Hurry from Athens (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hasten

'hurry' is the definition.
(I know that hurry can be written as hasten)

'from athens' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates an anagram (from the letters).
'athens' with letters rearranged gives 'HASTEN'.

(Other definitions for hasten that I've seen before include "Move quickly" , "Athens (anag.)" , "Speed up" , "dash" , "Hurry along" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
