605. Stems in #-ē-# of the second class are declined as follows:

lūxuriēs, _extravagance_, stem lūxuriē-, F.

_Nom._ lūxuriēs, _Acc._ lūxuriem, _Abl._ lūxuriē.

606. A few examples of the genitive of these stems are found: as,

#perniciī#, #perniciēs#, or #perniciē#, _ruin_ (Cic.); #rabiēs#, _fury_

(Lucr.); #aciē#, _edge of battle_ (Sall., Caes., auct. B. Afr.),

#faciē#, _make_ (Plaut., Lucil.), #speciē#, _looks_ (Caes.); #aciēī#

(auct. B. Afr.). And a very few of the dative: as, #aciēī# twice

(Caes.); #perniciēī#, #perniciī# (Nep.); #perniciē# (Liv.).

607. #ēluviēs#, _offscouring_, _wash_, has the nominative of the plural,

and #glaciēs#, _ice_, has the accusative of the plural. Five words only

have the nominative and accusative plural:

seriēs, aciēs, _row_, _edge_,

speciēs, faciēs, _look_, _make_,

effigiēs, _likeness_.

[Erratum:

601 (table) ... rēs, (_the_) _things_

rēs (_the_)]
