English term or phrase: author of mischief
The Twelfth House.

It hath signification of private enemies, of witches, great cattle - as horses, oxen, elephants, &c.; sorrow, tribulation, imprisonments, all manner of affliction, self-undoing, &c., and of such men as maliciously undermine their neighbours, or inform secretly against them.
It hath cosignificators Pisces and Venus; Saturn doth much joy in that house, for naturally Saturn is author of mischief; and it ruleth in man's body the feet.

“For example, one time he invites home Vittorio di Santa Sede, a slimy intrigant who reached a high ranking position in the Vatican by organizing sly plots with fascist and nazi leaders. A person who at the end of the war managed to escape from the Germans first and then from the allies. Needless to say, Vittorio's function is to put Roberte in trouble.”
“Young men that plot a mischief to stop her with the excuse to shine her shoes and assault her clumsily.”
