Revision as of 18:55, 5 April 2022

This is the complete transcribed text of the Lew gloss as present in Paulus Hector Mair's manuscript (Dresden) copy. These are transcluded from the main User:Kendra Brown/Latin Lew pages, which also have translations and notes and have the German Zettel verses inserted into the gloss sequence.

This page mostly uses Kendra and Rebecca's "Sandbox" format, where each unit of text is broken onto separate numbered lines by phrases.

Brevis Habituum Ensis longioris expositio

  1. Prima omnium cura sit ut colas deum et ames,
  2. muliebrem sexum honores,
  3. et eo modo gloria tua augebitur:
  4. eo discas,
  5. quae te deceant,
  6. in bello et ubique virtute et robore virium utere,
  7. ita ut fortitudo tua omnibus probetur.

Brief statement of the character of the longer sword

  1. First, you should undertake in all things that you worship and love God,
  2. you should honor the feminine sex,
  3. and your fame will be increased by this means:
  4. therefore, you should learn,
  5. any of these things would be fitting,
  6. use the force and strength of oaks everywhere and in (beautiful) war,
  7. thus that your fortitude is approved by all.

  1. Prima admonitio,
  2. primum operam dabis,
  3. ut Ictus,
  4. qui mox describentur,
  5. artificiose ferire possis more Athletico,
  6. si fortem gladiatorem te exhibere volveris.
  7. Cum pedem sinistrum praefixeris,
  8. atque de latere dextro ferias,
  9. iam deceptus,
  10. et ictus est falsus, [^1]
  11. nam dextrum latus non sequetur,
  12. et ictus brevior,
  13. quam par est,
  14. apparebit,
  15. neque vero ad dextrum latus rite potest exerceri.
     
  16. Sin autem dextrum praeposueris,
  17. et de latere sinistro ferias,
  18. nec sinistro fueris subsequutus,
  19. tum rursus falleris. [^2]
  20. ea propter curabis,
  21. ut,
  22. si de latere dextro ictum regis,
  23. statim subsequaris pede itidem dextro in ipso ictu.
  24. Idem facies,
  25. si de sinistro ferias,
  26. et ea ratione commodissime corpus adcommodabis,
  27. ictusque porrecti et more gladiatorio formabuntur.
  1. First reminder,
  2. first you will dedicate the work,
  3. so that the Strike,
  4. which will soon be described,
  5. you will be able to strike skillfully in the custom of Athletics,
  6. if you would have wished to produce a strong gladiator.
  7. When you set the left foot in front,
  8. and strike to[^3] the right side,
  9. now he/it has been deceived,
  10. and the strike is false,
  11. on the other hand, if he/it will not follow on the right side
  12. and it will be clear that a short blow,
  13. however suitable it is,
  14. [moved to 12]
  15. truly cannot be employed properly toward the right side.
     
  16. but if, however, you should set the right before,
  17. and strike from the left side,
  18. and do not follow immediately with the left,
  19. then you are deceived in turn.
  20. Take care, on account of these things,
  21. so that,
  22. if you direct the blow from the right side,
  23. you would immediately follow with the right foot likewise in the same thrust.
  24. You will do the same,
  25. if you strike from the left,
  26. and you will adapt the body at the right moment to this method,
  27. and the extended strikes are shaped by gladiatorial custom.

  1. Si feriundo ad hostem accesseris,
  2. ense regendo ne cesses,
  3. eius ictum expectans sed semper exerceas.
  4. Nam omnes Athletae,
  5. qui id faciunt[^1],
  6. Athletica non gaudeant,
  7. quoniam saepissimé laeduntur.
  1. If you approached toward the enemy having been struck,
  2. do not hold back while directing the sword,
  3. however, if you always make a habit of awaiting/looking out for his strike.
  4. For all Athletes,
  5. who do this,
  6. do not rejoice in athleticness,
  7. because they are often struck.


  • [^1] This is a general, non-specific work around for 'versetzen'.

