* You advance this pawn to prevent your adversary from putting three pawns in front, which he would have done by pushing only his king's pawn. x
f If you had retaken his pawn with your knight's pawn, he would have pushed his queen's pawn upon your bishop, and afterwards would have entered your game with a check of his rook, sustained by his queen's bishop ; and if you had taken this pawn with your king's pawn, he might have done the same; which would have given him a very good game, because one of his pawns being then passed (that is to say, a pawn that can be no more stopped but by pieces) will infallibly C03t a piece to hinder the making of a queen. |
