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
Dehortation
from
all
Sin
,
&c.
READER
,
IF
thou
hast
been
hitherto
carefull
to
lead
a
good
life
,
according
to
the
rule
of
Gods
Word
,
I
entreat
thee
to
persevere
for
the
Lords
sake
unto
the
end
,
that
thou
mayest
receive
the
end
of
thy
●…ope
even
the
salvation
of
thy
soul
;
which
upon
thy
continuance
in
well
doing
,
thou
shalt
most
certainly
accomplish
,
to
thy
unspeakable
comfort
:
but
if
thou
art
a
captive
to
the
false
,
and
deceitfull
pleasures
of
sin
,
as
I
have
been
;
hearken
unto
me
,
who
can
upon
too
too
long
an
experience
(
Lord
pardon
my
many
relapses
)
assure
thee
,
that
what
fair
appearances
soever
sin
presents
thee
with
in
its
first
approaches
,
it
will
leave
a
sting
behind
,
and
after
the
commission
of
every
sinfull
act
,
thou
wilt
most
certainly
be
so
far
remov'd
from
God
as
the
greatness
of
thy
sin
was
;
and
as
the
testimonies
of
a
good
conscience
decay
,
so
will
the
accusations
of
an
evil
one
come
in
their
room
,
till
insensibly
thou
fall
into
horror
and
despondencies
of
spirit
,
one
of
the
least
of
which
is
far
too
dear
a
price
for
all
the
pleasures
the
world
can
afford
thee
.
These
are
the
entrances
of
Hell
into
thy
soul
,
upon
the
withdrawings
of
God
and
spirituall
consolations
;
without
which
the
soul
languisheth
,
as
the
body
fainteth
upon
a
decay
of
the
animall
,
or
vitall
spirits
:
this
must
thou
look
for
after
the
continuance
in
any
known
,
and
presumptuous
sin
,
but
if
thou
find
it
not
,
thy
condition
is
dangerous
,
for
the
obduration
,
or
hardening
of
the
heart
is
the
threshold
of
Hell
:
look
quickly
then
and
seriously
into
thy
soul
;
labour
to
get
a
sight
of
thy
sins
in
the
Book
of
Conscience
,
whiles
they
may
be
blotted
out
;
pray
earnestly
to
God
for
a
true
sense
of
them
,
(
for
prayer
is
the
Key
of
Heaven
;
)
consider
often
of
Death
,
Judgement
,
Heaven
,
and
Hell
;
think
how
odious
the
sin
of
ingratitude
is
between
man
and
man
,
and
that
unthankfulness
for
the
Blood
of
Christ
is
the
highest
of
that
kinde
:
think
of
the
shortness
of
mans
life
,
and
the
great
business
is
to
be
done
in
that
little
life
:
that
thy
short
life
is
posting
to
an
end
;
O
the
folly
,
and
madness
of
sin
!
it
is
a
continuall
acting
against
reason
,
a
treasuring
up
of
wrath
with
the
God
of
all
power
,
a
providing
for
the
society
of
Devils
,
and
damned
souls
,
who
will
be
cursing
their
Maker
,
and
one
another
to
all
eternity
;
't
is
that
which
only
is
dishonourable
to
man
,
a
disturbance
to
Commonwealths
;
it
is
the
satisfaction
of
Devils
(
if
they
could
have
any
,
)
the
trouble
of
Angels
,
and
blessed
souls
,
nay
the
grieving
of
the
holy
Ghost
,
and
the
continuall
murthering
of
the
Son
of
God.
I
have
no
design
in
this
short
Discourse
,
but
the
Glory
of
God
,
the
conversion
of
souls
,
and
the
discharging
of
my
own
Conscience
,
by
testifying
to
as
many
as
I
can
,
the
detestation
of
my
former
life
,
that
so
the
ill
consequences
of
my
example
may
be
in
some
measure
repaired
by
this
publication
of
my self
:
and
therefore
wish
to
that
end
that
all
may
see
this
,
that
saw
my
debauchery
:
and
I
beseech
God
to
give
me
boldness
in
the
confession
of
my
faults
,
and
to
make
me
only
shamefull
of
recommitting
them
.
