This work, which I have not seen, is stated to contain some remarks on
Polo's Book. The author had intended to write a Commentary thereon, and had
collected books and copies of MSS. with this view, and read an article on
the subject before the Academy of Padua, but did not live to fulfil his
intention (d. 1797).
