+                          Son and Heire to the Right
+                      Honourable RICHARD _Lord_ ROBERTS

+
+                                HONOVRABLE SIR,
+
+  Although it bee true (which a       |
+  worthy Diuine[a] obserueth) that    | [Note a: M^r. _Bolter_ Disc. of
+  formall Hypocrites are heartned and | true Happinesse, p. 61.]
+  hardned in their lewd courses &     |
+  false conceits of happinesse, when  |
+  they heare more infamous Sinners    |
+  than themselues, gloriously and     |
+  flatteringly commended at their     |
+  Deaths; yet we need not feare any   |
+  such bad effect by the              |
+  Funerall-commendation of Gods true  |
+  Saints; because the publike         |
+  Testimonie of their iust Praises    |
+  doth not onely make the wicked more |
+  inexcusable, and the Glory of Gods  |
+  Graces shine farre brighter to      |
+  Posteritie; but also enkindleth in  |
+  the hearts of the godly a greater   |
+  fire of Zeale for imitation. These  | [Note b: _Psalm. 37. 37. Deut.
+  are some of the Ends, why it hath   | 34. 7, 10, 11, 12. Hebr._ 3. 2. &

+  Church, that the Godly should be    | [Note c: _2 Chron. 32. 33._]
+  _Marked_[b] and _Honoured_[c] at    |
+  their Deaths, as _Hezekiah_ was by  |
+  all _Iudah_ & _Ierusalem_:          |
+  _Valentinean_, _Satyrus_ and        |

+  Fortune (as they call them) in      |

+  such as are truly beautified,       |
+  enriched, and ennobled with the     |
+  Purity and Power of Gods Feare in   | [Note A: _Esai. 61. 3._]
+  their Humble Soules[A]. This praise |
+  the Lord will Prosper[g], which is  | [Note g: _Eccles. 15. 10._]
+  vttered in that _Wisdome_[h],       |
+  whereof the _Feare of the Lord is   | [Note h: _Prou. 9. 10._]
+  the beginning_. But for the Saints  |
+  themselues: I dare say with Saint   | [Note i: _Epist. 125._ where S.
+  _Augustine_[i], that they desire    | _Augustine_ refuseth to commend
+  more the Imitation, than the        | vnto a wicked Husb[=a]d his godly
+  Commendation of their vertues: and  | wife that was dead, not onely
+  therefore to tell you the truth (as | because she desired not his praise,

+  Illustrations (I confesse) borrowed | 15. 1 Tim. 4. 13. & 6. 3._]
+  from the holy Fathers[l], whereof I |
+  need not to be ashamed) may be      | [Note l: _--Ingenuo pudore qui

+  able to encline and enlarge them    |
+  to the pursuit and practise of so   |
+  excellent and Glorious a Grace as   |
+  the _Feare of the Lord_; because    |
+  this godly Feare and the impenitent |
+  Allowance of any lust, is as        |
+  incompatible as Heauen and Hell: so |
+  that if you should hate to be       |
+  diuorced from your Bosome-sin       |
+  whatsoeuer it be (which God forbid) |
+  you could haue no true right and    |
+  interest to the precious promises   |
+  of this and of that other life[n].  | [Note n: _1 Tim. 4. 8._]
+  Thinke on this continually, and     |
+  hold it your greatest Honour, the   |
+  Noblest imployment of your Soule,   |
+  as it is indeed, to keep your selfe |
+  (as a King[o] did before you.) from | [Note o: _Psal. 18. 23._]
+  your iniquitie. _Quod si tu (quod   |

