The discrete second Painlevé equation dP
II is mapped to the second Painlevé equation P
II by its continuous limit, and then, as shown by Kajiwara et al., a rational solution of dP
II also reduces to that of P
II. In this paper, regarding dP
II as a difference equation, we present a certain asymptotic solution that reduces to a triply-truncated solution of P
II in this continuous limit. In a special case our solution corresponds to a rational one of dP
II. Furthermore we show the existence of families of solutions having sequential limits to truncated solutions of P
II.
