Gradually fade and have to be brought back for burial? (3,4)
I believe the answer is:
die away
'gradually fade' is the definition.
(to die away is to gradually fade out)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
(Another definition for die away that I've seen is " slowly fade out".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
