         When vice prevails, and impious men bear away,
         The post of honor is a private station.  --Addison.
   Syn: Impious, Irreligious, Profane.
   Usage: Irreligious is negative, impious and profane are
          positive. An indifferent man may be irreligious; a
          profane man is irreverent in speech and conduct; an
          impious man is wickedly and boldly defiant in the
          strongest sense. Profane also has the milder sense of
          secular. --C. J. Smith. -- Im"pi*ous*ly, adv. --
