CHAPTER 6
1 To these men, who walked in holiness, there was gathered a great multitude of the elect, who, having suffered, through envy, many insults and ᵃtortures, became a most excellent example among us
2 Through envy women were persecuted, even the Danaides and Dircae, who, after enduring dreadful and unholy ᵃinsults, attained to the sure course of the faith; and they who were weak in body received a noble reward.
3 Envy hath estranged the minds of wives from their husbands, and changed the saying of our father Adam: ᵃThis is now bone of my bone, and flesh of my flesh.
