Tarentinus Archytas, dum se Pythagorae praeceptis Metaponti penitus inmergit, magno labore longoque tempore solidum opus doctrinae conplexus, postquam in patriam reuertit ac rura sua reuisere coepit, animaduertit neglegentia uilici corrupta et perdita intuensque male meritum 'sumpsissem' inquit 'a te supplicium, nisi tibi iratus essem': maluit enim inpunitum dimittere quam propter iram iusto grauius punire.
