All sacred in recital? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wholly

'all' is the definition.
('wholly' can be a synonym of 'all')

'sacred in recital?' is the wordplay.
'sacred' becomes 'holy' ('holy' can be similar in meaning to 'sacred').
'in recital?' shows a homophone (sound like) (I've seen 'in recital' mean this).
'holy' is a homophone of 'WHOLLY'.

(Other definitions for wholly that I've seen before include "in every area" , "Absolutely!" , "in every respect" , "Altogether" , "Completely" .)
