One who's easily shocked or scandalized (5)

I believe the answer is:

prude

(Other definitions for prude that I've seen before include "blusher?" , "may be shocking for me" , "Type overly concerned with decorum" , "One is excessively concerned with propriety and decorum" , "Mrs Grundy type" .)

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