Decays (4)
I believe the answer is:
rots
'decays' is the definition.
(rotting is a kind of decaying)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for rots that I've seen before include "Decomposes" , "Decays" .)
I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, The Star Tribune, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Telegraph, the Universal and The Mirror.
