This clue might be a double definition.

'more exalted' is the first definition.
'superior' can be an answer for 'exalted' (thesaurus). I am unsure of the 'more' bit.

'lake' is the second definition.
(I know that Superior is a lake)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for superior that I've seen before include "Snooty" , "Better than, in a higher class" , "One of higher rank" , "Higher in position or rank" , "One of forty across" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
