Paucis addo, tergô et capite etiam antiquissimis Romae temporibus punitos fuisse, Legis Duilliae violatores, uti diximus supra, ubi de hac lege. Hodieque et fustibus virgisque et cauteriis obnoxium est. A tergo vero, Parthi Persaeque olim, iaculari aversique sequentes hostes, perinde ac adversi, laedere consuevêre: qui mos Moscis, Turcis, Tartarisque etiamnum frequens est, Zuingerus, Theatr. Vitae Hum. Eôdem gestu Veteres olim pyras, in quibus cadavera comburebantur, face admotâ accendisse, retro quoque vidimus. Porro post Terga revinctis manibus in triumpho olim captivi Duces trahebantur. Quem ritum indigitat Seneca, Troadibus, Actu 1. v. 153.
Non assuetas ad sceptra manus
