Another very usual, but most evil cause of Hatred, is Injury, when a man because he hath done wrong, doth from thence resolve to Hate him. Too many examples whereof there are in Writings both sacred and profane: Joseph• Mistress first wronged him in assaulting his chastity, and then Hated him and caused him to be cast into prison. Ammon first abused his sister Tamar, and then Hated her worse than before he loved her. Phaedra having solicited Hippolytus ⟨p. 123⟩her husbands son unto incest; being denied, did after accuse him to his father, and procure his ruin. And Aristotle proposeth it as a Problem,1 Why they, who corrupt and violate the chastity of any, do after hate them? and gives this reason of it, because they ever after look on them, as guilty of that shame and sadness, which in the sin they contracted. This cause of Hatred Seneca and Tacitus have both observed as a thing2 usual with proud and insolent men, first to Hurt then to Hate.
