Vices are their own punishment

Ava'ricious and 'Envious ' Two 'neighbours 'came before 'Jupiter / and 'prayed him to 'grant↗ their 'hearts’ de'sire↘. Now the 'one was 'full of ∨avarice, and the 'other / 'eaten 'up with 'envy↘. So to 'punish them 'both, Jupiter 'granted↗ / that 'each might have what'ever he wished for himself, but 'only on con'dition / that his 'neighbour had 'twice↗ as much↘. The Ava'ricious man↗ 'prayed to have a 'room 'full of 'gold↘. 'No↗ 'sooner 'said than 'done; but 'all his 'joy was 'turned to 'grief / when he 'found that his 'neighbour had 'two rooms full of the precious metal↘. 'Then↗ came the 'turn of the 'Envious man, who could 'not↗ bear to 'think that his 'neighbour had 'any joy at 'all↘. So he 'prayed that he 'might have 'one of his own 'eyes put 'out, by 'which means / his com'panion would become 'totally 'blind↘. 'Vices are their 'own 'punishment.
