Lighten, as a burden (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ease

'lighten as a burden' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for ease that I've seen before include "Relief" , "Absence of hardship" , "Soothe" , "Effortlessness" , "Move gently or carefully" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
