Original Text
金宗直詩云。詩書舊業戈舂黍。翰墨新功獺祭魚。按荀子曰。不道禮意。以詩書爲之。猶以戈舂黍也。古書云。李商隱爲文。多點檢閱書籍左右。鱗次號獺祭魚。余謂爲文而以編後用事爲能者。乃文人之病也。頃世。鄭士龍。類抄諸書。盛以大囊。每有製作必以自隨。故其詩多牽補斧鑿之痕。絶無平穩底氣象。盖亦坐此病耳

English Translation

Kim Chongjik’s poem reads, 詩書舊業戈舂黍翰墨新功獺祭魚 Studying the poetry and prose of the pastis like pounding millets with a dagger. New achievements in brush and ink are like a sacrifice of fish by otters.According to the Xunzi 荀子, “Not conveying the ritually proper message and using poetry and prose to do it is akin to using a dagger to pound millets.” Regarding Li Shangyi’s writing method, an ancient book commented that when composing Li laid out numerous reference books like how otters lay out their fish from left to right before consuming them. I said, “Writing that regards weaving together references (yongsa) as a talent, there lies the poet’s disease. Recently, Chŏng Saryong and his likes plagiarized all books and filled big pockets. Every time they write, they must borrow from elsewhere. That is why their poems show many axe and chisel marks from citing and patching up. There is certainly no calm (p’yŏngon) air (kisang) in their poems probably because they are also suffering from this disease.”
