Ardently urge (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

exhort

(Other definitions for exhort that I've seen before include "Urge strongly and sincerely" , "Encourage, urge" , "Strongly encourage (someone to action)" , "Urge or advise strongly" , "Give great encouragement to" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
