Yes, and also the implication that once you've done all those things (chosen for you usually by a journalist) you might just as well lie down and die. Not one more painting or whatever is worth seeing ...

"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
