Be the personification of (9)

I believe the answer is:

epitomise

(Other definitions for epitomise that I've seen before include "Typify (S, not Z)" , "Embody perfectly a stated quality" , "Act as representative" , "Abstract" , "to be a perfect example" .)

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