+                                THE PRAISE OF A
+                                  Godly Woman.
+
+
+                                  PROV. 31. 30.
+
+                  _--But a woman that feareth the Lord, shee
+                                shall be praised._
+
+  Praise is a Debt (saith _Gregory    |
+  Nazianzen_[a]) and it must be paid, | [Note a: _Orat. 25. fol. 439. Rom.
+  not to men alone, but to women      | 13. 7, 8._]
+  also; yet not to euery woman, be    |
+  shee neuer so noble, wittie,        | [Note: The Diuision.]
+  wealthy or faire[b], vnlesse she be |
+  godly withall: For _fauour is       | [Note b: _Non possumus reprehendere
+  deceitfull, and beautie is vaine;   | diuini artificis opus; sed quem
+  but a woman that feareth the Lord,  | delectat corporis pulchritudo,
+  shee shall be praised_.             | multo magis illa delectet venustas,
+                                      | quæ ad imaginem, Dei est intus, non
+  A promise this is and affirmatiue,  | foris comptior. S. Ambr. Instit.
+  and an affirmatiue promise hath two | Virg. c. 4. Prou. 11. 22. Eccle.
+  parts in it. The first is the       | 11. 2. ... Homo igitur mihi non tam
+  Partie to whom it is made, and shee | vultu quam affectu admirand^s
+  is _Muliertimens Dominum_. _A woman | emineat atque excellat: vt in his
+  that feareth the Lord_, which is    | laudatur, in quibus etiam Deus
+  also the reason why she shall be    | prophetico iudicio laudatur de quo
+  praised: euen because she is _a     | scriptum est Psal. 66. 5.
+  woman fearing the Lord_. The second | Terribilis in consiliis super
+  is the thing promised, and that is  | filios hominum; cuius opera coram
+  _Laudabitur, she shall be praised_. | Deo luceant, qui bona iugibus
+                                      | operibus facta contexat. Id. ib.
+                                      | cap. 3._]
+  In the former, it is not enough     |
+  that she is a woman, because        | [Note I.]
+  euery woman is not _Timens_, one    |
+  that _Feareth_, nor sufficient that | [Note c: _Naturale vocabul[=u] est
+  she _Feareth_; because euery woman  | Foemina. naturalis vocabuli
+  that feareth is not _Timens         | generale, Mulier.--Tert. de Virg.
+  Dominum_, one _that feareth the     | Veland. cap 4._]
+  Lord_; but _she_ that _shall be     |
+  praised_, is all three. 1. A woman  | [Note d: _Aliud est Timere
+  by nature[c], where the weaker her  | simpliciter, aliud Timere
+  sex is, the more shee shall be      | Deum----quippe timere & amare
+  commended. 2. By Grace[d], _a woman | simpliciter prolata, affectione:
+  that feareth_, where the continuall | cu^m additamento aute virtutes
+  act of this Fearing is required. 3. | signific[=a]t. Simplices nempe
+  _That feareth the Lord_, where the  | affectiones insunt naturaliter
+  right Obiect of her continuall      | nobis tanquam ex nobis, Additamenta
+  feare is limited.                   | ex Gratiâ. S. Bern. de Grat. & lib.
+                                      | Arb._]
+  And in the latter we are to         |
+  consider; First, to what matters,   | [Note II.]
+  _Laudabitur_, her praise will       |
+  reach, and in what respect to       |
+  _Ipsa_ Her person. Then secondly,   |
+  When _she shall be praised_; not    |
+  for the present, perhaps, no more   |
+  than she hath beene heretofore; yet |
+  _Laudabitur_, the time will come    |
+  when _she shall be praised_, and    |
+  then too her praise shall so be,    |
+  that it shall be still. Thirdly, of |
+  whom shee shall haue praise, for    |
+  _Laudabitur_ is an action, and must |
+  bee done of some agent, therefore   |
+  we must finde who shal praise her,  |
+  and they will fall out to be her    |
+  Husband and her Children (if she    |
+  haue them[e]) and if they faile in  | [Note e: _Mulier enim no naturâ
+  this dutie, then the godly shall    | nomen est vxoris, sed vxor
+  praise her; and if they cease to    | coditione nomen est mulieris. Tert.
+  doe it, then her own workes shall   | ib. c. 5. Gen. 2. 23. Hæc vocabitur
+  praise her, yea rather than faile,  | mulier, quoniam de viro suo sumpta
+  God himselfe shall praise her,      | est: Quia sumpta est (inquit) de
+  which is best of all. So sure she   | viro suo, non quia virum experta
+  is to be praised, not for the       | ... Non enim corruptelæ, sed sexus
+  present onely, but for euer. And so | vocabulum est. Gal. 4. 4. Luke 1.
+  this Text besides that it is a      | 28. S. Ambr. ibid. c. 5._]
+  _Promise_, it is also a _Motiue_ to |
+  stirre vs vp to feare God, that so  | [Note: A Promise, and Motiue.]
+  we also may haue true and eternall  |
+  praise of God. It is both, and      | [Note: _I. The partie that shall be
+  both waies wee to haue vse of it,   | praised._]
+  as of a _Promise_, and as of a      |
+  _Motiue_: both these waies at once; |
+  _A woman that feareth the Lord she  |
+  shall be praised._                  |
+                                      |
+  A weake sex[f] to beginne with, and | [Note f: _1 Pet. 3. 7. Ier. 50.
+  yet being strengthned by Grace[g],  | 37. Nah. 3. 13. Gal. 3. 27, 28._]
+  no impediment; but that a woman as  |
+  wel as a man may feare the Lord,    | [Note g: _--Ex parte natura (nisi
+  and haue praise of him, and so      | sit fortitude maioris gratiæ)
+  become the partie who shall, and    | faciliùs incarnatur ad malum sexus
+  one Reason too, why _shee shall be  | formineus. Bonau. L. 2. d. 21. q.
+  praised_.                           | 3. p. 18._]
+                                      |
+  For a woman must be more good than  |
+  nature, art, policie, preferment    |
+  can make her, else shee is not good |
+  enough for Gods Spirit to praise    |
+  her. He commends neither men nor    |
+  women considered in their pure      |
+  Naturalls only, in that estate of   |
+  corruption, they all heare alike to | [Note h: _Rom. 3. 9._]
+  their disgrace, that they are _All  |
+  vnder sinne[h]_, _All come[i] short | [Note i: _Rom. 3. 23._]
+  of the glory of God_, and are _All  |
+  the children of[k] wrath_, because  | [Note k: _Ephes. 2. 3._]
+  they _Are without all feare of      |
+  God_[l]                             | [Note l: _Rom. 3. 18._]
+                                      |
+  By nature then both sexes are alike |
+  faultie, alike disc[=o]mendable in  |
+  Gods sight, and so they should be   |
+  in ours. We should not dispraise    |
+  women more than men, for the sex    |
+  sake only (as some doe[m]) because  | [Note m: _Eurip. Plutarc. de
+  they haue as noble soules as men,   | Tranquilit Mulier quantibuis proba,
+  for[n] soules haue no sexes, (as    | Mulier tamen est._]
+  Saint _Ambrose_ saith) nor praise   |
+  women for the endowments of the     | [Note n: _Anima enim sexum non
+  flesh onely (as othersome doe[o])   | habet.--De Virg. som. 1. lib: 3.
+  vnlesse they be adorned also with   | fol. 99._]
+  the sauing Graces of the Spirit,    |
+  whereof a chiefe one is not noble   | [Note o: _Cornel. Agrip. de

