IN-HAB'IT, v.t. [L. inhabito; in and habito, to dwell.]

To live or dwell in; to occupy as a place of settled residence. Wild beasts inhabit the forest; fishes inhabit the ocean, lakes and rivers; men inhabit cities and houses. Thus saith the high and lofty One, that inhabiteth eternity. – Is. lvii.
