1The Romans (as it was afterward declared) toke vengeance of the schoolmaster of the children of the Phaliscians, & they detected unto Pyrrhus his physician which would have betrayed him. These things are true in deed, but I may easily answer that the Romans had here a regard to two things. First that these (namely the schoolmaster & the Physician) had not in that which they did, a regard to justice, but were only stirred up thereunto by covetousness or hatred. Wherefore they seemed to have deserved not a reward but a punishment. Furthermore yt Romans had a wonderful great desire of glory, which they called valiantness of mind. And being stirred up with it, they thought that victory in a manner unworthy, which they got not by force, but after this sort, which seemed to be very cowardly. And it is possible, that they thought to win those against whom they warred, and rather by benefits, or at the lest way no less by benefits than by force.
