   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.
