It depends on how rough you want it to look. Poliphilus, Celestia Antiqua, Old Claude are both good examples of rough-edged fonts of appropriate vintage from the Adobe Type Library. 

If you just want a typeface of appropriate classical origin, but not overly rough and aged, you could use Adobe Jenson, Centaur, Bembo, or Adobe Garamond. 

You can view samples online starting at http://www.adobe.com/type <http://www.adobe.com/type>
