And what they weigh, even to the utmost scruple;
Scambling, out-facing, fashion-mong'ring boys,
That lie, and cog, and flout, deprave, and slander,

And speak off half a dozen dangerous words,
How they might hurt their enemies, if they durst;
And this is all.
William Shakespeare

True worship is when the spirit, the immortal and invisible part of man, speaks to and meets with God, who is immortal and invisible.
William Barclay
