<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">took a break</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(resting is a kind of taking a break)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for rested that I've seen before include "Took a break from activities" , "Took one's ease" , "Reposed or took a breather" , "Took break in desert" , "Relaxed, took a break" .)