+  the Lord_, his treasure.[A] This    |
+  godly feare is that, that makes a   | [Note A: _Es. 33. 6._]
+  Woman in relation[p] to God,        |
+  praise-worthy. And good reason it   | [Note p: _Caiet. in. loc._]
+  should do so, if we regard the      |
+  weaknesse of a woman, in whom so    |
+  excellent a Grace as _the feare of  |
+  the Lord_, is found, and the        |
+  Noblenesse of fearing the Lord,     |
+  being so found.                     |
+                                      |
+  First, a womans weaknesse is        |
+  naturally[q] greater than the mans, | [Note q: _Naturaliter etiam maior

+  is weaker, and her spirit lesse     | spirit[=u] mulieris quam viri:

+  flesh, and the Ignorance of his     | Auctoritate: quia per duo tantum
+  minde; but then he feared lest God  | scilicet: per Fragilitat[=e] carnis
+  would iudge men by wom[=e], whose   | & Ignorantiam mentis putobã, &c.
+  sex being more fraile, more         | ser. 35. p. 428._]

+  for all that oftentimes more holy,  |
+  more deuout than many men.          |
+                                      |
+  Secondly, the _Feare of the Lord_   |
+  is the truest Nobilitie (as         |
+  _Gerson_[r] proues) the noblest     | [Note r: _Tractat. de Nobilitate,

+  ciuill, and meerely morall          |
+  excellencies, perfections, and      |
+  endowments a woman may haue, nay    |
+  (which is neerest the point) other  |
+  kindes of Feare she may haue, and   | [Note B: _2 Kings 9. 34. Act. 14.
+  yet be base, seruile, cursed as     | 25. 1 Ioh. 4. 18._]
+  _Iezebel_[B], not praise-worthy, as |
+  namely, if she feare men[C], or     | [Note C: _Matth. 10. 28. Es. 51.
+  what else besides more than God, or | 12._]
+  not for God (as Saint _Bernard_[s]  |
+  limits) or if shee feare God as a   | [Note s: _Convertatur ad ipsum
+  Iudge, in respect of his            | etiam Timor tuus, quia peruersus

+  Father for loue of his goodnesse,   | præter eum aut non propter eum. S.
+  and from an hatred of wickednesse,  | Ber. in cap. Ieiun. ser. 2._]
+  or if she haue cast off the feare   |
+  of the Lord, which shee hath seemed | [Note t: _Quid magn[=u] est,

+  Looke we then first to the Obiect   | tom. 10._]
+  of the _Laudable womans feare_,     |
+  that he whom she feareth be the     | [Note: I. _The Obiect of her
+  Lord, in respect of his Mercy and   | feare._]
+  Iustice both; then to the           |
+  continuall employment of her        |
+  _Feare_, not one that hath feared   |
+  him, or will feare him; but one     |
+  that doth feare him for the         |
+  present, and continueth therein,    |
+  else shee is not a woman _Timens    |
+  Dominum_, _Fearing the Lord_, and   |
+  so not worthy to be _praised_.      |
+                                      |

+                                      |

+                                      |
+  First in respect of God, she shall  | [Note s: _Psal. 16. 3._]

+  Excellent[s], Hidden Ones[t]: for   | [Note t: _Psal. 83. 3._]

+                                      |

+  2. Nor only because actuall praise  |
+  is in the lips of the praiser, and  | [Note r: _Arrian. Epict. l. 3. c.
+  so a wicked woman may be praised,   | 2._]
+  and yet not be worthy of it, and a  |
+  godly woman may be praise-worthy,   |
+  and yet not haue it, whereas        |
+  praise-worthinesse is euer in the   |
+  partie to be praised, and fewest    |
+  (you know) haue this worth; but     |
+  many haue praise without it,        |
+  therefore praise-worthinesse is the |
+  Nobler Grace of the two, and        |
+  consequently best for a Woman to be |
+  worthy of praise, though she be not |
+  praised for the present.            |
+                                      |
+  3. But one of the chiefest Reasons  |
+  is this; because indeed all our     |
+  earthly praise is _Laudatur_, that  |
+  is, for the present; but continueth |
+  not. Is, but shall not be.          |
+  Sometimes a godly woman is          |
+  commended, and sometimes she is     |
+  not. As S. _Paul_ praised the       |
+  _Corinthians_[s], _Now I praise you | [Note s: _1 Cor. 11. 1, 22_]
+  Brethren_, and by and by he saith:  |
+  _Shall I praise you in this? I      |
+  praise you not_: whereas This       |
+  praise here promised so Is, that it |
+  _shall be_ still, and that cannot   |
+  be in this Transitory world; but in |
+  Heauen, where Her praise that       |
+  feareth the Lord for euer, endureth |
+  for euer: _Laudabitur, She shall be |
+  praised_.                           |
+                                      |
+  The best Time then for commending   | [Note: III.
+  Her is yet to come, and that from   | _Of whom shee shal be praised._]
+  Him who can best doe it; But I must |
+  tell you first, this Time should    | [Note t: _2 Kings 9. 11. Act. 24.

