Later he retired to Padua and a life of letters. He was made a cardinal in 1539. The poems in this volume come from all periods of his life and reflect both his erudition and his wide-ranging friendships. This verse edition is the first time they have been translated into English. This volume also includes the prose dialogue "Etna," an account of Bembo's ascent of Mt. Etna in Sicily during his student days, translated by Betty Radice.
