Source Text and Drawing

Another disarm is done like this, when one is crossed at the constrained [plays], the scholar puts his right hand under his [sword]…. And grabs that of the player about at the middle, or well up [the blade]. And immediately lets his [sword] go to the ground. And with his left hand he grabs the player’s sword under the pommel and gives it a round turn to the left-hand side, and immediately the player will have lost his sword.
