This is a terrible title though. "Da Vinci" means "of Vinci", it's not his name. Nobody calls Leonardo simply "Da Vinci". You call him Leonardo or Leonardo Da Vinci. The book should be called The Leonardo Code.

Green wind from the green-gold branches, what is the song you bring?
What are all songs for me, now, who no more care to sing?
Deep in the heart of Summer, sweet is life to me still,
But my heart is a lonely hunter that hunts on a lonely hill.

Honestly I have no mouth and must scream has such a good title, but is pretty underwhelming. The premise is completely harrowing, but its written like some random person is torturing him, not a super-intelligent AI.
