Die Martis, 9. Feb: 1640.  
WHereas complaint hath been made unto us by james Lord Arch-Bishop of Armagh, and Primate of all Ireland, that a certain Pamphlet hath been lately most injuriously fathered upon him and spread abroad under the false title of The Bishop of Armaghs direction to the house of Parliament, concerning the liturgy and episcopal government. It is this day ordered in the Commons House of Parliament, that the Master and company of Stationers, and all others whom it may concern, shall take such course for the suppressing of the said book, that they shall not suffer it to be put in print, or if it be already printed, not permit the same to be divulged. And if any man shall presume to print or publish the book above mentioned, That he or they shall be then liable to the Censure of the said House.
