Mournful verse (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elegy

'mournful verse' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for elegy that I've seen before include "Mournful song or poem" , "Lines written by poet" , "Song of mourning" , "Mournful work" , "Plaintive poem" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and The Guardian.
