Greatly dismay (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

appal

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

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for appal that I've seen before include "Shock, horrify" , "exhibiting dismay" , "Put at rest (suspicion)" , "Scandalise" , "Disgust" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Times.