+  their Deuillish propertie[t] with   |

+  beare with a fraile Body, that thou | part 2._]
+  must much more beare with a fraile  |
+  Minde and Body too. Consider also O |
+  Man, that this her Pettishnesse did |
+  more wound her to the heart, than   |
+  any iniury thou couldst presse her  |
+  with. Neither doe I speake this to  |
+  nourish passion in any, or to proue |
+  her Anger to be Sinlesse[s]; but to | [Note s: _Vitemus ergò aut
+  be a lesse Sinne, because her       | temperemus irac[=u]diam: ne sit
+  Spirituall and Bodily Distemper was | eius aut in Laudibus exceptio, aut
+  so great, or rather because her     | Off. lib. 1. cap. 21._]
+  Faith quenched the flame of this    |
+  fiery passion in Christs Bloud,     |
+  resolued and melted her heart into  |
+  many penitent Teares afterwards.    | [Note: _Repentance for the same._]
+  Oh, said she to me, (pressing her   |
+  with _Dauids_ example, _Psal.       |
+  131._) In my Health I could digest  |
+  any iniury, and deemed it base and  |
+  vngodly, not to be able to doe so;  |
+  but now (I know not how) me thinkes |
+  I am ouer-tender in bearing them. I |
+  am impatient indeed, and then I     |
+  weepe for my impatiencie. For I     |
+  know (as she her selfe vrged) _The  |
+  wrath of Man doth not accomplish    | [Note t: _Iam. 1. 20. Psalm. 4.
+  the Righteousnesse of God_[t].      | 4._]
+                                      |
+  Thus shee was Angrie with her selfe | [Note u: _Ephes. 4. 26. Vel certè
+  for being Angrie with others, and   | sic: Si irascimini, vobis
+  then (according to Saint _Ambroses_ | irascimini, quia commoti estis, &
+  rule) it ceased towards them before | non peccabitis. Qui enim sibi
+  the Sunne went down[u]; and was not | irascitur, quia citò c[=o]motus

+                                      |
+  But aye me! me thinkes I now heare  | [Note: _Her Agonie._]
+  her groaning vunder the dolefull    |
+  pangs of Death, vnder those pangs   |
+  of which shee had foretold saying:  |
+  I shall suffer much more ere I goe  |
+  hence. And can any haue the heart   |
+  to heare her groaning pangs,        |
+  without renting his owne heart from |
+  his darling pleasure? without       |
+  lamenting his owne sinnes, which    |
+  vnlesse he forsake betimes, will    |
+  bring him to euerlasting            | [Note x: _Ezek. 18. 13, 30._]
+  Burnings[x]? or without learning to |
+  compassionate euery weake one, to   | [Note y: _--Si quem viderimus

+  Let vs then, not yet, leaue this    | [Note: _Deuotion at Her Death._]
+  Departing Saint. For in the midst   |
+  of this her Agonie, after shee had  |
+  layen groaning many houres without  |
+  any articulate or distinct speech,  |
+  yet vpon triall made of Her sense   |
+  and memory by demanding of Her,     |
+  whether she would haue prayers made |
+  for Her, she answered plainly: With |
+  all my heart, pray, pray. And then  |
+  as _Gregory Nazianzen_[a] reports   | [Note a: _Orat. 28. de Funere
+  of his Father, that though He was   | Patris. Tom. 2._]
+  daily, yea hourely, in great paine  |
+  before his Death, yet He was euer   |
+  still and quiet from paine, onely   |
+  while Diuine Seruice was saying; so |
+  this Deuout Lady forgetting (as it  |
+  were) Her former Groanings, did     |
+  listen attentiuely to the prayers   |
+  that were made for Her, without     |
+  fetching so much as one sob during  |
+  that time. And afterwards           |
+  rehearsing distinctly part of the   |
+  Lords Prayer, you might heare Her,  |
+  when S. _Stephens_ Vision and last  |
+  words[b] were read vnto Her, repeat | [Note b: _Act. 7. 53, 56, 59._]
+  very often these last words of Her  |
+  Sauiour[c]: _O Heauenly Father into | [Note c: _Luke 23. 46._]
+  thy hands I commend my spirit_.     |
+  Thus on a sudden I haue told you    | [Note A: _Reuel. 14. 13._]
+  how she _Dyed in the Lord_[A], and  |
+  is _with Christ_[B].                | [Note B _Phil. 1. 23._]
+                                      |
+  And though we saw her afterwards    |
+  mouing her lips; but heard not her  |
+  Voice, no more than they that were  |
+  at Saint _Ambroses_ Death did heare | [Note d: _Paulin. in D. Ambros
+  his Voice; but only saw his lips    | Vita._]
+  moue[d]; yet we must not thinke     |
+  _The Spirit of strength_[e], of     | [Note e: _Esai. 11. 2._]
+  _Prayer_ and _Grace_[f], is then    |
+  onely strong, when we heare a Dying | [Note f: _Zach. 12. 10._]
+  Saint pray, because Christs Spirit  |
+  cries in Gods Children, _Abba,      |
+  Father_[g], with Vnutterable        | [Note g: _Gal. 4. 6._]
+  Groanings[h] which we cannot heare, |
+  and therefore I doubt not, but this | [Note h: _Rom. 8. 26._]
+  Elect Lady cried loudest in Gods    |
+  eares, when we heard not her words; |
+  and why may we not thinke now, our  |
+  sinnes hindered vs from hearing     |
+  them? I am sure, heretofore she     |
+  hath spoken againe and againe many  |
+  Heart-piercing speeches to deterre  |
+  from Sinne, and to allure to        |
+  Holinesse of Life. If she be not    |
+  hearkened to now, henceforth wee    |
+  shall heare Her speake no more. _I  |
+  charge you therefore before God and |
+  the Lord Iesus Christ, and the      |
+  Elect Angells_:[A] you (I say) I    | [Note A: _1 Tim. 5. 21._]

