Note 66 — Chapter II
Reading edition
Magna Moralia, i. 1, and i. 34. Cf. Aristotle: Eth. Nich., v. 5.—“The Pythagoreans defined the just to be simply retaliation—and Rhadamanthus (in Æschylus) appears to assert that justice is this: ‘that the punishment will be equitable when a man suffers the same thing as he has done.’” (Thomas Taylor’s translation of The Works of Aristotle.)
