then move down your front end as well as the blade into the back of his right knee, and pull toward you. If he should do this, however, then put your axe blade around his neck, and pull toward you, that way he cannot hurt you. If your opponent pulls you toward him in the same manner, then take a triangle step and parry his strike between both hands on your shaft, and push up, that way you will weaken him above. Then, let go of the axe with your left hand and grab hold of his right leg and lift it up, and you will throw him backwards.

[7]'''A breaking in with the axe'''
 
  
When you enter before your opponent, then stand straight with your feet together holding your axe raised up with both hands before your face. Step forward with your left foot and strike him in the head with the blade of your axe. If he were to do this to you, then strike against his strike and parry this way. Then you move in the lower end over his right arm and press your opponent's axe and yours together with your right hand. Then, turn to your right and you will pull his axe rather painfully out of his hands. If he breaks in in the same way and wants to take your axe from you, then leg him do so, and grab hold on the outside of his right armpit with your left hand, and push him away forcefully as you grab hold of the axe with the right hand again and step back. Then strike a death strike to his head with the blade.

<p>When you both have clashed together, and you have lost your lance, you turn your horse quickly and run back to it, and as soon as you dismount you hold the reins with your left hand so that you are holding your horse turned toward your opponent. This way the opponent cannot hurt you, and both him and his horse will wear out. Furthermore, you can keep yourself safe from the opponent as long as you wish and at the same time retrieve your lance. When you have gotten it back, you hold it with both hands, with the left above and the right below by the handle, and press the back end of the lance into the ground. Then you let your horse go. When your opponent then comes at you at full speed, and has only inserted his lance into the lance rest on its middle, you raise the point of your lance firmly at his face and remove his lance in the inside to your left and down on his right side. Then you raise your right arm and lower your left and press down the lance in the ground in front of the horse and if you then at the same time step to the left of your opponent, he will fall to the ground and lose his lance. Then you may fight with him however you please.</p>

| <p>[73] '''A tripping of both horse and rider.'''</p>
 +
 +
<p>If your mounted opponent has drawn his sword and charges at you, and you are on the ground, then hold your lance with right hand on the handle and the left on the front end, right foot forward. When the opponent comes charging at you at full speed, then grab hold of the lance for a thrust with the front end with both hands, and thrust the lance point between the opponent's horse's front legs and raise the back end of the lance as high as you can with both hands, and you will fell both horse and rider. Then you may use whatever techniques you want against him.</p>

[8]'''A death strike against a pull'''
 
  
Excute this device as follows: step forward with your right foot and hold the axe with both hands on the shaft and strike a death strike to his head with the blade. If he comes at you like this, and you are standing with your left foot forward, then turn the front end in between his arms and put the axe on the right side of his neck, and thus you may parry his strike with the back end. Then you pull the opponent toward you with the axe blade. If your opponent does this, on the other hand, then switch hands from below with the right hand on the outside of the axe and this way you press the opponent's axe down and cut him in the left side of his neck with the axe blade. If he uses the same technique, then parry his strike you your right and thrust him in the face with the front end, and move away from him.

| <p>[1] '''Instruction on how both combatants shall engage each other'''</p>
 +
 +
<p>Thus the two armoured fighters enter the arena or enclosure to fight. Both combatants are for the most part armed with a spear, a sword, and a dagger, and they fight the whole time on life and death, until one is so exhausted he can no longer fend for his life. If one of them is so weak that he is no longer able to fight, he must give up all his property to the victor, and the victor can either accept, or take the life of his opponent. When engaging into battle, they call to the Lord. If you are standing with your left foot forward, holding your spear in your left hand held straight out with the point upward and the back end on the ground, your sword by your left side and your right hand on the hilt, and if your opponent then is standing in armour before you in the same manner, and you are then standing with your left foot forward, holding your spear in the middle with your right hand, you raise your arm above your head so that the point is directed toward your opponent and your sword rests on your left shoulder with your left hand on the hilt, then make sure to throw or twist the spear into his face or left armpit. Of your opponent comes at you thus, then hold your spear upright in front of you, and in this manner you will parry his attack to your left, and if you at the same time move to the side, you have defended yourself from your opponent's thrust.</p>

