The Civilisation of the Renaissance in Italy

Note 105 — Chapter V · THE GREATER DYNASTIES.

S. G. C. (Samuel George Chetwynd) Middlemore translation

In the Deliciæ Poet. Italorum (1608), ii. pp. 455 sqq.: ad Alfonsum ducem Calabriæ. (Yet I do not believe that the above remark fairly applies to this poem, which clearly expresses the joys which Alfonso has with Drusula, and describes the sensations of the happy lover, who in his transports thinks that the gods themselves must envy him.—L.G.).
