One Science only will one Genius fit;
So vast is Art, so narrow Human Wit;
Not only bounded to peculiar Arts,
But oft in those, confin'd to single Parts.

Nur konformigos temo sola unun ulon;
Jen tiom da arto, sed tiel streta menso homa;
Ne al la artoj specialaj nur limiĝas,
Sed ofte al apartaj partoj de ĉi tiuj.
