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 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).

GReat Queen , That does our Island bless With Princes , and with Palaces ; Treated so ill , chac'd from your throne , Returning you adorn the town , And with a brave revenge do show , Their glory went , and came with you ; While Peace from hence , and you were gone Your houses in that Storm o'rethrown , Those wounds which Civil Rage did give , At once you pardon and Relieve : Constant to England in your love , As Birds are to their wonted Grove , ●hough by rude hands their Nests are spoil'd , There , the next Spring , again they build : Accusing some malignant Star , Not Britain , for that fatal War , Your kindness banishes your fear , Resolv'd to fix for ever here : But what new Myne this work supplies ? Can such a pile from Ruine rise ? This like the first Creation shows , As if at your Command it rose ; Frugality , and Bounty too , Those differing virtues , meet in you ; From a Confin'd well manag'd store You both imploy , and feed the poor : Let Forein Princes vainly boast The rude effects of Pride , and Cost , Of vaster Fabriques , to which They Contribute nothing , but the Pay : This , by the Queen her self design'd , Gives us a pattern of her mind ; The state , and order does proclaim The Genius of that Royal Dame , Each part with just proportion grac'd , And all to such advantage plac'd That the fair view her Window yields , The Town , the River , and the Fields Entring , Beneath us , we descry , And wonder how we came so high ; She needs no weary steps ascend , All seems before her feet to bend , And here , as She was born , She lies High , without taking pains to rise . London , Printed for Henry Herringman at the Anchor in the Lower Walk in the New-Exchange . Anno Dom. 1665.