[9]'''A strike from above against a thrust'''
 
When stepping toward each other, stand with your left foot forward and hold your axe raised before your face with both hands. Then step forward with your right foot and strike your opponent in the head with the axe blade. If your opponent comes at you thus, and you are standing with your left foot forward, holding the axe with the left hand on the front end facing the opponent, and the right hand the back end, then parry his strike between your hands on the shaft, and thrust him in the neck with your front end. If your opponent does this, then remove his thrust with the front end to your right, and thrust him over his left arm into his face. If he does this, then parry with the axe blade, step forward with the right foot and thrust him in the chest with the front end between his arms, and move away from him while turning the axe around.

 +
<p>Put your left foot forward and hold your spear in the middle of the shaft with your left hand and the arm stretched out over your head, your sword in your right hand over your chest with the tip pointing upward, and thrust the spear into the opponent's chest. If he does this to you, and you are standing with your left foot forward holding your spear before you in the middle of the shaft with both hands, then raise the spear and remove his thrust to your right. Then step forward with your right foot arms raised and thrust to his face. If he tries to do this to you, you parry his thrust to your left with the left arm. Grab hold of his spear with the left hand thrust him with the sword into his face or armpit. This will cause your opponent to let go of his spear.</p>

When you have parried this way, you let go of the spear and grab hold with the left hand in the middle of the sword and try to thrust him into the chest or armpit. If your opponent on the other hand attacks you thus, then step forward with your right foot and place it by his left and remove his thrust with the spear from right to left, and thus you have parried his thrust.</p>

[10]'''A chest guard against a parry'''
 
  
In this device you do as follows: stand with your left foot forward, holding your axe with both hands, front end in the left hand facing the opponent, and the right hand on the back end held against the chest. Then step forward with your right foot and strike a windstrike from your chest at your opponent's head. If your opponent attacks you in this manner, and you are standing with your right foot forward holding the right hand on the back end facing him, and the left hand on the front end to your left, then steo boack with your right foot and parry his strike on the shaft between your hands, and step forward again with your left foot and thrust him in the face with the back end.

<p>Step forward with your left foot and hold the spear with the right hand in the middle with the point straight upward, and your sword in the left hand by your left hip. If your opponent is then standing in armour before you, with right leg forward, sword and spear held together with both hands over his forward leg, and his left hand on the hilt by the hip, then you hold the spear in the middle with your right hand, raise it over your head and thrust the tip into the visor of your opponent. If he attacks you thus, then you step forward with the left foot and raise sword and spear from left to right and remove his thrust to your right side. Then you let go of the spear and thrust him into the visor with the sword. If your opponent thrusts at your visor in the same manner, you step back with your left leg and grab the hilt with your right hand and your left on the middle of the blade, step forward again with the left foot, raise the sword and turn away his point with your forward point you your right, and thrust twice to his head.</p>

[11]'''Two wind-ins with your back ends'''
 
  
In this device you stand with your right foot forward, right hand holding your back end pointing toward your opponent and left hand by the axe blade, and from here you step forward with your left foot, and thrust your opponent in the ned with the back end between his arms. If he comes at you thus, and you are standing with your feet together then parry his thrust with the back end you your right. Then step forward with your left foot and thrust your opponent in the face with the back end between his arms. If he parries, then swiftly hit him as hard as you can in the head with the axe blade. If he attacks your head in this manner, then parry his strike between your hands on the shaft. Then press his axe down with your axe blade and thrust him with the front end in the face, and then move away from him.

