"Wert attracted" is an archaic verb phrase commonly used in old English literature and poetry. It combines the verb "wert," the second person singular past tense form of "be" (from the archaic "thou wert"), and the verb "attracted," meaning to draw or pull towards something or someone.
The phrase implies that the subject, represented by "wert," experienced a feeling or pull towards someone or something, indicating a strong emotional, physical, or intellectual appeal. It suggests a deep attraction or captivation, often associated with romantic love, but could also extend to other forms of fascination or allure.
"Wert attracted" may describe a state of being in which the subject was irresistibly drawn towards another person, perhaps due to their beauty, charisma, or other attractive qualities. It conveys a sense of being enchanted, smitten, or deeply interested in someone or something.
This phrase was more commonly used during the Middle English period and the early modern English era, notably in the works of Shakespeare and other poets of the time. While it has become archaic and is no longer in widespread use today, "wert attracted" continues to be encountered when studying and analyzing older texts, offering insights into the language and cultural context of those historical periods.

Etymology of WERT ATTRACTED
The phrase "wert attracted" is not a standalone word with an independent etymology. It seems to be a combination of the past subjunctive form of the verb "to be" ("wert") and the past participle form of the verb "attract" ("attracted"). Each of these words has its own separate etymology.
The verb "to be" is derived from Old English and can be traced back to West Germanic languages. The Old English word "wesan" eventually evolved into Middle English "be" and "am/are/is" as different forms of the verb "to be". The past subjunctive form "wert" was used in the second person singular in Middle English.
The verb "attract" has Latin origins. It stems from the Latin word "attrahere", which combines "ad" (meaning "to") and "trahere" (meaning "draw").
