Sub Articulo 127.0

I'm trying to create a table which has in one of the columns an eps 
graphics.  This if the latex:
\begin{figure}[h]
  \begin{center}
     \begin{tabular}{|c|c|p{10cm}|} \hline
        name & symbol & description \\
        \hline\hline
        state & \epsfig{file=state.eps,width=1cm} & A discrete state, as
used in Petri nets.  Each state can hold 0 or more tokens, indicating
whether or not the state is active.  Tokens can be atomic symbols, or can
be associated with some data type. \\
        \hline
     \end{tabular}
     \caption{}
     \label{quan}
  \end{center}
\end{figure}
There will be more rows once I get it working.  The problem is that the
text is aligned with the bottom of the graphics, the above example
produces a three row table with the following effect:
 | name  |symbol| description
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 |       |  xx  |
 |       | xxxx |
 |       |  xx  |
 | state |      | A discrete state, as used in Petri nets.  Each state
 |       |      | can hold 0 or ... etc
I'd like to get the text so it is aligned vertically with the figure,
hence:
 | name  |symbol| description
 --------------------------------------------------------------------
 | state |  xx  | A discrete state, as used in Petri nets, Each state
 |       | xxxx | can hold 0 or ... etc
 |       |  xx  |
 |       |      |
