One of this writer's poems repeats the line "List, good Moon, where I learnt my loving." Another poem by him considers a memorial to an earlier poet, urging its viewer to say, "Youth and beauty pleased him best." It is unclear whether the line "'Twas in the blood" was meant with sly irony, in a panegyric celebrating the incestuous marriage of this poet's benefactress to her own brother, the king of Egypt. Another of his poems ends with two men exchanging a pipe and flute to signal that neither has lost their (*) singing contest. Gorgo and Praxinoa set out through crowded streets to observe the Adonis Festival in one of this poet's urban poems, a genre called mime. His first work in a certain genre describes the death of Daphnis, and he described the cyclops Polyphemus curing himself of love through song. This poet is referred to as Simichidas in a poem depicting a feast on his home island of Kos. For 10 points, identify this ancient Greek poet, who pioneered bucolic poetry in his Idylls.
