enjoined

Enjoin \En*join"\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. {Enjoined}; p. pr. & vb.
   n. {Enjoining}.] [F. enjoindre, L. injungere to join into,
   charge, enjoin; in + jungere to join. See {Join}, and cf.
   {Injunction}.]
   1. To lay upon, as an order or command; to give an injunction
      to; to direct with authority; to order; to charge.
      [1913 Webster]

            High matter thou enjoin'st me.        --Milton.
      [1913 Webster]

            I am enjoined by oath to observe three things.
                                                  --Shak.
      [1913 Webster]

   2. (Law) To prohibit or restrain by a judicial order or
      decree; to put an injunction on.
      [1913 Webster]

            This is a suit to enjoin the defendants from
            disturbing the plaintiffs.            --Kent.
      [1913 Webster]

   Note: Enjoin has the force of pressing admonition with
         authority; as, a parent enjoins on his children the
         duty of obedience. But it has also the sense of
         command; as, the duties enjoined by God in the moral
         law. "This word is more authoritative than direct, and
         less imperious than command." --Johnson.
         [1913 Webster]
