3rd Master — 1st Play (Fol 13v)
Section: Fiore: Dagger
Source Text and Drawing
Here begin the strong plays of the backhand, by which an infinite number have lost their lives. And I will follow the plays of my scholars, by the cover that I make with my right hand. This is an easy play to do, that in this way I want to throw this person backwards to the ground.
