<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">count perhaps</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that count is a type of nobleman)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for nobleman that I've seen before include "Member of peerage" , "Titled person" , "Earl, say" , "High-ranking male" , "count, perhaps" .)
