बसत

"बसत" in English means "sitting" or "settling."

Here, 'बसतो' (the root form being 'बसत') is used to denote the action of sitting down on something.

Here, 'बसले' (from 'बसत') is used to refer to the audience being seated in a composed manner.

In this example, the word 'बसली' (derived from 'बसत') conveys the meaning of 'settling down' temporarily or gathering.
