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).

A
WORD
of
ADVICE
TO
THE
Two
New
Sheriffs
OF
LONDON
.
NOw
all
the
bussel's
over
'bout
the
choice
Of
North
and
Rich
,
Papillion
and
Duboise
,
Some
cryd
no
North
,
and
many
had
an
itch
To
see
some
other
chosen
and
not
Rich
,
Many
a
Whigg
did
gape
with
his
loud
voice
,
And
gave
his
single
Vote
for
their
Duboise
;
And
I
believe
there
was
near
half
a
Million
,
Within
the
City
voted
for
Papillion
,
And
as
to
you
ingenious
Mr.
North
,
My
Lord
Mayors
drinking
only
brought
you
forth
;
Some
talk'd
as
if
you
came
in
at
th'
Back
door
,
But
you
were
introduc'd
by
Sir
Iohn
Moor
;
Come
in
what
Way
you
will
it
must
be
born
,
For
now
we
find
your
Worships
both
are
sworn
.
And
now
with
all
my
heart
I
wish
you
joy
,
Hoping
the
Whiggish
Vices
you
'l
destroy
,
Where
vertue
is
,
Oh
Sirs
!
let
that
alone
,
Present
it
sacred
to
Great
Brittains
Throne
,
Let
that
be
gently
dealt
with
,
do
't
no
harm
,
With
Pike
,
pickt
Juries
,
or
with
strength
of
Arm
,
Encourage
vertue
in
the
open
Street
,
And
let
us
see
that
you
are
glad
to
see
't
,
Then
wee
'l
adore
you
like
two
petty
Gods
,
And
Whiggs
and
you
will
be
no
more
at
odds
,
Wee
'l
strive
with
all
our
might
to
tell
your
Glory
,
If
you
will
stay
the
vice
of
Whigg
and
Tory
:
The
number
of
their
Sins
(
I
fear
)
increase
,
And
that
's
the
chief
disturbance
of
our
Peace
;
We
pray
you
therefore
wheresoe're
you
find
them
,
Give
them
no
quarter
,
but
with
Milstones
grind
them
,
Be
as
severe
to
Sin
as
you
think
fit
,
But
as
to
vertue
meddle
not
with
it
;
If
any
should
be
without
cause
opprest
,
Oh
ease
their
griefs
,
and
thus
you
may
be
blest
,
Encourage
good
men
,
and
correct
the
bad
,
The
City
then
will
be
no
longer
sad
,
Suppress
the
Cities
Sins
,
and
you
'l
do
well
,
Suppressing
vertue
brings
men
unto
Hell
;
Meetings
have
been
disturb'd
too
oft
by
those
That
to
a
Bawdy-house
were
never
Foes
:
Thus
Preaching
seems
a
Crime
,
and
Whoreing
none
,
Poor
Mr.
Hilton
,
Oh!
let
him
alone
,
He
's
a
pure
harmless
Youth
and
out
of
pity
,
Disturbs
the
Meeting-houses
in
the
City
,
I
think
indeed
I
do
not
miss
my
mark
,
If
I
declare
that
he
is
in
the
dark
,
His
time
were
better
spent
in
Whetstones-Park
.
There
let
Informers
work
and
spend
their
time
,
To
break
their
Meetings
up
can
be
no
Crime
;
But
Whores
may
swear
rather
then
Christians
Pray
,
Informers
will
have
large
accounts
to
pay
,
But
like
the
Welch-man
they
put
off
that
day
:
Let
Hur
alone
till
that
day
come
cry
they
,
That
day
will
come
,
and
woe
woe
be
too
those
,
That
are
the
Strumpets
friends
and
Christians
foes
,
Woe
be
to
to
those
I
say
,
the
time
draws
near
,
In
which
they
must
expect
to
pay
for
't
dear
.
But
go
Informing
Villains
from
my
Pen
,
As
you
Inform
you
are
the
worst
of
men
,
Inform
where
Papists
are
,
there
are
great
store
,
Inform
the
Justices
of
ev'ry
Whore
,
Inform
against
your
fellow
Rogues
that
swear
,
And
wallow
,
like
to
Swine
,
in
Wine
and
Bear
;
Inform
against
the
Vices
of
the
Age
,
There
we
will
give
you
leave
to
shew
your
rage
,
Let
them
alone
that
Worship
God
with
fear
,
Or
let
me
tell
you
,
you
will
pay
for
't
dear
;
If
in
their
Meetings
they
disturb
the
Peace
,
I
would
not
have
Informers
then
to
cease
,
Then
be
severe
,
and
Plague
them
as
you
please
,
Then
give
them
neither
countenance
nor
ease
;
But
if
they
do
no
ill
,
why
so
severe
?
Surely
thou
tak'st
the
wrong
Sow
by
the
ear
.
Sweet
Sir
Informer
if
they
preach
but
Treason
,
Then
hang
them
up
indeed
,
it
is
but
reason
,
But
it
's
to
hard
to
suffer
,
or
to
swing
,
For
meeting
but
to
pray
for
our
good
King
;
They
Preach
down
sin
,
and
pray
for
Reformation
,
Would
there
were
no
worse
Subjects
in
the
Nation
.
Increase
the
number
Lord
of
such
good
men
,
Now
where
there
is
but
one
,
do
thou
raise
ten
:
And
we
shall
think
it
a
most
Blessed
change
,
To
give
us
these
,
and
take
away
Le'
Strange
