Negro, Candido del

Anatomia del corpo umano. Cavata dalla prosa, ristretta, e spiegata in ottava rima. The poem on 'Anatomia' is complete: and is followed by three sonnets. At the end of the 'Anatomia' is a colophon: 'Terminando con universale applauso / Il Signore Candido del Negro La / Camerario del pio luogo, ed assumendola / Il Signore Ognibene Vatallo'. The latter appears to be the author of the sonnets.
