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).

THE Uſurers Daughters Reply, OR, FLOROMELLAS Anſwer to PHAON. To a Pleaſant New Play-Houſe Tune.

〈♫〉

NOw young tempting Phaon you ſhall have your prey, Floramella does your mind fulfill, And though Gold could never force me to obey, freely I content unto your will: Were my Beauty under twenty Locks kept faſt, Love ſhould Pick them, and break through at laſt. While Dads find us miſſing, Kiſſing we will lye, Let them keep in Bondage Baggs on high, My Gentle Charming Phaon minutes ſhall not dye, Money ſhall not part my Love and I. II. Loves ſweet gentle Spring ſhall always freſh remain, and our Lips redouble Blows of eaſe, Phaon ne'r ſhall find from me a dull diſdain, for I'le teach how Maids ſhall men appeaſe: Love on Downie Pillows e'ry night ſhall reſt Upon Floramellas Tender Breaſt. While Old, &c. III. There's no Man ſo dull but has for us deſire, and with Bluſhing-Virgins would be bold, Oft attempting for to raiſe a wanton Fire, when they find us like the Winter Cold: And though Maidens hearts are like Unpoliſht-ſteel. By Mens art and Labour, ſmoother feel. While Old, &c. IV. Beauty was Created for the Lovers aid, elſe a Lovely Image does but prove, And no Liveleſs Statue, but a Lively Maid, the young brisk and bonny wantons Love: Though Pigmalions Miſtris made of Stone & Art, Once did Captivate her Makers heart. While Old, &c. V. Phaon ſhall lie ſafe in Floramellas arms, and poſſeſs that Bliſs that Gods admire, Circled in a thouſand gay and pleaſing Charms, that in Hermits might create a Fire: As fair Venus with Adonis us'd to toy, When ſhe once did Court that Beauteous Boy. While Dads, &c. VI. A long laſting Night to us will ſeem but ſhort, for the light-foot hours poſt away, Fly away too ſoon, whilſt Lovers make their Court, thus the Mad-Cap Night brings on the day: And the day would ſoon reveal our ſweet Delight, But the Stars will tell no Tales by night. While Dads, &c. VII. Thus thy Floramella on her Phaons Cheek, all the ſweet Delights of Love will taſt, There for Cupids Bow and arrows I will ſeek, and the winged Hours will not waſt: All my Coyneſs ſhall be melted, and be gone, Like the Mountain Snow with mid-day Sun. While Dads find us miſſing, Kiſſing we will lye, Let them keep in Bondage Baggs on high, My gentle Charming Phaon minutes ſhall not dye, Money ſhall not part my Love and I. FINIS.
