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).

Keying and markup guidelines are available at the Text Creation Partnership web site.

A Hue-and-Cry AFTER THE PLOT. HAlloo the Plot! where i'ſt ith'name of Fate? Good People! what's become of Seventy Eight? 'Twas ſo long ſince, for all this great ado. There's Hopes, as ſaid th' old Crone, it may'nt be true. Theſe Years Egyptian Snakes we well may call, The've eat the former Heads, and Tails, and all: Never before was ſuch an Hydra found; Why't has in vain bin Burnt, and Hangd, and Drownd; Yet ſtill this Devil of a Plot revives; Cats have but Nine, but this has Nine Cats Lives. By great St. Coleman firſt it ſaw the light, But then 'it's ugly ſhape ſo much did fright The Holy Fathers, that without delay, Th' unlucky Baſtard muſt be made away. And ſince to purpoſe they'd the Buſineſs do, In Godfreys Breaſt they Choakt, and Stab'd it too, Yet what for a Deaths-Wound they meant to give, Like an Impoſthume pierſt but made it Live, Then up it got, but yet unhappy ſtill, 'Twas fairly hang'd with Bury, Green, and Hill, And then, as ſoon as his old Friends were Dead, By Tranſmigration into Langhorn fled. No wonder if it would not there abide, 'Twas ſtript and whipt, and ſadly mortify'd; Huffy with that, it left the Ill-natur'd Elf E'ne to be ſtring'd, and gutted by himſelf. Then with the Jeſuits at the Bar Harangu'd; Then made fine Speeches, and was finely Hang'd. Treaſon as Dogs do Puddings, it did ſcorn, And Dy'd as Innocent as Child unborn. 〈1 page duplicate〉 Perkt up agen it ſoon took up it's Station, To comfort Wakeman in his Tribulation, Grown Sawcy there it Guinnys did not grudg, Preſto, 10000 li. blew up the Judg, Tho' t'was the' unconſcionableſt Dog alive, In Fifteen-Thouſand but to leave him five. Well George rubbs off to France, but Plots ſo ſtout 'Twill play at ſmall Games rather then ſtand out; Grown jolly then with Dr. baniſht fears, And took a rouch or two with brisk Celliers, But frighted leaps from Meal-Tubb ſomething ſadder, A Dow-baked Embryo like her BLOODY BLADDER, Hodg took the Lump, and dip't in Holy-Water, Wraps it up warm in Wool, and Obſervator, Brings it to Sams, where Crape with wine ecſtatick, (Who would have thought it,) Chriſtens it PHANATICK Plots turned to Puſs, will no kind Mortal houſe her? See how ſhe's worried by that Dog-Rogue Towzer. A PLOT! the word's a ſpell, the Crown's undone, No Countercharm can ſave's but Forty one, And Forty eight, and Forty one, and then, Like Mill-Horſe round to Forty eight agen, A PLOT! hence with the Bug-Bear, Srs. for ſhame, Sly callow Treaſons lurk ith' pregnant name, 'Tis Sinons Horſe; as many Whigs are there As in the Dreadful Oxford Army were, Thus Roger yelps, as Children build a Town, Of Snow or Dirt only to beat it Down, No longer idleing here, poor Plot will ſtand, But means to venture for a kinder Land. Yet there hopeing to find a little reſt Hee's hang'd becauſe he will not take the TEST, And after all had made the Haddocks bite, But that the courteous Gallows claim'd it's right, 'Twas Conventickler next, but loath to looſe It's life by falls of Pulpits, Seats, and Rews, It Trimmer turn'd, and if you ask for Proof, Here's Rogers Ipſe Dixit, that's enough. 'Tis now Informer. If from thence it fall It can be nothing but—THE DEVIL AND ALL.