Then step forward with your right foot and raise the pommel towards your opponent's face. Then, you move the sword in with the left hand between both his arms and lay the long edge against the opponent's neck. If he does this to you, and you are standing with your right foot forward, you turn your sword up outside his left elbow and put the pommel against his neck. Should the opponent do this, however, and tries to throw you over, you raise the sword forcefully and direct it over both his arms with the short edge, and enter into said guard.</p>

When stepping together, you and your opponent, then do as follows: step toward your opponent with your left foot, and hold your axe with the left hand on the blade facing the opponent, and the right hand on the back end by your head. Then continue forward with your right foot and thrust your opponent in the chest with the front end. If he attacks you thus, and you are standing with your right foot forward, holding the axe with both hands by your left side, then raise the back end, and parry his thrust to your left. Then you step forward with your left foot and strike a middle strike to his right side with your blade. If he does this, you parry with the shaft. Then, press down his axe with your axe blade to your left and thrust him in the chest. If he parries on the shaft between his hands, then strike him with the axe blade in the head, and move away from him.

| <p>[12] '''A pull followed by a throw'''</p>
 +
 
 +
<p>In this battle you do thus: step forward with your left foot and hold your pommel on your right side, with your left hand on the middle of blade and thrust your opponent in the groin. If your opponent tries to do the same to you, and you are standing with your left foot forward, you parry with the point of your sword and turn the pommel into the opponent's left elbow, and press him down on your left side. If he does this, on the other hand, you let go of the sword, take his dagger, and pull him towards you. Then if you take his dagger that you have twisted out of the opponent's hands (sic), put it around his neck, put your left hand under your arm, grab hold of the tip of the dagger and pull towards you, you will throw the opponent on his back with his own dagger.</p>

[13]'''A parry against a strike to the leg'''
 
  
When engaging your opponent, stand with both feet together, while holding your axe raised over your head with both hands. From this position, step forward with your left foot and direct a strike with the blade from above at your opponent's forward leg. If you are standing with your left foot forward, and he is striking at your leg, then lower your axe and put it in front of your left leg with the front end on the ground, and parry his strike thus. Then you raise the axe, step forward with your right foot, and thrust him in the neck with the front end. If he parries with the blade on his right side, then change through below with the point, and thrust him in the left side. If he tries to do this, then parry with the axe blade to your left, step forward with your right foot and thrust with both points to his face and chest. Then you strike him in the head with the axe blade and step away from him.

<p>In this device you do as follows: stand with your left foot forward and hold your sword outstretched towards your opponent with the left hand on the point. Let go of the hilt with the right hand and move it to the left and strike a death blow to the opponent's head with the cross and pommel. If your opponent tries to do this against you, and you are standing with your left foot forward, left hand on the middle of the blade and the pommel against your left leg, then thrust him in the left elbow with the point. Then you step forward with the right foot and raise the sword and you have averted his strike. If he does the same thing to you, you step back with the left foot and take hold of the hilt again with your right hand, and parry the opponent's thrust on the middle of the blade between your hands, and thrust him swiftly in his forward foot. </p>

[14]'''Cross parry against a thrust to the groin'''
+
 
Do as follows: stand with your right foot forward and hold your axe with both hands over your head, front end in the right hand facing the opponent, and the left on the back end. Then, step forward with your left foot and thrust him in the groin with the front end. If he does this to you, and you are standing with your left foot forward, holding the axe with crossed arms facing toward him, left hand by the blade and the right on the shaft, then step back with the left foot and parry his thrust to your left with the back end, then step forward again with your left foot and thrust with the front end from below in his face or chest. If the opponent does this, however, you parry his thrust on the shaft between your hand, step in triangle, hit him in the head with the blade and step away from him.  
+
<p>In this device you put your left foot forward when stepping in before your opponent, and hold sword with the pommel by the left leg and the left hand in the middle of the blade, and from here, you thrust him in the left hand. If he tries to do the same, and you are standing with your right foot forward, also with the left hand on the middle of the middle of the blade and the pommel facing the opponent, then you put the pommel over his right arm, lift the sword up and counter his thrust thus. Then you insert pommel in between his both arms and punch it hard into his chest or neck. If he does the same thing, you raise your pommel and turn it over the right arm, and set on the point of your sword in front by his right arm, and push up. That way you have averted his attack. Then, let go of the hilt with the right hand and join it to support your left, step back with the left foot and strike him in the head with the pommel. </p>

| <p>[15] '''A throw with a turn of the pommel'''</p>
[15]'''A death strike against a crossed set on as described below'''
 
