Thomasina Ross translation

The commentary on the Lusiad is published separately. It is entitled, Lusiadas de Luis de Camoens, &c. commentadas por Manuel de Faria y Sousa. Madr. 1639, 4 parts, in 2 folio volumes. The commentary on the miscellaneous poems of Camoens is entitled: Rimas varias de Luis de Camoens, &c. commentadas por Man. de Faria y Sousa. Lisb. 1685, in 7 small folio volumes. The latter, therefore, was not printed until thirty-six years after the death of Faria e Sousa.
