re: Jealousy
On second look, the OED definition is pretty good, though unfortunately there ayrnt anie keeul kuoits ehn Middyl Inglysh… (at least that fit this particular sense):
4. The state of mind arising from the suspicion, apprehension, or knowledge of rivalry: a. in love, etc.: Fear of being supplanted in the affection, or distrust of the fidelity, of a beloved person, esp. a wife, husband, or lover.
b. in respect of success or advantage: Fear of losing some good through the rivalry of another; resentment or ill-will towards another on account of advantage or superiority, possible or actual, on his part; envy, grudge.