  
When you engage each other, you do thus: stand with your left foot forward, holding your axe facing the opponent with crossed arms. Then step forward and thrust him with the front end in his left arm to set him on. Now, if you are standing with your left foot forward and he tries to thrust you in the left arm, then step back with the left foot and parry with the blade to your left. Then step forward again, and hit him in the head with a death strike with the blade. If he comes at you thus, then parry between your hands, step forward with your right foot and thrust with the front end in his face or chest. Should he parry, then step back with the right foot and strike a wind strike to his forward left leg, and then step away from him.  
+
<p>If you want to perform this device, then do as follows: stand with left foot forward and hold the sword out raised before your face, grab hold with the left hand in the hilt and the right hand in the point. Then you move the pommel in under your opponent's arm and punch it into his right side. After that, you move your sword behind your back with the right hand on the shoulder, and raise up your left hand, and you have executed this technique correctly. If your opponent does this, however, and is about to step into your right side, you place the right foot on the outside behind his left, grab hold with the left hand on the hilt and the right hand in the middle of the blade, and if you then turn in the sword over his left arm and the middle of his sword, you will reach his throat, and if you then press down with the left hand and pull the right hand above to your right, you will force the opponent to fall backwards. </p>

Perform this device as follows: step forward with your right foot, and hold your axe lifted up over your head with both hands on the back end. Then continue forward with your left foot and strike him in the right side of his head with an athwart strike. If he tries to do the same, and you are standing with your left foot toward him in scale position, while holding both hands so that the front end is leaning on the ground, then lift the axe and parry his strike between your hands on the shaft. If he parries thus, then put the front end of your axe on his left arm to set him on. If he as set you on in this manner, then parry it with your blade, then lock his axe with your blade and thrust the front end into his chest with a forceful push, and you will thrust him to the ground.  
+
<p>Step forward with the left foot and hold the sword outstretched above your head, with the point pointing down, right hand on the hilt and left hand in the middle of the blade, and from this position you thrust your opponent in the groin. If he attacks you in this manner, while you are standing with your right foot forward, right hand on the hilt and the left in the middle of the blade, you parry his thrust, and punch in hard in the chest with the pommel. Then you turn the pommel over his left arm, step in with the left foot between his both legs pull the pommel to you, and raise the left hand. If he tries to do the same to you, you let go with the left hand and you will get away from his attack. Then you pull back the left foot, place the left hand in the middle of the blade again and thrust him in the face with the point. </p>

[1]'''A thrust against a parry'''
 
  
In this device you step forward with your left foot and hold your spear and the shield together in your left hand and the sword in the right, and from there you thrust at your opponent's throat with the spearpoint. If he does this, on the other hand, and you, just as him, are standing with your left foot forward, with the shield and sword in your left hand and the spear in your right, you parry his thrust with the pommel of your sword, and then you thrust at his face with your spear. If he attacks you with a thrust in the same manner, you raise the shield and parry thus. But if he parries with his shield, you direct your thrust into his visor. Furthermore, should he do the same thing, you parry his attack to your right with your shield, drop your spear, step forward with your right foot, grab the sword with your right hand, and strike him in his right elbow and step away from him.

Then you step forward with the right foot and strike him in the face with the pommel. If he does the same to you, you step back with the left foot and parry his attack between both hands in the middle of the blade. Then you thrust the point into his face and move away from him. </p>

If your opponent does this, however, and you are standing with your right foot forward, you parry with the cross to your right and punch him in the face with the pommel from below.<ref>The text is a bit ambiguous on how this is done, but judging from the picture it seems as the you are already having the pommel on your right side and the strike to the face and the parry is done in the same motion.</ref> If he does the same to you, you move his strike down with the sword between both your hands. Then you move the sword to the left under his right arm and place the pommel over his sword by his right hand and pull him to your right. Moreover, should he do the same, you turn your pommel and hilt over his sword between both his arms, and press down, that way you will punch the point into the head of the opponent. Then you turn the sword around and move away from him. </p>

