41. On Baals Preists.
Iehu's crown'd King; Iehu the King must fallTo Ahabs God: Iehu must worship Baal:
The gods-divided people must goe call
Baals sacred Preists: Iehu must worship Baal:
None must be left behind; They must come all;
Iehu must burne a Sacrifice to Baal:
The Priests come puffing in; both great and small,
Must wait on Iehu that must worship Baal:
Baals house is fill'd and crouded to the wall
With people, that are come to worship Baal:
81
Perfume Baals nostrils? ev'n the Preists of Baal:
Baals holy Temple's now become a Stall
Of Preistly flesh; of fleshly Priests for Baal;
How would our Gospell flourish, if that all
Princes, like Iehu, would but worship Baal!
