THE ART OF DEFENCE and PURSUIT, With the Small-Sword.
Described in a Dialogue between a SCHOLAR and a MASTER, of that ART.
GOOD morrow Sir, I am glad that I have once found you at home, for I have called several times for you, and till now, could never have the good Fortune to meet with you.
I am sorry Sir that you should have been at that trouble, but now, seing we have met, What Service have you to command me with?
Sir, I hear you profess the Art of Fencing, and the great love and defire I have for that noble Art, made me desirous to be acquainted, with you, that I might be instructed in it.
