to_o charge_v any_o inland_a county_n with_o make_v of_o ship_n and_o furnish_v they_o with_o master_n mariner_n and_o soldier_n at_o their_o charge_n which_o be_v far_o remote_a from_o the_o sea_n be_v not_o legal_a nor_o warrant_v by_o any_o former_a precedent_n for_o it_o command_v a_o unreasonable_a and_o impossible_a thing_n and_o then_o the_o writ_n command_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o be_v unreasonable_a and_o not_o possible_a for_o the_o party_n command_v of_o themselves_o to_o perform_v without_o help_n of_o other_o county_n be_v always_o illegal_a for_o it_o be_v a_o rule_n that_o lex_fw-la non_fw-la cogit_fw-la ad_fw-la impossibilia_fw-la therefore_o if_o one_o by_o covenant_n bind_v himself_o to_o do_v a_o thing_n impossible_a the_o covenant_n be_v void_a this_o appear_v by_o the_o book_n case_n in_o 40._o ed._n 3._o fo._n 6._o where_o the_o case_n be_v express_o that_o if_o a_o man_n do_v covenant_n to_o do_v a_o thing_n that_o be_v impossible_a the_o covenant_n be_v

to_o be_v his_o surety_n therefore_o the_o law_n account_v it_o unreasonable_a and_o so_o void_a and_o this_o appear_v by_o the_o book_n case_n 17._o ed._n 4._o fol._n 5._o wherein_o it_o be_v so_o resolve_v so_o this_o writ_n command_v the_o sheriff_n and_o inhabitant_n of_o a_o inland_a county_n to_o find_v a_o ship_n furnish_v with_o master_n and_o mariner_n whereas_o there_o be_v not_o any_o

the_o county_n never_o see_v a_o ship_n nor_o know_v what_o belong_v to_o master_n or_o mariner_n of_o ship_n and_o the_o country_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o seek_v man_n out_o of_o the_o county_n for_o
