Oh gosh, no. This is a translation.

The original is in a weird language- all of its own- which is basically Italian, but with lots of words that have been made over specially for the purpose from Greek and Latin. I gather that a modern Italian would find it a good deal harder than a modern English reader finds Shakespeare or even Chaucer.
