Lacedaemonii libros Archilochi e civitate sua exportari iusserunt, quod eorum parum verecundam ac pudicam lectionem arbitrabantur: noluerunt enim ea liberorum suorum animos imbui, ne plus moribus noceret quam ingeniis prodesset.
The Lacedaemonians ordered that the works of Archilochus be removed from their community because they thought them immodest and immoral reading. They did not wish their childrens minds to be imbued with it, lest it do more harm to their character than good to their intelligence.
