    Present participle and gerund of haven.
    Note

    The noun's two kinds of refuge carry over into this verb form. Havening a boat means bringing it into a protected harbor; havening people or animals means giving them a safe place to stay. The spelling haven also once served as an old plural of have (they haven), but that obsolete form never took -ing, so havening always means sheltering.
