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.

THE PROTESTANTS Wonderment, OR, A strange and unheard of Oraison put up by the Papists, found in the pocket of Captain Iames Rauley, a Rebell in Ireland:

Sent from Dublin, in a Letter of Note by Captain Edmond Hippisley, to Sir Iohn Hippisley Knight, a Member of the House of Commons.

LONDON, Printed for Iohn Franke, and are to be sold at his shop next doore to the Kings head in Fleetstreet, 1642.

Sir,

THe Lord of Antrim is not in the Rebellion as yet, but is much mistrusted, hee will be by reason hee is now gone to the County of Kildare, where at the first this businesse was begun: the Rebels would willingly come in: if they could but once heare of a Proclamation, that they should have the liberty of their Conscience, for some such thing they much expect, if they bee not mistaken of their ayme.

Sir, this Prayer I tooke out of a Rebels pocket that I killed, one Iames Rauley, a Captaine of the Rebels, who cryed for quarter, when I had sheathed my sword in his bowels, fearing that I should bee too troublesome. I rest now what I always was, Sir, your most obedient and most affectionate servant till death.

From Dublin this tenth of February, 1641.

THis Oraison was found on the Tomb of our blessed Lady, and is of such effect, that whosoever will have the same, or say it daily, or carrie it about him, shall be safe from fire, water, and skirmish of battaile, and also from noysome hanting of spirits. Moreover, whosoever shall say a Pater, Ave, and Creed, daily to the honour of holy and miraculous Virgin Mary, shee will visably shew her selfe unto him three times before his death.

O Most sweet Lord Iesus Christ, onely Son of the omnipotent Father, God of Angels, and onely Son of the most gracious Virgin Mary, help me a sinner, and save me from all present dangers wherein I am. Most excellent and blessed Virgin to be praised, to pray and intercesse for me a miserable sinner to thy welbeloved Son. O chast and honourable woman, thou art the Mother of Angels and Archangels, help me from all present evills, and all to come. O flower of Patriarks. O shining brightnesse of the Apostles, O hope of glory. O beauty of Virgins. O high thoughts of Angels and Archangels. O most sweet woman, I most humbly beseech thee not to forsake mee at the trembling time of my death, when my soule shall be seperated from my body, whereby I may see my selfe in overlasting glory by him. O flower and sweetest foundation of all sweetnesse. O star of Christ. O haven of health. O Queene of penitent offenders, hope of the faithfull Archangels, thou whose conversation is the onely recreation of the Angels and Archangels. O most honourable Lady of all sweetnesse and fortitude, thou art the most wholesom'st medicine of all sores. Thou are the labour of all vertues, through thee doe ever Angels and Archangels reioyce. O Mother of mercy look on me with thine owne mercifull eyes. And I commit me to thy most blessed armes, to inspire my soule and body, and my thoughts, so thus it pleaseth thee and thine owne beloved Sonne Iesus Christ.

Pater, Ave, and Creed.

MOst glorious Virgin, let thy flowing grace defend mee from the danger of each place, grant that thy merits once may make mee rise from Tombe, above the spangled Christall Skie, grant to my Countrey, I may so well end, that I may prayse thee eternally.

AMEN.

I found this in the pocket of a Captain of the Rebels, Captain Iames Rauley.

FINIS.
