redazzle
A quick perusal of on line dictionaries indicates that reiterate has more of a repetitive connotation than does iterate. That is, reiterate has more of a feeling of "enough already" not present in the less overbearing iterate.
But perhaps only the ill-iterate would retain sufficient feeling for the nuances of spoken language to detect that.
Dazzle is of course from an English (or possibly Norse, but it entered the English language early enough) stem and thus takes the English intensifier be-.
I trust I may be allowed sufficient time to browse a brick and mortar dictionary to find a re- verb that will satisfy your requirements, Dub Dub'?
