Dear Tomoko,
search for the song title in combination with the composer nam Vincenzo Ferro.
This should lead you even (if I remember well) to an internet-publication of
the vocal model.

Dear collective wisdom,
Could anyone tell me if the song and lyrics of "Vel Puo Giurar
Amor" survives in other sources?
The piece I recently found in Vincenzo Glilei's Intavolature di Lauto,
pp.13-14,
is so beautiful that I would love to know the original song..
Tomoko:
The collection was first published in 1551. The 1597 basso partbook in the
British Library is from the fifth reprint of it! Apparently someone else
enjoyed the music as well.
See entry 1551-10 in this (as yet incomplete) index:

Dear Joachim
Thank you for prompt reply, great help to find a source and lyrics!
A basso part book containing the song survives
but other two parts (cantus, tenor) does not seem to .

Dear Tomoko,
The song you are looking for, "Vel puo giurar" by Vicenzo Ferro, is
complete in the volume "Willaert, Adrian: Musica Libro Primo a Tre
Voci" in the Munich archive.
The book contains madrigals by various composers, not just Willaert.
