1838. There is such a thing as rightful indignation
It is possible "to be rightfully indignant," or [in Swedish] fortryta godt, from love, as, for example, with little children or innocent people when they are annoyed. This was shown to me by means of a certain kind of spirits, who were good, but indignant that others were not present when something delightful was being received. But where those spirits come from I do not yet know. I spoke with them a little, and they are good. So I was able to find out that rightful indignation does exist. For I felt their displeasure, which they induced on my face. 1748, 5 April.
