Bishop even running round - fast kind (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

benevolent

'kind' is the definition.
(associated in meaning)

'bishop even running round fast' is the wordplay.
'bishop' becomes 'B' (chess abbreviation).
'running' indicates anagramming the letters.
'round' becomes 'o' (round can mean a round object).
'fast' becomes 'lent' (Lent is a period of fasting in Christianity).
'even' anagrammed gives 'enev'.
'b'+'enev'+'o'+'lent'='BENEVOLENT'

(Other definitions for benevolent that I've seen before include "Charitable" , "Well meaning, kindly" , "Kind" , "Philanthropic" , "Well-meaning, kindly" .)
