Note 397 — Appendix I
Reading edition
It may have been a direct borrowing, for we know that Tasso was acquainted with the plays of Epicuro, whom he imitated in his Rinaldo (V. 25, &c.). The Mirzia is printed in 'I drammi pastorali di A. Marsi,' ed. I. Palmerini, Bologna, 1887-8. See also Pèrcopo in the Giornale, as cited. Carducci, 62. The authorship is a little doubtful. Creizenach, ii. 3651.
