To cover with leaves or to clothe/furnish with foliage.
Formed by adding the prefix 'be-' (meaning to make or cause to be) to 'leaf,' following Old English patterns like 'bejewel' or 'bedeck.' The 'be-' prefix transforms 'leaf' into a verb meaning to provide with or cover in leaves.
The 'be-' prefix is like a linguistic magic wand—slap it on almost any noun and you can turn it into a verb, which is why Shakespeare could 'bedazzle' and poets could 'beleaf' entire forests in a single word.
