When or where my youthful spirit Found this sparkling isle of bliss, Which the angels might inherit (With no stint of happiness), I 've no power to tell in numbers, And slight knowledge where to place That which, haunting all my slumbers, No existence has in space!

Like a planet lost at birth, Till the enamored soul, grown fonder— Meets it midway from the Earth! - by Rebecca S. Nichols, 1851 [En los reinos inmarchitables del pais de las hadas, - En el entorno de la Imaginación, donde los estandartes, sedosos, etéreos, flotan por encima de los muros del tiempo; Hacia allí pudo haber deambulado esta Isla del Poeta.

I found this list of synonyms for the verb enamor: fascinate, bewitch, enchant and enrapture. However, they are not perfect synonyms; depending on the context, some of the time you can use any of them with little difference in meaning, and some of the time the meanings are very different. Also, the poet published her poem nearly 170 years ago; it's possible that the commonly-accepted meaning and connotation of the word during her time and in her community is different than the meaning and connotation it has for me within my community. Also, Spanish is my second language, and I haven't encountered translation equivalents for enamored very often; it's possible that hechizado is a valid translation for the poet's intended meaning of enamored in this context.
