"Envy within, busy at the meal of snake's flesh... her tongue dripped in venom. Only the sight of suffering could bring a smile to her lips. ... She looked with dismay on men's good fortune... She could hardly refrain from weeping when she saw no cause for tears."
- Ovid, The House of Envy in his 'Metamorphoses'
