She threw the odium of the fact on me.
Dryden.
||Odium theologicum (&?;) [L.], the enmity peculiar to contending
||theologians.
Syn. -- Hatred; abhorrence; detestation; antipathy. -- Odium, Hatred.
We exercise hatred; we endure odium. The former has an active sense,
the latter a passive one. We speak of having a hatred for a man, but
not of having an odium toward him. A tyrant incurs odium. The odium of
an offense may sometimes fall unjustly upon one who is innocent.
