These pastoral works feature rustic shepherds and goatherds who meet in idyllic settings to exchange songs and stories. The most famous idyll tells of Daphnis, a legendary cowherd who vowed eternal faithfulness to his first love. When the god Love sought revenge by inflicting him with desire for another, Daphnis chose death over breaking his vow, mourned by animals, nymphs, and gods alike in this founding work of pastoral poetry.
