Описание: Johannes Lecküchner:
[504] Learn to grab the elbow.
Push to the left strike to the right at the bag.

Here the master speaks about an element which is to be performed for amusement. If you want to do it, do it this way: if you bind to him at his left side, “simultaneously” strike around to his right side. And as you strike go behind to his elbow, and hit it firmly from you towards his right side. And “simultaneously” as he gives you his back, strike behind at his hip. Or, if he has shifted a bag onto his arse, strike at it.


[505] Go over with the left
Simultaneously take notice
Turn the back against the stomach
Thrust skillfully through both legs

You should understand it this way: as you come together in the Zufechten to his left side, strike at his right side, and “simultaneously” turn your left side to his right side. Then, go with your left arm outside over his Messer, and turn your back against him. “Simultaneously” fall with your left [hand] in the middle of your Messer and thrust at him through both your legs. And hold yourself well with the back at him, so that he cannot pull his Messer out of the arms, and lean down forwards, and thrust at his stomach, and frequently withdraw the point again to your left hand, so that he cannot grab you from behind with the point of your Messer. And thrust one or four times skillfully at his stomach or at the private parts. And it is a ridiculous element to perform during a swordsmanship competition.
