-
An Italian poet and antiquary; born in Friuli, 1574; died in Rome, 1629. He was distinguished for the accuracy of his taste in literature. The "Tears of Penitence", a series of tenderly conceived odes, was completed when he was sixteen years old. A later work is the "Penitential Psalms"; but the most solid memorial of his talent is a volume on "Ancient Marble Tablets".
