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).

The Royal Wanderer: OR, Gods Providence evidently manifeſted, in the moſt myſterious Deliverance of the Divine Majeſty of CHARLS the Second, King of Great Brittain.

But Wilmot in his wanderings, A Souldier met of the old Kings, That knew him, and with true good will, Secur'd him in a Malt-houſe Kill, where he lay ſweating, almoſt fier'd till Souldiers came, ſearch'd, and retir'd. 'Twas nere the houſe of Miſtreſſe Lane, Whoſe name let no wilde tongue prophane, The Lord, with dangers much diſtreſt, Told how the poore King was oppreſt, to Miſtreſſe Lane, whoſe ſighs and tears, did ſhew her ſorrows, griefs, and fears.

He was as weary of the Cloak, As he was lately of the Oake: But Maſter Laſtell as moſt fit, Uncloak'd the King and carryed it. no danger in the way they ſaw, untill they met her Brother in Law. The Brother ſpy'd and quickly ſpoke, Sir, why bear you your ſervants cloak? But ſhée made anſwer, 'tis ſo great That it doth thruſt me from my ſeat. her Brother (anwered thus by art) they talk no more, ſhake hands and part. But note a change of more renown, As they were paſſing through a Town, They met a Troop of horſe which might Have put them all into a fright. but their good fate ſo gentle was they through the Captains troop did paſſe. When they came to their Inne at night, The Cook-mayd gave the King delight, She asked his birth, and whence he came? A Naylors ſon in Brumageham reply'd the King; prethée quoth ſhée my Iack is down, wind't up for me. The King unus'd to deal in Iacks, Winds up untill the tackling cracks: At which the wench (if all tales true be) Rayl'd at the King, and call'd him booby. the King went out and laught, but they next day to Briſtol made their way. At Briſtol all their hopes were drown'd, For no convenient ſhip was found: From Miſtreſſe Lane he parts, and goes With truſty Wilmot 'mongſt his foes. to London and to Weſtminſter, ith' Hall, where the Scotch Enſignes were He wandered up and down the Town, By ſome conceal'd, to moſt unknown: Twas not a thouſand pound could make Them their fidelities forſake. a ſhip is hir'd, the Maſter ſtraight begins to underſtand his fraight.
