Pindaric verses are a type of ode, which is a poetic form that expresses strong emotion. Pindaric verses are named after the ancient Greek poet Pindar and are characterized by their use of strophe, antistrophe, and epode. They are composed of three sections, each with its own meter and rhyme scheme. The first two sections are usually longer than the third, and the third section often serves as a conclusion or summary of the poem.
