Not spoil (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

keep

'not spoil' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for keep that I've seen before include "Castle tower; cost of maintenance" , "Subsistence" , "Board and lodgings, perhaps" , "Continue" , "Stock" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
