After a time, be inclined to go (6)
I believe the answer is:
attend
'go' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with perception as well as being verbs in their base form.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'after a time be inclined' is the wordplay.
'after' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'time' becomes 't'.
'be inclined' becomes 'tend' (I've seen this before).
'a' next to 't' is 'at'.
'at'+'tend'='ATTEND'
'to' is the link.
(Other definitions for attend that I've seen before include "Be present at, or accompany" , "Escort (someone)" , "Being 16 [LISTEN]" , "notice" , "chaperon" .)
