‘διὰ τί τὰς γυναῖκας οὔτ᾽ ἀλεῖν εἴων οὔτ᾽
ὀψοποιεῖν τὸ παλαιόν;’
ἢ τὰς συνθήκας διαμνημονεύοντες, ἃς ἐποιήσαντο πρὸς τοὺς Σαβίνους; ἐπεὶ γὰρ ἥρπασαν τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῶν εἶτα πολεμήσαντες διηλλάγησαν,
ἐν ταῖς ἄλλαις ὁμολογίαις καὶ τοῦτ᾽ ἐγράφη, μήτ᾽ ἀλεῖν ἀνδρὶ Ῥωμαίῳ γυναῖκα μήτε μαγειρεύειν.
Plutarch. Moralia. with an English Translation by. Frank Cole Babbitt. Cambridge, MA. Harvard University Press. London. William Heinemann Ltd. 1936. 4.
