Camusso (or Camus), who describes himself as a native of Cavour (Piemonte), attributes the texts in his four ‘volumes’ respectively to the 17th-century friar Girolamo Cantoni, to a certain Luigi Terzi, to the 16th-century Carthusian Giambattista Vimercato and to a certain Professor Rivard of Paris.
