Diploma a stampa con parti compilate manoscritte, cm. 58x43. Testo latino. Rilasciato post mortem a Bartolomeo Sestini (Pistoia 1792 - Parigi 1822), patriota e poeta. Acclamato poeta improvvisatore in tutta Italia, si serv? dei suoi viaggi per diffondere la Carboneria, specie in Sicilia, dove fu arrestato e condannato (1819). Liberato per intercessione del governo toscano, si recò in esilio in Francia. Oltre ad alcuni versi estemporanei raccolti dagli uditori, pubblicò i meditati Amori campestri (1814) e gli Idilli (1816), nonché una tragedia, Guido di Montfort (1821). La sua opera migliore è peraltro la novella romantica in ottave intitolata Pia de' Tolomei (1822). Piegature centrali, alcuni abili rinforzi al verso con carta Cina, nel punto di piega.
