He takes part in a spirited war dance (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

edward

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

'part in a spirited war dance' is the wordplay.
'part in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'EDWARD' can be found hidden inside 'spirited war dance'.

'takes' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for edward that I've seen before include "Sir -- Elgar, composer" , "Prince born in 1964" , "First name of Mr Rochester (Jane Eyre)" , "Name Lambert Simnel took when crowned" , "Boy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
