95r c notes

  • [^3]: this seems like it should be "both" instead of "other," but the latin is singular
  • [^4]: from 'prosilior', which is deponent, which makes the meaning active.

95r e notes

  • [^8]: error? "his" and "of the opponent"
  • [^9]: 5-8: There is a clause missing in the original, and the Latin translator's rendering of what is left becomes close to nonsensical at this point.
  • [^10]: This macron is incredibly odd in appearance; however, this reading is supported in the Vienna.
  • parallel construction, alternate endings, present in german
  • no mention of hand or sword heights here (unlike many others nearby), sword is mentioned in the German.
  • There's a significant clause that was omitted from this copy of the German but is present in other texts (Hans von Speyer and Joachim Meyer, per Falko Fritz). The omission is also in the Augsburg MS, probably the copyist skipping words between to repetitions of the same word pair, though other errors suggest PHM was working from a copy of Augsburg. Complete German text follows:
    • Aber ein annder Ringenn,
    wenn er dir ein lauft im schwert so las dein schwert falln, vnnd verker dein Rechte handt, vnnd begreif damit sein Rechte auswendig, vnnd mit der linckenn fas in bey dem Rechten Elnbogẽ, vnnd spring mit dem linckenn fus fur seinenn Rechtenn, vnnd stos mit der Rechtenn hand seinen Rechtenn Arm vber deinen linckenn, vnd heb in damit vbersich, also ist er verrigelt, vnnd magst im also denn Arm prechenn, aber fur dich vber das lincke pain werffenn.
  • "When one runs at you with the sword, then let your sword drop and invert your right hand; use that to grasp his right from the outside, and grip his right elbow with your left. Leap with the left foot in front of his right ** and use your right hand to push his right arm ** over your left, and left up with that. Thus he is blocked, and you can break his arm or throw him over your left leg."
  • this is the only time anteposueris appears; usually it's prae
  • German mentions jumping or leaping; we would expect prosilias here, but it's absent.
