Abuse from maiden is source of great satisfaction (8)
I believe the answer is:
mistreat
'abuse' is the definition.
(I know that abuse can be written as mistreat)
'maiden is source of great satisfaction' is the wordplay.
'maiden' becomes 'm' (cricket abbreviation).
'source of great satisfaction' becomes 'treat' (a treat is a source of satisfaction).
'm'+'is'+'treat'='MISTREAT'
'from' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for mistreat that I've seen before include "Deal unfairly with" , "Ill-use" , "Handle unfairly" , "Handle badly" , "Behave badly towards" .)
