Regret itself is entirely the study of the reversed postulate. One intended to do something good and one did something bad. Similarly, it could also happen that one intended to do something bad and accidentally did something good. Either incident would be regretted. Examples of the first condition are easy to conceive. In the second category, there was once a man who intended to “get the best of” a woman of somewhat herculean proportions. Somewhere in this contest the woman fell ill and he healed her and did it to such an excellent degree that the woman, to whom mercy was unknown, thereafter promptly overwhelmed him entirely. Here we have the public belief that to heal is good, but in this particular case it was regretted by the individual and would have been regretted even though he did not experience a later loss.
