    Since trifles make the sum of human things,
    And half our misery from our foibles springs;
    Since life's best joys consist in peace and ease,
    And though but few can serve, yet all may please;
    On, let th' ungentle spirit learn from hence,
    A small unkindness is a great offence.

And his unkindness may defeat my life,

Sharp-toothed unkindness, like a vulture, here.
