Excerpt from L'Assedio di Firenze: Poema in Ottava Rima
Nocque al poema del Rosco lo stile disadorno in cui fu scritto. L' indole degli Italiani che in qualunque opera d'arte non si appaga dcl l'importanza del contenuto, ma vi richiede anche la bella forma, e che produsse quei maravigliosi capolavori che tutti sanno, trasmodo talvolta nel l'eccesso contrario, tanto da trascurare l'impor tanza del contenuto in grazia della vaghezza della forma, e persino da preferire questa a quella.
