s overturning Turkey to make
way for this seed royal. But where is this seed royal? Answer: It is on
the English throne. Listen carefully to the following:

Jeremiah tells us that with him he had the daughters of Zedekiah, who had
by some means escaped the destroying edicts of Nebuchadnezzar (Jer.
xliii. 6). And from Jer. xliv. 14, we learn that they visited Egypt, and
from Jer. xliv. 28, we learn that a small number escaped. Now Jeremiah,
being the only prophet in Judah at that time, had a right to take charge
of the royal seed. He could not stay in Egypt, nor in Palestine, nor
would he go to Babylon. Where, then, did the prophet go? He no doubt
took ship with the Danites, and sailed for Cornwall, in England, for this
place was called Tarshish. We learn from Ezekiel the ships of Dan traded
in tin, and other things. History and tradition both agree that there
landed on the coast of Ireland in the North, a divine man and a princess.
God had promised to Jeremiah his life wherever he went. "But thy life
will I give thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest" (Jer. xlv.
5).

The North of Ireland had been settled with the Tribe of Dan; they at once
understood who their visitor was. They called him Olam Folla, meaning a
Divine man or teacher. The princess was called Tea Tephi, the beautiful
one from the East. This princess was married to Heremon, of Ulster, the
king of Lothair Croffin, for such was the name of the city of Tara. This
word Tara is Arat spelled backward. The Hebrew reads from right to left;
English left to right. Lothair Croffin was changed into Tara at the time
of the wedding. Tara means law. Thus began the seed of David to take
root, and from there it spread over all Ireland, then to Scotland, thence
to England, and Jacob's Stone in Westminster Abbey marks the journey of
David's throne, and has always kept with the seed, and they have been
always crowned on it. Ezekiel's riddle is at once solved. The tender
twigs were Zedekiah's daughters. One of these twigs was planted by the
great waters in a land of traffic. Our Episcopalian friends intended by
their beautiful service to aid the members of their communion to read in
order, and through the Bible, or a given portion of each chapter, once
per year. But strange to say, this 17th chapter of Ezekiel, they have
left out both of the Old and New Lectionary. It is itself a riddle, why
