RETALIA'TION, n.

1. The return of like for like; the doing that to another which he has done to us; requital of evil.

2. In a good sense, return of good for good.

God takes what is done to others as done to himself, and by promise obliges himself to full retaliation.

[This, according to modern usage, is harsh.]
