Niccolò Machiavelli
it-mad
Philippe Verdelot
Nuova fiamma d’amor raccende
BaMn (XX ABABcC)
Fra Hilario Buoninsegni
note: Music of cc. ed. in SlimG, ii, no. 4; text ed. p. 441. There are later settings of this text by J. Gero (1543), V. Ruffo (1553), and A. Molino (1568). The poetic forms of lauda and cc. model are compatible if the three pairs of 7-syllable lines in Machiavelli’s poem are resolved into single endecasyllabic phrases.
