How to manipulate circumstances beneficially to test wisdom of Delphi prophet perhaps (4,3,6)
I believe the answer is:
work the oracle
'how to manipulate circumstances beneficially to test wisdom' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'of delphi prophet perhaps' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'of' could be 'o' and 'o' is located in the answer.
'prophet' could be 'oracle' ('oracle' can be a synonym of 'prophet') and 'oracle' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for work the oracle that I've seen is " raise money".)
