Re: Galileo's _Dialog..._

["Raymond A. Rogoway" <rogoway@SJM.INFI.NET>]

 From "Galileo Galilei: Dialogue....", translated by Stillman Drake, 2nd
revised Ed., pub. UCPress, 1967: In the "Notes" section at the back of
the book: "p.7. Sagredo, born at Venice in 1571, was a pupil of
Galileo's at Padua and perhaps his closest friend.... P. 7 Salviati,
was born at Florence in 1582, of an ancient and noble family of that
city. Little is known of his life. He is believed to have studied under
Galileo at Pdua, and from Galileo he received nomination to membership
in Lincean Academy.

And I have no more papers in a heap
And in the morning I can sleep
And stroll in those woods so dark and deep.
