53.7 The well-to-do citizens resented legislation of this type, and, banding together, they denounced him and pelted him, wishing to stone him to death. As he was being pursued, he rushed through the market-place; and he out-distanced almost all his pursuers, and gained refuge in the shrine of Athena of the Brazen House; only, as he turned around, Alcander, who was pursuing him, put out one of his eyes by a stroke of his staff. But when, later, Lycurgus received Alcander, who was handed over to him for punishment by vote of the people, he did not treat him ill nor blame him, but, by compelling him to live under the same roof with him, he brought it to pass that Alcander had only commendation for Lycurgus and for the manner of living which he had found there, and was altogether enamoured of this discipline. Lycurgus dedicated a memorial of his unhappy experience in the shrine of Athena of the Brazen House, and gave to her the added epithet of Optilletis; for the Dorians in this part of the world call the eyes optics (optilloi). Plutarch tells the story more fully in his Life of Lycurgus, chap. xi. (45 D-46 A); Cf. also Aelian, Varia Historia, xiii. 23, and Stobaeus, Florilegium, xix. 13.

53.8 Being asked why he had not made any use of written laws, he said, Because those who are trained and disciplined in the proper discipline can determine what will best serve the occasion. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Lycurgus, chap. xiii. (47 A).

53.9 At another time when some sought to know why he had ordained that the people should use only an axe in putting a roof on their houses, and make a door with a saw only and none of the other tools, he said, So that the citizens may be moderate in regard to all the things which they bring into the house, and may possess none of the things which are the cause of rivalry among other peoples. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Lycurgus, chap. xiii. (47 C), and Moralia, 189 E (3), supra.
