Muse of erotic poetry (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

erato

'muse of erotic poetry' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for erato that I've seen before include "goddess" , "Greek muse of lyric and love poetry" , "daughter of Zeus" , "Clio's sister" , "Muse of lyric poetry and mime" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and the Universal.
