Folio 12r 15 Listen to what is wrong, do not fight above on the left if you are righthanded;
16 and if you are left-handed, on the right you limp as well.
Folio 12v 27 Who strikes at you above, the Wrath stroke threatens him with the point.
28 If he becomes aware of it, take it away above without fear.
Folio 13r 29 Be strong against it; wind, thrust. If he sees that, take it down.
Folio 14v 30 Note this: strike, thrust, posture, soft or hard, 31 Instantly, and Before and After. Your War should not be in haste.
36 Four openings know, aim: so you hit certainly, 37 without any danger without regard for how he acts;

Folio 23v 57 Twice further on, step to the left and do not be slow.

Folio 27r 63 The Scalper is a danger to the face, 64 with its turn, very dangerous to the breast.

Folio 28r 66 Slice through the Crown, thus you will break it hard through.

76 Two outer intentions. The work after that begins.
79 Travel-after twofold. One hits, make with the Ancient Slice.
Folio 34v 80 Who wants to strike below, overrun him, and he will be shamed. 81 When it clashes above, then strengthen: this I truly do praise. 82 Do your work, or press hard twice.
Folio 35r 83 Learn to set aside, To skillfully hinder stroke and thrust. 84 Who thrusts at you, your point hits and counters his.
85 From both sides hit every time if you want to step.
Folio 35v 86 Learn the changing through from both sides, thrust with intent. 87 Whoever binds to you, changing through will find him indeed.
