Usus est Thrasybulus non minus prudentia quam fortitudine; nam cedentes violari vetuit'cives enim civibus parcere aequum censebat'neque quisquam est vulneratus nisi qui prior impugnare voluit. Neminem iacentem veste spoliavit, nil attigit nisi arma quorum indigebat, quaeque ad victum pertinebant.
Thrasybulus showed no less judgment than courage; for he forbade injuring those who had surrendered (he thought it right for citizen to spare citizen), and no one was wounded who did not strike the first blow. He stripped no dead body of its clothing, touched nothing save the arms which he needed, and whatever could be made use of as food.
