Mario Teluccini's verse Erasto poem, composed in ottava rima, in nine cantos, was published in 1566. The text emerged just fourteen years after the emergence of the first version of the Erasto narrative in 1542; in that brief time, however, more than ten editions of the narrative had already circulated. The bookseller and writer Teluccini - based variously in Rome and at the court of Ferrara - was clearly attempting to capitalise on the Erasto's wild popularity with his poem; he was not immensely successful in this case, however, and the poem was not widely circulated (Wikeley (1983)).
Wikeley observes that Teluccini was also drawing on Ariosto's Orlando furioso for inspiration, especially in terms of tone and emotional expression (Wikeley, 1983, p. 11-12); however, the text is a 'clone' of the Erasto model, simply in 'courtly clothing', with only a few very minor deviations (p. 34). The elevation of the register and the move from prose to verse may reflect the tastes of Telucinni's presumed audience: he dedicated the text to Nicoló Bernardino Sanseverino, prince of Bisigniano and duke of San Marco.
