than he. In treatise on the pastine
recently published by him he says:
'"The fundamental principle requiring
special attention In fencing is this:
Keep proper distance The proper ex-
ecution OF all movements depends on
It. 1t, for instance, the swcrdsman
places himself too near his opponent he
cannot parry well and will perhaps
neglect to parry thrust, and make q
lunge at the same time his opponent
does, SO, considering chance hit more
satisfactory than q well-executed parry,
and though he may think to obtain
better chance of hitting his opponent.
he forgets that he Offers to tho latter
exactly the same opportunity. The in
evitable result will be that neither sue
ceeds in touching with the point OF the
foil, but that they cut with their whole
blade. The same results will follow
when the Heterogeneous are clumaiiy
executed, when the point describes too
great an arc, and is carried outward
with more force than necessary. In or
der TO practice the art Of assault with
success it Is desirable that one OF the
opponents should be more experienced
than the other, so that the former may
be competent to correct the irregular
thrust of his opponent, and to point out
to him how he should have parried.
Both will profit by this mode Of prac-
ticing, and soon become good swords
men. II your opponent should inten-
.tionally offer weak point you ought
not to aim at it with full force at once:
&C. 7xtSA n %ni,a
you, however. clearly see the object of
his movements you may safely lunge
out, yet in such manner that you may
safely and quickly return to the posi-
ton OF guard. In calculating before
hand all the movements with which the
opponent may possibly meet your at
tack, You will be able to parry his re-
poste. The same holds good for parties.
But 1t always remains an unalterable
rule in assaults that the same parry
should not be used too frequently. be-
cause you would find 1t difficult to parry
the opponents simple or double feints,
when carried out In quick succession
during the attack You will then be suc-
cessful in hitting your opponent when
you first correctly judge the object of
the parry and then make a feint. A
good sWordsman should possess the fol-
lowing qualitiee:A keen aye to discover
the opponents intentions; correct 1ndg-
ment in selecting the best movements
for attack and defense; sensitive touch
to recognize by the slightest pressure
on your weapon the intended move
ment; quickness (shortest way in short
est tin1e); precision, exact execution OF