Above
all
things
I
advise
men
to
beware
of
immoderate
drinking
,
which
duls
the
understanding
,
and
makes
the
soul
impatient
of
contemplation
:
it
disposeth
vehemently
to
the
pleasures
of
sense
,
and
to
a
gigling
impertinent
mirth
;
it
precipitateth
to
the
acts
of
uncleanness
,
and
exciteth
all
the
Passions
,
exposing
men
to
many
and
daily
hazards
both
of
soul
,
and
body
,
and
rendring
them
unfit
for
any
employment
either
in
Ecclesiasticall
,
or
Civill
affairs
.
And
since
it
is
so
,
that
some
mens
bodies
by
their
temperament
do
require
strong
drinks
more
than
others
,
it
is
not
a
totall
abstinence
but
a
moderate
use
of
it
which
is
expected
:
for
which
end
I
think
it
a
very
good
rule
by
which
to
set
some
observable
bounds
to
drinking
;
that
men
would
drink
so
far
as
to
cherish
the
stomack
,
but
not
to
the
least
elevation
of
the
brain
;
and
the
stomack
is
satisfied
with
a
small
quantity
,
unless
a
man
lye
under
the
cheat
of
a
habit
:
but
when
the
spirits
of
the
wine
,
or
any
strong
liquor
,
begin
to
mount
up
to
the
brain
,
from
whence
the
soul
doth
principally
,
and
most
immediately
act
;
the
contemplative
power
begins
to
be
disquieted
,
and
unfixt
,
and
the
soul
now
to
fluctuating
,
as
it
were
,
and
wavering
in
her
motion
,
(
her
best
,
and
steady
operations
being
hindred
)
pleases
her self
with
being
conversant
about
outward
things
,
and
triviall
objects
,
and
lyes
more
expos'd
to
the
danger
of
frequent
temptations
:
this
which
I
speak
of
is
but
the
first
change
of
the
brain
,
when
it
is
altered
from
its
usuall
tone
and
composure
;
and
although
a
man
may
drink
to
this
pitch
,
and
yet
carry
civility
about
him
,
and
a
favourable
correspondence
with
men
,
because
his
tongue
doth
not
falter
,
neither
is
his
understanding
so
obscu'rd
,
as
to
fail
,
at
least
in
matters
of
common
converse
;
yet
this
person
who
hath
done
nothing
unacceptable
to
the
world
,
hath
so
chang'd
the
Scene
within
himself
,
that
he
is
now
more
at
the
command
of
his
sensuall
appetite
,
than
before
,
and
his
noble
faculties
begin
to
lean
towards
the
world
,
and
stagger
in
the
sight
of
God
,
though
his
legs
stand
firm
before
the
eyes
of
them
that
see
him
:
I
appeal
to
the
consciences
of
any
such
plausible
drinkers
,
whether
they
do
not
find
themselves
more
cold
in
acts
of
devotion
,
more
fond
of
outward
pleasures
,
more
affected
with
the
thoughts
of
temporall
honours
,
and
the
favour
of
great
men
,
more
than
the
love
of
Jesus
.
Whether
the
contemplation
of
eternity
and
the
estate
of
their
souls
in
reference
to
that
being
,
doth
so
well
relish
with
them
at
that
time
?
If
they
did
so
,
why
do
they
not
wave
a
Stage-play
,
and
go
to
publick
prayers
,
which
are
at
that
time
?
Why
,
instead
of
going
to
a
wrangling
Gaming-house
,
do
they
not
study
the
game
of
Christianity
,
that
they
may
beat
that
experienc'd
Gamester
the
Devil
,
and
win
their
souls
,
which
lye
continually
at
stake
,
and
are
in
eminent
danger
of
being
lost
?
What
a
sad
thing
is
it
that
so
noble
a
creature
as
man
,
should
rest
in
,
and
be
contented
with
trifles
,
for
whom
are
prepar'd
the
glories
of
eternity
,
if
here
he
will
take
upon
him
the
easie
yoke
,
and
light
burden
of
Christ
?