+  forsake those Sins; and whomsoeuer  |
+  she hath zealously exhorted to holy |
+  Duties, that you performe those     |
+  holy Duties, for henceforth you     |
+  shall heare Her speake no more.     |
+                                      |
+  But why should I detaine thee       | [Note: _Conclusion. Sed quid ego te

+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B.  "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark.  It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement.  There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement.  See
+paragraph 1.C below.  There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.  See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C.  The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works.  Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States.  If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed.  Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work.  You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D.  The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work.  Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change.  If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work.  The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E.  Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1.  The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the
+phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever.  You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder.  Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4.  Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5.  Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6.  You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form.  However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form.  Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7.  Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works
+unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
+
+1.E.8.  You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing
+access to or distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works provided
+that
+
+- You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
+     the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+     you already use to calculate your applicable taxes.  The fee is
+     owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+     has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+     Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.  Royalty payments
+     must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+     prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+     returns.  Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and
+     sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+     address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+     the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+     you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+     does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+     License.  You must require such a user to return or
+     destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+     and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+     Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+     money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+     electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+     of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+     distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9.  If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark.  Contact the
+Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at

+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+much the combate &#383;he hath, is more difficult, and
+the victory &#383;he gets, more commendable. I know
+a man (<i>Ble&#383;en&#383;is</i> by name) that thought two things

+Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no

+set forth in the General Terms of Use part of this license, apply to
+copying and distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works to

+Gutenberg is a registered trademark, and may not be used if you
+charge for the eBooks, unless you receive specific permission.  If you
+do not charge anything for copies of this eBook, complying with the
+rules is very easy.  You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose
+such as creation of derivative works, reports, performances and
+research.  They may be modified and printed and given away--you may do

+
+THE FULL PROJECT GUTENBERG LICENSE
+PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU DISTRIBUTE OR USE THIS WORK
+
+To protect the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting the free
+distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing this work
+(or any other work associated in any way with the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg"), you agree to comply with all the terms of the Full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License (available with this file or online at
+http://gutenberg.org/license).
+
+
+Section 1.  General Terms of Use and Redistributing Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic works
+
+1.A.  By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to
+and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
+(trademark/copyright) agreement.  If you do not agree to abide by all
+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B.  "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark.  It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement.  There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement.  See
+paragraph 1.C below.  There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.  See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C.  The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works.  Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States.  If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed.  Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work.  You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D.  The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work.  Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change.  If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work.  The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E.  Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1.  The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the
+phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever.  You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder.  Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4.  Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5.  Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6.  You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form.  However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form.  Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7.  Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works
+unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
+
+1.E.8.  You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing
+access to or distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works provided
+that
+
+- You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
+     the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+     you already use to calculate your applicable taxes.  The fee is
+     owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+     has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+     Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.  Royalty payments
+     must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+     prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+     returns.  Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and
+     sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+     address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+     the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+     you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+     does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+     License.  You must require such a user to return or
+     destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+     and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+     Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+     money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+     electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+     of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+     distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9.  If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark.  Contact the
+Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org.  Email contact links and up to date contact

+page at http://pglaf.org
+
+For additional contact information:
+     Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+     Chief Executive and Director
+     gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+  God.

+  formall Hypocrites are heartned and | true Happinesse, p. 61.]
+  hardned in their lewd courses &     |
+  false conceits of happinesse, when  |
+  they heare more infamous Sinners    |
+  than themselues, gloriously and     |
+  flatteringly commended at their     |
+  Deaths; yet we need not feare any   |
+  such bad effect by the              |
+  Funerall-commendation of Gods true  |
+  Saints; because the publike         |
+  Testimonie of their iust Praises    |
+  doth not onely make the wicked more |
+  inexcusable, and the Glory of Gods  |

+
+  Praise is a Debt (saith _Gregory    |
+  Nazianzen_[a]) and it must be paid, | [Note a: _Orat. 25. fol. 439. Rom.
+  not to men alone, but to women      | 13. 7, 8._]
+  also; yet not to euery woman, be    |
+  shee neuer so noble, wittie,        | [Note: The Diuision.]
+  wealthy or faire[b], vnlesse she be |
+  godly withall: For _fauour is       | [Note b: _Non possumus reprehendere
+  deceitfull, and beautie is vaine;   | diuini artificis opus; sed quem
+  but a woman that feareth the Lord,  | delectat corporis pulchritudo,

