¶ By the Quene, ¶ A Proclamation to explane the Quenes Maiesties meanyng, vpon a former made in March last.

WHere of late vpon diuers great considerations, the Quenes moste excellent Maiestie, by her proclamation did prohibite the transportation into this Realme (vntyl a tyme, as it appeareth by the sayd proclamation) of any wares or commodities out of the lowe Countries, beyond the Seas. For that as it hath appeared to her Maiestie, by letters and message lately sent to her from her deare Cosin the Duchesse of Parma, Regent in the saide lowe Countries, that it is doubted by the Marchauntes residyng in those Countryes, if any vessell laden from thens to passe into Fraunce, Spayne, or Portingale, should by wynde or other necessary cause, be forced to enter into any Porte of this Realme for succour, without dischargyng or puttyng to vent any of their marchandizes, whether in those cases her Maiesties intention was or is, that the same shoulde be stayed and deteyned. Her Maiestie geueth all persons to vnderstand, that although by many hard, vnseasonable, and vncurteous proceadynges in these lowe Countryes and other where, agaynst the entercourse, and to the purpose of subuertyng of all her Subiectes hauntyng those Countryes, she hath ben prouoked to do more for her Subiectes, then hitherto she hath done: Yet hauyng no maner of intention to impaire the amitie betwixt her and the Kyng of Spayne her good brother, but rather to fortifie and increase it, she neuer ment nor now meaneth, that any maner of person transporting out of the said low Countries, in any vessell, any wares to be discharged in any other Countrey, out of England, and yet by occasion necessarily forced to come with the sayd vessell into any Porte of this Realme, shalbe impeched or molested for so doyng, except the same shal also vnlade or discharge any their wares or marchaundizes to thintent to be put to sale, or otherwise distributed in this Realme by waye of traffique or marchaundize. And so her Maiestie wylleth her intention and meanyng, to be by all maner her subiectes vnderstanden, & fauourably interpreted, towardes the subiectes of the Kyng of Spaine, or of any other Prince or Potentate, so occasioned to come into any Port or Creeke of her dominiers.

Geuen at our Manour of Richmone the .xi. day of May, the sixth yere of our raigne. 1564.

God saue the Quene.

Editorial practices

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).
