         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).

           The
           Publike
           is
           most
           honorable

           Neither

           the
           Priuate
           discommendable
           ,
           considering
           it
           giueth
           satisfaction
           or

           sufficiencie
           to
           liue
           well
           and
           happily
           according
           to
           the
           humor
           of
           the
           world
           ,
           whereby
           it
           may
           be
           apparant
           that
           the
           motiues
           and
           ends
           of

           Moreouer

           seeing
           it
           may
           be
           doubted
           whether
           all

           Now
           the

           This
           is
           a
           harde
           thing

           I

           the
           middle
           age

           For
           ,
           the
           nonage
           of
           men
           is
           vncapable

           comprehend
           things
           important
           ,
           for
           the
           State
           of
           which
           they

           with
           many
           turbulent
           affections
           that

           quiet
           ingenious
           vnderstādings
           ,

           Wherefore
           the
           Divine
           Plato
           by
           implication
           forbade
           men

           kind

           yeares

           By

           The

           For

           this
           function
           and
           vocation

           it
           being
           singularly
           dedicated

           Then
           of

           two
           speciall
           .
           The
           generall
           are
           either

           But
           in
           case
           such
           Councels
           bee
           not
           compounded
           of

           pretence
           must
           cease

           So
           is
           it

           this
           pretense

           The
           two

           such
           an

           Secondly

           there
           is
           no
