dompt
To bring (something) under control; to overcome, to subdue.
rare, transitive
And if he did apprehend (as they ſay) nothing by the iudgement of men, he had no need to carrie his mortification ſo farre, as to dompt and ſubject his moſt inward and ſecret motions, and to pull downe the moſt liuely and ſecret prouocations of his fleſh: but it had bene ſufficient for him to haue vſed diſſimulation, and ſome outward ſhew of pretended reformation.
Where it comes from
Borrowed from French dompter (“to break in, tame (an animal); to subdue, suppress”), from Middle French dompter, from Old French donter, danter, from Latin domitāre, the present active infinitive of domitō (“to tame”), from domō (“to break in, tame; to conquer, subdue, vanquish”) (ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *demh₂- (“to domesticate, tame”)) + -itō (suffix forming frequentative verbs). The English word is a doublet of daunt.
