[1] '''A High Thrust against a Low Thrust with the Rappier'''
  
 +
It happens like this in this technique: hold your Rappier in your right hand in front of your forward leg in a low thrust position directed towards his groin. He then stands with his left foot opposite you and thrusts towards your face at the upper opening (as in illustration). Then drive up with your Rappier out of the low thrust position, fall over his Rappier and with that take away his thrust to your left side with your short edge. Then immediately step with your left leg in the triangle on your right side and strike to his forward leg.
 +
 +
If he strikes low towards you like this, then yank your left leg back and take it away with the long edge so that you avoid injury from him and can work against him once more.

Then immediately follow outward with your right leg and do an extended strike from above to his head.

You then stand opposite him with both feet together and hold your Rappier up high in the Zornhaw over your head (as in illustration). He thinks you will then strike him wrathfully from above, but step in with your right leg and wind with a Verborgnen Stich (concealed thrust) behind your head and forward from your right side to your left into his face with a Nachtruck (after-press).
 +
 +
If he has wound a thrust like this towards your face, then take it away with your short edge to your left side, immediately follow outward with your left leg and strike him with the same thrust to his right opening that you then see. With that step back away from him.
