Etymology of WAST INCENSED

The phrase "wast incensed" does not have a unique etymology as it is actually a combination of two different words: "wast" and "incensed".

The word "wast" is the archaic second-person singular past tense of the verb "be" in Middle English. It was commonly used in early Modern English up until the 17th century before being replaced by "were" in contemporary English. So, "wast" simply means "you were".

On the other hand, "incensed" is derived from the Latin word "incensum", which is the past participle of the verb "incendere", meaning "to set on fire" or "to inflame". The word eventually made its way into Old French as "incens", and then into Middle English as "incensed".
