Humbled, degraded (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abased

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'humbled' is the first definition.
('abase' can be a synonym of 'humble')

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

(Other definitions for abased that I've seen before include "Put down" , "Humbled, mortified" , "Degraded, humbled" , "Degraded, brought low" , "Humiliated or degraded" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
