E3P40C1

Corollary — Part III

Latin

Qui quem amat odio erga se affectum imaginatur, odio et amore simul conflictabitur. Nam quatenus imaginatur ab eodem se odio haberi, determinatur (per propositionem præcedentem) ad eundem contra odio habendum. At (per hypothesin) ipsum nihilominus amat : ergo odio et amore simul conflictabitur.

English (Elwes 1883)

He who conceives, that one whom he loves hates him, will be a prey to conflicting hatred and love. For, in so far as he conceives that he is an object of hatred, he is determined to hate his enemy in return. But, by the hypothesis, he nevertheless loves him: wherefore he will be a prey to conflicting hatred and love.

Modern English

He who loves someone and imagines that person to be affected with hatred toward him will be torn between hatred and love at the same time. For insofar as he imagines himself to be hated by that person, he is determined (E3P40) to hate in return. Yet by hypothesis he still loves the person. He will therefore be torn between hatred and love simultaneously.
