Manlius paraphrases Plutarch, who says the following about Medios of Larissa:
-
ἐκέλευεν οὖν θαρροῦντας ἅπτεσθαι καὶ δάκνειν ταῖς διαβολαῖς, διδάσκων ὅτι, κἂν θεραπεύσῃ τὸ ἕλκος ὁ δεδηγμένος, ἡ οὐλὴ μένει τῆς διαβολῆς.
-
He [Medios] urged people to boldly hold fast and sink in their teeth with their slanders, teaching that even if the bitten may heal the wound, the scar of the slanders remains. – Plut. Adulator, page 17r (c. 100 AD) [calumniare audacter, quia semper aliquid adhæret. Slander boldly, for something always sticks. – Johannes Jacobus Manlius, Locorum Communium Collectanea, page 393 (1562)]
