Dict._ "Tameable, susceptive of taming; Untameable, not to be tamed."--_Ib._ "Reconcileable, Unreconcileable, Reconcileableness; Irreconcilable, Irreconcilably, Irreconcilableness."--_Johnson's Dict._ "We have thought it most adviseable to pay him some little attention."-- _Merchants Criticisms_.

But, according to Rule 10th, "The final _e_ of a primitive word is generally retained before an additional termination beginning with a consonant." Therefore, this _e_ should be retained; thus, _Diversely_.] "The event thereof contains a wholsome instruction."--_Bacon's Wisdom of the Ancients_, p. 17.
