Stuck im aufstreichen ("Play in the sweeping-upon") is a brief German fencing manual from the early 16th century. The author of this treatise is unknown, though it has been variously attributed to Sigmund ain Ringeck (due to its presence in the MS Dresd.C.487, which was once erroneously attributed to Ringeck) and Andre Paurenfeyndt (who includes it in his treatment of long sword fencing, but who also borrows from other authors like Andre Lignitzer without attribution).
It consists of several plays of fencing with the two-handed sword, primarily from a low guard called iron gate or side guard, and it both mentions the Recital and shows familiarity with the principles of Liechtenauer's fencing. The iron gate is also discussed in an earlier treatise by Andres Juden, Hans Döbringer, Jobs von der Nissen, and Nicklass Preußen, but there is little technical overlap between the two works (though both treatises are included in MS E.1939.65.341).
The oldest known copies of this work are two manuscripts from the early 16th century, MS Dresd.C.487 (1504-19) and MS E.1939.65.341 (1508). It was also published by Freifechter Andre Paurenfeyndt in 1516 as the final section of the teachings on the two-handed sword in his treatise Ergrundung Ritterlicher Kunst der Fechterey ("Foundation of the Chivalric Art of Swordplay").[1] (Paurenfeyndt's text would be reprinted by Christian Egenolff four times between 1531 and 1558,[2] transcribed by Lienhart Sollinger into the Cod. Ⅰ.6.2º.2 in 1564,[3] and translated to Middle French and printed by Willem Vorsterman in 1538.[4])

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
[1] Here note how one shall fence with the long sword from the guard which is called the iron-gate [or] side-guard,[5] and how one shall execute the sweeps[6] from it. For there are many good plays which come from this, which many masters of the sword know nothing to speak about them.[7] |
[49r.1] Hie mörck vß den nebenhu°tten Daß ist auch den streÿchen zu° fechten ~~ |
[22v.1] Hie merck wie man fechtñ sol mit dem langen schwert / aus der huet die da haist die Eysenen pfort / vnd wie man die streichn daraus treiben sol / do vil guetter stuck aus kumen die da seltzam sein / do vil maister des schwertz nicht da von wissen zu sagen / |
||||||||
[2] Know that [there] is good fencing from the sweeps, although[8] they are not named in the Recital. Yet the plays from the Recital arise when one fences from them. And one shall execute the sweeps from the left side, because when they are from the right they are not as certain as from the left.[9] |
[49r.2] Wiß dz vß auß den streÿchen gütt vechten ist Wie wol sÿ in der zedel nicht benampt sin So kom~en doch die stuck vsß der zedel die man daruß fichtet vichtet Vñ die streÿchen soll man trÿbenn võ der lincken sÿtten wann võ der recht~ sind sÿ nitt also gewiß alß von der lincken ~~ :~ |
[22v.2] Itm~ wiß das man aus der eÿssen pfort die straich treibñ sol von der lincken seyttñ / wan von der rechtñ sin sy nit also gewiß |
||||||||
|
[3] An upsweep play[10] Item.[11] Execute the first play thusly:[12] when you lay in the side-guard to your left side and someone cleaves-in to you downward from above,[13] so firmly sweep onto his sword with the short edge. If he holds[14] strongly against [it] and is not too high with the hands, double-in[15] with the short edge (between him and his sword) on the left side to his neck.[16] |
Piece on raising When you are in the near guard on your left side and when someone shoots the high cut on your head from his left armpit, raise up from below his sword with the short edge. If he presses strongly against you and if he is not in high point with his hands, double between the man and his sword with the short edge towards his left ear. |
[49r.3] It~ wann du ligst In der nebenhu°t vff dine~ lincken sÿtten Vnnd ainer hawet vff dich võ oben nider So streÿch Von vnden vff vast in sin schwert mitt der kurczen schnid~ [49v.1] Helt er starck wider vñ ist nicht ze hoch mit den henden So duplier zwischen dem man vñ sine~ schwert ein mitt der kurczen schniden zuo sine~ lincken halß ~~~ :· |

[9r.4] VVom[!] Auffstreichen. Wann du ligst in der neben hut, auff deiner lincken seitten, und einer hawt auff dich einn Ober haw, von seiner rechten achseln, so streich von unden auff, fast in sein schwert, mit der kurtzen schneide, Helt er starck wider, und ist nit hoch mit den henden, so Duplier zwischen dem mann und seinem schwert in mitt der kurtzen schneid, zu seinem lincken ohr. |

[4] Another[10] Item.[11] When one sweeps-on to the sword as before,[17] if he holds strongly against, so strike-around quickly[18] with the thwart-cut to his left side, and double-in again[19] to his right side, between the man and the[20] sword, with the long edge on his[21] neck.[16] |
Another When you raise against his sword and if he presses strongly against you, strike the work on his left side and double again between his sword and strike towards his right ear with the long edge. |
[22v.4] Item Wen du auff straichst als vor an seinem schwert helt er dan starchkt wider / so schlag pald vmb mit der twer zu seiner lincken seÿttñ / vnd duplier zwischñ dem man vnd dem schwert ein / mit der langen schneid zu seiner rechtñ seÿttñ an den hals |