<p>When entering before your opponent, step forward with your left foot and hold the sword with the hilt over the chest to your right and the left hand on the middle of the blade, and from here you thrust the point into the opponent's left arm. If you are then standing with your left foot forward and he attacks you this way, then you parry on the blade and direct your tip over his left arm and thrust him in the chest. If he parries on his sword, you step forward with your right foot and hit him with the pommel on the inside of his left elbow. If he does this, you parry on the blade between your hands, move the pommel outside his sword and hit him in the chest. If he defends himself in this manner, you step back with your left foot and grab hold with the hilt with both hands and hit him in the head with the lower part of the sword as hard as you can. </p>

Thus you perform this device: step forward with your left foot and hold your sword and spear together with both hands and thrust to your opponent's groin with your spear point. Of he attacks you below in this manner, and you are also standing with your left foot forward, holding your spear in both hands on your right side, then parry his thrust on the shield, throw it and thrust him in the throat with your spear point. If he thrusts at you in the same way, and you have thrown away your shield as well, then step back with your left foot and remove his thrust with the front end of your spear. Then you step forward again with your left foot and aim a thrust at his visor. If he attacks you in the same manner, then parry with your spear, drop it, step back with your left foot and draw your sword, grab it with both hands and step forward with your left foot and thrust him in the neck with the tip. If he parries this as well, then grab hold with both hands on the middle of the blade and strike him in the head with cross and pommel, and then you step away from him.

Signature Paulus Hector Mair Sig.png

Paulus Hector Mair (Paulsen Hektor Mayr, Paulus Hector Meyer; 1517 – 1579) was a 16th century German aristocrat, civil servant, and fencer. He was born in 1517 to a wealthy and influential Augsburg patrician family. In his youth, he likely received training in fencing and grappling from the masters of Augsburg fencing guild, and early on developed a deep fascination with fencing treatises. He began his civil service as a secretary to the Augsburg City Council; by 1541, Mair was the city treasurer, and in 1545 he also took on the office of Master of Rations.

Mair's martial background is unknown, but as a citizen of a free city he would have had military obligations whenever the city went to war, and as a member of a patrician family he likely served in the cavalry. He was also an avid collector of fencing treatises and other literature on military history. Like his contemporary Joachim Meyer, Mair believed that the Medieval martial arts were being forgotten, and he saw this as a tragedy, idealizing the arts of fencing as a civilizing and character-building influence on men. Where Meyer sought to update the traditional fencing systems and apply them to contemporary weapons of war and defense, Mair was more interested in preserving historical teachings intact. Thus, some time in the latter part of the 1540s he commissioned what would become the most extensive compendium of German fencing treatises ever made, a massive two-volume manuscript compiling virtually every fencing treatise he could access. He retained Jörg Breu the Younger to create the illustrations for the text,[1] and hired two Augsburg fencers to pose for the illustrations.[2] This project was extraordinarily expensive and took at least four years to complete. Ultimately, three copies of this compendium were produced, each more extensive than the last; the first (MSS Dresden C.93/C.94) was written in Early New High German, the second and most artistically ambitious (Cod.icon. 393) in New Latin, and the rougher third version (Cod. 10825/10826) incorporated both languages.

Beginning in the 1540s, Mair began purchasing older fencing manuscripts, some from fellow collector Lienhart Sollinger (a Freifechter who lived in Augsburg for many years) and others from auctions. Perhaps most significant of all of his acquisitions was the partially-completed treatise of Antonius Rast, a Master of the Long Sword and three-time Captain of the Marxbrüder fencing guild. The venerable master left it incomplete when he died in 1549, and in 1553 Mair produced a complete fencing manual (Reichsstadt "Schätze" Nr. 82) based on his notes. Ultimately, he owned over a dozen fencing manuscripts over the course of his life, including the following:

He also used several printed books as source material for his compendia, and presumably owned copies, including Der Allten Fechter gründtliche Kunst (printed by Christian Egenolff), Opera Nova by Achille Marozzo, and Ringer Kunst by Fabian von Auerswald.

