Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford.
Re-processed by University of Nebraska-Lincoln and Northwestern, with changes to facilitate morpho-syntactic tagging. Gap elements of known extent have been transformed into placeholder characters or elements to simplify the filling in of gaps by user contributors.
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
town-Galants
Declaration
for
Women
and
Wine
.
Being
a
Description
of
a
Town-bred-Gentleman
,
with
all
his
Intregues
,
Pleasure
,
Company
,
Humor
,
and
Conversation
.
Gallants
from
faults
he
can
not
be
exempt
,
Who
doth
a
task
so
difficult
attempt
;
I
know
I
shall
not
,
hit
your
features
right
,
'T
is
hard
to
imitate
in
black
and
white
.
Some
Lines
were
drawn
by
a
more
skilful
hand
,
And
which
they
were
you
'l
quickly
understand
;
Excuse
me
therefore
if
I
do
you
wrong
,
I
did
but
make
a
Ballad
of
a
Song
.
To
a
most
Admirable
New
Tune
,
every
where
much
in
request
.
THe
Delights
of
the
Bottle
,
&
charms
of
good
wine
,
To
the
pow'r
&
the
pleasures
of
love
must
resign
,
Though
the
night
in
the
joys
of
good
drinking
be
past
,
The
debauches
but
still
the
next
morning
doth
last
;
But
loves
great
debauch
is
more
lasting
and
strong
,
For
that
often
lasts
a
man
all
his
life
long
.
Love
,
and
Wine
,
are
the
bonds
that
fasten
us
all
,
The
world
,
but
for
this
,
to
confusion
would
fall
;
Were
it
not
for
the
pleasures
of
love
and
good
wine
,
Man-kind
,
for
each
trifle
,
their
lives
would
resign
;
they
'd
not
value
dull
life
,
or
wou'd
live
without
thinking
Nor
Kings
rule
the
world
,
but
for
love
&
good
drinking
.
For
the
Drave
,
and
the
Dull
,
by
sobriety
curs'd
,
that
would
ne'r
take
a
glass
,
but
for
quenching
his
thirst
He
that
once
in
a
Month
takes
a
touch
of
the
Smock
,
And
poor
Nature
up-holds
with
a
bit
and
a
knock
What-ever
the
ignorant
Rabble
may
say
,
Tho'
he
breaths
till
a
hundred
,
he
lives
but
a
day
.
Let
the
Puritan
preach
against
wenches
,
and
drink
,
He
may
prate
out
his
Lungs
,
but
I
know
what
I
think
;
When
the
Lecture
is
done
,
he
'l
a
Sister
entice
;
Not
a
Letcher
in
Town
can
Out-do
him
at
Uice
;
Tho'
beneath
his
Religion
,
he
stifles
his
joys
,
And
becomes
a
Debauch
without
clamour
or
noise
.
'Twixt
the
Uices
of
both
,
little
difference
lyes
,
But
that
one
is
more
open
,
the
other
precize
:
Though
he
drinks
like
a
chick
,
with
his
eye-balls
lift
up
,
Yet
I
'le
warrant
thee
boy
,
he
shall
take
off
his
cup
:
His
Religious
debauch
,
does
the
gallants
out-match
,
For
a
Saint
is
his
Wench
,
and
a
Psalm
is
;
his
Catch
.
The
Second
Part
,
To
the
same
Tune
.
FOr
the
Lady
of
Uertue
,
&
Honour
so
strict
,
That
who
offers
her
Guinneys
deserves
to
be
kick'd
Who
with
sport
by
her self
,
doth
her
fancy
beguile
,
That
's
asham'd
of
a
jest
,
and
afraid
of
a
smile
;
May
she
lye
by
her self
,
till
she
wear
out
the
stairs
,
Going
down
to
her
Dinner
,
and
up
to
her
Prayers
.
But
let
us
that
have
Noble
and
generous
souls
,
No
method
observe
,
but
in
filling
our
bowls
;
Let
us
frolick
it
round
,
to
replenish
our
veins
,
And
with
notions
divine
,
to
enspire
our
brains
,
'T
is
a
way
that
's
Gentile
,
and
is
found
to
be
good
,
Both
to
quicken
the
Wit
,
and
enliven
the
blood
.
What
a
pleasure
it
is
to
see
bottles
before
us
,
With
the
women
among
us
to
make
up
the
Chorus
?
Now
a
Iest
,
now
a
Catch
,
now
a
Buss
,
now
a
Health
,
Till
our
pleasure
comes
on
by
insensible
stealth
,
And
when
grown
to
a
height
,
with
our
Girls
we
retire
,
By
a
brisker
enjoyment
,
to
slacken
the
fire
.
And
this
is
the
way
that
the
wiser
do
take
,
A
perpetual
motion
in
pleasure
to
make
:
With
a
flood
of
Obrian
,
we
fill
up
each
vein
,
All
the
Spirits
of
which
lov's
Atimbeck
must
drain
;
While
the
soberer
Sot
,
has
no
motion
of
blood
,
For
his
fancy
is
nothing
but
Puddle
and
Mud.
He
's
a
slave
to
his
soul
,
who
in
spight
of
his
sense
,
With
a
Clog
of
his
own
putting
on
can
dispence
,
For
he
Fetters
himself
,
when
at
large
he
might
rove
,
So
he
's
ty'd
from
the
sweets
of
good
drinking
and
love
,
Yet
he
's
satisfied
well
,
that
he
's
thought
to
be
wise
,
By
the
dull
and
the
foolish
;
I
mean
the
precise
.
For
my
part
whatever
the
consequence
be
,
To
my
will
and
my
fancy
,
I
le
always
be
free
,
They
are
mad
that
do
wilfully
run
upon
shelves
,
Since
dangers
,
and
troubles
,
will
come
of
themselves
;
For
whoever
desireth
to
live
like
a
man
,
He
must
be
without
trouble
,
as
long
as
he
can
.
And
these
are
the
pleasures
true
Gallants
do
find
,
To
which
if
you
are
not
,
you
should
be
enclin'd
,
If
you
follow
my
counsel
,
you
take
off
the
curse
,
And
if
you
do
not
,
we
are
never
the
worse
;
Yet
none
will
refuse
,
but
a
Begger
or
Cit
,
Who
to
car'on
the
humour
,
wants
Money
or
Wit.
