A woman's high spirits (6)
I believe the answer is:
graces
'spirits' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both human attributes as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for graces that I've seen before include "In Greek myth, three beautiful goddesses" , "Three Greek goddesses of beauty, charm and skill" , "(Three) sister goddesses famed for their beauty" , "Three sister goddesses who have the power to grant beauty, charm and happiness." , "In Greek myth, the three goddesses of beauty" .)
