Insert , transitive verb

[Latin insertus, past participle of inserere to insert; pref. in- in + serere to join, connect. See Series.]

To set within something; to put or thrust in; to introduce; to cause to enter, or be included, or contained; as, to insert a scion in a stock; to insert a letter, word, or passage in a composition; to insert an advertisement in a newspaper.
These words were very weakly inserted where they will be so liable to misconstruction. — Bp. Stillingfleet
