ced- cessum; fi-n-d- fissum; sci-n-d- scissum; met- messum ; fre-n-d fressum; fod-i- fossum ; pat-i- passum; quat-i- quassum.

And, if in the two places of Plautus, obtrudo) obstrudo is given, the reading is correct, here the real compound: as in each place it is used of putting cannot, therefore, accept Corssen's view, i. 121.
