[Footnote 112: See the literary history of Cosmo and Lorenzo
of Medicis, in Tiraboschi, (tom. vi. P. i. l. i. c. 2,) who
bestows a due measure of praise on Alphonso of Arragon, king
of Naples, the dukes of Milan, Ferrara Urbino, &c. The
republic of Venice has deserved the least from the gratitude
of scholars.]
