句法奇古。無綺麗雕飾之習。豈後世委靡者所可企及哉。

구법(句法)이 기고(奇高)하여 화려하게 꾸민 흔적이 없으니, 어찌 후세의 부화(浮華)한 자가 미칠 바이겠는가.

His composition method (kuppŏp) is marvelous and classical (kigo), and there is no trace of the habit of ornamental (kiryŏ) embellishment. How could dispirited writers of later generations hope to achieve this?
