This, then, is the first of Jeremiah's great thoughts of God, and it means 'The Lord God omnipotent reigneth, there is none else but He, and His will runs authoritative and supreme into all corners of the universe.
Ah! richer than he, though his soul reigneth o'er The mighty dominion of genius and lore, And the infinite circle of song. Strong, and proud, and self-depending, Man's cold bosom beats alone; Heart with heart divinely blending, In the love that gods have known, Soul's sweet interchange of feeling, Melting tears he never knows, Each hard sense the hard one steeling, Arms against a world of foes.
She had been instructed as to her conduct by those who knew, and was told that she must not rise when the others stood at the singing of the Hallelujah chorus. When that magnificent chorus was being sung and the singers were shouting "Hallelujah! hallelujah! hallelujah! for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth," she sat with great difficulty.
That prayer was answered if we are to believe the records of Norman, not English, monks in England after the Conquest, by the speedy extinction of the most guilty families among the Norman conquerors.

"The seven candle-sticks which thou sawest are the seven churches." "The ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings." "The waters which thou sawest ... are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues." "The woman which thou sawest is that great city which reigneth over the kings of the earth," etc.
This printer also says in his preface that the book was first written in the time of King Edward III, "In whose time it pleased God to open the eyes of many to see his truth, giving them boldness of heart to open their mouths and cry out against the works of darkness. . . . There is no manner of vice that reigneth in any estate of man which this writer hath not godly, learnedly, and wittily rebuked."*
Whether, therefore, the mother or the daughters are referred to, it is all "Babylon the Great," because it is all the same family and is a part of that "GREAT CITY which reigneth over the kings of the earth." Chap. 17:18.
"Would I were in God's place for one day!" said Agostino, speaking through his clenched teeth. "May I be forgiven for saying so." "We are hot and hasty," said Father Antonio, "ever ready to call down fire from heaven, but, after all, 'the Lord reigneth, let the earth rejoice. 'Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness. Our dear father is sustained in spirit and full of love.
Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously. Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof. Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice
