Trespass. The Law adjudgeth every tres∣••ass to be done with force and arms, therefore ••e Plaintiff, that saith the Defendant took his ••orse with force and arms, (though he came with∣••ut weapon) saith truly that he took him with 〈…〉〈…〉rce, as the Law meaneth force. Dr. and Stu∣••ent cap. 14.
If vi & armis be not in the Writ, it shall abate, 〈…〉〈…〉itz. nat. brev.
The Law accounteth all to be vis, which is con∣trary to Ius. If I do but hawk or walk for my pastime or recreation over another mans ground, he may have his action of trespass against me, quare vi & armis, for though I meant no harm to him or his, yet I might not pass upon his grouad without Licence.
The form of a Writ for living things, as Horses,* 1.1 is coeperunt & abduxerunt, for a dead thing, coepe∣runt & asportaverunt.
