Etymology

Alteration (after words such as satiate and satisfy) of earlier sade (“to weary, satiate, satisfy”), from Middle English saden (“to weary, satisfy, become wearied or satiated”), from Old English sadian (“to satisfy, satiate, fill, be sated, become wearied”), from Proto-West Germanic *sadōn (“to satiate, become satisfied”), from Proto-Germanic *sadaz (“sated”), from Proto-Indo-European *seh₂- (“to satiate, be satisfied”). Cognate with Middle Low German saden, Middle High German saten (“to saturate, satisfy, satiate”), Icelandic seðja (“to satisfy”). Doublet of sad. See: Middle English 'saden', Old English 'sadian', Middle High German 'saten', Icelandic 'seðja'.