Now
although
many
men
that
drink
not
,
may
,
and
do
often
these
things
,
and
far
worse
;
yet
drink
betrays
them
more
easily
to
vanities
,
and
idle
pastimes
:
therefore
be
carefull
to
avoid
this
degree
of
drinking
,
and
thou
wilt
then
be
secure
from
the
scandalous
sin
of
visible
drunkenness
,
which
is
the
beastly
consummation
of
the
former
:
I
do
not
speak
this
to
perswade
men
from
society
,
and
chearfulness
;
as
if
Religion
,
and
mirth
were
things
inconsistent
;
since
I
know
that
true
mirth
is
found
no
where
else
:
but
we
do
for
the
most
part
mistake
mirth
the
most
of
any
thing
:
accounting
that
it
consists
in
laughter
only
;
whereas
properly
a
man
may
be
most
truly
merry
when
he
laugheth
least
:
for
none
laugh
more
than
Ideots
,
and
men
of
weak
understanding
,
and
sensualists
;
while
men
advanc'd
in
knowledge
,
and
quieted
in
mind
,
by
serious
and
due
reflections
on
themselves
,
do
it
but
seldome
:
but
none
will
deny
but
the
latter
sort
,
have
the
greater
cause
for
mirth
,
and
consequently
must
needs
be
more
truly
merry
;
for
true
mirth
is
a
complacency
of
the
mind
,
arising
from
the
apprehension
of
our
personall
happiness
;
yet
while
we
are
in
the
body
,
laughter
is
naturall
,
and
if
it
be
kept
within
its
bounds
,
and
plac't
upon
right
subjects
,
is
both
allowable
,
and
conducing
to
health
;
but
is
not
tyed
to
the
Glass
,
or
Bowl
:
This
caution
against
drinking
,
concerns
those
chiefly
whose
bodies
require
strong
drinks
in
some
small
proportion
,
(
for
none
do
much
)
since
those
who
are
of
another
temperament
,
will
abstain
without
any
mans
counsell
,
or
any
vertue
of
their
own
,
which
is
only
seen
where
there
are
propensities
to
the
contrary
;
though
some
men
of
this
sort
may
contract
habits
to
themselves
,
contrary
to
the
first
requisites
of
nature
.
I
cannot
methinks
disswade
men
enough
from
this
sin
,
because
I
have
so
often
drawn
others
into
it
,
and
therefore
hope
to
make
some
reparation
for
the
spirituall
hurt
I
may
have
done
them
who
are
yet
living
,
whiles
for
those
of
my
associates
who
are
departed
this
life
,
I
hope
the
mercies
of
God
did
overtake
them
▪
and
I
wish
from
my
soul
that
the
spirituall
dangers
which
I
have
experimented
,
and
do
know
to
be
in
that
which
we
call
good
fellowship
,
or
a
chirping
Cup
(
two
seducing
terms
)
and
the
great
scandall
,
besides
the
sin
it self
,
which
is
in
staggering
drunkenness
,
may
have
such
an
influence
upon
those
who
have
no
account
to
make
for
any
thing
that
they
have
yet
done
as
to
this
sin
,
that
they
may
never
commit
it
;
and
for
those
who
have
,
and
do
yet
continue
in
it
,
that
considering
the
great
dangers
attending
upon
it
,
which
(
though
now
drown'd
in
the
lavours
of
the
Grape
)
will
one
day
rise
up
and
shew
themselves
to
their
terrour
,
they
may
start
from
it
with
as
terrible
apprehensions
,
while
they
may
prevent
the
danger
,
as
the
reprobate
will
do
at
Hell
when
time
is
past
,
and
he
cannot
escape
it
.
For
my
own
particular
,
I
have
habituated
my self
to
this
vice
from
my
youth
,
and
of
later
years
have
continued
in
it
upon
a
misapprehension
,
that
the
predominancy
of
my
temperament
being
Melancholy
,
which
is
cold
,
and
dry
,
it
did
require
the
supply
of
some
accidentall
heat
to
correct
it
:
but
I
do
now
think
I
have
mistaken
my self
all
this
while
,
since
looking
back
upon
my
beginning
,
I
do
not
find
I
was
so
when
I
was
under
tutelage
;
and
therefore
do
impute
it
to
a
habit
contracted
since
,
and
some
intervening
causes
of
discontent
:
but
since
it
is
so
easie
a
thing
to
be
cheated
into
an
ill
custome
,
and
so
dangerous
to
be
under
it
,
it
behoves
us
to
be
very
vigilant
against
this
adversary
,
which
comes
in
the
shape
of
nature
,
and
hath
such
great
advantages
upon
us
.
