Agree to take a look at and be delighted by (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

consent

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'agree to' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'a look at and be delighted by' is the wordplay.
'a look at' becomes 'co' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'and' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation for 'and').
'be delighted' becomes 'sent' (I've seen this in another clue).
'by' says to put letters next to each other.
'co'+'n'+'sent'='CONSENT'

'take' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for consent that I've seen before include "Concur" , "Agree(ment)" , "Agree or permit" , "Give permission for something" , "Permission, agree" .)
