What the (Virtue) Socrates?

Socrates enquiring with Meno, what might have been the first enquiry concerning the theory of knowledge, it started with a feverish endeavor to define virtue, and whether it is born naturally in the human or it is a kind of knowledge that can be taught, yet it had been concluded disastrously in this quote by Socrates.

“the result seems to be, that virtue is neither natural nor acquired, but an instinct given by God to the virtuous”