Mair not only spent incredible sums of money on his fencing interests, but generally lead a lavish lifestyle and maintained his political influence with expensive parties and other entertainments for the burghers and patricians of Augsburg. This habit of living far beyond his means for decades exhausted his family's wealth, eventually leading him to sell the Latin version of his fencing manuscript (netting the princely sum of 800 florins) and finally to begin embezzling money from the Augsburg city coffers. This embezzlement was not discovered for many years (or perhaps was overlooked due to the favor his parties garnered), until finally in 1579 a disgruntled assistant reported him to the Augsburg City Council and provoked an audit of his books. Mair was arrested, tried, and hanged as a thief at the age of 62. After Mair's death, his effects (including his library) were sold at auction to recoup some of the funds he had embezzled.

Whether viewed as an unwise scholar who paid the ultimate price for his art or an ignoble thief who violated his city's trust, Mair remains one of the most influential figures in the history of Kunst des Fechtens. By completing the fencing manual of Antonius Rast, Mair gave us valuable insight into the Nuremberg fencing tradition; his own works are impressive on both an artistic and practical level, and his extensive commentary on the fencing illustrations in his collection serves to make potentially useful training aids out of what would otherwise be mere curiosities. Finally, in purchasing so many important fencing treatises he succeeded in preserving them for future generations; they were purchased by the fabulously wealthy Fugger family after his death and ultimately passed to the Augsburg University Library, where they remain to this day.

Treatise

Much of Mair's content represents his revision and expansion of the older treatises listed above, including adding descriptive content to uncaptioned illustrations. Where available, these illustrations are displayed in the left-most column, labeled "Source Illustrations", for comparison purposes. Mair's own illustrations appear in the second column, alongside the translation.

The Dresden version contains the fewest devices and artwork most reminiscent of Breu's style, and appears therefore to be the original copy. The Munich adds additional plays and sections on top of the Dresden's contents, and the Vienna likewise augments the Munich, suggesting that this is likely order of creation; conversely, the Dresden has no unique content, and the only unique plays in the Munich are in the section on jousting. To give a visual sense of this evolution of the work, the Dresden illustrations are used wherever possible; the Munich illustrations appear only in those plays that are omitted from the Dresden, and the Vienna in those that are unique to that work.

[1] Instruction on how both combatants shall engage each other

Thus the two armoured fighters enter the arena or enclosure to fight. Both combatants are for the most part armed with a spear, a sword, and a dagger, and they fight the whole time on life and death, until one is so exhausted he can no longer fend for his life. If one of them is so weak that he is no longer able to fight, he must give up all his property to the victor, and the victor can either accept, or take the life of his opponent. When engaging into battle, they call to the Lord. If you are standing with your left foot forward, holding your spear in your left hand held straight out with the point upward and the back end on the ground, your sword by your left side and your right hand on the hilt, and if your opponent then is standing in armour before you in the same manner, and you are then standing with your left foot forward, holding your spear in the middle with your right hand, you raise your arm above your head so that the point is directed toward your opponent and your sword rests on your left shoulder with your left hand on the hilt, then make sure to throw or twist the spear into his face or left armpit. Of your opponent comes at you thus, then hold your spear upright in front of you, and in this manner you will parry his attack to your left, and if you at the same time move to the side, you have defended yourself from your opponent's thrust.

Template:Section Template:Section Template:Section
Cgm 1507 20r.jpg
Mair's armored fencing 02.png

[2] Another technique with the spear

Put your left foot forward and hold your spear in the middle of the shaft with your left hand and the arm stretched out over your head, your sword in your right hand over your chest with the tip pointing upward, and thrust the spear into the opponent's chest. If he does this to you, and you are standing with your left foot forward holding your spear before you in the middle of the shaft with both hands, then raise the spear and remove his thrust to your right. Then step forward with your right foot arms raised and thrust to his face. If he tries to do this to you, you parry his thrust to your left with the left arm. Grab hold of his spear with the left hand thrust him with the sword into his face or armpit. This will cause your opponent to let go of his spear.

Template:Section Template:Section Template:Section
Cgm 1507 20v.jpg
Mair's armored fencing 03.png

[3] One more technique as the previous

Step forward with your left foot and hold your spear in the left hand and the sword drawn, and thrust with the spear at your opponent's face or chest. If your opponent attacks you in the same manner, and you are standing with your left foot forward, you remove his thrust with the spear from right to left. When you have parried this way, you let go of the spear and grab hold with the left hand in the middle of the sword and try to thrust him into the chest or armpit. If your opponent on the other hand attacks you thus, then step forward with your right foot and place it by his left and remove his thrust with the spear from right to left, and thus you have parried his thrust.

