     off; prob. akin to E. shed, v.: cf. F. d['e]cider. Cf.
     Decision.]
     1. To cut off; to separate. [Obs.]
        [1913 Webster]
  
              Our seat denies us traffic here;
              The sea, too near, decides us from the rest.
                                                    --Fuller.

                                                    40.

        [1913 Webster]

From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.44 :   [ gcide ]

  Decided \De*cid"ed\, a.
     1. Free from ambiguity; unequivocal; unmistakable;
        unquestionable; clear; evident; as, a decided advantage.
        ``A more decided taste for science.'' --Prescott.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     2. Free from doubt or wavering; determined; of fixed purpose;
        fully settled; positive; resolute; as, a decided opinion
        or purpose.
  
     Syn: Decided, Decisive.
  
     Usage: We call a thing decisive when it has the power or
            quality of deciding; as, a decisive battle; we speak
            of it as decided when it is so fully settled as to
            leave no room for doubt; as, a decided preference, a
            decided aversion. Hence, a decided victory is one
            about which there is no question; a decisive victory
            is one which ends the contest. Decisive is applied
            only to things; as, a decisive sentence, a decisive
            decree, a decisive judgment. Decided is applied
            equally to persons and things. Thus we speak of a man
            as decided in his whole of conduct; and as having a
            decided disgust, or a decided reluctance, to certain
            measures. ``A politic caution, a guarded
            circumspection, were among the ruling principles of
            our forefathers in their most decided conduct.''
            --Burke. ``The sentences of superior judges are final,
            decisive, and irrevocable. --Blackstone.
            [1913 Webster]
