You made a particularly unfortunate accidental word switch up. I imagine you meant "ravaged".

ravished — _fill (someone) with intense delight; enrapture._

Captain Nitpick here...

That's one definition. It can also mean to carry someone off by force, to kidnap. "Carried away" is the root idea, but it doesn't have to be "by delight".

Also "accept" is not "except".
