An introductory conversation between the two (1–14) sets the scene of their encounter, and is followed by a long speech by the goatherd (15–63) in which he describes a decorated bowl or kissubion (27–60) which he will give to Thyrsis if the latter will sing “The Sorrows of Daphnis” for him.	cache/grbs-1881.pdf	txt/grbs-1881.txt
