Alphabets: Nu
By Thomas Page
I can’t seem to truly relax
Like sink deeply into an armchair and ponder tea cookies relaxed
Because of the access I have to everything I have to do
Like a white rabbit burdened with a pocket watch
Always late for something and early for nothing
The muscles in my neck
Tenses like game grabbed by the hunter
In a cacophony of hounds
Flooding a tunnel in the dirt.
Something always due…

‘An example of a technique from Thomas Page being brought back to life in free play during the middle of a bout with spadroons. This technique traps the opponent and takes advantage of his reaction Jay on the left uses blade pressure to bear Wyatt on the right out of the line. The two most typical options are for Wyatt to disengage and cut, or to do nothing. In this case Wyatt chooses the former and Jay times his attack to the wrist. Had he chosen to do nothing, the attack would become a glizade. Jay would simply cut him across the throat, having created an opening. Heres the original text:
"The Ambuscade.
This has its Name from bringing your Adversary under the certain Cut of your Edge, and disabling him at a Time when he not only thinks himself not in Danger, but imagines he has a fair Opportunity of cutting you down. The Method of this.
In the midst of loose play, when you have try'd your Adversary's Skill, ans seen where his principal Art lies; carefully avoiding to open your own Play, and lying cautiously upon the Defensive; of a sudden Advance briskly up to half Sword under Cover of an Outside Guard; and with your Fort upon his Foible looking steadily at his Eyes, bear him strongly and widely out of the Line, this brings him in to the certain Dilemma of being Cut either in the Throat or the Inside of the Wrest which he pleases; for by bearing off him so far and wide an Opening on the Inside, which exposes your whole Person so evidently to his Throw that he will certainly attempt it. When therefore you find him beginning to disengage, by moving only your Wrest disengage with him, and without stopping his Inside or even attempting it, meet the inside of his Wrest with the Edge of your Sword, as smartly as the spring of your Wrest will give you leave, and sawing at the same Time. But if he neglects to disengage attempt an Inside Throw, you must turn your Wrest upwards and inwards at the same Time that he is born out of the Line, and you at half Sword, and his Throat will be quite expos'd and open within the reach of your Sword, therefore with the same Spring if your Wrest as before, lodge your Edge in his Throat, and Retreating saw it." ‘

“Parliament; or Crepe Suzette”
By Thomas Page
There was a nation called Newlandia which existed in a time not unlike our own. It had majestic coasts sprinkled with fishing villages. It had glens bearding mountains and mountains cutting into the skies. The little country had no reason to be recorded in history because it kept to itself and its citizens did things civilized people do like eat as the sun set, talk about the…
