Explain the hell hath no fury than a woman scorned?

Answer 1

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The actual phrase is: "Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned" The phrase was coined by the Playwright/Poet William Congreve, in The mourning bride, 1697: "Hell has no fury like a woman scorned"

Act 3, Scene 2 ends with these words: ZARA. Thou shalt die. OSM. I thank you. ZARA. Thou ly'st; for now I know for whom thou'dst live. OSM. Then you may know for whom I'd die. ZARA. Hell! Hell!

Yet I'll be calm- Dark and unknown Betrayer!

But now the Dawn begins, and the slow Hand

Of Fate is stretch'd to draw the Veil, and leave

Thee bare, the naked Mark of Publick View.

OSM. You may be still deceiv'd; 'tis in my Pow'r. ZARA. Ha! Who waits there? - Enter PEREZ. - As you'll answer it, take heed

This Slave commit no Violence upon

Himself. I've been deceiv'd. The Publick Safety

Requires he should be more confin'd; and none,

No not the Princes self, permitted to

Confer with him. I'll quit you to the King.

Vile and ingrate! too late thou shalt repent

The base Injustice thou hast done my Love:

Yes, thou shalt know, spite of thy past Distress,

And all those Ills which thou so long hast mourn'd;

Heav'n has no Rage, like Love to Hatred turn'd,

Nor Hell a Fury, like a Woman scorn'd.
