taught or not; lest haply Epimetheus should trip us up and deceive
us in the argument; as he forgot us in the story; I prefer your
Prometheus to your Epimetheus; for of him I make use; whenever I am
busy about these questions; in Promethean care of my own life。 And
if you have no objection; as I said at first; I should like to have
your help in the enquiry。
Protagoras replied: Socrates; I am not of a base nature; and I am
the last man in the world to be envious。 I cannot but applaud your
energy and your conduct of an argument。 As I have often said; I admire
you above all men whom I know; and far above all men of your age;
and I believe that you will become very eminent in philosophy。 Let
us come back to the subject at some future time; at present we had
better turn to something else。
By all means; I said; if that is your wish; for I too ought long
since to have kept the engagement of which I spoke before; and only
tarried because I could not refuse the request of the noble Callias。
