- rule; be sovereign
Meaning
Hera and Health each rule over all in closely comparable lines (XVI.7; LXVIII.11). The verb asserts comprehensive authority within each hymn’s praise. Its repetition should not be normalized into exclusive sovereignty possessed by only one goddess, nor used alone to identify Hera and Health.
