Defender of the Faith [ fidei defensor, Lat.], a title of the Sovereign of England, as Catholic is of the King of Spain, and Most Christian was of the King of France. It is still stamped (F.D. or Fid. Def.) on British coins. These titles were originally given by the Pope; and that of Defensor Fidei was first conferred in 1521 by Leo. X. on henry VIII. (but personally only), as a reward for writing against Martin Luther. In 1538 Pope Paul III., on King Henry's suppressing the monasteries, in the Bulla citatoria regis Angli' 'delivered over Henry's soul to the devil, and his dominions to the first invader,' without, however, expressly withdrawing the title; but by 35 Hen. 8, c. 3, the title was expressly given by Parliament, and has continued to be used by all succeeding Sovereigns of this country to this day, notwithstanding the repeal of 35 Hen. 8, c. 3, by 1 & 2 Ph. & M. c. 8, s. 4 (or 20), and the continuation of that repeal by 1 Eliz. c. 1, s. 4 (or 13).

Reasonable restriction
Reasonable restriction, the expression 'reasonable restriction' signifies that the limitation imposed on a person in enjoyment of the right should not be arbitrary or of an excessive nature, beyond what is required in the interests of the public. The test of reasonableness, wherever prescribed, should be applied to each individual statute impugned, and no abstract standard, or general pattern of reasonableness can be laid down as applicable in all cases. The restriction which arbitrarily or excessively invades the right cannot be said to contain the quality of reasonableness and unless it strikes a proper balance between the freedom guaranteed in art. 19(1)(g) and the social control permitted by cl. (6) of art. 19, it must be held to be wanting in that quality, Bishamber Dayal Chandra Mohan v.
