Send lace out to be purified (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cleansed

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

'send lace out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates anagramming the letters (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'send'+'lace'='sendlace'
'sendlace' with letters rearranged gives 'CLEANSED'.

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for cleansed that I've seen before include "Purified" , "Absolved" , "Leeds can (anag.)" , "missing the filthy bits?" .)
