         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).

           some

           they

           this
           Mr.

           he
           gave

           their
           Ministers

           the

           did
           make
           all
           the
           Enquiry
           he

           fear
           they
           should
           think
           his
           omitting

           he
           was
           forced
           to
           dismiss
           the

           thought
           it
           material
           ,
           he
           was
           willing
           enough
           to
           oblige
           them
           ,
           and
           did
           stay
           some
           days
           for
           some
           Papers
           of
           theirs

           they
           sent
           him
           word

           desired
           might
           be
           inserted
           ,
           but
           he
           heard
           nothing
           more
           of
           them

           of
           the

           his
           Silence

           counted
           an
           Argument
           of
           his
           Guilt

             he
             had
             wronged
             them
             .
          
           He
           was

           for
           him
           ,
           and
           they
           interpreted
           the
           Book
           as
           a

           the
           late
           Reign
           he
           thought

           but
           however
           ,
           when
           he
           is
           better
           inform'd

           he

           be
           very
           willing

           the
           mean
           time
           he
           has
           done
           wrong
           to
           any

           will
           as

           These
           things
           ,
           when
           Mr.
           Walker
           consider'd
           them
           ,
           might
           very
           well
           incline
           him
           to
           use

           at
           least
           so
           innocent
           an
           Expression

           But
           he
           thinks
           fit
           to
           deal
           a
           little
           more
           plainly
           in
           the
           Matter
           ,
           so
           that
           whatever
           he
           says
           of

           he
           hopes

           be
           more
           easily
           excus'd
           :
           He
           does
           confess
           ,
           that
           in
           the
           writing
           that
           Book
           ,
           he
           thought
           it
           necessary
           for
           him
           ,
           with
           as
           little
           Offence
           as
           possible
           ,
           to
           discover
           that
           he
           was
           a
           true
           Son
           of
           the
           Church
           of
           England

           not
           without
           the
           greatest
           Charity
           and
           Tenderness
           for
           his
           fellow
           Christians
           .
           But
           because
           the
           Contrary
           was
           averr'd
           so
           positively

           Derry
           were
           wholly

           great
           wrong

           the
           other

           he

           himself
           extreamly
           obliged
           to
           their
           People
           ,
           and
           he

           but
           he
           knows
           they
           themselves
           would
           not

           any
           Character

           And
           as
           for
           his

           for
           which
           he
           is
           very
           thankful

           knowing

           zeal
           for
           the
           Scotch

           colour
           to
           those
           Discourses
           yet

           give
           him
           any
           fair
           Character
           to

           would
           act
           so
           contrary
           to
           his
           Profession
           ,
           
             That
             he

           he
           hopes
           all
           People
           will

           and
           is
           desirous
           to
           avoid
           the
           Reproach
           of

           fickle

           Besides

           ,
           Mr.

           he
           would
           not
           say
           any
           thing
           that

           seem
           unfit

           such
           an
           Undertaking

           he

           it

           he

           they

           very
           little
           Reason

           done
           him
           wrong

           He

           heard
           of

           Mr.

           no
           better

           that
           he
           might
           clear
           him
           from
           the
           imputation

           advices
           brought

           of
           the

           but
           it
           is

           not
           more
           industrious

           more
           successful

           Mr

           thinks
           they
           do
           themselves
           a
           great
           deal
           of
           right
           ,
           that
           they
           do
           not
           seem
           concern'd
           for
           him

           and
           since
           Mr.
           O.
           is

           Care

           he
           is
           sorry
           he
           plac'd
           his
           Resentments
           no
           better
           but
           joyn'd
           them
           together

           that
           are
           of
           so
           different
           a
           Character
           among

           (
           they
           say
           )

           tho'
           he
           thinks
           it
           advisable
           they
           should
           not
           put
           him
           upon
           justifying
           himself
           any

           Another
           thing
           that
           the
           same
           People
           think
           a
           great
           wrong
           to
           them
           ,
           is

             The
             not
             naming

           Mr.
           W.
           allows
           they
           might
           very
           justly
           reproach
           him
           if
           he
           had
           designedly
           omitted
           it
           ;
           but
           he
           really
           professes
           ,
           he
           was
           not
           only
           unacquainted
           with
           their
           Names
           ,
           but
           ,
           tho'
           he
           took
           some
           pains
           to
           inquire
           into
           them
           ,
           could
           not
           be
           inform'd
           ,
           and
           tho
           he
           has
           since
           that
           desired
           a
           Friend
           to
           make
           a
           more
           narrow
           search
           for
           them
           among
           that
           have
           reflected
           on
           him
           on
           this
           account
           ,
           he
           finds
           them
           still
           more
           teady
           to
           reproach
           him
           ,
           then
           able
           to
           inform
           him
           better
           .
           But
           that
           this
           Omission
           was
           not
           cut
           of
           any
           prejudice
           to
           the
           Gentlemen
           ,
           is
           very
           evident
           from
           the
           care
           he
           hastaken
           of
           them
           before
           and
           since
           that
           in
           his
           Recommendations
           of
           them
           to
           an
           equal
           Reward
           with
           those
           of
           his
           own
           Communion
           ;
           and
           tho'
           some
           idle
           persons
           have
           insinuated
           his
           wilful
           neglect
           of
           them
           ,
           he
           protests
           against
           it
           :
           But
           if
           it
           were
           not
           more
           out
           of
           regard
           to
           them
           ,
           than
           those
           that
           concern
           themselves
           so
           much
           for
           them
           ,
           he
           should
           not
           think
           he
           were
           obliged
           to
           give
           them
           this
           satisfaction
           But
           
           they
           might
           have
           prevented
           this
           themselves
           if
           they
           had

