The DNB entry on Robert Calder, clergyman of the Scottish episcopalian church, states that 'he was the reputed author of 'Scottish Presbyterian Eloquence display'd', 1693, a collection of citations intended to expose the irreverent liberties indulged in by the presbyterians in their prayers and sermons' [1693 is the date of the second edition]
