HIs MAJESTY, to His great and unexpressible griefe, finding the Rebellion of the City of London, and the distraction of the whole Kingdome (occasioned principally by that means) to continue, whereby it will be extreamly inconvenient both for Himselfe and to all His good Subjects to make their repaire to the Cities of London and Westminster to the Terme, to be held at Westminster in such manner as it was wont for the whole Terme, Doth by this His Royall Proclamation Order, Appoynt and Declare, That the Court of Chancery, and all proceedings in that Court of what kinds or sorts soever, The Receipt of the Exchequer, and of the first Fruits and Tenths, and of the Dutchy of Cornwall, and the whole Court of Exchequer, (except only the Office of Pleas in that Court) and the Court of Exchequer Chamber, the Court of the Du [...]chy of Lancaster, the Court of Wards and Liveries, and the Court of White-Hall, or Court of Requests, shall be held and continued at His Citty of Oxford in the County of Oxford, (where His Majesties residence now is, and for this Winter season is like to be) for and during the whole Terme of St Michaell now next ensuing. And that all the said Courts not before excepted, and the said Receipts, shall remain and continue, and be held at the said City of Oxford, untill His Majesty shall otherwise determine thereof and Declare the same.

And His Majesty doth farther Declare, That He doth resolve that the Courts of Kings-Bench, and Common-Pleas, and the Pleas between Party and Party in the Office of Pleas in the said Court of Exchequer, shall upon and from the first day of the first Returne of Michaelmas Terme next, commonly called Tres Michaelis, be adjourned untill the fist Returne of that Terme commonly called Octabis Martini; and that the said fist Returne called Octabis Martini, and the sixth and last Returne called Quindena Martini shall be held at the City of Westminster in the usuall places where formerly they were held, and the residue of the said first Returne of Tres Michaelis. The second Returne of the said Terme called Mense Michaelis, the third Returne of the said Terme, called Crastino Animarum, and the fourth Returne called Crastino Martini, shall be wholly omitted, and all appearances at any of the said second, third, and fourth Returnes to be at and on the said fist Returne called Octabis Martini.

All which His Majesty signifieth to all and singular His Officers and Ministers of the said severall Courts and Receipts, and to all other His loving Subjects of this His Realme, to the intent that they and every of them who should performe any service there, or shall have any suit or other occasion to attend in any of the said Courts of Chancery, Exchequer Chamber, Court of Exchequer (other then in the Office of Pleas there) or the Receipt of the Exchequer, and First Fruits and Tenths, or Dutchy of Cornwall, or in the Court of the Dutchy of Lancaster, Court of Wards and Liveries, and Court of Requests, may take notice thereof, and give their attendances at the said City of Oxford as aforesaid, and not elsewhere, & that such of them as have cause or command to appeare in any of the said Courts ot Kings Bench, or Common-Pleas, or Court of Exchequer in the Office of Pleas there, may also take notice thereof, & give their attendances accordingly, without danger of for forfeitur, penalty, or contempt to be incurred towards His Majesty, or prejudice to themselves in that behalf.

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).
