         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).

           it

           matter
           of
           Excommunication

           But
           notwithstanding
           all
           the
           caution
           and
           vigilance
           us'd

           this
           particular
           ,
           yet
           cannot
           some
           abuses
           be
           prevented
           ;
           and
           people
           come
           to
           know
           what
           passes
           there
           .
           This
           happens
           sometimes
           by
           the
           way
           of

           which
           they
           find
           means
           to
           get
           in
           ,
           either
           by
           the
           connivance
           of
           some
           Prelates
           ,
           who
           are
           unwilling
           to
           disoblige
           the
           Crowns
           and
           Princes

           whose
           Patrizans
           they
           are
           ,
           as
           they
           think
           they
           should
           do
           ,
           by
           obstructing

           Sometimes
           also
           this
           is
           attributed
           to
           the
           Cardinals
           themselves
           ,
           who
           do
           it
           to
           promote
           their
           different
           engagements
           and
           affections
           ,
           or
           to
           prevent
           prejudicing
           their
           hopes
           ,
           or
           that
           their
           precautions
           are
           really
           eluded
           .

           second
           circumstance

           have
           absolutely
           agreed
           upon
