I trattenimenti di Scipion Bargagli : dove da vaghe donne e da giouani huomini rappresentati sono honesti e diletteuoli givochi: narrate novelle; e cantate alcune amorose canzonette
A Sienese courtly conversation book by Scipione Bargagli, printed in Venice by Bernardo Giunti in 1587, collecting parlour games, novelle and love songs for gentlemen and gentlewomen readers.
