Today's Word "choler"

choler \KOLL-ur; KOLE-ur\ (noun) - Irritation of the passions; anger; wrath.

"Patience perforce with wilful choler meeting
Makes my flesh tremble in their different greeting.
I will withdraw; but this intrusion shall
Now seeming sweet, convert to bitt'rest gall." -- William Shakespeare, 'Romeo and Juliet'

Choler is from Latin cholera, a bilious disease, from Greek kholera, from khole, bile.