+                                      | quae ad imaginem, Dei est intus, non
+  A promise this is and affirmatiue,  | foris comptior. S. Ambr. Instit.
+  and an affirmatiue promise hath two | Virg. c. 4. Prou. 11. 22. Eccle.
+  parts in it. The first is the       | 11. 2. ... Homo igitur mihi non tam
+  Partie to whom it is made, and shee | vultu quam affectu admirand^s
+  is _Muliertimens Dominum_. _A woman | emineat atque excellat: vt in his
+  that feareth the Lord_, which is    | laudatur, in quibus etiam Deus
+  also the reason why she shall be    | prophetico iudicio laudatur de quo
+  praised: euen because she is _a     | scriptum est Psal. 66. 5.
+  woman fearing the Lord_. The second | Terribilis in consiliis super
+  is the thing promised, and that is  | filios hominum; cuius opera coram
+  _Laudabitur, she shall be praised_. | Deo luceant, qui bona iugibus
+                                      | operibus facta contexat. Id. ib.
+                                      | cap. 3._]
+  In the former, it is not enough     |
+  that she is a woman, because        | [Note I.]
+  euery woman is not _Timens_, one    |
+  that _Feareth_, nor sufficient that | [Note c: _Naturale vocabul[=u] est
+  she _Feareth_; because euery woman  | Foemina. naturalis vocabuli
+  that feareth is not _Timens         | generale, Mulier.--Tert. de Virg.
+  Dominum_, one _that feareth the     | Veland. cap 4._]
+  Lord_; but _she_ that _shall be     |
+  praised_, is all three. 1. A woman  | [Note d: _Aliud est Timere
+  by nature[c], where the weaker her  | simpliciter, aliud Timere
+  sex is, the more shee shall be      | Deum----quippe timere & amare
+  commended. 2. By Grace[d], _a woman | simpliciter prolata, affectione:
+  that feareth_, where the continuall | cu^m additamento aute virtutes
+  act of this Fearing is required. 3. | signific[=a]t. Simplices nempe

+                                      | Arb._]
+  And in the latter we are to         |
+  consider; First, to what matters,   | [Note II.]
+  _Laudabitur_, her praise will       |
+  reach, and in what respect to       |
+  _Ipsa_ Her person. Then secondly,   |
+  When _she shall be praised_; not    |
+  for the present, perhaps, no more   |
+  than she hath beene heretofore; yet |
+  _Laudabitur_, the time will come    |
+  when _she shall be praised_, and    |
+  then too her praise shall so be,    |
+  that it shall be still. Thirdly, of |
+  whom shee shall haue praise, for    |
+  _Laudabitur_ is an action, and must |
+  bee done of some agent, therefore   |
+  we must finde who shal praise her,  |
+  and they will fall out to be her    |
+  Husband and her Children (if she    |
+  haue them[e]) and if they faile in  | [Note e: _Mulier enim no natura
+  this dutie, then the godly shall    | nomen est vxoris, sed vxor
+  praise her; and if they cease to    | coditione nomen est mulieris. Tert.
+  doe it, then her own workes shall   | ib. c. 5. Gen. 2. 23. Haec vocabitur
+  praise her, yea rather than faile,  | mulier, quoniam de viro suo sumpta
+  God himselfe shall praise her,      | est: Quia sumpta est (inquit) de
+  which is best of all. So sure she   | viro suo, non quia virum experta
+  is to be praised, not for the       | ... Non enim corruptelae, sed sexus
+  present onely, but for euer. And so | vocabulum est. Gal. 4. 4. Luke 1.
+  this Text besides that it is a      | 28. S. Ambr. ibid. c. 5._]
+  _Promise_, it is also a _Motiue_ to |
+  stirre vs vp to feare God, that so  | [Note: A Promise, and Motiue.]
+  we also may haue true and eternall  |
+  praise of God. It is both, and      | [Note: _I. The partie that shall be
+  both waies wee to haue vse of it,   | praised._]
+  as of a _Promise_, and as of a      |
+  _Motiue_: both these waies at once; |
+  _A woman that feareth the Lord she  |
+  shall be praised._                  |
+                                      |
+  A weake sex[f] to beginne with, and | [Note f: _1 Pet. 3. 7. Ier. 50.
+  yet being strengthned by Grace[g],  | 37. Nah. 3. 13. Gal. 3. 27, 28._]
+  no impediment; but that a woman as  |
+  wel as a man may feare the Lord,    | [Note g: _--Ex parte natura (nisi
+  and haue praise of him, and so      | sit fortitude maioris gratiae)
+  become the partie who shall, and    | facilius incarnatur ad malum sexus
+  one Reason too, why _shee shall be  | formineus. Bonau. L. 2. d. 21. q.
+  praised_.                           | 3. p. 18._]
+                                      |
+  For a woman must be more good than  |
+  nature, art, policie, preferment    |
+  can make her, else shee is not good |
+  enough for Gods Spirit to praise    |
+  her. He commends neither men nor    |
+  women considered in their pure      |
+  Naturalls only, in that estate of   |
+  corruption, they all heare alike to | [Note h: _Rom. 3. 9._]
+  their disgrace, that they are _All  |
+  vnder sinne[h]_, _All come[i] short | [Note i: _Rom. 3. 23._]
+  of the glory of God_, and are _All  |
+  the children of[k] wrath_, because  | [Note k: _Ephes. 2. 3._]
+  they _Are without all feare of      |
+  God_[l]                             | [Note l: _Rom. 3. 18._]
+                                      |
+  By nature then both sexes are alike |
+  faultie, alike disc[=o]mendable in  |
+  Gods sight, and so they should be   |
+  in ours. We should not dispraise    |
+  women more than men, for the sex    |
+  sake only (as some doe[m]) because  | [Note m: _Eurip. Plutarc. de
+  they haue as noble soules as men,   | Tranquilit Mulier quantibuis proba,
+  for[n] soules haue no sexes, (as    | Mulier tamen est._]
+  Saint _Ambrose_ saith) nor praise   |
+  women for the endowments of the     | [Note n: _Anima enim sexum non
+  flesh onely (as othersome doe[o])   | habet.--De Virg. som. 1. lib: 3.
+  vnlesse they be adorned also with   | fol. 99._]
+  the sauing Graces of the Spirit,    |
+  whereof a chiefe one is not noble   | [Note o: _Cornel. Agrip. de
+  birth, great wealth, excellent wit, | Nobilit. foeminei sexus. Bocacius
+  or rare beautie: but _the feare of  | de claris mulieribus._]
+  the Lord_, his treasure.[A] This    |
+  godly feare is that, that makes a   | [Note A: _Es. 33. 6._]
+  Woman in relation[p] to God,        |
+  praise-worthy. And good reason it   | [Note p: _Caiet. in. loc._]
+  should do so, if we regard the      |
+  weaknesse of a woman, in whom so    |
+  excellent a Grace as _the feare of  |
+  the Lord_, is found, and the        |
+  Noblenesse of fearing the Lord,     |
+  being so found.                     |
+                                      |
+  First, a womans weaknesse is        |
+  naturally[q] greater than the mans, | [Note q: _Naturaliter etiam maior
+  and therefore by how much her flesh | lucti est inter carnem et
+  is weaker, and her spirit lesse     | spirit[=u] mulieris quam viri:

