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).

Francis Lord Bishop of Landaffe , by Letters Patents under his Episcopal Seal , granted this Office to Dr. Richard Lloyd and the Respondent John Jones ; to hold to them joyntly and severally , and to the longer Liver of them . Which Grant was duly confirm'd by the Chapter of that Church , and accordingly the said Dr. Richard Lloyd , for several Years , by the Respondent's consent , quietly held and enjoyed the same . The said Lord Bishop died , and Dr. William Lloyd succeeded in that Bishoprick ; and upon his Translation to the Bishoprick of Norwich , Dr. William Beaw succeeded , and is now the present Lord Bishop of Landaffe . The present Lord Bishop of Landaffe , having in his Custody the Original Grant of this Office to Dr. Richard Lloyd , and the Respondent Constituted Commissioners to Execute the Office , and refused to admit the Petitioner to Execute and Enjoy the said Offices , as by Law he ought . Whereupon the Respondent brought an Action at Law against the Appellant , and others for the Profits of the Office by them received ; which Action , by the Death of One of the then Defendants abated . Afterwards , the Respondent brought his Bill in Equity against rhe Appellant , to have an Account of , and Satisfaction for the Profits of the said Office , to which the Appellant answered , and confessed the Patent and Grant to the said Dr. Richard Lloyd and the Respondent ; whereupon the Respondent proceeded to try his Right and Title to the said Office in an Action at the Common Law against the Appellant ; and at Gloucester-Assizes , on full Evidence , obtained a Verdict , and had Judgment thereupon . That afterwards the Court of Chancery Ordered , That a Trial at Bar should be had upon an Action of the Case for Trial of the Title of the said Office ; whereupon , a Trial was had at the Kings-Bench-Bar ; and upon full and long Evidence , a Verdict was given for the Respondent , and upon the Importunity of the Appellant's Counsel , the Case was Stated , and Argued before all the Judges of the said Court of Kings-Bench ; who on Hearing several Arguments on both Sides , were all of Opinion , That the Letters-Patents and Grant made to Dr. Richard Lloyd , and the Respondent were good in Law ; and that the Respondent was well Intituled to the said Office for his Life . That the said Cause coming to be Heard in Chancery , on the Equity reserved in the Presence of Council on both Sides , the Lords-Commissioners were of the same Opinion ; and Decreed an Account to be taken of the Profits of the said Office , and the Respondent to be quieted in the Possession and Enjoyment thereof .