  2. and you will wish to use whatever skills,

  4. and take care to strike his head,
  5. and you will compel the adversary by this method,
  6. in order that he defend himself,
  7. and neither will he be able/it be possible to take up change-abouts at any time.
  8. Your sword's point (in fact) will prevent his advance.
  9. But if, however, with the stronger part,
  10. which is the part from the cross[,] the enemy’s sword continuously contacts your sword toward the middle,
  11. you wound his left shoulder/arm
  12. and thence you withdraw,
  13. before he becomes aware of it

Ictus eius habitus[^5],
qui ex ira appellationem assumpsit.
Is ictus suo mucrone omnes Ictus superos avertit, quantumvis sit facilimus, & maxime agrestis: eum hoc modo exerceas. Si adversarius supernè caput tuum ex latere suo dextro adpetat, tu vicissim idem facito, remota omni defensione[^3], gladiu[m] ipsius contingens firmiter, atq[ue] subito mucronem ensis tui in faciem eius vel pectus convertito, Verum si is id observarit, nec non ensis parte firmiori impetum exceperit[^4], tum ensem ab ipsius ense surrigas, eo supernè remoto, versus aliud ensis latus rursum converso, caput ferias.
A strike of this skill,
which takes up the name from "ire"
This strike turns aside all upper strikes using its point, even though it is the easiest and most uncultivated. Employ it in this way: If the adversary approaches your head above from his right side, you do the same thing in turn, firmly touching his sword (since/when every defensive position has been set aside), and suddenly turn the point of your sword over to his face or chest. Truly if he notices this, and also if he would catch/intercept the attack using the stouter part of the sword, then you lift your sword up from his sword, it [your sword] having been intercepted above, turn back again toward the other side of the sword, you strike the head.

  2. and he holds the sword strongly,
  3. and you wish to use the skill[^1] the way it is mentioned above,
  4. and you resist strongly in turn,
  5. thence if you would lift the arm toward your right side,
  6. you would twist the short edge of the sword away from him,
  7. and thrust at him above in the face,
  8. but if the adversary observes this,
  9. (the sword having been lifted) he catches/intercepts the attack),
  10. you would remain in the wrapping,
  11. and direct the point to the opponent below.

  1. Also, when the adversary touches your sword from the form of thrust or strike,
  2. in the first conflict,
  3. do not immediately practice repeated strikes,
  4. but hasten slowly,
  5. and you will take the greatest care,
  6. in order to observe earlier whether he holds the sword gently or strongly in the striking together of swords,
  7. but if you catch this,
  8. you are able to use the wrapping,
  9. and within the timeframe of the repeated strikes (which is the aspect of the art that we Germans call beautiful/warfare) you attack by closely seeking the opening.

  14. the short edge is in the same way placed below with respect to the hilt of the adversary,

  1. REGARDING THE WIDE-OPEN WINDOW
  2. It was called to mind[^3] above,
  3. a method by which it is essential to compose yourself athletically, the sword having been directed in the four aforesaid guards.
  4. Now therefore you would understand that posture,
  5. from which we start/originate,
  6. to be the guard,
  7. in which you can most safely stand,
  8. moreover the guard itself is the point[^4],
  9. of the long edge,
  10. here namely is the best part of the sword,
  11. and the noblest:
  12. if any therefore practice properly out of the same Athletics[^5],

  1. On the other hand, you will form the wide open window in this way.
  2. If, in view of the adversary, you moved forward, the sword being properly directed,
  3. employing whatever stroke,
  4. whether from above or from below,
  5. then immediately after the long point, the lower arm having been extended equally from the strike,
  6. you strike against the face or the chest of the enemy,
  7. and, in this deep thrust, you press him hard in the attack up to having defended himself,
  8. or he will strike your sword in the first approach,
  9. therefore, if he would do this,
  10. the long edge of your sword would stick fiercely to his sword ;[^7]
  11. and in the meantime, you would diligently observe with the strong and unwearied mind,
  12. what gesture the adversary wants to practice,
  13. if the enemy withdraws from your sword,
  14. with your sword following,
  15. seek his face or chest.
  16. But if in truth he attempts to strike your other side from the first flashing approach,
  17. you would strongly cut the arm of the adversary in turn,
  18. and work diligently against his head.
  19. Truly if the adversary neither withdraws from your sword,
  20. nor does he want to strike the other side,
  21. then use doubling or another from whatever gesture close to[^8] that which you perceive/feel him to hold his sword strongly or weakly.

