Hell hath no fury (like a woman scorned) proverb
Used to say that nothing is worse than the wrath of a woman who was betrayed in love
A: "I think I'll break up with her. I can't do this anymore!" B: "It's your choice. But please be gentle on her, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, you know."
Adrian will soon find out that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned if he keeps on cheating his girlfriend.
Express one's feelings of anger very strongly in spoken words
To look or glare very angrily at someone
to release your anger
To be put in a bad mood
This expression came from the play The Mourning Bride written by the English playwright and poet William Congreve in 1697:
"Heav'n has no Rage, like Love to Hatred turn'd,
Nor Hell a Fury, like a Woman scorn'd."
The Mourning Bride is a tragic play, first performed in 1697. The line was spoken by Zara who was captured and made a prisoner and became involved in a deadly love triangle.
