<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">vitally important</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for essential that I've seen before include "Vital" , "something necessary" , "must-have item" , "Crucial" , "So is certain oil-production" .)
