suveran → supreme lord, supreme ruler

Quote
SUV'ERAN, a. [L. supernus, superus, super. The barbarous Norman word souvereign, seems to be formed of L. super and regnum; a strange blunder.]
1. Supreme in power; possessing supreme dominion; as a suveran prince. The Creator is the suveran ruler of the universe.
2. Supreme; chief; superior to all others.
3. Supremely efficacious; superior to all others; as a suveran remedy.
4. Supreme; pertaining to the first magistrate of a nation; as suveran authority.
SUV'ERAN, n. A supreme lord or ruler; one who possesses the highest authority without control. Some kings are suverans in their dominions; the authority of others is limited. The Creator is the suveran of all that he has made.
1. A supreme magistrate, lord or king.
O let my suv'ran turn away his face.
