I understand this as "ever-increasing pleasure". (As an aside, I used 
{HuchHom Huch Huch'a'} in translating the phrase "They could not be 
purchased for any price" in my WoT story.)

As DloraH points out, {bel} can also be a verb. Also, KGT furnishes us with 
the word {DuQ} "touch (emotionally), affect emotionally".
