Cover the woman with adult article (7)
I believe the answer is:
sheathe
'cover' is the definition.
(to sheathe something is to cover it)
'woman with adult article' is the wordplay.
'woman' becomes 'she' ().
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'adult' becomes 'a' (abbreviation).
'article' becomes 'the' (the definite article).
'she'+'a'+'the'='SHEATHE'
'the' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for sheathe that I've seen before include "Put away (a sword)" , "stow away safely" , "Put (a sword) it its cover" , "Encase in protection" , "Cover in case" .)
