burned W. S. Walker (Vers., p. 40): Probably the poets of that age could not, or would not, use confirm'd, &c. (rm, &c., followed by d), as disyllables, &c., on account of the then mode of pronouncing rm, rn, &c., and therefore there was no metrical convenience to be served by suppressing the e in ed. I am inclined to think from what I have observed that they usually retained it in such cases. [The present line quoted, among others, in illustration.]

Ciment W. A. Wright: With the accent on the first syllable, as in Ant. & Cleo., III, ii, 29, ‘The piece of virtue, which is set Betwixt us as the cement of our love.’
