Keep; grasp (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hold

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">I believe this is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">keep</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(both can mean to have or possess something)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">grasp</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that grasp can be written as hold)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for hold that I've seen before include "See 12" , "Keep in one's grasp" , "Continue" , "defend successfully" , "Keep; part of ship" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Telegraph.
