To place in or transform into a paradise; to make supremely happy or blessed.
From em- (cause to be) + paradise. 'Paradise' comes from Persian 'pairidaeza' (enclosed garden), then Greek and Latin, referring to the Garden of Eden or any perfect place.
This beautiful, archaic verb shows how Renaissance writers loved using em- to create poetic verbs—Shakespeare's contemporaries would 'emparadise' lovers to show extreme happiness, a much more dramatic alternative to simply saying 'make happy.'
