Hudibras, in Three Parts, Written in the Time of the Late Wars

All the acquired learning imaginable is insufficient to compleat a poet, without a natural genius and propensity to so noble and sublime an Art.

Which made them, though it were in spight of nature and their stars, to write.

这使他们不顾天性和命运，执笔写作。
