Ignited, set fire to (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lit

I believe this is a double definition.

'ignited' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'set fire to' is the second definition.
(as in lighting a fire)

(Other definitions for lit that I've seen before include "Settled" , "books etc?" , "was illuminating" , "fine writing in condensed form" , "landed here" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