  8. two above,

  10. The above ones are indeed called Ox,
  11. While belowly Plow on both sides.
  12. Truly out of the four aforesaid angles eight wrappings are formed,
  13. and you should observe them diligently,
  14. in order that from any wrapping you bring out in particular one strike,
  15. thrust,
  16. and slice.

  1. Iam vero percipies,

  6. de latere dextro consistas in Bovis habitu,
  7. et si is superné versus latus tuum sinistrum feriat,
  8. tum ob[ ]viam ictui eius,

  14. Sin autem adversarius eum impetum removere conetur de latere sinistro,
  15. ensis tuus ensi eius adiunctus remaneat[^7],
  16. atque rursum ensem inde torqueas in latus tuum dextrum in habitum Bovis,

  1. Now truly perceive,
  2. in which manner you can form eight wrappings out of the four angles,
  3. The first [angle] has two wrappings,
  4. you should therefore practice these using this following method,
  5. When you go together with the enemy, your sword being directed for Athletics,
  6. you should stand in the posture of Ox from the right side,
  7. and if HE strikes abovely against your left side,
  8. then in the path[^8] of his blow,
  9. you should twist the sword,
  10. so that you apply the short edge of your sword,
  11. to his blade in the posture of Ox,
  12. and thence don't hesitate to thrust at him in the face,
  13. and THIS gesture is called wrapping.
  14. But if, however, the adversary tries to shift that forward attack from[^9] the left side,
  15. your sword should remain bound to his sword,
  16. and you should thence twist the sword backwards on your right side in the posture of Ox,
  17. such that the long edge,
  18. touches his sword,
  19. and dig above and backwards at the face of the opponent,
  20. and IT is a posture called Angle from the right side[,] the two wrappings having been employed[^11] on the sword of the opponent.

  1. Secundam ensis superiniectionem[^12] hac ratione exerceto additis duabus alijs.

  4. et si hostis superne contra latus dextrum tuum feriat,
  5. tum aciem ensis tui longam,

  1. Practice the second method to cast the sword over, two others having been added.
  2. If you stepped forward into view of the adversary,
  3. you stand in the Ox from the left side:
  4. and if the opponent strikes above against your right side,
  5. then you apply[^13] the long edge of your sword,
  6. to his sword,
  7. and thrust above at his face,

  9. but if, however, he drives that thrust back toward his right side,
  10. you stay by adhering to his sword,
  11. thence also you twist the sword back on the left side into the posture of the Ox,
  12. so that the short edge is applied to the sword of the adversary,
  13. and out of that form you thrust at the face of the enemy abovely,
  14. and THAT is the second method to cast over from the left side, the two wrappings having been used in turn on the sword of the enemy.

  1. It will have been observed to you above,
  2. four wrappings are likewise to be employed from the two lower forward angles,
  3. because the Plow is on both sides,
  4. in order that it is remembered on top of that,
  5. [that] every gesture of these [feminine - wrappings or forward angles] having been employed are formed from the strike from above.[^15]
  6. therefore, as often as is proper, whenever you want to make use of the class of wrappings,
  7. always be mindful of the strike, thrust, and cut,
  8. in order to make use those gestures as was said above.

  1. Igitur ex octo intorsionibus proveniunt viginti quattuor habitus tot enim octo ex sese pariunt.

  1. ↑ repellat is the equivalent of 'versetzt er'
  2. ↑ This is implied by line 11
  3. ↑ [1](rendering based on Logeion definition), supported by DMLBS and Lewis and Short-- L&S say it's from a Greek word for writhing
  4. ↑ 11-12, 13-14: phrases split by [an unnecessary] comma, potentially to avoid long lines?
  5. ↑ leap, jump, move suddenly/spasmodically, jerk, spurt...
  6. ↑ 16-17 order reversed for englishification
  7. ↑ There are a series of repeated verb stems in the Latin that are almost impossible to repeat in an English translation: incurrerit+transcurras = run in+run through; inieceris+reijcito = throw inward+throw backwards
  8. ↑ phrase about foot placement split by extra comma
  9. ↑ There are a series of directional doublings in this text (anterius+praeponas; in+inieceris; retorsum+reijcito).
  10. ↑ The abdomen below the ribs. He uses a different word for "loins" below, so this one couldn't be loins.
  11. ↑ The German, "und thu auch" can be read as "and you also" or as "and [you] do the same". The Latin translator has incorporated both options into his translation.