+  minde; but then he feared lest God  | scilicet: per Fragilitat[=e] carnis
+  would iudge men by wom[=e], whose   | & Ignorantiam mentis putoba, &c.

+  ignorant than that of mens, were    |
+  for all that oftentimes more holy,  |
+  more deuout than many men.          |
+                                      |
+  Secondly, the _Feare of the Lord_   |
+  is the truest Nobilitie (as         |
+  _Gerson_[r] proues) the noblest     | [Note r: _Tractat. de Nobilitate,

+  excellencies, perfections, and      |
+  endowments a woman may haue, nay    |
+  (which is neerest the point) other  |

+  yet be base, seruile, cursed as     | 25. 1 Ioh. 4. 18._]
+  _Iezebel_[B], not praise-worthy, as |
+  namely, if she feare men[C], or     | [Note C: _Matth. 10. 28. Es. 51.
+  what else besides more than God, or | 12._]
+  not for God (as Saint _Bernard_[s]  |
+  limits) or if shee feare God as a   | [Note s: _Convertatur ad ipsum

+  that he whom she feareth be the     | [Note: I. _The Obiect of her

+  Iustice both; then to the           |
+  continuall employment of her        |
+  _Feare_, not one that hath feared   |
+  him, or will feare him; but one     |
+  that doth feare him for the         |
+  present, and continueth therein,    |
+  else shee is not a woman _Timens    |

+                                      |

+                                      | [Note q: _Act. 12. 21._]
+  2. Nor only because actuall praise  |
+  is in the lips of the praiser, and  | [Note r: _Arrian. Epict. l. 3. c.
+  so a wicked woman may be praised,   | 2._]
+  and yet not be worthy of it, and a  |
+  godly woman may be praise-worthy,   |
+  and yet not haue it, whereas        |
+  praise-worthinesse is euer in the   |
+  partie to be praised, and fewest    |
+  (you know) haue this worth; but     |
+  many haue praise without it,        |
+  therefore praise-worthinesse is the |
+  Nobler Grace of the two, and        |
+  consequently best for a Woman to be |
+  worthy of praise, though she be not |
+  praised for the present.            |
+                                      |
+  3. But one of the chiefest Reasons  |
+  is this; because indeed all our     |
+  earthly praise is _Laudatur_, that  |
+  is, for the present; but continueth |
+  not. Is, but shall not be.          |
+  Sometimes a godly woman is          |
+  commended, and sometimes she is     |
+  not. As S. _Paul_ praised the       |
+  _Corinthians_[s], _Now I praise you | [Note s: _1 Cor. 11. 1, 22_]
+  Brethren_, and by and by he saith:  |
+  _Shall I praise you in this? I      |
+  praise you not_: whereas This       |
+  praise here promised so Is, that it |
+  _shall be_ still, and that cannot   |
+  be in this Transitory world; but in |
+  Heauen, where Her praise that       |
+  feareth the Lord for euer, endureth |
+  for euer: _Laudabitur, She shall be |
+  praised_.                           |
+                                      |
+  The best Time then for commending   | [Note: III.
+  Her is yet to come, and that from   | _Of whom shee shal be praised._]
+  Him who can best doe it; But I must |
+  tell you first, this Time should    | [Note t: _2 Kings 9. 11. Act. 24.

+  _Many daughters haue done           |

+  neuerthelesse Honour to be giuen    |

+  Helpe and refreshment, which they   |
+  might get by conuersing with Her in |
+  the choicest passages of            |
+  Sanctification. For shee had the    |
+  Art to vphold holy conferences      |
+  about perplexities of conscience,   |
+  Relapses into sin, and Remedies     |
+  against the same: Shee had the      |

+  in that Citie (as she professed) to |

+  Griefe was it vnto Her (as it was   |
+  vnto Saint _Ambrose_) to heare of   |
+  the Death of any of Gods zealous    | [Note e: _Paulin. in Vita D.