Custome
hath
an
interest
in
the
actions
of
the
whole
world
;
in
good
men
it
disposeth
them
to
goodness
,
though
the
first
principle
that
moves
in
them
is
a
principle
of
Grace
;
but
when
the
sanctified
soul
hath
made
some
progress
in
a
good
life
,
custome
comes
in
,
and
promotes
it
,
and
facilitates
our
perseverance
:
in
bad
men
likewise
it
disposeth
,
and
enclines
them
the
more
strongly
to
vice
;
and
you
shall
finde
,
that
men
who
accustome
themselves
to
a
constant
afternoons-draught
in
the
Week
dayes
,
seldomest
go
to
an
afternoons
Sermon
upon
the
Sunday
,
if
they
go
at
all
;
because
the
ill
habit
prevails
so
strongly
,
that
the
vitiated
stomack
must
have
its
false
wants
supplied
,
though
the
soul
miss
of
her
spirituall
repast
.
To
prevent
the
contracting
of
this
habit
upon
such
as
are
yet
free
,
and
to
set
those
at
liberty
who
are
enslav'd
by
it
,
I
shall
propose
this
generall
remedy
;
Be
alwaies
employ'd
in
lawfull
exercises
:
It
is
an
Epidemicall
disease
amongst
the
Nobility
and
Gentry
of
this
Nation
,
to
be
sick
of
their
time
;
which
is
such
a
burden
to
them
,
that
being
tir'd
with
the
tediousness
of
the
day
,
they
must
either
drink
or
trifle
it
away
to
avoid
a
surfeit
;
this
as
it
is
a
disparagement
to
their
judgements
,
so
it
is
an
exceeding
detriment
to
their
souls
;
for
since
man
hath
a
soul
which
must
be
eternally
sav'd
or
damn'd
,
he
is
a
fool
that
thinks
he
wants
employment
,
and
he
doth
every
minute
draw
neerer
to
the
ruin
of
himself
;
therefore
let
none
of
us
ever
pretend
that
we
want
business
:
If
I
have
no
accounts
to
take
concerning
my
estate
;
no
Law-suits
to
follow
;
though
I
am
not
a
Magistrate
,
or
a
Divine
,
though
I
have
no
Office
at
Court
,
though
I
have
the
Gout
and
cannot
walk
;
though
I
am
blind
,
or
shut
up
in
a
dungeon
from
conversing
either
with
men
or
Books
,
or
whatsoever
can
befall
me
,
yet
still
I
have
a
soul
which
is
in
her
militant
estate
,
and
in
the
worst
of
these
conditions
I
can
do
acts
of
repentance
,
reflecting
with
sorrow
and
detestation
upon
my
sins
past
,
and
renewing
my
purposes
of
amendment
:
I
can
meditate
upon
Gods
Mercies
and
all
his
Attributes
;
I
can
perform
acts
of
Praise
to
him
:
and
for
those
publike
actions
which
I
cannot
do
if
I
am
denied
the
liberty
of
my
body
,
and
the
society
of
men
,
yet
I
can
have
them
in
voto
,
and
desiring
to
do
what
I
am
denied
,
and
so
I
can
keep
on
my
journey
to
Heaven
,
though
I
lie
sheckel'd
in
a
dungeon
.
But
indeed
employment
is
as
generally
mistaken
as
mirth
;
for
most
men
think
they
want
it
,
if
their
time
be
not
spent
in
some
bodily
exercise
,
or
upon
some
slight
or
common
subject
;
but
for
meditation
upon
God
and
the
soul
,
the
concernments
of
it
,
that
's
accounted
a
symptome
of
Melancholly
,
and
reading
,
writing
,
or
discoursing
of
any
thing
that
is
serious
,
or
profitable
,
which
comes
the
neerest
to
it
.
