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).

NOVEMBER. THOU Sun that ſhed'ſt the Dayes, looke downe and ſee A Month more ſhining by Events, than thee; Departed Saints and Soules ſign'd it before, 1. Day, is All Saints. But now the living ſigne it more. Perſons and Actions meet, All meant for Joy, 2. All Souls. But ſome build up, and ſome deſtroy. Bate us That Uſhering Curſe, ſo dearly knowne, And then the Month is All our Owne. So, at the firſt, Darkeneſſe was throwne about Th' unſhapen Earth, and Light was th • nce ſtrooke out. Draw the firſt Curtaine, and the Scene is then 3. Day, The Aſſembling of the unhappy Parli • ment. A Triple State of Cull'd and Truſted men: Men in whoſe hands 'twas once t'have giv'n us more Then our Bold Fathers Askd before: Who, had they us'd their Prince's Grace, had got What no Armes could, and Theirs will not. What more then Witchcraft did our Bleſſing Curſe, And made the Cure make Evills worſe? 'Tis the Third D • y; throw in the Blackeſt Stone, Marke it for Curs'd, and let it ſtand Alone. BUT hold! ſpeake gentler things! This Fourth was ſeene 4. Day, The Birth of the Princeſſe MARY. The ſofteſt Image of our Beauteous Queene. Bring me a Lambe, not us'd to Elder Food, That ha's as yet more Milke then Blood, That to the Honour of this Early Bride (Like Thetis joynd to Peleus ſide,) Some Tender Thing may fall; though nore can be So White, ſo Tender, as is She. Whiles we at home our Little Turfe debate, She ſpreads our Glories to another State. NEXT view a Tr •• ſon of the worſt Intent, 5. Day, Our Delivery from the Papiſts conſpiracy. Had not our Owne done more then Strangers meant; Religion is the Thing both ſides pretend, But either to a different End: They, out of Zeale, labour to reare their owne, Theſe, out of Zeale, to pull All downe. Bleſſe Us from Theſe, as Them! But yet compare Thoſe in the Vault, Theſe in the Chayre, Though the juſt Lot of unſucceſſefull ſin Fix their's Without, you'l finde worſe Heads Within. BUT hearke! What Thunder's that? and who thoſe men Flying tow'rds Heav'n, but falling downe agen? 12. Day, The Kings Victory at Brainford. Whoſe thoſe Blacke Corps caſt on the Guilty Shore? 'Tis ſin, that ſwimmes to its owne Dore. 'Tis the Third ſcourge of Rebells, which allow'd Our Army, like the Prophets Cloud Did from an Handfull riſe, U • till at laſt Their Sky was by it Overcaſt. But (as Snakes Hiſſe after th' have loſt their Sting) The Traytor call'd This, Treachery in the King. Away, and view the Graces and the Houres 16. Day. The Birth of our gracious Q. MARY. Hov'ring aloofe, and dropping mingled Flowres Upon a Cradle, where an Infant lay More Grace, more Good • ſſe then were they; Thrice did they deſtine Her to paſſe the ſeas (Love made Her Thrice to paſſe with eaſe) To raiſe a ſtrength of Princes firſt, and then To raiſe Another ſtreng • h of Men. Moſt Fruitfull Queene! we boaſt Both Gif • s, And thus The Day was meant to You, the Joy to Us. Next to this Mother ſtands a Virgin Queene, Courting and Courted whereſoever ſeen; 17. Day, The beginning of Q. Elizabeths Raigne. The Peoples Love fi • ſt from Her Troubles grew; Her Raigne then made That Love her Due. That Comely Order, which did then adorne Bo • h Fabricks, now by Facion's torne; That Forme, by her allow'd, of Common Pray'r Is ſtyl'd vaine Beating of the Ayre. How doe they H • nour, how forſake Her Crowne! Her Times are ſtill Cry'd up, but Practis'd Downe. Reach laſt, the Whiteſt Stone the World yet knew, White as the ſoule, to whom the Day is due. 19. Day, The Birth of our gracious King CHARLES. Sonne of the Peacefull Iames, how is he bleſt With All His Bleſſings, but His Reſt! Though undeſerved Times call All His Pow'rs, And Troubles ſeaſon Other Hour's, Let this Day flow to Him as void of Care, As Feaſts to Gods, and Poets are: The Wiſh is Juſt, O Heavens! As our ſtrife Hath added to His Cares, adde Yee to His Life. And now, ſince His Large Heart with Hers is met, Whoſe Day the ſtarres on purpoſe neare His ſet. NOVEMBER ſhall to me for ever ſhine, Red in its Inke, Redder in Wine. And ſince the Third (which almoſt hath made ſhift T' Abſolve the Treaſon of the Fift) Cannot be well Remembred, or Forgot By Loyall Hearts, as if 'twere not; The Laſt extreame, againſt the Firſt wee'l bring: That gave us Many Tyrants, This a KING.
