- summary: 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). In order not to lose time , and to make that Road the easier for those that shall follow them , they go first to Constantinople , where they will find Father Beauvollier my Companion of Mission , who will be the Bearer of the King's Letters to the Cha of Persia , and who will conduct this Apostolical Company to Trebesond , to Erzerum , to Irivan , and to Schamaki .

- summary: For , the present Emperour's Grand-father , laying hold of this Opportunity to ascend the Imperial Throne , knew so well how to foment these Quarrels , till he found means to reduce them , one after another , under his Obedience , not expecting even the Chief of the Family , who retained hitherto the Name of Emperour , and was forced by his own Subjects , to submit like the rest . But it ought to be observed here , that a good Bastonade or Whipping , is an extraordinary Punishment in China , and some other Eastern-Parts , which do not leave behind them any Stain of Infamy , as it is with us in Europe ; nothing being more frequently to be seen , than , that the Emperour's Servants , after they have been thus Chastised , are put in their former Stations again , and are admitted again even into the Emperour's presence , who looks upon them never the worse for this Reason , if they make an Amends for their past Misdemeanour by their future Good behaviour .
