the_o form_n of_o church-government_n and_o worship_n put_v violent_o upon_o they_o against_o their_o conscience_n by_o the_o king_n and_o bishop_n second_o whether_o the_o scot_n ought_v or_o have_v any_o more_o authority_n or_o right_a to_o prescribe_v or_o endeavour_v a_o imposition_n of_o church-government_n and_o worship_n upon_o the_o people_n of_o england_n than_o the_o people_n of_o
