Notes on Gian Francesco Fortunio's Regole grammaticali della volgar lingua, written in the margins of a copy of the edition of Ancona, 1516, with 80 leaves of manuscript bound in following the text. Fifty-six of these 80 leaves contain a commentary on Petrarch, including parts of his unpublished Sposizione. The last 21 leaves contain a manuscript of Morato's Rimario de tutte le cadentie di Dante, è Petrarca. Introductory note (opposite p. i of text), headed "Moretto Cittadine Mondano li letturi saluta," is dated M.D.XXI. In an accompanying envelope are two letters by Giacomo Manzoni, one addressed to Willard Fiske, the other to an anonymous recipient; and a manuscript copy of the introductory note preceding the text. In a separate larger envelope are photocopies of the contents of the smaller envelope.