Template:Section Template:Section Template:Section
Cod.I.6.4º.5 IIv.jpg
Mair's armored fencing 04.png

[4] Another technique with the spear

Step forward with your left foot and hold the spear with the right hand in the middle with the point straight upward, and your sword in the left hand by your left hip. If your opponent is then standing in armour before you, with right leg forward, sword and spear held together with both hands over his forward leg, and his left hand on the hilt by the hip, then you hold the spear in the middle with your right hand, raise it over your head and thrust the tip into the visor of your opponent. If he attacks you thus, then you step forward with the left foot and raise sword and spear from left to right and remove his thrust to your right side. Then you let go of the spear and thrust him into the visor with the sword. If your opponent thrusts at your visor in the same manner, you step back with your left leg and grab the hilt with your right hand and your left on the middle of the blade, step forward again with the left foot, raise the sword and turn away his point with your forward point you your right, and thrust twice to his head.

[5] First upper and lower guard

Do the lower guard as follows: stand with your left foot forward and hold the sword with left hand on the middle of the blade and the right hand on the hilt over your right leg. Then raise the sword to a winding, and direct a thrust to your opponent's right hand. If he does this, then you direct your tip on the inside over the right arm. Should your opponent do this, and you are standing in the upper guard and with the left foot forward, you move your hilt from below and turn it in over your opponent's left arm, grab hold with your right hand above in his hilt and move both swords together. If he holds your sword in the same manner, then let go of the hilt with your right hand and grab hold of the tip of your sword, step back with the left foot and away from the opponent.

[6] The two side guards on right and left side

Do this device as follows: step forward with the left foot and hold your sword in front over your left leg with the point towards the opponent. Then, step forward with the right foot, raise the sword and direct the pommel towards your opponent's face. If you are then standing with your right foot forward, and see your opponent moving his pommel towards you, you press down with the middle of the sword and turn in your pommel with the right hand from underneath on the inside of his right arm. Then you step with the left foot behind his right and lay the sword against his neck. If he should do the same to you, then raise the pommel with the right hand over your head and step back with the right foot, and you will turn away from him in the previous guard.

[7] Third guard on both sides

In this guard you do as follows: stand with your left foot forward and hold your sword to your right with the point downward. Then step forward with your right foot and raise the pommel towards your opponent's face. Then, you move the sword in with the left hand between both his arms and lay the long edge against the opponent's neck. If he does this to you, and you are standing with your right foot forward, you turn your sword up outside his left elbow and put the pommel against his neck. Should the opponent do this, however, and tries to throw you over, you raise the sword forcefully and direct it over both his arms with the short edge, and enter into said guard.

[8] A lower onset as shown below

In this battle you do as follows: stand with your left foot forward and hold the sword with left and above your left knee and the tip pointing toward the ground. If he then stands before you with right foot forward and tries to thrust into your forward left foot, then step forward with the right foot and remove his attack by the cross of the sword and turn in the pommel into his face. If he tries to do the same to you, then pull him to the right with the cross on his right hand, and you will take his strength away. Then you strike with the pommel into his face. If he were about to do the same to you then parry the strike between both arms in the middle of the sword and thrust your point into his right side. Should he parry this with his forward point, then step back and hit your pommel into his head and back away from him.

[70] A throw with the sword

Step forward with your right leg, and hold the sword with the hilt with the right hand on the inside over your right leg, so that the pommel faces the opponent, and your left hand on the middle of the blade, with the point turned downward. And if he also steps forward with is right leg, holding his sword with the right hand on the hilt as well, and the left on the middle of the blade, standing in open and raised guard, then place your left foot with straight body behind his right foot, and simultaneously the sword falls down, and you reach down your pommel on the inside behind his knees, and you lift up with all your might, and this way you will throw the opponent on his back. If he wishes to throw you the same way, then quickly place your hilt on the right side in front of his neck, and place the middle of the sword on his right arm. Then you pull to you as hard as you can above, and press down below with your left hand, thus he is forced to fall with you.

