    The 'Sonetti e canzoni' are preceded by a Life of Petrarch attributed to Alessandro Vellutello (see Rossetti, Domenico. Petrarca, Giulio Celso e Boccaccio, illustrazione bibliologica …, 1828, p. 304-305 and Petrella, Giancarlo. Il Fondo Petrarchesco della Biblioteca Trivulziana, 2006, pp. 150-151).

    The Life of Laura, the 'Privilegio', the 'Testamento' and a sonnet on Petrarch's and Laura's ashes are taken from previous editions of Vellutello's commentary

    Petrarch's poems and commentary in italic type; the 'Testamento' in roman type.
