To be up front at mass looking all devout and holy.

In use

That owl bitch up lickin daltar rails every mornin, and ruining people wid gossip de rest of de time.

Posh English

That wretched old crone, osculating the altar rails each morn and assassinating reputations for the remainder of the day.
