Paul, have some respect! (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

revere

I believe this is a double definition.

'paul' is the first definition.
(18th-century silversmith Paul Revere)

'some respect' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'have' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for revere that I've seen before include "Idolise, worship" , "Greatly respect" , "Worship, usually a deity" , "Pay homage to" , "Hold in very high regard" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
