The correct answer is the following: option A. The way in which a Pindaric ode differs from a Horatian ode is that the Pindaric odes follow a three-part structure, while Horatian odes follow a regular pattern of usually two-line or four-line stanzas. An ode is a lyrical stanza written in praise of an event, person or thing. The original type of ode was the Pindaric one that consisted a three-part structure: the opening of the strophe, the mirroring stanza called the "antistrophe" and  the concluding epope which had a different meter and length than the other two parts. On the other side, the stanzas from an Horatian ode have the same meter and length and are commonly more informal than the Pindaric ones.
