Extremely rare second edition (1st 1533) of the poetry of Martelli (1500-1527-1528), and first edition with the translation of the fourth book of Virgil. In 1548, an edition of the "Opere" of Martelli was published, also by B. Giunta, containing the same exact pages and text as our copy but with a different title, a praise of Martelli probably by Benedetto Varchi on verso of title and with an errata at colophon. Printed in italics; fleuron on title.
