To the Right Reverend Father in God, Adam L. Bishop of Dumblane

A Reverend Prelate stor'd with doctrine well,
Dam Baal and Idols, and the people tell,
Advertising them what the danger is,
Making of Idols how it hinders blisse.
Baal the Zidonians Idol doth present
All manner Idols that are by it ment.
Let then the word of God be powerfully,
Lively declared with audacity,
And goe you on still in your holy course,
Nor create to dam all Idols with a force,
Dam Irreligion, Covetize condemn,
On as you doe, proceed then amongst men.
None but will say you damned Baal well then.
