Commentary

The affix सिच् before आत्मनेपद affixes is कित् after स्था 'to stand' and घु मृषस्तितिक्षायाम् 1.2.20 verbs, and these verbs change their आ into इ before these terminations.
The roots स्था 'to stand,' दा 'to give,' धा 'to place', दै 'to pity', धे 'to feed', दो 'to cut' change their vowels into इ before the terminations of the Aorist of the Atmanepada ; and those terminations are also kit. As उपास्थित, 'he worshipped', उपास्थिषाताम्, उपास्थिषत; 'he gave', अधित 'he fed.'