[5] Another[10] Item.[11] When you sweep underneath[22] onto his sword as before, and[23] if he is then soft upon the sword and low with the hands,[24] so cleave-in straight[25] above with the long edge to the opening at hand.[26] |
Another When you raise from low to high against his sword and if he is gentle with the said sword and with lower hands, strike with the long edge high towards his open target. |
[49v.2] It~ wann du vff streÿchst alß vor an sine~ schwert Ist er dann waich am schwert vñ nide~ mitt den henden So haw im zu° hand mitt der lange~ schniden oben zu° der blöß |

[6] Item. When you sweep onto his sword,[27] or[19] if he falls with the sword strongly onto yours, so drive quickly above his sword with the pommel, and remain thereupon with the hands[28] and allow your[29] point backwards to your left side,[30] and snap-off from the sword and strike[31] with the short side to the head.[32] |
[49v.3] Oder fölt er dir starck mitt dem schwert vff daß din So far im bald mitt dem knopf ub über sin schwert vñ bleÿb mitt den hende~ daruff dar uff vñ laß den ort hindersich zu° diner lincken sÿtten Vnnd schnapp In mitt der kurczen schniden zu° dem haüpt ~ ~~ :· |

[8] Another[10] Item.[11] When you sweep onto his sword, if he drives high up and winds, so strengthen with the long edge. If he then strikes-around again[23] with the thwart, so strike him into the left side with a step away. |
Another When you touch his sword and if he raises up, turns to strike with the long edge, and strikes again with the work; strike his left side with a step back. |

[9] Another[10] Item.[11] When you lay in the side-guard or[33] you execute the sweeps to the man, and if he then holds his sword athwart before him and is high with the arms and wishes to fall onto your sword, so sweep onto his sword below and slash him on the arm, or jab[34] him under his sword[35] on the[11] chest. |
Another When you are in the near guard or if you lead the cuts towards the man, if he pulls his sword crossed in front of himself and wants to fall above you with the arms raised high, strike below his sword to his chest. |

[13] Note an onset[45] from the setting-aside Item.[46] When you fence with someone and when you come closing in to him, so approach in the plow, and drive it swiftly with winding from one side to the other and such that your point always[23] stands still in front,[47] and from that you may execute the parries;[48] this is the “nearing”[49] and into that you may strengthen with the long edge, and from that execute all the afore-named plays. You may also set-aside cuts and thrusts, and break them simply with winding, and seek the openings with the point. |
Fight to move in on him. When you fight with someone and approach him and if you come in the cross and drive him out, calmly turning from one side to the other, let your tip remain in front of you so that you can make the defense. And note this next: strengthen after with the long edge and from that perform all of the aforementioned cases or pieces. You can also defend with the point and break him by striking and disengaging, seeking defense with the tip. |

[18] This is called the little-wheel[58] Item.[11] When you fence with another, so stretch your arm from you long and such that your thumb remains upon the sword above, and wind the sword[19] around with the point in front of you, just like a little-wheel; with that you may execute[56] from below swiftly to your left side and with that[59] go to the man, and from that you may change-through or bind-on to whichever side you wish, and when you have bound-upon, you may execute whatever play you wish that you think best,[60] as before.[28][61] |
Demonstration on the ring. When you engage with someone, stretch your hands out from you and turn the sword with the tip away from you. You can quickly raise from below and cross to cross on your left side. In going towards the man, you can also disengage to the side you want, or pick a piece that you like or serves you. |

[19] Item.[36] Break the thwart thusly[11] Item.[11] When you stand in the[22] guard from-the-roof and one cuts you with the thwart, simultaneously cleave-in to him with the wrath-cut, and bind on[62] his sword with strength, and seek the openings with the point;[63] and if he then[11] wishes to strike-around it to the other side[64] with the thwart, so come before with the thwart under his sword to his neck, or slice him with the long edge into the arm when he strikes-around.[65] |
Break the strong cut. When you are in high guard and someone strikes towards you with the work, if you strike inside with the soured[66] or anger cut[67] to him, and if he wants to strike around with the work, then put it in front of his neck after. So too can you perform all the pieces that are like the launches. |

[20] A break against the break[68] Item.[23] Note,[22] when you thwart, and one wishes to also come before ahead with the thwart under your sword on the neck, so fall-down[46] in-the-moment[22] with the long edge strongly onto his sword, thus is it broken. And[22] take the nearest opening which may appear to you. |
Another. When you defend and in defending from another you want to first dispatch below your sword, move into him with the long edge strongly on his sword, and he is broken. |

[21] Against the slice below into the arms[69] Item.[11] When you fence someone and if [you][70] cleave-in to him with the wrath-cut (or otherwise)[71] from above downward,[23] and he parries it and drives high with the hilt,[72] and you as well,[63] and [you] both[23] run-in with each other, so take the under-slice; and if he is then so prudent and wishes to take[73] the under-slice to you, under your hands into the arms, follow-after underneath his sword with the long edge and press down; thus you have broken it, and seek the openings. |
Anger cut. When you engage with someone and strike him with an anger cut or however from high to low and when he defends against you, reaching with his arms upwards, and when both of you move in on one another; if he then wants to block or break your tip from below the hands in between to the arms, therefore follow his sword, pulling with the long edge, and press strongly down. Thus you have broken him. |

Another. Or when you come with the arms high and another does too and runs in at you, if he wants with the pommel through your arms and below your hips to bash into your face or the chest; then move in with the pommel strongly below your hands. And in pulling towards yourself, strike with the sword on his head. |

[23] Item. When you have bound-upon with someone and if he changes-through with the pommel and falls with the half-sword, this breaks simply with the over-slice; and in the slice,[28] you may fall into the half sword and set-upon him. |
