Furies in Ireland? Certainly! (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

erinyes

'furies' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'ireland? certainly' is the wordplay.
'ireland?' becomes 'erin'.
'certainly' becomes 'yes' (I've seen this before).
'erin'+'yes'='ERINYES'

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for erinyes that I've seen before include "Snake-haired creatures" , "Monsters" , "Snake-haired goddesses" , "Furies (Greek myth)" , "Fury repeatedly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