A
great
cause
of
this
evil
ariseth
,
either
from
the
carelesness
of
Parents
in
not
giving
their
Children
a
literate
education
,
or
their
own
neglect
of
improving
it
,
when
they
are
at
liberty
from
their
Tutors
,
or
Parents
,
or
whoever
had
the
charge
of
them
:
for
as
the
principles
of
Learning
and
Knowledge
do
wear
out
,
so
the
delight
in
superficiall
things
grows
more
strong
and
prevalent
;
because
the
knowledge
of
any
one
thing
,
and
the
delight
in
it
,
alwayes
go
,
and
come
together
;
since
we
cannot
take
pleasure
in
any
thing
which
we
are
ignorant
of
:
therefore
Hawking
,
Hunting
,
Horse-matches
,
Gaming
,
Stage-plays
,
and
the
like
,
are
made
the
business
of
our
time
,
in
which
our
delights
do
terminate
,
which
should
only
be
us'd
to
unbend
the
mind
,
and
give
it
relief
after
serious
employments
;
and
to
exercise
the
body
for
the
preservation
of
health
,
being
altogether
subordinate
to
greater
ends
;
and
this
is
one
reason
why
Taverns
are
so
much
frequented
;
because
Libraryes
are
out
of
request
,
and
holy
,
learned
,
or
serious
communications
do
not
relish
with
us
:
but
this
is
not
sufficient
to
excuse
them
:
for
though
men
either
want
education
,
or
stifle
it
,
yet
they
cannot
extinguish
reason
,
and
lose
the
principles
of
Religion
,
which
they
have
in
their
Catechismes
,
in
their
Bibles
,
and
by
Preaching
;
and
therefore
upon
that
account
it
is
expected
by
God
,
that
they
yeeld
obedience
to
him
proportionably
to
this
common
,
and
generall
Knowledge
;
which
if
any
man
fails
to
do
,
want
of
education
will
not
be
a
sufficient
plea
,
because
it
will
be
found
to
be
an
act
of
his
will
,
running
contrary
to
these
degrees
of
Knowledge
:
if
any
man
shall
say
at
the
Tribunal
of
Christ
,
that
he
spent
his
time
in
drinking
,
and
idle
pastimes
,
because
he
was
not
brought
up
to
Learning
,
what
will
that
avail
him
,
who
did
live
under
the
means
of
Grace
,
which
were
sufficient
for
his
salvation
?
for
though
he
had
no
knowledge
in
Tongues
,
and
Sciences
,
yet
he
knew
the
Commandements
of
God
,
and
could
not
plead
ignorance
in
presumptuous
sins
;
and
though
he
that
cannot
read
and
understand
Greek
,
or
Latin
,
yet
if
he
can
read
English
,
let
him
spend
a
part
of
his
time
in
reading
the
Bible
,
and
other
good
Books
,
and
though
he
cannot
discourse
in
Naturall
or
Morall
Philosophy
,
or
in
the
Metaphysicks
,
nor
much
in
practicall
Divinity
,
yet
let
him
speak
within
the
limits
of
his
knowledge
,
let
him
reprove
common
sins
,
and
give
all
encouragement
to
the
generals
of
a
holy
life
,
both
by
word
and
example
:
and
if
he
be
sooner
tir'd
with
discourse
,
than
men
of
greater
knowledge
would
be
;
then
let
him
betake
himself
(
as
I
advis'd
before
)
to
some
honest
divertisements
;
but
not
to
any
thing
that
hath
the
least
appearance
of
evil
in
it
;
the
result
of
this
is
,
that
whether
a
man
be
literate
,
or
illiterate
,
he
may
serve
God
:
and
those
Gentlemen
of
our
Nation
that
are
not
members
of
the
Commonwealth
of
Learning
,
may
yet
be
members
of
the
Mysticall
Body
of
Christ
:
and
though
their
delight
in
great
Studies
,
in
Polemicall
discourses
and
Meditations
are
lost
,
proportionably
to
the
decay
of
their
Knowledge
,
yet
their
time
may
be
the
more
spent
in
the
Agenda
of
Religion
,
and
they
may
be
allow'd
a
more
frequent
use
of
lawfull
recreations
,
but
not
of
drinking
though
but
to
good-fellowship
;
which
though
the
word
sounds
finely
,
a
man
can
hardly
do
it
and
secure
his
innocence
:
but
since
the
remedy
of
continuall
employment
is
not
sufficient
for
an
accustomed
drinker
,
he
must
unravell
the
habit
by
little
and
little
,
to
which
the
shunning
of
idleness
will
very
much
help
him
.
To
conclude
,
Let
us
be
carefull
to
resist
all
the
species
and
kindes
of
sin
whatsoever
,
for
it
is
only
sin
which
can
deprive
us
of
the
favour
of
God
,
which
if
once
we
are
excluded
from
,
we
are
eternally
lost
;
but
especially
the
sin
of
Drinking
,
which
is
the
unhappy
Parent
of
all
other
sins
:
and
therefore
the
more
carefully
to
be
withstood
;
which
care
if
this
short
Admonition
may
but
stir
up
in
one
soul
,
I
should
more
rejoyce
to
know
than
to
have
the
greatest
honour
of
the
Nation
confer'd
upon
me
.
Now
to
God
the
Father
,
God
the
Son
,
and
God
the
holy
Ghost
,
be
all
honour
,
glory
,
praise
and
adoration
,
given
by
me
,
and
by
all
his
creatures
,
from
hence
forth
to
all
eternity
.
Amen
.
FINIS
