Lyric poem found in Hesiod especially (3)
I believe the answer is:
ode
'lyric poem' is the definition.
(I know that ode is a type of lyric poem)
'in hesiod especially' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'ODE' can be found hidden inside 'hesiod especially'.
'found' is the link.
(Other definitions for ode that I've seen before include "poetry" , "A poem celebrating person or event" , "Poem in praise of doe" , "Lyric poem" , "Lines" .)
