Sensate \Sen"sate\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. {Sensated}; p. pr. & vb.
   n. {Sensating}.] [See {Sensated}.]
   To feel or apprehend more or less distinctly through a sense,
   or the senses; as, to sensate light, or an odor.

         As those of the one are sensated by the ear, so those
         of the other are by the eye.             --R. Hooke.
