A discussion about the ghost in Act 1, Scene 5 of myshakespeare's Hamlet.

Laertes

The perfume and suppliance of a minute, 
No more.

Ophelia

                   No more but so?

Laertes

                                                  Think it no more. 
For nature crescent does not grow alone
In thews and bulk, but as this temple waxes,
The inward service of the mind and soul
