321. Die Mitleidigen. - Die mitleidigen, im Unglück jederzeit hülfreichen Naturen sind selten zugleich die sich mitfreuenden: beim Glück der Anderen haben sie Nichts zu thun, sind überflüssig, fühlen sich nicht im Besitz ihrer Ueberlegenheit und zeigen desshalb leicht Missvergnügen.

321. The compassionate. Compassionate natures, always ready to help in misfortune, are seldom also those who rejoice with others: when others are fortunate, they have nothing to do, are superfluous, do not feel themselves in possession of their superiority, and therefore readily show displeasure.

321. Les compatissants. Les natures compatissantes, toujours secourables dans le malheur, sont rarement aussi celles qui savent partager la joie : devant le bonheur d’autrui, elles n’ont rien à faire, sont superflues, ne se sentent pas en possession de leur supériorité et manifestent dès lors facilement du dépit.
