EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO.

EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org).

The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source.

Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data.

Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so.

Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as <gap>s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor.

The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines.

Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).

Keying and markup guidelines are available at the Text Creation Partnership web site.

An Epytaphe vppon the Death of the Right Reuerend and learned Father in God. I. Iuell, Doctor of Diuinitie and Bishop of Sarisburie. Whom God called to his marcie the. 22. of September. 1571. THe Iuell of our ioye is gone, the happie heauens haue wonne, The greatest gift that euer was, with vs beneth the sonne: Which makes such weepinge eyes, in Sallesbury they saye, As all the ronning streames therof, can neuer washe awaye. (Alas) is Iuell dead, the folder of the flocke. If Death haue caught the Diall vp, then who shall keepe the Clocke? O God, what greete is this, thye charie Churche should want, A Bishoppe of so good a grace, wher good men be so skant: Wee feare the plague (they saye) but such a plague as this, Sithens I was borne I neuer knewe, nor neuer shall iwis: Yet are there some behinde, I trust will learne to knowe, How Iuell to his dieng daye, his Talents did bestowe. So busie at his booke, to bring the truth to light, As they that lyke the redie way, maye looke and finde it right, His house and housholde was so kept for his degree, As Paull in his Epistles wrightes a Bishoppes house should bee: His Diocesse I beleeue, hee kept in so good awe, As Uertue is content to sweare, they liued within her lawe. His handes and harte were free, the needie could not lacke, Such peace and concorde planted hee, as nothing went to wracke: And charie went to Churche, him-selfe by breake of daye, That his example might procure, the rest to go that waye: And gaue vnto his men, their dueties when hee died, With large and Lordlie recompence, this can not bee denied. (Alas) with piteous mone, all Christians nowe maye weepe. That wee haue such a Shepard gone: God helpe the selie sheepe: Meethinkes I see in heauen, triumphant truth appeare, And faythfulnes, which speake alowde let Iuell nowe come neare. Thappostelles all do prease, meethinckes to see his face: And all the Angells go about to bring him to his place: Euen Christ him selfe mee thinkes, I see begins to smile, And saith: beholde my chosen frend, I lookte for all this while. And Abraham rendes his clothes, and bowells out his brest, And sayth to Iuell iumpe in here, and take thye quiet rest. Finis Quod. W. Elderton.
