love's twin, burning the vessel that carries it long before it scorches the target
means An intense, sustained hostility or loathing toward someone or something.
from From Middle English 'hatreden,' built from the noun 'hate' plus the suffix '-red' (as in 'kindred' and 'hundred'), an old ending denoting a condition or state. 'Hate' itself goes back to Old English 'hete' and the verb 'hatian,' rooted in the Proto-Germanic '*hataz'; it has cousins in German 'Hass' and likely a deeper relative in a Proto-Indo-European root meaning 'to be sad' or 'to grieve' — so the very word carries a hint that hatred begins as pain.
