Intabulation of a four-voice madrigal by Verdelot with a text by Machiavelli. The New Grove (Oxford Music Online) article on Verdelot by H. Colin Slim, revised by Stefano La Via (accessed 6/08/2019) indicates the first print of this work is in Del primo libro de Madrigali di Verdelotto (Venice: Zovan Antonio [Nicolini] et i fratelli da Sabio. Ad instantia de li Scotti et per Andrea Anticho, 1533. but RISM only lists several reprints from the 1540s. Further modern editions of the Verdelot madrigal in Bragard (1964), Cummings (2004), Hersh:
