In schola Pythagorae.Docendi peritu

In schola Pythagorae.
Docendi peritus - ut scripsit Quintilianus - tradito sibi puero ingenium eius imprimis naturamque perspiciet. In parvis signum ingenii praecipuum est memoria.
Pythagorae, ut antiqui scriptores tradunt, in recipiendis instituendisque discipulis talis ratio fuit. Pythagoras adulescentium, qui ad eum venerant, ut discerent, mores naturasque conabatur pernoscere ex oris totiusque corporis habitu. Qui cum exploratus esset et idoneus videretur, in disciplinam statim recipiebatur. Ab eo tempore discipulus certum tempus tacere debebat.
Non omnes idem tempus tacuisse scimus. Alii aliud tempus tacuerunt, sed non minus quisque tacuit, quam biennium. Is autem, qui tacebat, quae dicebantur ab aliis, audiebat. Discipulo tacenti neque percontari, si parum intellegeret, neque commentari, quae audivisset, licuit. Ubi discipulus res diffiiciles didicit: tacere audireque - tum verba facere, quaerere, scribere ei potestas erat.

The school of Pythagoras.
taught expert - as he wrote Quintilianus - traditionally a child's ability to perceive its specific nature. Chief of which is a sign of genius, in small memory.
Pythagoras, as the ancient writers tell us, the disciples of such a system has been in recovering the instituendisque. Pythagoras of the young men, who had come to him, that they might learn, from the mouth of the character and dispositions of a road of understanding of the whole of the body of the dress. And when he had thus examined, and suitable to him, in the discipline of the reception immediately. From that time the disciple ought to have a certain time to be silent.
We can not all the same time in silence we know. Others, for a time they were silent, each man was silent but no less than two years. But the one who held his peace, what was being said by others, listen to him. Even when a disciple to the dumb, nor inquire of you, if too little is it understood it, nor to comment on what they have heard, he was allowed. When the disciple has learned a thing diffiiciles: keep quiet and listen - as well as the words of the do, search, and write for them to speak.
