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).

One Warning more to the Hypocrites of this GENERATION FRIENDS,

YEt once more am I to • ppear before you a Reprover, in the Name of the Lord, who is greatly provoked to Jealouſie, by your growing ſtill worſe and worſe in the Fumace under your Trials and Affictions.

Oh! who doth lay to • he art? who doth conſider, who doth underſtand the work of this Day? Oh! my bowels, my bowels! my Lam •• t • tions, my Diſtreſſes what they have been and are in the behalf of this Generation of Hypocritical Profeſſor, who grow ſtill worſe? So that in the Name and Dread and Authority of the Living and Eternal God, I am to Declare unto you, and yet once more to Warn you, That the dreadful Cup of Vengeance that you are to drink, and muſt drink, and cannot eſcape, can not be meaſured by any thing that is paſt. You are gazing after Changes. As you grow worſe and worſe by all the Changes and Revolutions your eyes have ſeen, and your ears have heard of; So the Changes that ſhall be, ſhall be ſtill worſe and worſe for you. Ye who are ſeated in Unrighteouſneſs, who have a Lie in your right hand, in whom the love of the Earth, and Vanity, and the ſenſual ſpirit is ſo ſtrong, that after your Lovers ye will go; your minds abroad after a dead Carcaſs of Words, of Forms, of Ordinances (as you call them) and all your ſcope, expectations and deſires, to have theſe reſtored to you and your diſcontents, grudgings and murmurings, becauſe the • are not Oh! the dreadful Day of Vengeance, the dreadful Day of Vengeance that yet abides ſuch, whoſe hopes whoſe deſires, whoſe expectations are after any thing as a Covering, as Salvation, But the Life, the Spirit of Righteouſneſs, to flow down as a mighty ſtream, So as to burn up, lay naked and open, make deſolate all fleſh.

This is the Day of God, the deſirable bleſſed Day; and this is come, and coming yet more and more abundantly in Power and great Glory! But Wo to the Hypocrite, to the mind that ſaies and does not, filled with ſwelling words and expectatious; and the Life, the Seed of Righteouſneſs, that wherein is the Reſtauration of all things, opppreſſed, burdened in their particulars, above their meaſures exalted; Such ſhall be, ſhall be abundantly filled with the fruit of their own way. Oh! that all herein concerned could read their name, and hear and fear, and conſider, and forbear, ere it be too late, the day of their Viſitation paſt over, night come on wherein none, can work; their Judgment ſealed, God ceaſed to be a Reprover in them, till the Day of Vengeance overtake as a Whirlwind; as in the Name, and Dread, and Power of the living and Eternal God I do declare, it ſhall this hypocritical Generation of Profeſſors, of all Ranks, Forms, Sorts and Sizes, in a way can not be meaſured by any thing that is yet paſt.

This is the Word of the Lord God to you, whether ye Will yet hear or forbear.

7th of the 10th month, 63. J. Suintoune.

You who ſpeak of a Deliverance, and loo •… for a day of Deliverance, Are you delivered from the Bondage of Corruption? Then are you free ••… eed Then ye need not look out for a Day of Deliverance, You know the Liberty of the Sons of God; Then ye know the Patien • e, ye know the Faith that makes not haſte. Ye know the Will of God, and know it to be your place to lie d • wn in it as to whatſoever he ſhall permit man, or men, to do unto you: Oh Friends, this is the Deliverance to be minded, to be delivered from the power of the Evil One within yau, not to come under me evil Spirit at home nor abroad, to be preſerved faithful in an evil day, Do ye believe God, the juſt holy God that rules in Heaven and Earth And do you think be will deliver you out of the hands of unreaſonable men, when ye provoke him to Jealouſie through your Treachery and Rebellions? And ſhall you be delivered while you become worſe and worſe Come to minde the Inward Deliverance, the Inward Liberty. Freedom, to have a Conſcience in all things clear and free towards God and man: Then ſhall you witneſs the Deliverance, You ſhall be more than Conquerors, overcome your Enemies with Patience with Love, with Forgiveneſs, with ſeeking their Good; and yet bear witneſs againſt their evil deeds and ſpirit in not coming under in a tittle, yeelding in one hoof or hand • readth; but the more oppreſt, the ſtiffer, bold and val 〈…〉 couragious in following the Lord, in what he doth or muſt require of you, in the fear and dread of the living God ſtanding over the fear of Man. Were not this Deliverance enough, to be preſerved faithful? Yea, and this is the Deliverance, and not another, to be brought here, and to be pr 〈…〉 ved here, to be minded by all the ſingle-hearted. As for he hope; the expectation of the Hypocrite, it ſhall periſh at noon day.

One of the Songs of Zion.

SIng, O Heavens and be aſtoniſhed O Earth! for the Lord God is come down to Judgment: Therefore, O ye Inhabitants of the Earth, mourn; for the day of Your Judgment is come, wherein nothing ca •• over, but that of the Spirit. Wo, Wo, Wo to the mind that is joyned to any other Covering but this alone: All fleſh gather paleneſs, for the Terrible Judge or the whole Earth is come, from whom nothing can be hid. Oh! ſing and rejoyce, O Heavens, ye Lambs and Little ones, whoſe Life and Salvation, and Covering, the Lord God alone is: He will, he will appear to your Joy, and to the Confuſion, the utter-Confuſion and Deſolation, and deſolating of all that love not his Appearance, but gainſay it, and contradict it, Oh! where will you ſtand? whither will • e run, w •• re will you find a Covering, that will not be 〈◊〉 narrow 〈…〉 this Day, that is for the making deſolate all fleſh? and is •••• efore therefore, even therefore, the Bleſſed; in which, and becauſe of which, all the ſingle-hearted ſhall rejoyce, and ſhout for, joy and gladneſs of heart; becauſe, even becauſe the Lord God alone, and none beſides him, is, or ſhall be exalted in the Day that is come and coming with Power and great Glory, to the mind that ſeeks its Habitation, its Covering, its Salvation, its Redemption in God alone; to be covered with the Light that makes manifeſt the deeds of Darkneſs, from which nothing can be hid. This is the Salvation, the Covering of the Children of the Day; Glory, Glory, Glory for ever to the Lamb, the Light, the Covering, the Salvation, the Saviour. This is the Day that is come, for which many have waited, and many, many have rejoyced in it, ſeeing it afar off, This is the Day that makes all odds even, and anſwers all, and brings into the Perfect Reſt and Peace, Satisfaction and Contentment; while the joy, the expectation of the Hypocrite periſheth at noon day.
