Man in Rome regularly toured showing patience, perhaps (6)
I believe the answer is:
virtue
'patience perhaps' is the definition.
(patience is a virtue)
'man in rome regularly toured' is the wordplay.
'man in rome' becomes 'vir' ('man' in Latin).
'regularly' indicates alternate letters (regularly take one letter, leave next etc.).
The alternate letters of 'toured' are 'tue'.
'vir'+'tue'='VIRTUE'
'showing' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for virtue that I've seen before include "Merit; chastity" , "It's said to be its own reward" , "Moral goodness" , "Admirable quality" , "Maybe hope" .)
