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.

A compendious Prologue, or Epilogue, to the duply-tripartite-patheticall, unpubliſhed ſtudies (animadvertory, ſuppeditatory, to the Kings Majeſty, his Dominions and Adherents) of J. T. (a hearty wel-willer to his King and Country) ſince the incurſion of theſe inteſtine wars, &c. Being a conſervatory dilation, and cordiall application, to the uſe and advantage of all in all. Dread Soveraigne,

THeſe labours of your loyall reall Subject, as they were at firſt undertaken, ſo have they been proſecuted, chiefly for your Majeſties and Kingdomes good; by which your Majeſty eſpecially (and many others) are premoniſhed and ſummoned in entire affection, (if you will at laſt) to work out your owne, and your Subjects (committed to your charge) good, by yet honourable, diſcreet, cordiall returne and reſidence with your faithfull, fairely, firſt elected, and often acknowledged Parliament: It was the wiſdome and underſtanding, nay, the righteouſneſſe of the people of Iſrael, to obſerve and doe the Statutes and judgements the Lord commanded them by the hand of Moſes, for their good: In the opinion of your Subjects generally (dread Soveraigne) it is your beſt, wiſeſt courſe in the ſight of all Nations, which ſhall heare thereof, thus to returne. Doe it perſonally dread Soveraigne; adviſe to, and act it (God enable you) Nobles and Gentlemen: The learned ſay acts agimus; God that made us without our ſelves, will not ſave us without our ſelves: There is no peace nor good to be expected in England, &c. till every man doe his duty, diſcharge his place: As the Parliament (I take it) have continually performed their parts, ſo (dread Soveraigne, excuſe my humble ſubjugall boldneſſe) it concernes your candid Majeſty to diſcharge yours. O God enable all: If thre be a willing mind, what can hinder? Abraham would not contend with Lot his inferiour, but gave him the preheminence: The Parliament are againe preparing Propoſitions; if there be not a reall generall compliance, doubtleſſe the juſt God will (whenſoever) take vengeance: Tremble, ſtand in awe, whoſoever it concernes (eſpecially thoſe that ſhall but goe about to ſtop this work from the Kings Majeſty, his eare, his eye, or both; or from any other it neceſſarily or hopefully concernes for the publike good) ſinne not againſt Englands, &c. preſent peace, and your own future good; the great King that is placed upon the holy hill of Sion, will certainly break the thus abſolute, conſcience telling, ſtill repugners to peace (he hath had them in deriſion all this while) with a rod of iron, and daſh them in pieces like a Potters veſſell; Be wiſe now therefore O ye Kings, be inſtructed ye Nobles, &c. Gods wrath is not a little kindled, his plagues and vengeance will abſolutely fall heavy ſomewhere (where is the fault) if there be no remedy.

This the following labours are (no Epitheſis, but) in every part full of love and reall perſwaſion to a bleſſed, by all much to be deſired and endeavoured, Peace; nay, ſo full of (truly columbine) reduplication and repetitory ingemination; that truly you may eſteem them nonſenſe, loquacity: But yet take heed, in this vaſt, civill breach, be not ſo uncivill to judge ſo; the ſchoole of Heaven may, will admit of Totologies, eſpecially in ſuch a caſe, ſuch a time as this is.

If thou canſt (I wiſh thee for thy good, doe it) find opportunity hereby (by theſe poor equanimall inculcations) to benefit thy ſelfe, thy Country, honour thy God; doe it, thou ſhalt well ſatisfie thy loyall hearty Suppliant; pleaſe thy gracious, if you conſent, juſt, righteous dealing, if you refuſe, God: We ought to do (eſpecially in ſuch a buſineſſe as this) that which is wel-pleaſing and acceptable to God. The whole current of the Scriptures denounce and publiſh many bleſſings to the obedient, curſes of all ſorts to the diſobedient, Deut. 28. Levit 26. chapters eſpecially.

When thou ſhalt beget children, and childrens children, and ſhalt have remained long in the Land, and ſhall corrupt your ſelves, and make a graven Image, or the likeneſſe of any thing, and ſhall doe evill in the ſight of the Lord thy God, to provoke him to anger; I call Heaven and earth to witneſſe againſt you this day, that you ſhall ſoon utterly periſh from off the Land whereunto you goe over Jordan to poſſeſſe it; you ſhall not prolong your dayes upon it, but ſhall utterly be deſtroyed.

I ſpake unto you, and you would not heare; but rebelled againſt the Commandement of the Lord, and went preſumptuously up into the hill.

And the Amorites which dwelt in that Mountaine, came out againſt you, and chaſed you as Bees doe, and deſtroyed you in Seir even unto Hormah.

It was of the Lord to harden their hearts, that they ſhould come againſt Iſrael in battell, that he might deſtroy them utterly, and that they might have no favour; but that he might deſtroy them as the Lord commanded Moſes.

Wherefore the anger of the Lord was kindled againſt Amaziah, and he ſent unto him a Prophet, which ſaid unto him, why haſt thou ſought after the gods of the people, which could not deliver their owne people out of thine hand.

And it came to paſſe as he talked with him, that the King ſaid unto him, art thou made of the Kings Counſell? forbeare, why ſhouldeſt thou be ſmitten? Then the Prophet forbare and ſaid, I know that God hath determined (for it came of God, ver. 20.) to deſtroy thee, becauſe thou haſt done this, and haſt not hearkned unto my Counſell.

Every morning the Lord bringeth his judgements to light, he faileth not; but the wicked will not (the ingenuous, pious will) learne to be aſhamed; the unjuſt knoweth no ſhame.

Put them in feare, O Lord, that they may know themſelves to be but men, Selah.

Obſerve all theſe words which I command thee, that it may goe well with thee, and with thy children after thee for ever, when thou doſt that which is juſt and right in the ſight of the Lord thy God.

If they heare not Moſes and the Prophets, neither will they be perſwaded though one roſe from the dead.

In all things ſhewing thy ſelfe a patterne of good works, in doctrine, ſhewing uncorruptneſſe, gravity, ſincerity.

Sound ſpeech that cannot be condemned, that he that is of the contrary part may be aſhamed, having no evill thing to ſay of you.

Conſider what I ſay, and the Lord give thee underſtanding in all things.

Study to ſhew thy ſelfe approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be aſhamed, &c.
