The Shepherd's Calendar (1579) was the earliest important work of Spenser. It consists of twelve eclogues one for each month of the year; written in different metres, and modelled on the eclogues of Theocritus, Virgil and more modern Writers. Four of them deal with love, one is in praise of Elysa (Elizabeth), one, a lament for a 'mayden of greate blond', four deal with matters of religion or conduct one describes a singing match and one laments the contempt in which poetry is held.
