Lain according to the oxford dictionary
Subject: Lain according to the oxford dictionary
According to what I found it would be lain. This is from askoxford.com
— USAGE The words lay and lie are often used incorrectly. You lay something, as in they are going to lay the carpet, but you lie down on a bed or other flat surface. The past tense and past participle of lay is laid, as in they laid the groundwork or she had laid careful plans; the past tense of lie is lay (he lay on the floor) and the past participle is lain (she had lain on the bed for hours).
