Green’s Dictionary of Slang

occupy v.

[listed as a synon. for copulation in Florio, Worlde of Wordes (1598): ‘Fottere, to iape, to sard, to fucke, to swive, to occupy.’ Like many taboo terms it moved from SE (it is used ten times in the Authorized Version) once it had been perceived as vulgar. Shakespeare notes this in Henry IV Pt II (1597), ‘A captaine? Gods light these villaines wil make the word as odious as the word occupy, which was an excellent good worde before it was ill sorted’; cit. 1719 is double entendre]
