First sentence: IT is told of Pythagoras the Samian by his admirers that he was not an Ionian at all; that he was for a time at Troy in the person of Euphorbus; that after dying in the manner which Homer's poem relates, he came to life again; that he declined to be clothed with any animal product, and abstained from all eating or sacrificing of animals.
