CAPILUPI (Lælius), an Italian poet, brother to the former, made himself famous by some Centos of Virgil. The manner in which he applied Virgil's expressions to represent things which the poet never dreamt of, is admired. His Cento against women is very ingenious, but too satirical. The poems of Capilupi are inserted in the Deliciae Poetarum Italorum.
