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 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).

AND His Royl Consort QUEEN MARY . By John Phillips Gent. Student of Lincoln's-Inn . AT last the early Birds with tunfuell Lays Proclaim'd the solemn , welcomest of Days , But Phoebus rose not yet , since Charles was gone , With whom he sate , he kept his Mourning on : ( Charles ! Heaven's glad Burthen now , and justest Pride , Who sits Enthron'd next his Great Father's side . ) And now the weeping Skies with Clouds o'erspread , Paid its last Tribute to the Royal Dead , The Sun broke out with an unusual Ray , And with new Beams bedect the smiling Day ; He saw th' incircled Heads , and darting down Blest with a Lambent heat the Dazling Crown . He saw the Pomp , and Blushing did confess In adding Lustre , He receiv'd no less . The weighty Emblem of a Crown more bright Lifts the Great Bearer higher from our sight ; Adds an Eighth Genius to the brighter Heav'n , But Fixst , not wandring as the other Sev'n . Such is his Valour , and his vast Success , You 'd think him more a Man , were they but less ; But onely Gods ( like Mighty JAMES ) are They Who know no Limits to their Earthly sway . But since to paint Perfection we cant ' raise Our Thoughts to equal height , he 's less'ned by our Praise : On then , Great Prince ; with one united Ray The Sun and you together Rule the Day ; While your Fair Consort dect with Paler Light Successively with Phoebe Rules the Night . Blest with such rich Advantages as these A JAMES and MARY , Victory and Peace ; How Happy Albion do'st thou seem to be ! Thy Fate is to be envied ev'n by Thee . FINIS . LONDON , Printed for J. Walthoe at the Black Lion in Chancery Lane , over against Lincoln's-Inn .
