Embodiment or perfect example (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

epitome

This clue is a double definition.

'embodiment' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'perfect example' is the second definition.
(the epitome of a thing is a perfect example of it)

(Other definitions for epitome that I've seen before include "Typical example, prototype" , "Perfect example of a quality" , "Abstract" , "ie Tempo (anag.)" , "Paradigm" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and The Irish Times.
