The Sidney or Sidneian Psalms are a 16th-century paraphrase of the Psalms in English verse, the work of Philip and Mary Sidney, aristocratic siblings who were influential Elizabethan poets.

International Protestantism’s great English hope was felled by a bullet to the thigh during a battle in a water-logged marsh outside Zutphen, a Dutch city, on September 22nd, 1586. Philip Sidney—soldier, parliamentarian, courtier, and poet—died 25 days later from gangrene. “Come sleep, O sleep, the certain knot of peace,” Sidney wrote in his sonnet sequence Astrophel and Stella, written the decade of his death. “The baiting place of wit, the balm of woe, /The poor man’s wealth, the prisoner’s release,” and unto where his soul was sent in that final sleep.
Read today largely by specialists, Sidney is remembered more for his writing than his politics; a versifier “Poetically accomplished and formally innovative, with a vivid personal style,” as Jay Hopler and Kimberly Johnson claim in Before the Door of God: An Anthology of Devotional Poetry, an understatement for one of the most immaculate lyricists of the sixteenth century. Only 31 years old when he died, Sidney was irresistibly charismatic to many of his contemporaries, a man deserving of the throne, who in his portrait appears lean, handsome, and athletic, with auburn hair and russet eyes, a muscular def
