An IP complained about this Usage notes section in Feedback. Copied verbatim from Webster 1913 with minimal editing in the 20 years since, and full of verbiage like:

"Ability has reference to the active exercise of our faculties. It implies not only native vigor of mind, but that ease and promptitude of execution which arise from mental training. "
