Philip Sidney's Apology for Poetry cites the psalms of David with some inconsistency, setting them aside as divinely inspired by adducing them as evidence for poetry's legitimacy. One explanation of Sidney's ambivalence is a tradition of psalm commentary so far ignored by Sidney scholars. This tradition, originating with Athanasius and Basil but quite alive in Sidney's day, praises David in ways strikingly parallel to the Apology's arguments for "right poets." The psalms, says this tradition, move the reader better than the recitation of events or the giving of precepts; they inflame the soul by creating patterns for imitation; they appeal to neophytes and sages alike; and they hide medicine with sweetness. Sidney could have found the relevant patristic texts in the prefatory matter published with Matthew Parker's psalter (1567?); his own psalm translations suggest he knew this work.
