AE 556b - "An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth."

AE 556b [9]
"An eye for and eye, and a tooth for a tooth,"
signifies that so far as any one takes away from another the understanding of truth and the sense of truth, so far are they taken away from him, the "eye" signifying the understanding of truth, and "tooth" the sense of truth, for a "tooth" means truth or falsity such as the sensual man has.
