    fomenting

Cursed is the man, and void of law and right,
Unworthy property, unworthy light,
Unfit for public rule, or private care,
That wretch, that monster, that delights in war:
Whose lust is murder, and whose horrid joy
To tear his country, and his kind destroy!

ὃς πολέμου ἔραται ἐπιδημίου ὀκρυόεντος.]
