Āsita *Āsita 1 [= asita 1 ?] "having eaten", but probably māsita (past participle of mr̥ś to touch, cf. Sanskrit mr̥śita, which normally becomes massita), since it only occurs in combinations where m precedes, viz. Ja II 446 (dumapakkani-m-asita, where commentary reading is māsita and explains khāditvā asita (v.l. āsita) dhāta); Miln 302 (visam-āsita affected with poison = visamāsita). {116} Cf. also the form māsi(n) touching, eating at Ja VI 354 (tiṇa°, explained by commentary as khādaka). — āsita at Ja V 70 is very doubtful, v.l. āsina and asita; commentary explains by dhāta suhita page 73. *Āsita 2 [registered as such with meaning "performed" by Hardy in Nett Index] — at Vv-a 276 is better read with v.l. bhāsita (°vādana etc.).
