Verse from Roderick (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ode

'verse' is the definition.
(ode is a type of poem or verse)

'from roderick' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'ODE' is hidden within 'roderick'.

(Other definitions for ode that I've seen before include "A poem celebrating person or event" , "Lyric poem" , "Verse form" , "Poem expressing noble feelings" , "(Railway)system" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
