homilize

You who prate and homilize of charity! charity! and who quote the ‘golden rule’ solely for the edification and guidance of those around you.

And so, here by the western seas, where the homeless Atlantic finds a home, do I, a simple, rural priest, venture to homilize and philosophize on that great human gift of talk.

Eschew now the quill—in the coming years Homilize man through his idle ears.
