Elizabethan courtier (7)

I believe the answer is:

raleigh

'elizabethan courtier' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for raleigh that I've seen before include "Queen's favourite" , "Tudor explorer" , "navigator and author" , "Tudor courtier" , "SECOND PART OF 12 ACROSS" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