           Mr.
           W.
           having
           waited
           several
           days
           for
           some
           thing
           he
           understood
           they
           would
           have
           inserted

           to
           this
           themselves
           ,
           and
           therefore
           have
           the
           less
           reason

           since
           they
           took
           so
           little

           for

           Vindication
           ;
           he
           little
           expected
           to

           he

           very
           much
           wonder
           how
           it
           proves
           to

           Mr.
           Walker
           does
           think
           he
           should
           be
           very
           impertinent

           notice
           of
           all
           their
           Exceptions

           but
           every
           little
           thing

           advanced
           by
           their
           industry
           so
           much
           to
           his
           disadvantage
           ,
           that
           he
           is

           to
           triflle
           ,
           as
           all
           Men
           must
           do
           that
           speak
           for
           themselves

           Quarrel

           well
           contrive
           how
           to
           omit
           the
           naming

           an
           occasion

           Letter

           a
           downright
           Forgery

           after
           he
           had

           Mr.
           Walker
           does
           wonder

           what
           Forehead
           any
           man

           dare

           upon
           the
           World

           men
           can
           have

           that
           they
           drive
           on
           with
           so
           little
           regard
           to
           Truth

           Honesty

           He
           is
           sorry
           he
           cannot
           pass
           by

           Gravity
           that
           may
           be
           expected
           from
           him

           He
           must
           confess
           ingenuously
           ,
           That
           the
           difference

           that
           he
           had

           he
           had
           disobliged
           his
           Reader
           to
           a

           Mr.

           thought
           himself
           amongst

           since

           been
           mistaken

           But
           Mr.
           Walker
           does
           wonder
           how
           they
           come
           to
           expect
           all
           this
           management
           from
           a
           man
           they

           take
           such
           liberty

           sometimes
           forget
           themselves

           For

           Mr.

           alas
           !
           He
           did
           nothing

           and
           thinks
           it
           was
           a
           peice

           to
           explain
           the
           necessity
           he
           was
           under
           to

           not
           justifie
           ,
           being
           obliged
           by
           his
           Coat
           to

           Man
           of

           And
           some
           ancient
           Canons
           are
           so
           severe
           upon
           Clergy-mens
           taking
           Arms

           And
           all
           this

           Mr.
           Walker
           confesses
           such
           Performances
           would
           have
           better

           persons
           whose
           Profession
           it
           was
           to
           do
           them
           ,
           and
           he

           but
           since
           the
           trouble
           came
           to
           his

           hopes

           easie

           that
           it
           might
           not

           too
           great
           a
           favour
           to
           him
           ,
           he
           thought
           fit
           to
           shew
           the
           occasion
           of
           his
           first

           or
           rather
           to
           shew
           the
           necessity
           that
           threw
           it
           upon
           him
           ,
           which
           he

           Another
           thing
           that
           Mr.
           Walker
           is
           upbraided
           with

           is
           that
           his
           Account
           is
           very
           imperfect
           ,
           and
           for
           that
           matter
           he
           will
           not
           dispute
           with
           them
           ;
           for
           it
           is
           impossible
           it
           could
           be
           otherwise
           ,
           or
           that
           the
           little
           time
           and
           convenience
           he
           had
           to
           be
           exact
           in
           such
           a
           thing
           could
           prevent
           it
           ;
           he
           is
           the
           more
           willing
           to
           allow
           this
           ,
           because
           two
           very
           extraordinary
           things
           occur
           to
           him

           which
           at

           had
           forgot
           ,
           and
           being
           so
           considerable
           in
           demonstrating
           that
           Providence

           Town
           ,
           and
           that
           was
           so
           remarkable
           in
           our
           Deliverance

           he
           begs
           leave
           to

           and
           we
           had
           reason
           to

           we
           considered

           the
           Curiosity

           they
           saw
           seven
           Men
           lying
           dead

           Mr.
           Walker
           will
           not
           say
           ,
           but
           there
           may
           be
           other
           as
           considerable
           things
           omitted

           concern
           Mr.
           Walker
           himself
           ,
           and
           it
           would
           not
           become
           him

           sound
           his
           own
           praises
           ,
           no
           more
           than
           to
           reproach
           others

           There
           are
           many
           other

           against
           Mr.
           Walker

           but
           he
           does
           not
           think
           them
           worth

           notice

           Mr.

           understands

           some

           have

           about
           a

           in
           his
           Defence

           he

           himself
           not
           at

           before

           he

           the

           the

           he
           gives
           him
           ,
           and
           would
           never
           have
           let
           such
           a
           thing

           him
           a
           Man
           of
           less
           vanity

           rate

           This
           he
           hopes

           clear

           of
           his
           losses

           as
           if
           he

           privy
           to
           this

           which
           he
           knows

           not
           only
           exceed
           his
           losses

           his
           merit

           above

           he
           hopes
           few
           will
           think
           him
           so
           ridiculous
           and
           ungrateful
           ,
           after
           he
           was
           so
           willing
           to
           lose
           all

           in
           his
           service

           but
           will
           be
           satisfied
           with
           what
           is
           said
           already
           in
           his
           Defence
           ;
           that
           he
           was
           altogether
           unacquainted
           with
           the
           Printing
           that
           Book

           very
           well
           the
           Author

           Mr.
           Walker

           being
           his
           Friend

           and
           provoked
           by
           the
           discourses
           he
           met
           reflecting
           on
           him
           ,
           he
           writ
           those
           Observations
           ,
           but
           is
           well
           assured
           without
           any
           design
