Eclogue 7
text:
Eclogue 7 is a poem by the Latin poet Virgil, one of his book of ten pastoral poems known as the Eclogues. It is an amoebaean poem in which a herdsman Meliboeus recounts a contest between the shepherd Thyrsis and the goatherd Corydon. The poem is imitated from the sixth Idyll of Theocritus. J. B. Greenough thinks the scene is apparently laid in the pastoral region of North Italy. The date assigned to the poem is 38 BC. In the chiastic structure of the Eclogues, Eclogue 7 is paired with Eclogue 3
