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).

Printed for Mathew Walbancke 1647.
Hampton Court, 11 Novemb. 1647

COlonell Whaley; I have been ſo civilly uſed by you and Major Huntington, that I cannot but by this parting farewell acknowledge it under my hand; as alſo to deſire the continuance of your courteſie, by your protecting of my houſhold-ſtuffs and Moveables of all ſorts which I leave behinde me in this Houſe, that they be neither ſpoiled nor imbeſled: Onely there are three Pictures here which are not mine, that I deſire you to reſtore; to wit my wives Picture in blew ſitting in a Chaire, you muſt ſend to Miſtris Kirk; my eldeſt daughters Picture copied by Belcam, to the Counteſſe of Angleſey, and my Lady Stannops Picture to Cary Rawley; there is a fourth which I had almoſt forgot, it is the Originall of my eldeſt daughter (it hangs in this Chamber over the board next to the Chimney) which you muſt ſend to my Lady Aubigny. So being confident that you wiſh my preſervation and reſtitution, I reſt

Your Friend, CHARLES R.

I Aſſure you it was not the Letter you ſhewed me to day, that made me take this reſolution, nor any advertiſement of that kinde; But I confeſſe that I am loath to be made a cloſe Priſoner, under pretence of ſecuring my life. I had almoſt forgot to deſire you to ſend the black Grew Bitch to the Duke of Richmond.
Hampton Court 11 Novem. 1647.

MOuntague, Firſt I doe hereby give you and the reſt of your fellowes thanks for the civilities and good converſation that I have had from you; next I command you to ſend this my Meſſage (which you will finde upon this Table) to the two Houſes of Parliament, and likewiſe to give a Copie of it to Colonell Whaley, to be ſent to ſend to the General: likewiſe I deſire you to ſend all my ſaddle-Horſes to my Son the Duke of Yorke; as for what concernes the reſolution that I have taken my declaratory Meſſage ſayes ſo much that I referre you to it, and ſo I reſt

Your aſſured friend CHARLES R.
May it pleaſe Your Majeſty:

IN diſcharge of my duty I cannot omit to acquaint you that my brother was at a meeting laſt night with eight or nine Agitators, who in debate of the obſtacle which did moſt hinder the ſpeedy effecting of their deſignes, did conclude it was Your Majeſty, and as long as Your Majeſty doth live you would be ſo; and therefore reſolved, for the good of the Kingdome, to take your life away; and that to that Action they were well aſſured that Maſter Dell and Mr. Peters (two of their preachers) would willingly beare them company, for they had often ſaid to theſe Agitators, Your Majeſty is but a dead dogg: My prayers are for Your Majeſties ſafety; but do too much fear it cannot be whileſt you are in thoſe hands.

I wiſh with my ſoul Your Majeſty were at my houſe in Broadſtreet, where I am confident I could keep you private till this ſtorme were over, but beg Your Majeſties pardon, ſhall not preſume to offer it as an advice; it is onely my conſtant zeal to Your Service, who am
