| General note | "The Orlando inamorato, from which the following beautiful allegorical story is taken, is one of the most celebrated poems of Italy ... This singular production was originally written by Matteo Maria Boiardo ... It is, however, principally indebted for its high reputation to the labours of Francesco Berni ... who improved and polished the style, harmonized the versification, added many stanzas and moral reflections, and as the title expresses, recast it ..."--Preface, p. [iii]-vii. Signed: R.A. |
