bask

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

'lie in the sun' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I don't understand the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for bask that I've seen before include "Sun oneself (like a kind of shark?)" , "Lie in the sun" , "Lie in warmth" , "Sunbathe" , "Soak up sun" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
