Pontiff (4)
I believe the answer is:
pope
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">pontiff</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that pontiff can be written as pope)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for pope that I've seen before include "Vatican leader" , "author" , "served in the Vatican" , "Satirist" , "Holy man" .)
