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).

THe late Censors of the Colledge of Physicians , Dr. Tho. Burwell , Dr. Rich. Torless , Dr. William Dawes , and Dr. Tho. Gill , are now prosecuted at Law , for not qualifying themselves , according to the Statute of 25 K. Ch. II. Now on behalf of the said Censors it is humbly offered , 1. That the Censors are nominated and chosen by the said College , in pursuance of an Act of Parliament of the 14th and 15th of K. H. 8. to that employment , which they are obliged to perform under a penalty without salary or profit , and do not exercise it by virtue of any Letters Patents or Commission immediately from the King. 2. That no one of the Censors since the said Statute , of the 25th of K. Ch. II. ever took the said Oaths , or subscribed the said Declarations , as Censors , or understood themselves to be obliged so to do . 3. That all these four Censors are known Protestants , and upon other occasions have taken the Oaths and subscribed the said Declarations , and did voluntarily sign the Association , and have upon all occasions testified their affection and zeal for his Majesty's Service and Government , and had readily taken the said Oaths , and subscribed the said Declarations upon this occasion also , if any former Censor had so done , or they had not been advised by their Councel , that the Censors were not concerned in the said Statute . 4. That if the Censors be within the said Statute , it is conceived several other Members of the said College ( as all such who have been Presidents , Elects , Censors , Treasurers and Registers ) are liable to prosecution . Wherefore it is humbly hoped , that the said Censors , and other Members of the said Colledge , that may be concern'd in the like omission , shall be relieved in this case , in such manner as your Lordships shall in your great Wisdoms please to think fit .
