What does "Vaulted o’er" mean?
If comes from The Lotus-Eater poem, I don't understand this phrase,
"Vaulted o’er the dark-blue sea."
What does "Vaulted o’er" mean?
Thank you
"O'er" is a contracted form of "over." "Vault" is a verb that means to jump, but it's being used metaphorically here. "Vaulted o'er the sea" is just a colorful way of saying they crossed the sea.
