Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and NESBITT and FERGUSON, JJ.

PER CURIAM.

The amount of permanent periodic alimony is excessive in the light of the evidence concerning the husband's ability to pay, Parham v. Parham, 385 So.2d 107 (Fla. 3d DCA 1980); Blum v. Blum, 382 So.2d 52 (Fla. 3d DCA 1980); the cause is therefore remanded solely for the trial court to determine a reasonable, substantially lower award. The judgment under review is otherwise entirely affirmed.
