The burthen of Issachar: or, The tyrannical power and practices of the Presbyteriall government in Scotland; [microform] : in their [brace] I. Parochiall session. II. Presbyterie. III. Provinciall synods. IV. Generall assembly. With the articles of Presbyterian faith inconsistent with monarchie. Whereby it is evident, that Presbyteriall fingers are heavier than Episcopall loynes; these correcting with a rod, those with a scorpion. And therefore it is not the kingdome and government of Jesus Christ, whose yoake is easie, his burthen light, and his scepter a scepter of righteousnesse.
