greek myths

[helenmoira]

name of greek mythological lovers; a shepherd and a nymph

[yogasun]

I think it's Acis and Galatea

[Narolines]

I'd guess Acis & Galatea would be the pair in question, though pairings of nymphs & shepherds are not uncommon in Greek myth ("Nymphs & Shepherds Come Away....."); for instance, Paris (of the Trojan War) was brought up as a shepherd and formed a liaison with the nymph Oenone.
