Δεύτερον δὲ πρόσταγμα μὴ ἀνδροφονεῖν. ἀγελαστικὸν γὰρ καὶ σύννομον ζῷον τὸ ἡμερώτατον ἄνθρωπον ἡ φύσις γεννήσασα πρὸς ὁμόνοιαν καὶ κοινωνίαν ἐκάλεσε. λόγον δοῦσα συναγωγὸν εἰς ἁρμονίαν καὶ κρᾶσιν ἠθῶν. ὁ δὴ κτείνων τινὰ μὴ ἀγνοείτω νόμους φύσεως καὶ θεσμοὺς ἀνατρέπων καλῶς καὶ συμφερόντως ἅπασι γραφέντας.
