Cajole with, perhaps, foot spas (4-4)
I believe the answer is:
soft-soap
'cajole' is the definition.
(I know that soft-soap is a type of cajole)
'perhaps foot spas' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' indicates an anagram.
'foot'+'spas'='footspas'
'footspas' is an anagram of 'SOFT-SOAP'.
'with' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for soft-soap that I've seen before include "Persuade by flattery" , "Use flattering talk" .)
