This is done, when being out of your Adversaries reach, or at a pretty
distance from him; you make your Approach or Advance towards him.


_To Retire or Retreat._

This is when you are within your Adversaries reach, that you get put of
it by stepping or Jumping backwards; which you must observe to do on a
strait Line.


_Measure._

This is only a distance between you and your Adversary, which must be
cautiously and exactly observed when he is Thrusting at you; so that you
may be without his measure or reach, and that taking the Advantage of
this, it may be so, that when you Thrust your Thrusts may be home.


_To break Measure._

Observe here, just as your Adversary is Thrusting at you, at his full
Elonge, he may come short of you, because you are, or escape out of his
Measure, or reach, and so break his Measure, of which I shall say
somewhat more hereafter.


_To Elonge._
