natura fieret laudabile carmen an arte , quaesitum est : ego nec studium sine divite vena nec rude quid prosit video ingenium : alterius sic altera poscit opem res et coniurat amice . qui studet optatam cursu contingere metam , multa tulit fecitque puer , sudavit et alsit , abstinuit venere et vino ;
it
has
been
made
a
question
,
whether
good
poetry
be
derived
from
nature
or
from
art
.
for
my
part
,
i
can
neither
conceive
what
study
can
do
without
a
rich
[
natural]
vein
,
nor
what
rude
genius
can
avail
of
itself
:
so
much
does
the
one
require
the
assistance
of
the
other
,
and
so
amicably
do
they
conspire
[
to
produce
the
same
effect]
.
