42 I desire, nevertheless, in imitation of Cebes,Reputed author of the Tabula, a description of an maginary allegorical painting representing human life. to paint you a picture of this career that we have discussed, so that you may look at it and determine. whether you should enter it. I should gladly have requisitioned an Apelles, or Parrhasius, or Aetion, or Euphranor to paint it, but since it is impossible nowadays to find anyone so excellent and so thoroughly master of his craft, I shall show you the picture as best I can in unembellished prose.
