The various old and new noble and knightly German forms and Disciplines of jousting or ”tilt”, as they call it nowadays. |

|||||||||
Title and dedication To the eternal memory of the late Roman Emperor Maximilian, I have here gathered these jousting or tilt games, and put them in order. The late emperor Maximilian himself devoted himself and exercized himself in them, and he even invented many of them as well. Therefore lest this honourable and sportly exercise of the nobility would to perish, I have here given them to posterity, especially for the eternal praise to those who still devote themselves and love it, which can be understood here, how to do that they have before their eyes, so that they be able to reconstruct each and everyone of them. |
[095v] Titulus, et dedicatio. Ad aeternam memoriam divi Maximiliani Romanorum Imperatoris, Caesaris, et Augusti, has Tyrociniorum seu ut nunc vocant Certaminum equesterum[!] species collegi, atque ex ordine locavi. His enim ipse D. Maximilianus studuit, easque exercuit, plerasque etiam invenit primus. Quare ne huiusmodi nobilitatis honesta, ludicraque exercitia pereant, ea immortalitati donavi: presertim ad aeternam laudem nobilitatis, et eorum omnium, quibus huiusmodi ludi adhuc cordi sunt, ut scilicet hinc, quid sequi debeant ad oculum habeant, et sibi singula ad imitationem proponere possint. |

Pan jousting, or in German "das pfannen rennen", is performed in this manner: the rider has no armour at all, on his chest he has a large shield with a steel grill, in which the lance is stuck, and must keep it there. He sits on the horse without any saddle. The horse itself is covered and blindfolded by a silk caparison, as is clearly displayed in this picture. |
The joust of war with steel pans is usually done in this manner: the man is wearing an old armour both in front and back, to which a large arret is attached, and into which the lance is put, as well as a large vamplate that covers half of the arm. On the chest is attached a large iron grill, which is the target area. Apart from that he is completely without armour, and without saddle, except for a small cushion. The horse is adorned and blindfolded by a silk caparison, as shown in the picture below. In this manner the joust of war with the steel pans is performed. |
