Zaleucus, urbe Locrensium a se saluberrimis atque utilissimis legibus munita, cum filius eius adulterii crimine damnatus secundum ius ab ipso constitutum utroque oculo carere deberet ac tota civitas in honorem patris necessitatem poenae adulescentulo remitteret.
Zaleucus protected the city of Locri with very salutary and useful laws. His son was convicted on a charge of adultery and according to a law constituted by Zaleucus himself was due to lose both eyes. The whole community wished to spare the young man the necessity of punishment in honour of his father.
