by Sir Philip Sidney

The Sidney Psalms are a poetic rendering of the Psalms by Sir Philip Sidney and his sister, Mary Sidney Herbert, the Countess of Pembroke. Written in the late 16th century, they are considered a significant contribution to English Renaissance literature and a valuable example of the Sidney family's literary collaboration. The Psalms are characterized by their lyrical beauty, metrical complexity, and deep engagement with biblical themes.
