Epictetus was accustomed to tell one or two anecdotes which, although given without comment, show the narrowness and vulgarity of the man. Among his slaves was a certain worthless cobbler named Felicio; as the cobbler was quite useless, Epaphroditus sold him, and by some chance he was bought by some one of Caesar's household, and made Caesar's cobbler.
One was called Cerdo business , Trimalchio informed us, the other Lucrio luck and the third Felicio profit and, when all the rest had kissed a true likeness of Trimalchio, we were ashamed to pass it by. After they had all wished each other sound minds and good health, Trimalchio turned to Niceros.
Instantly Epaphroditus began to pay him the profoundest respect, and to address him in the most endearing terms, so that if any one asked what Epaphroditus was doing, the answer, as likely as not, would be, "He is holding an important consultation with Felicio."
