WHereas by the common Law of England, it is High Treason to counterfeit the proper Coyne of this Kingdome, and is so declared by the Statute of the 25. of Edward the third: And whereas also the forging of any Coyne of any Forraigne Nation, made currant by Proclamation within this Kingdome, is made High Treason by a Statute made in the first yeare of Queene Mary: And whereas also the clipping, washing, rounding, or fileing of any the Moneyes currant in this Kingdome, for wicked lucre or gaines sake, is also made High Treason, by a Statute made in the fifth yeer of the Reign of Queene Elizabeth: And whereas the diminishing, falsifying, scaling or litening, of any the Money currant within this Kingdome, for wicked lucre or gaine sake, is also made High Treason by a Statute made in the eighteenth yeare of Queene Elizabeth: Notwithstanding all which severall Acts of Parliament, and the penalties therein comprized, many and severall persons within the Kingdome of England, and Dominion of Wales, and especially in the Northerne parts of this Kingdome, have of late yeares, and do daily offend and commit with great boldnesse, all and every the said offences, to the great losse of His Majesties Subjects, and the scandall and reproach of this Kingdome, in the Subjects Commerce and Traffique among themselves, and people of other Nations and Countries.

For remedy whereof, It is Ordered by the Lords in this present Parliament Assembled, That all Judges and Justices of the Assize, and Commissioners of Oyer and Terminer, and of generall Goale-Delivery, in their severall Circuits, do straitly and carefully put in execution all and every the said severall Acts of Parliament, against all offenders against the said Acts, or any breach thereof, according to the Lawes and Statutes of this Realme.

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).
