The cross section of the process e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -} was measured in the spherical neutral detector experiment at the VEPP-2M collider in the energy region 400 < {radical}(s)< 1000 MeV. This measurement was based on about 12.4 x 10{sup 6} selected collinear events, which include 7.4 x 10{sup 6} e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} e{sup +}e{sup -}, 4.5 x 10{sup 6} e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}, and 0.5 x 10{sup 6} e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} {mu}{sup +}{mu}{sup -} selected events. The systematic uncertainty of cross section determination is 1.3%. The {rho}-meson parameters were determined as m{sub {rho}} = 774.9 {+-} 0.4 {+-} 0.5 MeV, {gamma}{sub {rho}} = 146.5 {+-} 0.8 {+-} 1.5 MeV, and {sigma}({rho} {yields} {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}) = 1220 {+-} 7 {+-} 16 nb and the parameters of the G-parity suppressed decay {omega} {yields} {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -} as {sigma}({omega} {yields} {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}) = 29.9 {+-} 1.4 {+-} 1.0 nb and {phi}{sub {rho}}{sub {omega}} = 113.5 {+-} 1.3 {+-} 1.7 deg.
