A rare or archaic verb meaning to wrap up, enclose, or form into a volume or rounded mass.
From 'en-' (to cause) plus 'volume' (from Latin 'volumen,' meaning a roll or rounded mass). The verb suggests gathering something into a rounded, enclosed form.
This word is almost extinct, but it beautifully shows how English speakers once casually created verbs from nouns using 'en-' prefixes. 'Envolume' meant to gather into a bundle, like 'enwrap' or 'entangle' do today!
