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).

ON the 15th and 16th of the Eleventh Month , 1695 / 6. The Lamentable Confusion and Distraction of the People of this Land , about the badness of the Coyn , was before the view of my Mind ; and how earnest they are to have it Remedied , some Projecting this way , others that , generally concluding the best way is , to call in the Old ( which is abused ) and melt it down by Fire , and separate the Base from the Fine , and so make the Fine into New , putting thereon the true Value , Figure and Fineness by Caesar's Authority ; so the Cause of Confusion and Distraction being removed , the Effects thereof would cease . Whereupon , It ran through my Mind to this Effect ; Even after this manner will the Lord deal with the People ( not only of this Land , but with all People ) of all Lands and Nations , who are in the sight of the Lord grown Corrupted , are out of , or have lost his Image of Purity and Holiness ; some retaining only the likeness thereof , and that very dimly too , hardly to be discern'd , being much Clipt and Deformed , that there is an exceeding want of Weight and Value ( being weighed in the Ballance of the Sanctuary ) because of which the Lord is displeased , and remains so to be , until the Cause be removed . Others are so grosly Corrupted , even to that degree , as that they cannot be in the sight of God allowed Currant and Passable ; but Reprobate Silver ( God doth , and ) Men shall call them , because the Lord hath rejected them , Jer , 6. 30. And the chief Cause and Reason thereof is Peoples Sins , which they love , and wherein they live , many not yet being willing to live out of them while they live on this side the Grave , though Christ Jesus , the Lord from Heaven , the quickening Spirit , is come to put an end to Sin , and bring in everlasting Righteousness , according to Daniel's Prophecy , Dan. 9. 24. and 1 Joh. 3. 8. For that day which the Prophets saw , and through the Holy Ghost Prophesied should come ( Zech. 13. 1 , 2 , 9. and Mal. 3. 2. 3. ) is certainly come , because the light thereof doth shine into the dark Hearts of People , without respect of Persons , shewing unto every one , at one time or other , their present States and Conditions ; insomuch that a Child which is capable to use its Tongue to tell a Lye , by virtue of the in-shining thereof , is measurably able to Judge , that a Lye is not Good , but Bad , as also the Lyer ; and that telling Truth is not Bad , but Good. The same sheweth the Drunkard , that Drunkenness is Bad , and not Good , and that God is not the mover thereunto , but the Devil , &c. Now if all People would believe in the Light of Christ Jesus , wherewith he hath Enlightened every Man that cometh into the World , John 1. 9. and obey it , and walk therein , 1 John 1. 7. as the Nations of them that are Saved shall , Rev. 21. 24. They would find that Virtue and Power therein , which is able to Consume , Burn up and Separate , the Dross and Tin , which is their Sins , and purifie them throughout in Body , Soul , and Spirit , from all Corruptions and Defilements , and stamp upon them the Image and Likeness of the Living God , to wit , Purity and Holiness , without which none shall ever see the Lord , Heb. 12. 14. and in which all ever have , do , and for ever shall see , and find acceptance with God ; which that all may do , who yet do not , is the true desire of my Soul. Richard Scoryer . POSTSCRIPT . AS Silver mixt with Dross , is unacceptable unto Man ; so is Man , being mixt with Sin , unacceptable unto God. And as such Silver must be Refined by Fire to make it acceptable with Man ; so must Man be Refined by the Spirit of Judgment and Burning , Isa . 4. 4. before he can find acceptance with God. The Fining-Pot is for Silver , and the Furnace for Gold , but the Lord trieth the Heart , Prov. 17. 3. London , Printed and Sold by T. Sowle , in White-Hart-Court in Gracious-street , 1696.
