Book II, 42: On Baals Priests

Iehu's crown'd King; Iehu the King must fall
To Ahabs Gods: Iehu must worship Baal:
The gods-divided people must goe call
Baals sacred Priests: Iehu must worship Baal:
None must be left behinde; 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.
What must there now be done? what Offring shall
Perfume Baals nostrils? ev'n the Priests of Baal:
Baals holy Temple's now become a Stall
Of Priestly flesh; of fleshly Priests for Baal;
How would our Gospell flourish, if that all
Princes, like Iehu, would but worship Baal!
