Matthew Arnold's "sweet city with her dreaming spires” (6)
I believe the answer is:
oxford
'matthew' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for oxford that I've seen before include "Rhodes Scholarship university" , "- Blue; - bags" , "Boat Race's Dark Blues" , "Where one may view St John's" , "Material used in shirt" .)
