<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">qualified to be chosen</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for eligible that I've seen before include "Satisfying the appropriate conditions" , "Available, qualifying" , "Qualified or fit as bachelor may be" , "Qualified to be chosen, say a bachelor" , "Regarded as desirable, say for marriage" .)
