The Martyrs' Idyl, and Shorter Poems is a brilliant collection of the most beloved poems by American poet Louise Imogen Guiney. The titular poem illustrates the martyrdom of Saint Didymus and Saint Theodora at Alexandria in a dramatic manner. Saints Theodora and Didymus were Christian saints, and their legend is based on the word of Saint Ambrose. They were martyred in the reigns of co-ruling Roman Emperors Diocletian and Maximianus. This volume contains several short poems, including Romans in Dorset, the Vigil in Tyrone, Ode for a Master Mariner Ashore, Of Joan's Youth, and many more. Guiney was a member of various famous literary and social clubs and was the most prominent and visionary personal influence on Boston's circle of authors and artists.
