Incompossible \In`com*pos"si*ble\, a. [Pref. in- not + compossible: cf. F. incompossible.] Not capable of joint existence; incompatible; inconsistent. [Obs.] [1913 Webster] Ambition and faith . . . are . . . incompossible. --Jer. Taylor. -- In`com*pos`si*bil"i*ty, n. [Obs.] [1913 Webster]
The Devil's Dictionary (1881-1906):

INCOMPOSSIBLE, adj. Unable to exist if something else exists. Two things are incompossible when the world of being has scope enough for one of them, but not enough for both -- as Walt Whitman's poetry and God's mercy to man. Incompossibility, it will be seen, is only incompatibility let loose. Instead of such low language as "Go heel yourself -- I mean to kill you on sight," the words, "Sir, we are incompossible," would convey and equally significant intimation and in stately courtesy are altogether superior.
