Assume power, having deviously enchanted others (6,3,6)

I believe the answer is:

ascend the throne

'assume power' is the definition.
(to ascend the throne is to take power)

'deviously enchanted others' is the wordplay.
'deviously' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'enchanted'+'others'='enchantedothers'
'enchantedothers' is an anagram of 'ASCEND THE THRONE'.

'having' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
