Successu indignos...

Here is today's distich by Cato (so-called), 2.23, with English translations by Duff and Chase.

Successu indignos noli tu ferre moleste:
Indulget Fortuna malis, ut vincere possit.

Vex not thyself when bad men win, for so
Doth fortune go about to lay them low.
(Chase)

Chafe not against men's undeserved success:
To bring it low Luck smiles on wickedness.
(Duff)
