    Irregular

    A rhymed ode that doesn't have a fixed number of lines per stanza

    A poem that doesn't follow any set structure and is open to experimentation

    Explanation:

    Pindaric ode derives its name from the ancient Greek professional lyricist Pindar. He is regarded as the greatest ever lyrical poet. Pindaric odes consist of three parts;

    1: Strophe (two or more lines repeated as a unit)

    2: Antistrophe (which is metrically harmonious with strophe)

    3: Epode (concluding with a summary line in a different meter)

    .

    Irregular Odes as the name suggests are free from following any set rule of form (rhyme and structure) however they usually follow some element of Horatian or Pindaric odes in tone and subject.

    A third type called Horatian ode (after Roman poet Horace) features a regular stanza form. In contrast to Pindaric odes, Horatian odes are more thoughtful and intended for personal enjoyment.
