-“When Praxiteles the sculptor was in love with Phryne he took her for the model of his Cnidian Aphrodite, and upon the base of his statue of Love below the stage in the theatre inscribed these lines:
-Taking his own heart for the pattern, Praxiteles portrayed the love he felt, and gave me to Phryne as the price of myself; and so the love-spell I cast comes no longer of my own bow but of another's gaze.2
