There be none of the affections, which have been noted to fascinate or
bewitch(施魔法，蛊惑), but love and envy. They both have vehement(激烈的) wishes; they
frame themselves readily into imaginations and suggestions; and they come easily
into the eye, especially upon the present of the objects; which are the points
that conduce to fascination, if any such thing there be. We see likewise, the
Scripture calleth envy an evil eye; and the astrologers(占星家), call the evil
influences of the stars, evil aspects; so that still there seemeth to be
acknowledged, in the act of envy, an ejaculation or irradiation of the eye. Nay,
some have been so curious, as to note, that the times when the stroke or
percussion of an envious eye doth most hurt, are when the party envied is beheld
in glory or triumph; for that sets an edge upon envy: and besides, at such times
the spirits of the person envied, do come forth most into the outward parts, and
so meet the blow.
But leaving these curiosities (though not unworthy to be thought on, in fit
place), we will handle, what persons are apt to envy others; what persons are
most subject to be envied themselves; and what is the difference between public
and private envy.
A man that hath no virtue in himself, ever envieth virtue in others. For
men's minds, will either feed upon their own good, or upon others' evil; and who
wanteth the one, will prey upon the other; and whoso is out of hope, to attain
to another's virtue, will seek to come at even hand, by depressing another's
fortune.
A man that is busy, and inquisitive(好奇的), is commonly envious. For to know
much of other men's matters, cannot be because all that ado may concern his own
estate; therefore it must needs be, that he taketh a kind of play-pleasure, in
looking upon the fortunes of others. Neither can he, that mindeth but his own
business, find much matter for envy. For envy is a gadding passion, and walketh
the streets, and doth not keep home: Non est curiosus, quin idem sit
malevolus.
Men of noble birth, are noted to be envious towards new men, when they
rise. For the distance is altered, and it is like a deceit(欺骗) of the eye, that
when others come on, they think themselves, go back.
