2.See corresponding entry in Unabridged delight, bliss, elation. Ecstasy, rapture, transport, exaltation share a sense of being taken or moved out of one's self or one's normal state, and entering a state of intensified or heightened feeling. Ecstasy suggests an intensification of emotion so powerful as to produce a trancelike dissociation from all but the single overpowering feeling:an ecstasy of rage, grief, love.Rapture shares the power of ecstasy but most often refers to an elevated sensation of bliss or delight, either carnal or spiritual:the rapture of first love.Transport, somewhat less extreme than either ecstasy or rapture, implies a strength of feeling that results in expression of some kind:They jumped up and down in a transport of delight.Exaltation refers to a heady sense of personal well-being so powerful that one is lifted above normal emotional levels and above normal people:wild exaltation at having finally broken the record.
