Pindaric ode see ode (p. 536) / Because of its architectonic possibilities (the elaborate rules, formality and decorum) one would expect the 18th c. poets to be attracted to he ode form, and indeed that period produced many distinguished examples. Lady Winchilsea (1661-1720) wrote a Pindaric poem on The Spleen, […] Pope […] [used] the Pindaric manner in Ode for Music on St Cecilia‘s Day […] Collins […] Ode to Fear, Ode to Mercy, Ode on the Poetical Character, Ode to Liberty […] Gray […] The Bard (1757) and The Progress of Poesy (1754). (p. 489) (English)
