         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).

           is

           It

           because
           the

           or
           rather
           turned
           into

           Therefore

           those

           the

           it

           nay

           you

           Now

           you

           the

           This
           I
           confess

           the
           common
           Leiry

           but
           it
           affects
           me
           no
           more
           than
           the
           buzzing
           of
           Flies
           about
           my
           Nose

           The
           Objection
           consists
           of
           several
           Parts
           ,
           I
           will
           endeavour
           to
           answer

           the
           Reason
           of

           I
           Answer

           'T
           is
           to

           all
           such

           Oaks

           and
           the
           like
           ,
           grow
           ,
           is
           principally
           indued
           with
           such
           a
           quality

           is
           proper

           and
           therefore
           such

           so

           the
           Reason
           just
           now
           given
           ,
           as
           especially
           because
           the
           latter
           does
           not
           bare
           any
           Annual
           Crop

           the

           Branches

           it
           's
           enough
           ,
           whereas
           you
           expect
           much
           more
           from
           your
           Orchards
           ,
           and
           therefore
           must
           be
           at
           more
           pains
           with
           it
           .
           Sometimes
           you
           shall
           see
           in
           the
           Spring
           a
           Tree
           bravely
           blossomed
           ,
           and
           yet
           at
           Autumn
           no
           Fruit
           ;
           the
           Reason
           is
           commonly
           ascribed
           to
           Blasting
           or
           Frosts
           ;
           but
           I
           believe
           it
           may
           most
           times
           be
           referred
           
           to
           the
           Cause
           before-mentioned
           ;
           for
           in
           the
           early
           Spring
           the
           Sun
           giving
           every
           thing
           vigor
           ,
           the
           Soyl
           made
           shift
           to
           supply
           the
           Tree
           with
           Radical
           Moisture
           enough
           to
           make
           that
           show
           ,
           but
           not
           being
           able
           to
           continue
           its
           Recruits
           ,
           the
           poor
           Tree
           could
           not
           perform
           its
           Promise
           ,
           nor
           Nature
           accomplish
           its
           Intentions
           .
           But
           you
           'l
           say
           ,
           What
           Remedy
           for
           all
           this
           ?
           Can
           you
           shew
           a
           Natural
           way
           to

           render
           Trees

           and
           this

           The

           they
           serve
           to
           make
           up
           several
           sorts
           of
           Spoon-meats
           
           and
           Dishes
           ,
           no
           Body
           can
           deny
           ;
           and
           great
           improvement
           might
           be
           made
           of
           them
           by
           Persons
           that
           go
           long
           Voyages
           to
           Sea
           ,
           were
           it
           not
           that
           they
           have
           been
           told
           they
           will
           not
           keep
           .
           The
           truth
           is
           ,
           we
           find
           most
           of
           the
           Eggs
           that
           are
           brought
           from
           Scotland
           or
           Ireland
           are
           musty
           by
           that
           time
           they
           arrive
           here
           .
        
         
           But
           I
           must
           crave
           leave
           to
           say
           ,
           that
           it
           is
           not
           the
           time
           ,
           but
           the
           ill
           keeping
           of
           them
           that
           makes
           them
           naught
           ,
           I
           mean
           ,
           because
           they
           are
           crowded
           up
           in
           Holes
           and
           close
           Vessels
           ,
           and
           debarred
           from
           the
           Air
           ;
           for
           I
           have
           kept
           Eggs
           three
           ,
           four
           ,
           or
           five
           Months

           upon

           Shelf

           or
           the
           like

           in
           an
           open
           airy
           Room
           ,
           and
           proved
           as
           good
           as
           if
           but
           new
           laid

           and
           ,
           as
           I
           doubt
           not
           but
           any
           Body
           may
           do
           the
           like
           ,
           so
           I
           am
           apt
           to
           think
           ,
           they
           
           may
           hold

           if
           you
           afford
           them
           Air
           enough
           ,
           full
           as
           long
           ,
           nay
           perhaps
           for
           six
           or
           seven
           Months
           ,
           which
           might
           easily
           be
           done
           by
           contriving
           Wicker
           Baskets
           with
           several
           Stories

           Frames
           one
           above
           the
           other
           ,
           and
           open
           between
           ,
           on
           which
           the
           Eggs
           might
           lye
           one
           by
           one
           ,
           without
           danger
           of
           breaking
           ,
           and
           so
           might
           many
           times
           be
           exposed
           to
           the
           brisk
           Air
           on
           the
           Decks

           and
           at

           times
           set
           in

           Thus
           any
           Man

           when

           I
