"How often I have __ upon the grass": Dickens (4)

I believe the answer is:

lain

(Other definitions for lain that I've seen before include "(Had) remained" , "Past participle of lay" , "Past participle of lie" , "Set down horizontally" , "Rested; nail (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
