Give life to (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

animate

quicken

'give life to' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for animate that I've seen before include "Put life into as with cartoon" , "Instil life into - say cartoon" , "Provide inspiration" , "Living" , "Encourage" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
