Satiate \Sa"ti*ate\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. {Satiated}; p. pr. &
   vb. n. {Satiating}.]
   1. To satisfy the appetite or desire of; to feed to the full;
      to furnish enjoyment to, to the extent of desire; to sate;
      as, to satiate appetite or sense.

            These [smells] rather woo the sense than satiate it.
                                                  --Bacon.

            I may yet survive the malice of my enemies, although
            they should be satiated with my blood. --Eikon
                                                  Basilike.

   2. To full beyond natural desire; to gratify to repletion or
      loathing; to surfeit; to glut.

   3. To saturate. [Obs.] --Sir I. Newton.

   Syn: To satisfy; sate; suffice; cloy; gorge; overfill;
        surfeit; glut.

   Usage: {Satiate}, {Satisfy}, {Content}. These words differ
          principally in degree. To content is to make
          contented, even though every desire or appetite is not
          fully gratified. To satisfy is to appease fully the
          longings of desire. To satiate is to fill so
          completely that it is not possible to receive or enjoy
          more; hence, to overfill; to cause disgust in.

                Content with science in the vale of peace.
                                                  --Pope.

                His whole felicity is endless strife; No peace,
                no satisfaction, crowns his life. --Beaumont.

                He may be satiated, but not satisfied. --Norris.
