Benedictine Rule - c. 520 - 530 CE - The Benedictine Rule
written by Saint Benedict of Nursia, c. 480 - 543 CE, advocated an
ideal of moderation for monks who wished to maintain a righteous
lifestyle. The sense of the rule is that one should moderate, yet
one might also be compelled to deprive themself and receive a
``proper reward.'' definition
