Dismiss consequence of ‘exeunt omnes’? (4,3)
I believe the answer is:
cast off
If this is the answer, I'm afraid I cannot explain it.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cast off that I've seen before include "Eliminate stitches - prepare for sea" , "Stop knitting - prepare for sea" , "abandoned" , "Rejected" , "When the stage has emptied" .)
