WHereas againſt divers Lawes, Orders and proviſions, great numbers of Men and Women and their Children and Servants doe daily on the weeke daies, all the day long, ſit in the High-ſtreet of Cheape, with multitudes of Baskets, Tubbs and other veſſels of Fruit, Roots, Hearbs, Plants, Flowers and other Garden Commodities to ſell & utter, and doe thereby ſo fill, peſter and ſtreighten the ſaid Street, that not only the Inhabitants are much hindred and damnified in their trades and eſtates, but they and all people travailing and paſſing through the ſame ſtreet, expoſed to manifold hazards and dangers, and many hurts and miſchiefs have hapned, beſides the further annoyance thence ariſing from the unwholſome ſmells and ſtenches of the parings and refuſe of Roots, Plants and other filth continually left and lying ſcattered and corrupting, in that principall Street and paſſage of the City: Now this Court having well adviſed of reforming the ſaid evils and abuſes, doth therefore thinke fit and Order, that from and after the ſixth day of Auguſt next coming, no Perſon or perſons whatſoever ſhall ſtand or be permitted to ſtand or abide, at any time, with any goods or commodities (excepting Bread) to ſell or put to ſale in that part of the ſaid ſtreet of Cheape or Cheape-ſide lying betweene Bread-ſtreet end and Pauls Church-yard (the ſame having never been appointed a Market place for any commodities whatſoever) Nor ſhall ſtand or be permitted to ſtand or abide with Carts, horſes, or otherwiſe in any other place, or part of the ſaid Street of Cheap or Cheapſide, on any day or time of the weeke with any ⟨Fr⟩uit Roots, Hearbs, Plants, Flowers, or Garden Commodities (excepting Peaſcods) to ſell or put the ſame to ſale, but that every one, who ſhall be found doing contrary, ſhall be taken, and for his offence be indicted and puniſhed according to Law. And that no annoyance may enſue by the permitting of Peaſ-cods to be ſtill ſold as formerly in the ſaid ſtreet, the ſhells are to be conſtantly ſweept up and coveyed away, that they may not by remaining and corrupting, produce any noiſome or offenſive ſmells: And that there be not wanting a knowne and convenient place whither all may reſort for buying and ſelling the ſaid commodities: It is further ordered by this Court, that the Countrey people and Gardiners ſhall have place or may ſtand with their ſaid Fruit, Roots, Hearbs, Plants, Flowers, and other Garden commodities excepting Peaſ-cods, in all parts of the voyd place on the Northſide of Pauls within the Channells, and in no wife beyond or without the ſaid Channells, And may ſo ſit and abide with their Commodities as they may or ought to doe in other publique Markets of this City. Provided that none ſhall bring any Carts or horſes within the place aforeſaid, nor any to ſit or have with them there at one time above ſuch number of Tubs or Baskets, and of ſuch bigneſſe as from time to time ſhall be limited and appointed by the Lord Maior of this City for the time being: And for the better execution of this Order, the Serjeant and Yeoman of the Channell, and the Beadles of the Wards reſpectively where the ſaid Street, or any the places aforeſaid are ſituate or being, and all others whom it ſhall concerne, are charged and commanded by this Court to be intent and diligent in and about the clearing of the Street of Cheape in manner before expreſſed, and from the commodities aforeſaid, and ſetling the Country people and Gardiners, (who ſell the ſame) in the place aforeſaid, and to take upon them this ſervice, and performe the ſame effectually at their utmoſt perills.

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).
