    In the second edition (1568) of his Vite added to his Vite of Brunelleschi and of II Cecea descriptions of the machinery used in the Annuncia tion play in San Felice and the Ascension play in Santa Maria del Carmine. Brunelleschi is in some ways Vasari's excuse to talk about the Annunciation machinery. Vasari begins this section: "It is also said that the Paradise machinery in San Felice in Piazza was invented by Filippo", and the description concludes with the words: "This machinery, and many other things, were invented by Filippo, al though others state that they were invented a long time before. What ever the truth is, it has been useful to speak of it since it has quite fallen from use". (English)
