Include me on return with corpse (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

embody

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

'me on return with corpse' is the wordplay.
'on return' says the letters should be written backwards.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'corpse' becomes 'body' (I've seen this before).
'me' reversed gives 'em'.
'em'+'body'='EMBODY'

(Other definitions for embody that I've seen before include "Express, say ideas, in visible form" , "concretise" , "Give a concrete form to" , "Contain within oneself, incorporate" , "Epitomise" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
