Excerpt from Alberto Nota: Ricerche Intorno la Vita e le Commedie, con Lettere Inedite, Ritratti ed Appendice
Nell'autunno del 1792, a Parigi, mentre per le vie della città infuriava' sanguigna ed eguagliatrice la ri voluzione, un grande di nostra gente sentiva coi primi freddi e tra gli stenti della fame avvicinarsi la morte. Pochi anni erano trascorsi dal giorno in cui, conchiu dendo le sue memorie autobiografiche, dichiarava, come per una lieta fine di commedia, di esser nato pacifico e di aver sempre conservato. Anche negli epi sodii dolorosi e oscuri della vita, il suo sangue freddo; ed ora gli acciacchi e la miseria avevano di sfatto la decorosa pinguedine più che settuagenaria, che si ammira nel ritratto del Cochin, mentre agli angoli della bocca gli si faceva amaro il sorriso nel ricordo del difficile cammino percorso e del grande lavoro compiuto.
