Machiavelli gave the Prince to Lorenzo de' Medici who was the ruler of Florence.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Machiavelli's dedication of The Prince—with the heading “Niccolò Machiavelli to the Magnificent Lorenzo de' Medici”—is a letter to Lorenzo de' Medici who was the ruler of Florence.
Machiavelli's purpose in writing The Prince was twofold: (1) to show a ruler or would-be ruler how best to maintain a safe and prosperous state amid the political turmoil of early 16th Century Italy and (2) to redeem himself in the eyes of the ruler of Florence, Lorenzo di Piero de' Medici because Machiavelli wanted his position back in the politics.
I love that poem, what he means is nothing good can stay, it will fad or disappear, after a wile. hence why he said this
Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
and it means, when fall comes the leafs will fall, "maybe a flower but not more that an hour".
