Note 118 — CARLO GOZZI.
John Addington Symonds translation
This word is in the Italian armata. The armata, to which Gozzi belonged, was properly an armament of mixed naval and military forces, and armata would naturally be translated "navy." He was attached to it, however, in the quality of soldier, and was eligible (as we shall afterwards see) for transfer into the land forces of the State in Lombardy. Thus he belonged to the Venetian army.
