Closet Prayer Secret in Mode as Well as in Place
Matthew 6:6
But you, when you pray, enter into your closet, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father which is in secret…


Not like the hen who goes into a secret place to lay her egg, but by her cackling tells all the house where she is, and what she is doing.

(Gurnall.)
