It bore the magic brand Malvasia, under date of '57, and truly it was the drink of the gods, smooth as honey and sweet as a nut.

His biographer, Malvasia, relates that Guido's works were sometimes begun and finished in three hours.

The micrometers of Malvasia, and later of Auzout and Picard, are the development of this discovery.
