This translation first published in 1874. According to Wikipedia: ’Pindar (c. 522–443 BC), was an Ancient Greek lyric poet from Thebes. Of the canonical nine lyric poets of ancient Greece, his work is the best preserved. Quintilian wrote, ’Of the nine lyric poets, Pindar is by far the greatest, in virtue of his inspired magnificence, the beauty of his thoughts and figures, the rich exuberance of his language and matter, and his rolling flood of eloquence, characteristics which, as Horace rightly held, make him inimitable.’ His poems however can also seem difficult and even peculiar… his style still challenges the casual reader and he continues to be a much admired though largely unread poet.’
