Crossword Genius

Some divine attribute to be dapper (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

neat

'dapper' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'some divine attribute to' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (some parts of the word are used).
'NEAT' is hidden in the letters of 'divine attribute to'.

'be' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for neat that I've seen before include "Tidy cattle" , "well-kept" , "cows earlier" , "beef" , "Smart" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
