❧By the King.

WHere in a Proclamation (lately by vs published) for considerations therein expressed, We prescribed a course whereby the complaints of our people might bee taken away, if the same should appeare to bee iustly grounded; Hauing nowe since that time receiued particular information, that a Graunt to certaine Patentees for the sole preemption of Tinne, was very inconuenient and full of grieuance to our louing Subiects: Wee, after long debate thereof before our Selfe and our Priuie Councell, where obiections of either side were made, and where the inconueniences were layed open, Haue resolued not onely to consider how the generalitie of our Subiects might bee relieued in suspension of this Graunt, but how the same might be done without any iniustice to any particuler person, who is interessed therein by vertue of Letters Patents vnder the great Seale of England, whereof wee neuer intend to seeke any course of reuocation, but by an ordinary course of Iustice, in which all our people are equally interessed. In which respect, hauing commaunded the Lords and others of our Priuie Councell to call before them the Patentees, and then to offer them all such triall for the maintenance of that Patent, as the Iustice of this our Realme affordeth, The said Patentees haue rather yeelded in their owne duetie and discretions, to surrender the Patent, then to goe about to maintaine it: Whereof wee thought it fit that all our good Subiects should take notice, as an Argument of our continuall care and desire to doe all things, which tend to the reliefe of our people in any thing, whereby they receiue any maner of oppression, as long as they shall duetifully and orderly appeale vnto vs for the same.

Giuen at our Mannour of Greenwich the 16. day of Iune, in the first yeere of our Reigne of England, France, and Ireland, And in the sixe and thirtieth of Scotland.

God saue the King.

Creation

Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford.

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).
