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).

To
the
Kings
most
Excellent
Majesty
.
The
humble
Address
of
the
Magistrates
and
Council
of
Your
City
of
Glasgow
in
Scotland
,
for
themselves
,
and
in
name
of
the
Inhabitants
.
AS
we
Your
Majesties
most
Dutiful
and
Loyal
Subjects
,
could
not
but
in
a
very
special
manner
,
have
a
deep
sense
of
,
and
be
much
afflicted
for
the
inexpressible
loss
of
our
late
Gracious
Monarch
,
by
whose
Care
and
Protection
,
we
were
so
well
Defended
from
the
Dangers
that
did
constantly
Threaten
us
from
Disorderly
Neighbours
,
for
which
loss
,
each
of
Your
Majesties
Subjects
is
truly
grieved
;
so
this
grateful
and
decent
Sorrow
does
not
at
all
hinder
us
from
blessing
Almighty
God
,
and
having
our
Hearts
filled
with
sincere
Joy
,
for
Your
Sacred
Majesties
Succession
to
the
Throne
of
your
Royal
Ancestors
,
by
by
whom
we
and
our
Predecessors
have
been
so
long
Protected
,
and
from
whose
extraordinary
Experience
,
as
well
as
Wisdom
and
Courage
;
We
have
just
reason
to
expect
that
this
Kingdom
will
be
again
reduced
to
Quiet
and
Happiness
;
And
the
Trade
by
which
this
Place
is
only
Supported
,
will
be
secured
,
and
encouraged
by
that
extraordinary
Skill
which
Your
Sacred
Majesty
has
in
Affairs
of
that
Nature
;
In
return
of
all
which
,
we
shall
endeavour
with
Hearts
far
more
Loyal
than
any
Professions
we
can
make
,
not
only
to
concur
our selves
in
our
own
Stations
,
in
Your
Majesties
Service
but
be
very
Exemplary
to
others
,
in
spight
of
all
Dangers
and
Oppositions
;
though
we
have
very
good
reason
to
hope
that
none
of
those
will
threaten
Your
Majesties
peaceable
Reign
,
which
that
i●
may
be
as
happy
as
Your
Majesties
great
Virtues
deserve
,
and
as
our
sincere
Loyalty
should
inspire
us
to
wish
,
shall
be
the
constant
and
ardent
Prayers
of
May
it
please
Your
Sacred
Majesty
,
Your
Majesties
most
humble
,
most
Faithful
,
and
most
,
Dutiful
Subjects
.
