Insult stifles true love (6)
I believe the answer is:
burton
This could be a double definition.
'insult stifles' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how one could define the other.
'true love' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how they can define each other.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for burton that I've seen is " Richard -, Melancholy author".)
