Reproduction of original in the Cambridge University Library. Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford.

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).

Edit . IV. 1696. SO long as the Son is within the Civil Power of his Father , so long as he lives in his House , is subject to his Command , is nourish'd by his Father's Charge , hath no distinct Rights of his own , he is in his Father's Possession , and to be reckoned by his Measures . In the Law of the Twelve Tables it was written , Sacra privata perpetua manento , that the Private Religion of a Family should not be alter'd : which CICERO Lib. 2. de Legibus expounds to mean , That all those to whom the Care of the Father of the Family did appertain , were tied to the Celebration of the same Rites ; and the Lawyers say , that Filii sunt in Sacris Parentum , dum sunt in eorum potestate ; Children are within the Holy Rites of their Parents , while they are in their Power . The Father's Commands are exacted before the Laws of GOD or PRINCES do require Obedience ; because the Government of Children is like the Government of the Sick and the Mad-men , it is a Protection of them from Harm , and an Institution of them to Obedience of GOD and of KINGS ; and therefore the Father is to Rule the Understanding of his Child , till it be fit to be ruled by the Laws of GOD ; that is , the Child must Believe and Learn , that he may Chuse and Obey . The Father hath the Prerogative of EDUCATION . A Turk , a Jew , a Heathen can reckon their Children in Sacris Parentum ; they have a Power , a natural and proper Power to breed up their Children in what Religion they please , but not to keep them in it ; for then when they can chuse , they are under no Power of Man , GOD only is the Lord of the Understanding . In the Countries of the Roman Communion , — if the Father be an Heretick in their Accounts , they teach their Children to disobey their Parents , and suppose Heresie to destroy the Father's Right of Power : and Government . Between Christian and Christian there is no difference , as to Matter of Civil Rights , no Law allows that . Notes, typically marginal, from the original text Notes for div A64020-e10 P. 701. P. 700.
