Of the canonical nine lyric poets of ancient Greece, his work is 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 & figures, the rich exuberance of his language & matter, & his rolling flood of eloquence, characteristics which, as Horace rightly held, make him inimitable.
