His dialogue on the _Eroici Furori_ is sustained at a high pitch of aspiring fervor.

Mystical in its attempt to adumbrate the soul's thirst for truth and beauty, it adopts the method of a running commentary upon poems, in the manner of a discursive and fantastic _Vita Nuova_.

In his Italian style, Bruno owed much to the fashion set by Aretino.

The study of Aretino's comedies is apparent in _Il Candelajo_.

The stringing together of words and ideas in triplets, balanced by a second set of words and ideas in antithetical triplets--this trick of rhetoric, which wearies a modern reader of his prose, seems to have been copied straight from Aretino.
