pagan

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This might be a double definition.

'far' is the first definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'sacred paganini piece' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how one could define the other.

'from' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pagan that I've seen before include "Infidel" , "Unchristian" , "One who follows a polytheistic or pre-Christian religion, but not a Jew" , "Person without any conventional religion" , "Not conventionally religious" .)
