Deceive, beguile (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

delude

This clue is a double definition.

'deceive' is the first definition.
(I know that deceive can be written as delude)

'beguile' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for delude that I've seen before include "Kid" , "Cause to believe a lie" , "Make someone believe something that's not true" , "Mislead; deceive" , "Fool, deceive" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
