IT is ordered, that any Commander, Captaine or Officer whatsoever, that shall (unlesse thereunto licenced of his or their Commander in Chiefe) refuse or decline the service for the present supply of his Majestie into England, being for the same designed or appointed, shall be for ever hereafter deemed uncapable of any imployment from the publicke, and a man of no repute or esteeme in the kingdome: and shall be further committed to be punished according to the Law of Armes. And all Souldiers now designed, and inlisted under any Command for that expedition, shall not withdraw or run from such their colours upon paine of death. Tertio Martij, 1645.

§

FInding not onely the great care and sense expressed in the order here above (which sufficiently demonstrates how zealous the assembly was to promote his Majesties service, and to preserve the honour of this Nation:) But that also, in prosecution thereof, the Right Honorable the Supreme Councell, resolved to have the same printed: I asked leave in the same paper to subscribe this addition, whereby it may under my hand appeare, that by the providence of Almighty God, there is now sufficient shipping not onely already preparing to carry above six thousand men (whereof five or six of the Ships are well stored with Ammunition and Ordinance) but I also daily expect seven or eight (if not ten) Frigots for a Convoy; the least of them Carrying eighteen peeces of Ordinance, and one Ship of thirty six. And to the further, honour and praise of God Almighties goodnesse and providence, there came yesterday severall letters, that Chester holds out yet gallantly, having beaten their enemy out of their neerest works; and those parts together with it, expects onely the Countenance of this Army to beate the Enemies to King and Religion out of that Countrey: Besides the same letters import that the Marquesse of Montrosse hath gotten a great victory, and hath taken and slaine 400. of their horse, and that also a certaine expectation of an Army out of France to land in the other parts of England, hath caused the stoppage of men and shipping designed for this kingdome. And it evidently appeares that the three ships of burthen and strength which are now come into Waterford, occasioned the report that many of the Enemies Ships appeared upon the Coast, threatning Duncanon: the falshood of which Newes makes it cleerely evident, that the great noyse was onely bruited by such who desired to deterre those, whose Gallantry transports them to this service, to the end that their pusilanimities might the lesse appeare: But to conclude, the above printed order doth not threaten greater infamy or punishment, then I in his Majesties Name dare in England promise honour and reward: and that if the great expences I have already been at before I came into this kingdome, and the incessant paines I have and doe take in order to the King my Masters service may gaine favour at his hands, it shall be imployed in encouraging, securing, and advancing this Army: Esteeming their reward my owne, which (God willing) hereafter shall more appeare by my actions then I will now set forth by words: And avoiding further prolixity I will onely attest the verity of what is here set downe by subscribing my name,

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).