+                                      |
+  And should I be silent, yet Her     |

+  solitary conferences with her God,  |
+  feruent prayers and eiaculations,   |
+  which (as the sweetest incense)     |
+  shee euer and anon sent vp to the   |

+  home, being summoned by Sicknesse,  |
+  by and by she set her _House in     |
+  order_, like _Hezekiah_; She spake  |
+  to the Hearts of Her Children,      |
+  Friends, and Seruants, that were    |
+  then about Her (like _Iacob_) by    |
+  putting them in remembrance of Her  |
+  Departure and their Duties: She     |
+  hungered and thirsted after the     |
+  Body and Bloud of Her Dearest       | [Note: _Worthy receiving the

+  Due Examination[p] of Her           |

+                                      |
+  And now (Beloued) that she lieth on |
+  the bed of Languishing, we must not |
+  be austere in reprehending euery    |
+  Infirmity; but Pitifull in          |
+  considering the tender frailtie of  |
+  it.                                 |
+                                      |
+  For what though shee were (as Sicke | [Note: _Passionatnesse by reason of
+  folke are commonly[A]) more         | Spiritual and Bodily Dist[)e]per._]
+  Passionate than others, yea than    |
+  Her selfe in Her health, yet if God | [Note A: [Greek: Dusareston hoi
+  iudgeth not according to the        | nosountes aporias hupo] _Eurip.
+  strange Effects and Symptoms of Her | Orest._]
+  sicknesse, not according to the     |
+  short moment and violent passions   |
+  of Her Death; but according to the  |
+  holy Actions of Her Health, the     |
+  former Affections of Her Heart, and |
+  the Generall Course of Her Life[q]; | [Note q: M^r. _Greenham_. 1. Treat.

+  to censure her passionatenesse, who | 2.]
+  by reason of the parching Feauer of |
+  the Spirit, as well as of the Body, |
+  was disquieted in her Imagination   |
+  (as the Physitian of the body could |
+  discerne) though not in her Memory. |
+  Consider therefore O Man (as that   |
+  excellent Physitian of the Soule    |
+  aduiseth thee[r]) if thou canst     | [Note r: _Id. Of Death, fol. 9.
+  beare with a fraile Body, that thou | part 2._]
+  must much more beare with a fraile  |
+  Minde and Body too. Consider also O |
+  Man, that this her Pettishnesse did |
+  more wound her to the heart, than   |
+  any iniury thou couldst presse her  |
+  with. Neither doe I speake this to  |
+  nourish passion in any, or to proue |
+  her Anger to be Sinlesse[s]; but to | [Note s: _Vitemus ergo aut
+  be a lesse Sinne, because her       | temperemus irac[=u]diam: ne sit
+  Spirituall and Bodily Distemper was | eius aut in Laudibus exceptio, aut

+  Faith quenched the flame of this    |
+  fiery passion in Christs Bloud,     |
+  resolued and melted her heart into  |
+  many penitent Teares afterwards.    | [Note: _Repentance for the same._]
+  Oh, said she to me, (pressing her   |
+  with _Dauids_ example, _Psal.       |
+  131._) In my Health I could digest  |
+  any iniury, and deemed it base and  |
+  vngodly, not to be able to doe so;  |
+  but now (I know not how) me thinkes |
+  I am ouer-tender in bearing them. I |
+  am impatient indeed, and then I     |
+  weepe for my impatiencie. For I     |
+  know (as she her selfe vrged) _The  |
+  wrath of Man doth not accomplish    | [Note t: _Iam. 1. 20. Psalm. 4.
+  the Righteousnesse of God_[t].      | 4._]
+                                      |
+  Thus shee was Angrie with her selfe | [Note u: _Ephes. 4. 26. Vel certe

+                                      |
+  But aye me! me thinkes I now heare  | [Note: _Her Agonie._]
+  her groaning vunder the dolefull    |
+  pangs of Death, vnder those pangs   |
+  of which shee had foretold saying:  |
+  I shall suffer much more ere I goe  |
+  hence. And can any haue the heart   |
+  to heare her groaning pangs,        |
+  without renting his owne heart from |
+  his darling pleasure? without       |
+  lamenting his owne sinnes, which    |
+  vnlesse he forsake betimes, will    |
+  bring him to euerlasting            | [Note x: _Ezek. 18. 13, 30._]

+  Let vs then, not yet, leaue this    | [Note: _Deuotion at Her Death._]
+  Departing Saint. For in the midst   |
+  of this her Agonie, after shee had  |
+  layen groaning many houres without  |
+  any articulate or distinct speech,  |
+  yet vpon triall made of Her sense   |
+  and memory by demanding of Her,     |
+  whether she would haue prayers made |
+  for Her, she answered plainly: With |
+  all my heart, pray, pray. And then  |
+  as _Gregory Nazianzen_[a] reports   | [Note a: _Orat. 28. de Funere
+  of his Father, that though He was   | Patris. Tom. 2._]
+  daily, yea hourely, in great paine  |
+  before his Death, yet He was euer   |
+  still and quiet from paine, onely   |
+  while Diuine Seruice was saying; so |
+  this Deuout Lady forgetting (as it  |
+  were) Her former Groanings, did     |
+  listen attentiuely to the prayers   |
+  that were made for Her, without     |
+  fetching so much as one sob during  |
+  that time. And afterwards           |
+  rehearsing distinctly part of the   |
+  Lords Prayer, you might heare Her,  |
+  when S. _Stephens_ Vision and last  |
+  words[b] were read vnto Her, repeat | [Note b: _Act. 7. 53, 56, 59._]
+  very often these last words of Her  |
+  Sauiour[c]: _O Heauenly Father into | [Note c: _Luke 23. 46._]
+  thy hands I commend my spirit_.     |
+  Thus on a sudden I haue told you    | [Note A: _Reuel. 14. 13._]
+  how she _Dyed in the Lord_[A], and  |

+                                      |
+  And though we saw her afterwards    |
+  mouing her lips; but heard not her  |
+  Voice, no more than they that were  |
+  at Saint _Ambroses_ Death did heare | [Note d: _Paulin. in D. Ambros

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE

+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity

+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth

+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+

+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate

+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
