5th Master — 7th Play (Fol 15r)
Section: Fiore: Dagger
Source Text and Drawing
In this way I will throw you to the ground, and this cannot fail me. And your dagger I will take, I’m not lying. If you were armoured, it would do some good, that with this your own [dagger] I will take your life. If we were armoured the art would not have failed. Well if one is unarmoured and is very quick, one could do the other plays and also this one.
