Breve (Fol 24r)
System: Fiore: Longsword
Section: Fiore: Longsword: Guards
Source Text and Drawing
This is the short guard that wants a long sword. It is a malicious guard that does not have stability. It always moves and sees if it can enter with a thrust and with a pass against the companion. And this guard is more appropriate in armour than without armour. Short guard, stable.
