Italian Poetry: Stories From the Italian Poets: With Lives of the Writer By Leigh Hunt. In Two Volumes. Vol. II.
Index | pg. 86 |Previous Page - Next PageThis satire was addressed ...This satire was addressed to Bembo. The cardinal is said to have asked
a visitor from Germany whether Brother Martin really believed what he
preached; and to have expressed the greatest astonishment when told
that he did. Cardinals were then what augurs were in the time of
Cicero--wondering that they did not burst out a-laughing in one another's
faces. This was bad; but inquisitors are a million times worse. By the
Nicoletto here mentioned by Ariosto in company with Luther, we are to
understand (according to the conjecture of Molini) a Paduan professor of
the name of Niccolo Vernia, who was accused of holding the Pantheistic
opinions of Averroes.]
[Footnote 42: Take a specimen of this leap-frog versification from the
prologue to the _Cassaria_:--
"Questa commedia, ch'oggi _recitatavi_
Sara, se nol sapete, e la _Cassaria_,
Ch'un altra volta, gia vent'anni _passano_,
Veder si fece sopra questi _pulpiti_,
Ed allora assai piacque a tutto il _popolo_,
Ma non ne riposto gia degno _premio_,
Che data in preda a gl'importuni ed _avidi_
Stampator fu," &c.
This through five comedies in five acts!]
[Footnote 43: In the verses entitled _Bacchi Statua_.]
