King John, bethink thee what thou tak'st in hand On pain of interdiction of thy land.

Alexander had determined to excommunicate him at Easter, and to lay an interdiction on all his lands.

Washington seems, however, to have disregarded the interdiction after Yorktown.

I did not hear of this circumstance until after we had left Sulu, and have little doubt now that the interdiction against our gentlemen visiting some parts of the town was owing to the fear they had of the discovery of this plunder.

" "If I procure her for your majesty, will you withdraw your interdiction from me?" rejoined the earl.

The same just and benevolent motives which produced the interdiction in force against this criminal conduct will doubtless be felt by Congress in devising further means of suppressing the evil.
