Usage : {
Awe }, {
Reverence }, {
Dread }, {
Veneration }.
Reverence is a strong sentiment of respect and esteem ,
sometimes mingled slightly with fear ;
as ,
reverence for the divine law .
Awe is a mixed feeling of sublimity and dread in view of something great or terrible ,
sublime or sacred ;
as ,
awe at the divine presence .
It does not necessarily imply love .
Dread is an anxious fear in view of an impending evil ;
as ,
dread of punishment .
Veneration is reverence in its strongest manifestations .
It is the highest emotion we can exercise toward human beings .
Exalted and noble objects produce reverence ;
terrific and threatening objects awaken dread ;
a sense of the divine presence fills us with awe ;
a union of wisdom and virtue in one who is advanced in years inspires us with veneration .
