he saw the only hope of its salvation.

Machiavelli is buried in the church of Santa Croce at Florence, beside
the tomb of Michael Angelo. His monument bears this inscription:

"Tanto nomini nullum par eulogium."

And though this praise is doubtless exaggerated, he is a son of whom his
country may be justly proud.

[*] Villari, _Niccolo Machiavelli e i suoi tempi_, 2d ed.
Milan, 1895-97, the best work on the subject. The most
complete bibliography of Machiavelli up to 1858 is to be
found in Mohl, _Gesch. u. Liter. der Staatswissenshaften_,
Erlangen, 1855, III., 521-91. See also _La Vita e gli
scritti di Niccolo Machiavelli nella loro Relazione col
Machiavellismo_, by O. Tommasini, Turin, 1883 (unfinished).

The best English translation of Machiavelli with which I am
acquainted is: The Historical, Political, and Diplomatic
writings of Niccolo Machiavelli, translated by Christian E.
Detmold. Osgood & Co., Boston, 1882, 4 vols. 8vo.
