See Introd. p. 194. Correct there the second line of the quotation, Hor. I Ep. 16, 52, which should be, tu nihil admittes in te formidine poenae:tu’ is addressed to men in general, and therefore the second line speaks as generally as the first. Schrader appears to refer this topic to c. 7 § 12, καὶ δυοῖν ἀρχαῖν τὸ ἀπὸ τῆς μείζονος μεῖζον, for its authority; the topic of § 16, καὶ ἀρετὴ μὴ ἀρετῆς...τὸ μὲν γὰρ τέλος, τὸ δ᾽ οὐ τέλος, is equally applicable.
