These are both first person, singular, passive verbs, but 'delectabar' means I am pleased while 'dilatabar' means I am extended, magnified. In the context of the sentence, 'delectabar' makes more sense. It is followed by 'circa' meaning concerning. So, 'Et hoc modo delectabar circa societatem nostram' means In this way, I am pleased concerning our society.
