In context
22Before pleasure is lust; and after pleasure, joy.
23And before pain is fear; and after pain, sorrow.
— 4 Maccabees 1:24 —
25And there exists in pleasure a malicious disposition, which is the most multiform of all the affections.
26In the soul it is arrogance, and love of money, and vaingloriousness, and contention, and faithlessness, and the evil eye.
