VERONESE, ANGELA,

Of Treviso. Under the Arcadian name of Aglaia Anassilide, she began at an early age to produce the aspirations of her muse. The Abé Bernardi and the Abé Viviani were struck by the talent of these little effusions, that they offered the young authoress valuable criticisms and instructions. So rapid was her improvement, that she received praise and encouragement from the celebrated Cesarotti. Her style is elegant, and beauty of thought, embellished by a fine imagination, is seen in all her poems.
