Before, quaintly (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ere

'before quaintly' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for ere that I've seen before include "Before (in poetry)" , "Before, poetically" , "Old word for before" , "Before (literary)" , "Archaic word for before - a palindrome" .)

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