[Footnote 6: Foscolo, _ut sup_. p. 528.]

[Footnote 7: A late amiable man of wit, Mr. Stewart Rose, has given a prose abstract of Berni's _Orlando Innamorato_, with occasional versification; but it is hardly more than a dry outline, and was, indeed, intended only as an introduction to his version of the _Furioso_. A good idea, however, of one of the phases of Berni's humour may be obtained from the same gentleman's abridgment of the _Animali Parlanti_ of Casti, in which he has introduced a translation of the Tuscan's description of himself and of his way of life, out of his additions to Boiardo's poem. The verses in the prohibited edition of Berni's _Orlando_, in which he denounced the corruptions of the clergy, have been published, for the first time in this country, in the notes to the twentieth canto of Mr. Panizzi's Boiardo. They have all his peculiar wit, together with a _Lutheran_ earnestness; and shew him, as that critic observes, to have been "Protestant at his heart."

Since writing this note I have called to mind that a translation of Berni's account of himself is to be found in Mr. Rose's prose abstract of the _Innamorato._]