[71] Another throwing technique

Having stepped forward with your left leg, holding your sword over your right leg, the left hand toward the point, and the right hand on the hilt, pommel pointing backward, and he, the opponent, has also stepped forward with his left leg, and you who want to obtain the victory, step forward in scales position with your right leg on the inside of your opponent's left, and then you turn in the pommel behind his knees on the outside, and with your right hand you are holding the hilt with, pull up as hard as you can, and with your left hand that you hold near the point of your sword, press down. If he is trying to throw you over with the same technique, then quickly move your pommel and the hilt under the left arm, and punch the pommel as hard as you can into his left armpit, thus he will remove his left hand above of the sword. Then, if you let go of the hilt with your right hand, and grab hold of his right, and push down forcefully you will avoid the fall.

[72] A throwing technique from the upper and lower weak points.

In this fight, you step forward with your left foot, hold the hilt with your right hand up high, and the left on the middle of the blade with the point toward the opponent, and from here you thrust the opponent in the face. If he tries to do the same to you, and you are standing with your right foot forward, holding the sword with your right hand on the hilt and the left on the middle of the blade, with the point toward the opponent, then raise your sword and parry the thrust. Then you step forward with your left foot and let go of the sword with your left hand, and move the sword with your right hand behind his both legs, and quickly then grab hold of the sword again with your left and pull to you, as you ram him with the visor, that way you will throw your opponent over. Furthermore, if your opponent does this to you, then throw your sword, and reach in with both arms over his shoulders and in under his armpits and pull to you then the opponent falls with you.

Then you let go of the hilt with your right hand and join it to your left for support, and strike him in the head with cross and pommel. If he tries to do this to you, and you are standing with your left foot forward, holding the sword with your right hand on the hilt on your left side, the left hand on the middle of the blade, and the pommel toward the opponent, then raise your sword and parry his strike on the blade between your both hands. Then you move your sword in under his left armpit, step forward, and push him forward. With this done, you drop your sword, and grab hold with your left hand on his left, and place your right hand on his neck by his left shoulder. If he has dropped his sword as well, and tries to grab hold of your right leg with his right hand, then push him away above, and hold his hand firmly, and this way you will throw him over your right leg on your right side.

If you want to emerge victorious, then do as follows in this fight: step forward with your left foot and hold the sword with both hands on the hilt over your head, with the pommel toward the opponent. From this position you step forward with your right foot and strike your opponent hard in the head. If he tries to strike you thus, while you are standing with your left foot forward, holding the sword with your right hand on the hilt and raised with the pommel toward the opponent, and the left on the middle of the blade, then parry his strike between both hands on the blade, drop the sword, continue forward with the left foot, and grab hold on the inside of his right leg with your left hand and lift up. If he has dropped his sword and grabbed hold around your thighs, and have them in his left armpit, then reach around his neck with your right arm over his shoulder around his neck and if you then press down above with full force, and simultaneously lift up below, you will throw him face first.

Then you take a step forward with your right foot, let go of the sword with your left hand, reach around his neck and grab hold of his chest and pull to you. If your opponent is holding you in the same manner, then drop your sword, and stoop down in to scales position, and grab hold of his left hand with your right, and pull to you as you grab hold of his left leg with your left hand, and if you rise up from this position you will throw your opponent over on your left side.

[86] Afterword

Behold, good gentlemen, here lies the man
who vilely lied about me, and
God knows what falsehoods he of late
accused me for in envy and hate
He betrayed me as he thought he might
bring to my reputation malice and spite.
He wanted to soil my good name
and slander me for evil shame
but God and the virtuous spirit of mine
defended have my life this time
God that gave me courage and power,
so that I was the victor upon this hour,
and won to day in a most honorable way,
For that I thank almighty God in all my days,
Forgive him for his sins O Lord above, you may
He has received his punishment today,
I am only content as here I stand,
defended have my honour with my hand
which is demanded of a man of my station,
who cherishes his name and his reputation.
