Pindar's Olympian 1, 1 - 7 and its Relation to Bacchylides 3, 85 - 87

Résumé:Scholars generally assume that Olympian 1, 1 - 7 and Bacchylides 3, 85 - 87 contain priamels. I argue that these passages do not contain priamels.

At Bacchylides 3, 85 - 87, Bacchylides caps Olympian 1, 1 - 7, while making the argument with Hieron, the patron of both Olympian 1 and Bacchylides 3, that Bacchylides is a better poet than Pindar.
