    Spite \Spite\, n. [Abbreviated fr. despite.]
    1. Ill-will or hatred toward another, accompanied with the
    disposition to irritate, annoy, or thwart; petty malice;
    grudge; rancor; despite. --Pope.

    This is the deadly spite that angers. --Shak.

    2. Vexation; chargrin; mortification. [R.] --Shak.

    {In spite of}, or {Spite of}, in opposition to all efforts
    of; in defiance or contempt of; notwithstanding.
    ``Continuing, spite of pain, to use a knee after it had
    been slightly injured.'' --H. Spenser. ``And saved me in
    spite of the world, the devil, and myself.'' --South. ``In
    spite of all applications, the patient grew worse every
    day.'' --Arbuthnot. See Syn. under {Notwithstanding}.

    {To owe one a spite}, to entertain a mean hatred for him.

    Syn: Pique, rancor; malevolence; grudge.

    Usage: {Spite}, {Malice}. Malice has more reference to the
    disposition, and spite to the manifestation of it in
    words and actions. It is, therefore, meaner than
    malice, thought not always more criminal. `` Malice .
    . . is more frequently employed to express the
    dispositions of inferior minds to execute every
    purpose of mischief within the more limited circle of
    their abilities.'' --Cogan. ``Consider eke, that spite
    availeth naught.'' --Wyatt. See {Pique}.
