Exhorts; impulses (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

urges

I believe this is a double definition.

'exhorts' is the first definition.
('urge' can be a synonym of 'exhort')

'impulses' is the second definition.
('urge' can be a synonym of 'impulse')

(Other definitions for urges that I've seen before include "Exhorts or prods" , "Compulsions" , "Presses to do something" , "Advocates strongly" , "Drives" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
