I'm not so sure about the superlative horses meaning one should give up
poetry. I'm thinking that it means one has learned to live poetry. To
become such an aesthete that one gives up aestheticism altogether, if that
makes any sense. One recognizes only the good and can no longer break it
down into its parts.

Best,
Cecilia.
