I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

But I can't explain it at all! Could you help me understand?

(Other definitions for sublime that I've seen before include "Glorious; supreme" , "Majestic" , "Of great excellence or beauty, awe-inspiring" , "Exalted, lofty" , "Awe-inspiring - exalted" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
