Notes | Original t.p. reads: Paradoxes of defence, wherein is proved the trve grounds of fight to be in the short auncient weapons and that the short sword hath aduantage of the long sword or long rapier, and the weakenesse and imperfection of the rapier-fights displayed together with an admonition to the noble, ancient, victorious, valiant, and most braue nation of Englishmen, to beware of false teachers of defence, and how they forsake their owne naturall fights, with a briefe commendation of the noble science or exercising of armes. London, Printed for Edvvard Blount, 1599 S.T.C. no. 22554 |
