Yet Zeus, albeit most absolute of will, Shall turn to meekness,-such a marriage-rite He holds in preparation, which anon Shall thrust him headlong from his Gerent seat Adown the abysmal void, and so the curse His father Chronos muttered in his fall, As he fell from his ancient throne and cursed, Shall be accomplished wholly.

God whose Vice-Gerent We are, hath made Us a King over divers Kingdomes, and We have no other desire, nor designe, but to govern them by their own Lawes, and the Kirks in them by their own Canons and Constitutions.
